ActionScript 2.0 :: [CS4] Input Text Won't Validate If 3 Or 4 In Hundredths Place
Oct 20, 2009
I'm working on a program that requires a random number between 320-370 to be generated. For the sake of this post, let's say the result is 345 (Figure A). That number is then divided by 1,000, which gives me 0.345, then the thousandths spot is removed via a *100--> round --> /100 technique, leaving 0.35 (Figure B). So, the whole point of generating these numbers is that they will later be used to evaluate what a user has entered into two input text boxes. If the number entered into Input Text A matches Figure A, correct, and if the number entered into Input Text B matches Figure B, correct.
Everything works perfectly EXCEPT when Figure B ends with the number 3 or 4 in the hundredths position. The Input Text B won't evaluate correctly, and I can't quite make sense of it. So, if Figure A is 331, Figure B becomes .33. User enters .33 into Input Text B, and it absolutely will not evaluate correctly. However, all other numbers in the hundredths spot seems to work fine.
In actionscript 3, I have a user enter a number into a field and this field is supposed to be for a cash value. How do I make it so that if for some reason they put say 20.956, it would round up to 20.96?
I have a doubt in flash, i have a input text field with the text "search..." if i click on the input text field the word " search...." should not be visible. It is quite same as search bar in Flash Kit website , it is having the word "Search Flash Kit" but when the user click on the text field the word get disappear.

I have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:
I need to place a limit on my user input field. In this case I want one of the user input field to have a range of 0-10 and the other one to have a range of 0-59. So far all I have been able to do is this: mins_input.restrict = "0-9"; mins_input.maxChars=2; The result is my user can only input numbers but the numbers have a range up till 99! How do I put the results of my input field into my actionscript? I'm making a timer with an input interface.

I'm trying to extend the text input that comes in flex to support an icon, just like mac os x search text input has a grey circle aligned to the right, the text input has a addChild method, but it didn't work for me.
the last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code: // function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {
I have 2 keyframes on my timeline.The first keyframe has an input text field (instance name: inputTxt) and a button (instance name: btnTester).When the user clicks the button it takes them to the second keyframe where their text should be displayed in a dynamic text box (instance name: txtBox).I get a null value in keyframe 2.
i created an input text box that puts the users input into a global variable, but when i test it it gives me not only what i have typed in but all the html formatting for the font that my input text box has on it.I only want the text that i have typed in to go into the variable but the wackload of html is going in there too. ive tried a few different things, rewriting my code, recreating the text box, changing settings, dont know what im missing.
I'm trying to build a fahrenheit to celsius convertor in AS3. How can I test to see whether what is input into a text input box (flash component) is not a number? This isn't correct but you can get an idea of what i'm trying to do:
if (celsius_txt.text == NaN || fahrenheit_txt.text == NaN) { //do something; }
i have an one input text box, first i type text into it and press space bar at this it will become empty and ready to accept next input from starting position, i make the text box empty by
textbox.text = "";
but the cursor not set to initial position in text box it consider "" as "space" and cursor will display after one space only, i need that cursor again move to starting position..
Using AS3 to create a basic number guessing game but for some reason the input text field won't accept text input. I can't figure out which piece of code is causing the problem and it's driving me nuts considering it's from a tutorial.
This code corresponds to a quiz question where the correct answer is either blue or green. I get the #1009 error if I input "blue". The answer "green" seems to work ok. What's wrong with my code? Is there a better way to make is so more than one answer works? Something like "blue" or "green" or "otheranswer", etc..?
I need to put together an editable text area that has a custom caret (cursor) which is different from the default blinking vertical line. Is the caret a "skinnable" property of text input? note that I am not asking about the mouse pointer cursor which can be set using the CursorManager.
Trying to format input text fields using format buttons in Actionscript has been challenging. I've been able to put some pieces together, however I am still missing some things. Here's my code:
Code: function selectText() { startSelect = Selection.getBeginIndex();[code].........
I need the ability to click the Bold button and it bolds or unbolds at the cursor so if I hit the bold button what I type from that point on will be bold until I hit the button again and then it goes back to regular. I am able to change it to bold or unbold by selecting the text and clicking the button but I also need to do it without selecting.
I have 4 dynamic text boxes which duplicates the text from a main input text box. How do I write a code to make visible only the dynamic text box I want when clicked it's check box.What is the CODE to make each "DYNAMIC TEXTBOX" visible when clicked on it's checkbox?
How to make this smoke effect work without mouse input. I am trying to have it spill from the end of a cannon, & my attempts to modify the position have resulted in all my bitmaps shifting. I changed this doTrail(_root, _xmouse, _ymouse, currentBitmap); To this doTrail(_root, _x=80, _y=100, currentBitmap); [Code] .....
I'm working on someone's Flash project and my task is to add roll over text to all the buttons in the project. The problem is I can't use the actual buttons because the are underneath some other animation. What I want to do is to add roll over text using the coordinates of the button but not the actual button.
i am trying to make a simple form but when i place a textInput box after a Label it comes in the next line..how do i make the text input box be placed besides the Label?
I just noticed that when you place a text field on the stage using code:
Code: var texter:TextField = new TextField(); texter.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat("Impact", 68, 0xffffff); texter.text = "890";
[code]....
It does not look the same as a text field that I placed on the stage in the Flash editer. The text created by code has very harsh edges, but the other text has smooth edges. How can I get my code TextField to look like the editor Text Field?
