ActionScript 2.0 :: Displaying XML Text As HTML?

Apr 13, 2011

I'm loading text into a text field from an XML file. I'm creating a very simple CMS for someone's website and, if they put in a link I want it to show up on the site. I remember, years ago, being able to simply display XML as HTML, so when inserting.
HTML Code:
<a href="#">A Link</a>
into mytextfield.text, an html-esque link would actually show up in the .swf. Of course now I can't find it anywhere.

Displaying Text As HTML In The UIscrollbar Component

Sep 9, 2009

I have a window on my Flash stage that has some scrollable copy in it.  The problem is, I can't seem to have any formatting for the text ... if I select a word or two to make bold, it all turns bold.  I gather I need to use the "Display Text as HTML" checkbox and then paste in some HTML formatted text but this doesn't seem to work.  I searched this forum and found that others were designating "htmlText" in Actionscript instead of just "text" ... that didn't work either.  I probably just did it wrong, or maybe it's becuase I'm using the UI component "UIscrollBar" for it's scrolling of the text.

Is there anything else I need to do to be able to format some text with strong tags and maybe some href links?
 
I have my properties inspector with the following check marks:

Display as HTML
Multiline
Dynamic Text

I think it's the way I calculate the number of lines in the string... How would I calculate the amount of lines using rich text?

Professional :: TLF Text Direction - Not Displaying The Text Icon Cursor And Don't Allow To Insert Text Inside

Aug 28, 2011

When I create a TLF text area that is editable at runtime (which means that it can get a user input at runtime) I set the text direction to the 'right-to-left' definition in both the 'container and flow' and the 'paragraph' sections and set the language for Arabic or Hebrew at the 'locale' setting. I also set the text alignment to the 'align to start' mode. Now at runtime there's a stange thing. When I try to click with the mouse cursor on the editable TLF text-box, it's not displaying the text icon cursor and don't allow me to insert text inside.

But when I move my mouse cursor over the right side of the editable TLF text box, it change his appearance to the familiar text cursor which indicate that if you click here you will be able to insert text input inside. So my problem is how can I make it that only when I will hover over the TLF text box itself, the mouse cursor will be changed to text cursor icon and when I will hover beside its right side, it will remain at the normal cursor mode.

Html :: IE 8 Flash Not Displaying?

Dec 21, 2010

I'm using flash in a few of my websites for displaying a slideshow. This is the code I use in splendor-bg.com :

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" width="740" height="450" id="tech" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />

[Code]....

I can see it on my computer in internet explorer just fine (I must have installed something that is needed, or set up IE in some way, I guess).. but its not working on quite a few other computers I've tested it on - this is what they see:

Either a message of something that needs to be installed should be shown to the user, or something in the code itself..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Displaying Swf - Embed Into Html?

Apr 28, 2011

I have several swf's and I can embed them within html without problem. However, one swf is causing me problems. This swf has an animation on the stage as a preloader. The rest of the swf is then completely run through an external as3 class. The as3 class loads an xml file and prepares the images. When its complete, it removes the loader removeChild(preloader); (the original animation which was displaying). If I run the swf on my computer, everything works great. As soon as I embed it, all that happens is the preloader animation constantly plays, and it never gets to the point to display the images. Is there something I need to do when I embed this swf into html to get it to work properly?

HTML Is Displaying Oddly When Flash Is Present?

Sep 11, 2010

The site I'm making uses a tabbed navigation and MooTools to fade the pages in and out. One of the pages has a Flash player embedded on it, and all of the others consist of pure HTML. The problem occurs on the HTML pages -- somehow the Flash player is causing the HTML pages to display oddly. Vertical borders and text will be jagged in the same locations of the top and bottom of the player.!

Sep 29, 2008

I'm trying to retrieve values that are embedded in the object tag on the HTML page. Is this possible? I've been trying to find how to do this, but all hits point out to how to embed flash in HTML and rarely do I find on which tells me how to retrieve data from HTML into flash.

Example:

Code:

How can I simply trace the value in flash??? Just for now, all I want to know is if I make a dynamic text box in flash, can it display the name of the .swf by reading the param?

IDE :: Display Dynamic Text When The Instance Name Of The Text Box To Do The Displaying Is Dynamically Stored Within A Variable?

There's a movieclip, lets call it myMovieClip. Inside this movieclip there is a dynamic text box, lets call this one myText. Now to change the text within this text box that is embedded in a movieclip, it's simply:

However, what if there is a variable, called myVariable that stores the instance name of the text box. With only one text box I know it's pointless, but for the sake of example, lets leave it simple. So, suddenly the code looks like:

Professional :: Dynamic Text Field Not Displaying Text Even When Font Is Embedded?

Jan 16, 2011

So, I have some basic actionscript code.  It's a legacy site, so I'm using AS2.  The line of code simply does this:
 
myField.text = "some text"
 
So, I select the text field on the stage, then ensure the font is embedded.  All the glyphs I want are checked, but then when I compile and test, the fonts don't show up when the code is executed.  Instead, the textfield is blank!  What happened?!  Where did the text go?
 
I should mention that the .swf which I compile is loaded into another parent .swf during runtime.  If that parent .swf does not contain embedded fonts, is that why it's broken?

Actionscript :: Flash Displaying Weird Text In A Dynamic Text Field?

Mar 2, 2011

I am working in Flash CS5 and I have placed a text field (dynamic, classic text) on the stage. I am accessing it through Actionscript on the same frame like this:

var ct:TextField = TextField(getChildByName("Temperature"));
ct.text = "Hello world";

What ACTUALLY appears is this: So... The H, Ls, and D are gone. Mysteriously. Without warning. I am sitting here utterly confused. Is this just me?

PS. The text field is set to Myriad Pro Bold, a font on my computer, so it isn't like it's a font problem.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Displaying Variable As Text In Dynamic Text Field?

May 24, 2010

This should be basic enough but I'm having trouble troubleshooting it

var instrument:MovieClip=banjo;
instrument_txt.text="The " + String(instrument)+ " has been selected!";

I wanted this to result in dynamic text field displaying

"The banjo has been selected!" but it results in "The [Object MovieClip] has been selected!".

Is String(var) wrong command to use? The only reason I could think why it's not working is, that the variable has been stated as 'MovieClip' instead of Number or Text. What can be done in the case of MovieClip if this is correct?

P.S I'm wondering if there're rules on asking questions on this board... I've asked two for today already and they would be considered pretty 'basic' ones to professionals / experienced users on this board >_<

For ex - See below imageNow , as you can see, second line in the text file starts right where first line ends.But flash doesn't display it like that. I have hundreds of lines and in most cases flash spaces consumes less space then a text file. The font in both text field in Flash and notpad is to Arial so the font shouldn't be a problem.

ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField And TextArea Component Are Very Limited In Displaying And Formatting HTML Pages

Mar 25, 2009

i'm working on a game project and i got some trouble with displaying stuff in the game Launcher. everything is in AS3. I'm actually looking to achieve almost the same results as the World of Warcraft launcher with a news section. the way i think to work it is that i create either a textArea component or a textfield and display html page in it. This html page could contain text, image and flash SWF.

but here's the problem, textField and textArea component are very limited in displaying and formating HTML pages. So i don't know if i should continue to search and try developping this way or find another way for displaying dynamic stuff that can be easily updated.
