I have a script to verify a zip code. It works fine except when the field is empty. [code]If I enter too few numbers it works and turns the text red. If I enter the correct numbers it works and sends me to the site. But if I leave the field blank and click, it sends me to the site anyway.
View 3 RepliesI make a textbox on frame one of my movie and embed a font called "Crazyface-Bold" into that textbox.Can I create an empty text field at runtime and assign it a font value of "Crazyface-Bold"? Would that work? The reason I ask is that I only need certain ranges and I don't want to embed a whole font into the library. Creating text fields on the fly is a must though.
View 7 RepliesI have a Flash website. It is Flash (AS2) with a PHP back office. I just found out "undefined" is printed when no text is added to a text field. I need to make that warning/error go away as text fields are sometimes left empty. I did a search in the .fla and found:
Code:
if (_root.description[myi] != undefined)
{
this.textbox.text = _root.description[myi];

How to set focus and insert caret in an empty text field in AS3
View 3 RepliesI want to check if an input text field is empty. I only managed to do it this way;
mytext = textfield.text;
if(mytext != "") .....
The problem with this approach is that I also want to exclude variables with whitespaces.
I tried; if(!isEmpty(mytext) )..... but that didnt work.

I have a dynamic text on the stage which gets updated (shows numbers) when some buttons are pressed.I just need to know if it is possible to show the first dynamic textfield in another dynamic textfield.Lets say the first dynamic textfield called "price" and the second one called "price2". when a button is pressed, the first dynamic textfield "price" will show a number. is it possible to show whatever is shown in the "price" in "price2" ?
View 1 RepliesI'm creating an XML-driven pie chart in AS3 with 2 text boxes in each pie slice. Both text fields are dynamic in the sense that they are populated by the XML doc and then told where to place themselves in the AS3. I've got them both using the same x and y position to place themselves at the moment (which of course puts them right one top of each other), but I'd like to make one of the fields (which acts like a label or a title to the larger number and % text field) place itself in a particular spot around the other text field. The result I'm looking for is to have the smaller "title" text field appear approximately 5 pixels above and left-justified to the larger "percentage" field.
Anyway, here are two sections of code that I've currently got. The first chunk, for the Tags portion, sets the position for the "percentage" text field using a good old x and y method. The second chunk, for Titles, is setting the position for the smaller "title" text.
//evaluate tags
private function evaluateTags():void{
for (s=0; s

is there a way to make it so when you are done putting something into an input field it will automaticly add/subtract from a dynamic field.Dynamic1 + Input = Dynamic2where each time you change the input text it will readd dynamic1 and input show it on dynamic2

View 2 Repliesi followed this tutorial but when i ctrl+enter to test my swf with only 2 layers (action script + dynamic text) it says 32+kb on first frame, while it shows around 2kb in the tutorial. if i delete the dynamic text and put in some shapes with rectangle tool it goes below 1kb, but i need to have some kind of text to indicate the loading percentage.
i know it's only 30kb but i don't want to be adding 30k here and 30k there later on down the line. oh i use flash CS5 btw.

Is it possible to login through flash using one Dynamic Text Field and one Input Text Field and no buttons? If so how? I have seen many tutorials dealing with logging in to PHP using flash but it requires you to make your own php scripts which i am not familiar with. Can some one tell me how to do this with PHPBBs existing php scripts... I want to be able to login thorugh a Input Text Field box and have it verify it in PHP and also be able to register and view other PHP info such as users online and FAQ..
View 2 RepliesI have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?
i have a small flash file with a dynamic text field with instance name: load_txt i have a server... [URL] what i would like to be able to do is when embedding my flash file with the empty text field, put a "?" after the .swf and then put something like "url" with that, in the actionscript i would have it set to go to: [URL] so if i did myserver.com/test.swf?url=ben the flash file would load, and whatever would be in: [URL]would load into the text field in the flash i would already have the url labeled, just need to place the name of the txt file in the .swf? and then it would load properly

I have a flash-file with a movieclip holder (export for actionscript as : holder)In that movieclip I have two textfields, instance names "title" and "content".So when I call the function useHolder(), this should put the movieclip on stage and display "titelinhoud" in the title-field, no ?
function useHolder() {
_root.attachMovie("holder","holder", 725);
_root.holder._x = holder._y = 100;
_root.holder.title.text = "titelinhoud";
}
Now it shows just the background of the movieclip (so that gets loaded on stage), the title-field stays empty (although I embedded the font), only the content-field is showing the dummy content I put in in flash.
I am using buttons with a dynamic textfield and a function to set the label for various different buttons:
public function setLabel(thisLabel:String) {
visibleLabel.text = thisLabel;
}
I set a label for each button:
btn_mc.button1.setLabel("2 | Al Sabkha Bus Station - Al Qusais Police Housing");
I have a dynamic textfield ... myText ... which I would like to use as a page title ... so once the button has been clicked, the dynamic textfield should update with the label of the button clicked.
I am trying to migrate as2 to as3 code.The normal solution to my problem involves using the first parameter of the createEmptyMovieClip() as the name of your movie clip. In several instances I have a dynamic value for this first parameter- so my question is How should I go about doing this?

function someFunction (){
loader_mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("text"+value, value);[code]......
Is it possible to create a completely dynamic menu by creating empty movie clips and loading external images into them? I'm experimenting with this, but it seems there is no way to create rollover/release functions for these dynamically created MC's.
View 6 RepliesI was looking through the posts on how to update dynamic text fields without using a submit button or other method which would cause the entire scene to be called again.
I found exactly the coding I wanted: [URL]
The issue I found is I can't get it to do what I want, which is to add a series of variables together.
I modified the code to this:
Code:
var total:Number;
var num1:Number;
var num2:Number;
[Code]....
It works, but if I type in say " 4 " into the 'num1' input box the total box (dynamic field) becomes a " 4 ". But when I enter in say a " 5 " into the 'num2' input box the total box becomes " 45 " (no " 9 ").
I have a movie clip that is dropped onto my main scene, and I have the AS below as the frame's AS.
The concept is simple: Create dynamic empty movieclips, position them, fill them, make them clickable. The code under "//////////////////////////////////////Code below here doesn't work" isn't working. The code worked fine when attempting to do this on my main scene, but I ran across some interface issues that caused me to put them into anorther MC. I understand that I only included the code for the first button, right now I would like to get at least one working.
Code:
for(var i=0; i<=43; i++){
iDepth = i + 200;
this["z_Brickmc_"+i] = this.createEmptyMovieClip("zBrick"+i+"_mc", iDepth);[code].....
What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial.
View 11 RepliesCurrently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:
Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}
Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.
