ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX] Adding New Html Text To TF Go To Another Line?
Aug 9, 2003
I been making a histroy frame (similar to the one above) where people can see where they were on the site before they came to the new section of the site. I have successfully done this using html text and ASFunction and it works perfectly. The problem is when I add a new html link into the textfield the new entry goes to a second line. I wanted it to appear in one lineie. home > tutorials > easin menu...the script i used to add are as follows:
Code:
on(release){
history.htmlText += "<a href='asfunction: loader,2'> Section 2</a>";

I'm attempting to add line breaks after the code I've included below. I know that I need to add a " " after the line of text, but I haven't had any success.
textField.appendText(""+ bldg.S11[i].Title.text())textField.appendText("Square Footage: "+ bldg.S11[i].SF.text())textField.appendText("Tenant: "+ bldg.S11[i].Tenant.text())textField.appendText("Status: "+ bldg.S11[i].Status.text())

For some reason, when I import my external html to my page, I'm getting extra line breaks. Even if I don't use a <br> in the line, but do a hard return, I'm getting a line break. So that's weird too. As well, it doesn't do the bold (which may be an embedding issue, as I'm using a nonstandard font. I've got the normal font embedded. of coruse, the italics works, which is weird.). What am I doing wrong?I don't think it does anything, but I've set the textbox to "render as HTML," if that effects anything.
My AS code:
ActionScript Code:
dynamic_txt.visible = false;

When using a StyleSheet with html text in a dynamic textfield with embedded fonts line breaks are ignored. It is as if TextField.condenseWhite is being set to true. Essentially the <p> tags are being treated as a <br/> tag. If I don't embed fonts it works fine. Another weird thing is if I add an empty paragraph <p></p> between the first two paragraphs it makes any subsequent paragraph behave correctly.
E.g.
<p>first paragraph text here</p>
<p>second paragraph text here</p>
<p>third paragraph text here</p>
Displays as if there are <br/> between each one.
But
<p>first paragraph text here</p>
<p></p>
<p>second paragraph text here</p>
<p>third paragraph text here</p>
behaves correctly even for the third paragraph.
Here is the code I am working with (using XML as I am dynamically populating the textfield from XML). After reading [URL] I tried the same experiment using a TF drawn in the IDE, the results for each, even though the TextFields are essentially the same are totally different. Updated Code accordingly - just need a TF on stage, called "ideTextField" with font 'Arial'.

I'm importing text from an XML file into a textField. It includes a couple of image links.I'd like the images to display next to each other, but Flash seems to be forcing a linebreak between them.Note I'm using (pound ampersand 10 semicolon - seem to get converted to linebreaks in this forum) to create linebreaks manually - not that it should have any bearing. Have tried separating image tags with nonbreaking space, regular space - also made sure textField was plenty wide enough. No luck.Is this just "the way it is" or is there some way to get my images to display inline?Sample XML:
Code:
<body><![CDATA[Please <a href="mailto:customerservice@domainname.com"><u>contact us</u></a> for any questions, comments or suggestions. We look forward to hearing from you.

I'm having a problem with my imported HTML text - basically when I switch on 'Embed fonts' for a text field, Flash will only ever render one line break, regardless of how many </p> <br /> or whatever other type of line-breaking tag you can imagine are present.What this means is that all my paragraphs are squashed up into one, with no double line-break after the closing </p> tag, as you'd expect.I've used html text with css before and normally experience the opposite problem, whereby whitespace linebreaks in the imported text are rendered, but this problem is a new one on me.

in Flash CS4 I have static text like: Line1 and line2 It's in 9 point Arial Regular as a device font. If I set the line spacing below 3.9 the second line dissappears from the compiled SWF file. It still shows in the FLA file. The same thing happens at 6pt but NOT at 5pt or less.

When a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.
I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.
Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?

I am doing a simple text effect that I found on the internet and modified so that it has a flashing cursor. The text effect uses a symbol that is a dynamic multi lined text box and was given the following code:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
this._visible = 0;
txt = chr(starting);
steps = final-starting;
[Code].....
The problem I am having is trying to make the string "Do you need specific solutions?" run on two lines when the text is generated in the text box. I have already tried the obvious "Do you need specific solutions?"; and "Do you need specific solutions?";

I have an air app that collects live data from a user's action and graphs it.It records data every second and charts it on three different line series from the same array collection.This works out great at first, but it gets worse and worse as time goes by. When it gets close to an hour it's almost unusable.I'd like to be able to add a point to the graph and have flex JUST draw the new point and not invalidate the whole series and redraw it. Is this possible? I'm willing to override something to make this work.My last ditch effort is to take the average of 5 or 10 points and only adding those. This will still work poorly when the user is going for 3 hours or so, but I can't think of a better way.

I have an issue with a specific string variable. It is automatically adding a line break after the text in the string characterName. On this frame I have a input text box with an instance name of name_Input and a submit button that executes the following code.
var characterName:String;
characterName = name_Input.text;
//The next line was a solution I tried for this problem but it doesn't work

I'm importing html in Flash 8 and the dynamic text box won't see the text in a paragraph as one single string. Wherever there's a line break in the external text file (not using html tags), it also shows that break in flash unlike a regular html page which ignores these line breaks. I don't even need to use the <br> tag to make an intentional line break.

I have a TextField that uses a stylesheet and gets its text as htmlText. That text is read from an *.xml file with the neccessary CDATA tag. The htmlText is read correctly (I have a debug output to check that), and when displaying the .text attribute, it shows line breaks as expected. multiline, wordwrap and condenseWhite are enabled. No AutoSizing is done, instead I set width and height of the field manually.
But the text it actually shows on the screen is all shown in one line, with multiple lines being drawn in the same line. It also seems to interpret the html correctly, as the words with '<b></b>' around them are bold. Only the line breaks are not working. The height can't be the problem as I set it manually to a value high enough, and debug output shows that it really has that height.
This only happens when viewing the *.swf online and only with empty cache. When I press F5 in the window, the TextField works as intended. So it works offline and when it has already been loaded.
But the creation, scaling of the TextField and filling the TextField with text is all done in the same function, without any breaks so I really don't know how the cache could possibly affect this.

I have been given an .swf file that needs to be added to an HTML page - no problem. That file then needs to link to another site. Is this something that needs to be added to the file before it is loaded onto a website?
I've seen the following code provided in other threads, but either it is meant to be used when creating the file, or I'm not using it correctly when I try adding it to my .asp page.
on (release) {
getURL ("<URL here>", "_blank");
}
If I'm not trying to do something impossible, edit the code below to make this file link:
<html>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff" TEXT="#000000" marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 rightmargin=0 id=all>
