ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Not Reading HTML File Properly
Sep 30, 2010
Basically, I have alot of text that needs to contain underlines and all that good formatting stuff that flash text can't do. So I created a dynamic scrolling text box, loaded in an external txt document containing all the right HTML tags for flash. But for some reason the flash cuts off the text. It won't show all the text I have. I noticed that it seems to be cutting it off in SOME (not all) areas where I have a hyperlink.

I am trying to import an xml file with multiple sections of HTML. It looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<htmlcontent>
<application>
<title>Site Deployment</title>
[Code].....
Whenever flash sees an html tag such as <p> or <img src=""> it stops reading the xml file at that point. I currently have it working with each application in its own xml file, but that is messy and I would rather it all be in one place.

it is my first time reading in XML files into my Flash project. I have it working to an extent, as it will read in the file correctly and all that, and I though that I was finally ready to publish it. I copied all of the concerned files over to my server, and it will work perfectly fine when I view the flash from the uploaded link directly (right on my server in the folder I created it in).
My problem arises when I try to publish my project on another website, by just embedding the .swf directly. The project works perfectly until I click the tab that will read in the XML file, at that point it will just hang and not load it in properly. Since it was my first time using XML, I played around with a template a bit to learn it. Anyway, here is what I put (Well, example of what I put)
Code:
flashmo_page1.load_xml("http://mywebsite123456.com/directory/flash/flashmo_197_page_1.xml");
I though that linking directly to my file on my website would make it work, but it still hangs.

writing actionScript code. I'm not an actionScript developer and have been trying to get this to work for hours.The requirement is a script that receives a parameter via javascript. The parameter is a url for a remote html web page.The script needs to load the contents of that html page into a string variable and then call a javascript function passing it the html as parameter.

How can I have Flash reading XML ignore white spaces that would be ignored in HTML?
[Code]...
I don't want the spaces or the new lines that show in the text to show in Flash. In HTML there is no new line character between the two lines either.

I turn to you for help, dear sweet Kirupa Forumites. First, let me explain the problem: I have a flash file reading an external text file for the content. Everything works perfectly for nearly everyone - you click a menu button, and the content text comes up fine. However, a couple of people have found that the text shows up as "undefined". I have checked the player versions of the people where it doesn't work, and it is the same as for those where it does work, so that ain't the problem.
I don't understand why it works perfectly for nearly everyone, but a small number of people have this "undefined" text problem. It seems to be a problem with loading the external text file, but I don't know why. I have a main flash movie, and load the text in the first frame, using the following:
var my_content = new LoadVars();
my_content.load("content.txt");
my_content.onLoad = function(success){
if (success){
[Code]...
I then have a couple of dynamic text boxes in the main movie - one called ErrorText (for displaying an error message to the user) and one called ContentText (for displaying the content). I use an external menu swf which jumps to a specific frame in the main movie, depending on which button is clicked. Actionscript on the main movie frame for the first button does the following, with the other frames similarly configured:
ContentText.htmlText = my_content.content1;
stop();
My external text file is properly configured (content1=blah blah&content2=other blah blah) etc.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can solve this particular weird problem??

I'm creating a banner for my website from Flash, and I'm using Action Script to read information from a file to put that info on the banner
Now this seems to work fine for local files. But the file will not be on the same server as the script and banner.. (personal Reasons).
How can I read this remote text file? this text files location would be something like: [URL] this file is freely readable for anyone..

I am having a nightmare using CSS to style HTML within a dynamic textfield in my flash doc. From what i now understand after much trial and error and reading online, CSS doesn't even work properly in flash even for the tags that it does understand (which are few and far between anyway). For some reason my layout is getting completely screwed up in certain scenarios (predominantly when there are images present too) when i hover over links (which are styled in an external CSS file). If i remove the external CSS styling (which only contains the following simple code):
a:link {text-decoration: none;}
a:active {text-decoration: none;}
a:visited {text-decoration: none;}[code]....
Then everything works fine (but no links are underlined as standard or on hover). Does anyone know of any way to style the links without using an external CSS file (all i want to do is have no underline as standard and then underline them on hover). As this is from user input into a text editor I cannot place these links manually on the page in flash as they could be anywhere, I need a way of parsing the HTML and then displaying it accordingly.

...Anyway. Since college happened, I'm used to C++ storing data in .txt files and reading in from there. I'm trying to make a monopoly remake for something to do while Christmas comes, and I wanted to store all the card information somewhere. I thought of storing it in some sort of "Information Class" or perhaps just a text file.

Is it possible to read HTML headers in AS3? The header contains the following meta tag:
Code:
<meta name="language" content="en-GB" scheme="rfc1766" />
The idea is to extract
Code:
content="en-GB"
into a variable (to control the language in the swf).

I was wondering if anyone has came up with a way to float html elements, with some content, over .swf without triggering any flash events.
In my case the problem is I have flash map, and drop down menu on top of it.
I simplified this into the following example:
[URL]
If you mouseover any elements in gray box, you will see that stuff behind it, in a flash file, triggers hover effects.
