ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 : Checking InputText For Certain Characters?
Mar 13, 2009
I have a script here that traces "false" if the textfield holds an even number of < and >.. If not it traces "false". For example (hello<>world<) is an uneven number of tags... Anyway, if its even when i test it, it returns "false", then at the same runtime, i try uneven, it returns "true" and again, at same runtime have an even number, it still returns "true"... So after theres been "true", theres no way back.
Code:
myBtn.onRelease = function(){
checkForTags();
trace(check_complete);
[code]....

Im basically loading an xml file to flash, the xml file contains the following characters: these characters do not show up correctly, instead they appear like so (as entity references): I tried replacing the illegal xml characters using the equivalent entity references, but still i get the same problem.You can find my files in attachments (contains an .fla .swf and xml file.).

I'm working on a site in which I have actionscript loading a blog from a php file. It doesnt seem to want to show the or other characters with accents, even though I have embedded those characters in the dynamic text field. here is the isolated text box: [URL]
and here is the php file it is loading from: [URL] Notice the diference? I wrote Espana once and the second time Reino de Espaa, which shows up in php but not in flash. My php is using "iso-8859-1" characters and I think I need to change it to unicode? When I load the text from a unicode txt file all the special characters show up. But I'm not sure how to do this or even exactly what unicode is.

A have a big chunk of dynamic text (from a db). From this text i am making a .pdf. So i would like to limit the amount of outputted text as a page can run out of space.
I have tried to do it with search and replace. But the problem is that it counts only characters instead of characters in combination with whitespace and the number of lines.
There is space for 100 characters/spaces on each line, and a total of 38 lines on one page.
So i am thinking of something like this: * count all new lines represented by
* count all characters/whitespaces dived to the number of lines to check if this fits the number of (as it uses wordwap)
Anyone with bright ideas on how to approach this?
(btw. TextField.maxChars will not work as it's dynamic text...)

I was wondering if anyone knows wether it's possible to create variables from text inside an inputText.Example -> if I put the text "bDead = false" inside an inputBox, and I press some button, the variable bDead is created and initialized with "false".I tried loadVariables with the box.text as a parameter, but I guess it expects a link to some file instead of a text...

I'd like just to post something quickly that is breaking my mind.... I prefer not attach any code cause what I have is quite not working anyway....-How can I export a few InputText fields (kinda a form) into a TXT file (*.txt).- Is maybe way more easier export into XML file?- The exported file is meant to use with copy/paste that's why I prefer a TXT file (no additional characters or variables, etc that would complicate the usage of the exported file)I'm not an experience coder or designer just intermediate skills, but I'm having many difficulties

1) Each field in the form only allows 3 characters and no special characters such as @ _ ! . , etc... 2) When the user goes to the next field in the form, the previous field appears blank but the when clicking on that again, the original text appears. 3) When submitting the form, it just keeps saying "in progress" and never shows the confirmation text nor does the email get sent. There is an HTML file included with this form but I am not sure if I need to put that in as I have embedded this form into an SWF file so I don't think I need that code but let me know if I am wrong about this. I am posting both the AS code and PHP code below..

I'm a beginner in AS3. I need to pass the inputtext value to text area, with a button. I know is a simple tasks but I'm really desperate cause I just test several ways, including external classes without results. With this code, I can get the value of the button, but I need to get the input text field userName. I suppose that I need to pass the value of input text to String, but I don't how!
I post my code here:
import fl.controls.Button;
import fl.controls.TextInput;
import fl.events.*;
import fl.controls.Label;
import fl.controls.Slider;
import fl.events.SliderEvent;

I'm using AS3 on timeline. There are four input text boxes (input_txt, input_txt1..) and one dynamic text (mess_txt). When user types answers on input text boxes, dynamic text should change to either correct or incorrect.
Dynamic text only changes when the last input text box changes text. why don't the others change as well? I have tried putting the else conditional in different places without success. [code]...

I make a photo gallery. I populate the images (660 in total) by using push.Array I want to make an inputText area so everyone will be able to jump to photo number whichever they please. Example, if you type 258 in the inputdataText, photo258.jpg will load to the stage.
Below is the script my_ti is the instance for my text input components (using AS 2.0 and Flash player 6, CS 3)fotoke is the instance for my dynamic text. It tells the users which photo they're currently seeing.
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("photo",this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.pathToPics = "data/images/";
this.fadeSpeed = 7;

On this page there is a login form at the bottom left.
1) Type some text in the username field.
2) Drag-Select this text (from right to left) so that it is highlighted - but DO NOT release the mouse over the swf - keep dragging off of the swf (to the left of the text field).
3) Now move your mouse across the swf and back out to the left again...and you will see that the swf thinks you have never released the mouse.
It seems obvious that a swf running in Firefox or Safari is not detecting "onRelease" events outside of the swf (while IE Does this just fine).My only thought is to capture onRelease events from js and pass into the swf...but jeez - what a pain for something so simple....for something that should just work.

I have an InputText field for users to submit information to me. I want to have the text field display some default text (Ex. Type E-Mail Here) and then when the field is clicked, the text will be cleared. After a long time of searching a found a solution that works perfectly....using ActionScript 2.0. Unfortunately my site is in 3.0 therefore I cannot use this code. For the example I want my default text to be "Type E-Mail Here", and the InputText Instance Name will be "inputTxt"
Here is the 2.0 ActionScript Code:
inputTxt.textField = "Type E-Mail Here..."
inputTxt.onSetFocus = function() {
inputTxt.textField = "" };
inputTxt.onKillFocus = function() {
inputTxt.textField = "Type E-Mail Here..."
};
When using this code in AS3, I get the error code "1120: Access of undefined property inputTxt". What do I need to make this code work in AS3?

I have a gallery loading jpegs from an xml file into a mc called mainPicArea, on frame 5. I have other content on frames 1,2,3,4,6,7.
I want to run an if statement to check whether mainPicAreaexists and if it does, then run a removeChild(mainPicArea), and if not do nothing.
[AS]
if (MovieClip.mainPicArea){
trace("exists");
//removeChild(mainPicArea);
[code]....
When I test, it comes back with the trace "doesent exist", even though it does exist.

I must admit I have struggled with this thing for a bit. It seems simple but for whatever reason I can't get it to work. I just want to make something move in AS 3 right now, and so far I've tried puzzling together two different tutorials, but both of them are missing either some source files or further explanation.
Anyway, here is the code (The bit I am having problems with)
Code:
//event listener checks for key presses
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkkey);
//Create keyHandler function
[Code].....
The problem is the checkkey function in the update function. If I leave the parenthesis empty it tells me it needs an argument, if I leave it like that it tells me I need a right paren before colon.
