ActionScript 2.0 :: For Loops - Displays Whatever Text From The Mc That Is Currently Open In Admin Area
Apr 18, 2007
i have about 25 slides (or MC's) and they contain dynamic text fields. I have an admin area setup where i can change the content in that dynamic text field from within my admin area. Now my problem starts rather than writting 50 functions or whatever per MC as there might be more at certain stages or less.
I'm trying to figure out the best way to write a loop which displays whatever text from the mc that is currently open in my admin area so i can edit it...(i have this working for one only) that's why i was thinking a for loop would do the trick.

Here's the deal: I am working on a site that provides information for art buyers. Pricing, where to buy and things like that. The page is done in php, mysql, and some jQuery here and there.One of the things they want to implement is a live stream of auctions. What they want is something like this:Where on the left you'd see the stream -instead of the black block- and on the right, the image of the work that is currently being sold, with the artist name, title and price. That's what The image on the left should change as the auction progresses.What I need is to have and option in the admin area on the page, where the administrator can select the image to display. So, to implement this, I would need to:Connect to the database to get the information: pictures, data, etc.
Loop trough the record to get a list. From that list, the user will select the image he wants shown on the webpage.Have the admin area send the image to be displayed to the page, and have the page change it dynamically, without the user having to refresh the page.The first two points are no problem, what I'm not quite sure how to do is the third one. Flash? Some from of Javascript? I leaning towards flash, but anything will do. I'm sure what I'm asking for is nothing that hasn't been done before, but my google-fu has failed me on this one. I don't need copy and paste code, if you could point me to a tutorial on this, or the basics tools I'd need, that's great.

I would like to first add the xml to my flash. Fine I can do this.But I have a number of buttons, where when I click say CW1, i get the information from the XML file with a node of CW1. I have all the xml set up fine.As I have about eight different postcode types.
ST, CW, CH, TF, WV, WS, DE, SK, SY, and each of these may have numbers that follow, i.e ST1, ST2, ST3 and so forth.
So I can only assume that the postal area could be the main nodes, and the numbers inside the child nodes, am I right thus far.o how can i load the area of the xml file into my text area on mouse click, pulling the information relating.

I need to put together an editable text area that has a custom caret (cursor) which is different from the default blinking vertical line. Is the caret a "skinnable" property of text input? note that I am not asking about the mouse pointer cursor which can be set using the CursorManager.

I'm working on a Flash presentation, and I have a lot of text pages with buttons and movie clips on. The problem I have is that all subheads are set to size 35pt using Helvetica Neue Heavy, but on a couple of the pages a random subhead is displaying a lot larger than 35pt (I'd say 50pt) but it is definitely set to size 35pt in the Character palette. I have no idea why this is happening and it's driving me mad.

The cursor is blinking in the correct field but it will not allow any text to be typed into the field. Is there something in the code that is causing this problem?
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;

I'm making a flash site that displays random quotes in a dynamic text box... well, I wish I could do that but I really don't know how :S. I tried searching in the forums but the word "quote" is too popular and I only get random movement, random animation etc.

The first questions was a calculation with the correct answer 5 or five. I have created an input text box with a variable ans1. Instance for the input text is Q1Input. I made a button with the following button script:
on (release, keypress "<Enter>") {
if (ans1 eq "5" or ans1 eq "five") {
gotoAndPlay(2);
[Code].....
Typing a correct answer gets me to a wrong message (frame 3) not correct (frame 2). When I trace(ans1) it seems that the input text box is passing teh formatting data with the value thus giveing me WRONG.

Whenever I test or publish a CS5 movie that uses TLF text (no matter which font), the .swf displays all elements but the text. There's simply nothing there. I'm on a mac with Snow Leopard, 10.6.7. This only happens as soon as I pass the 1000 frame limit (before, everything displays fine). Reaching wit's end here. Anyone know what causes this, and more specifically, how to solve it?

I have added a menu to my game, and now certain text for the game does not appear unless I quickly double click the text field. Everything non-text works. The Sidebar is an instance of Sidebar movieclip which has two text fields that I added in the flash IDE, both with correct instance names. I have embedded my fonts, and tracing the text of the textField gives the correct number, without any return lines or whitespaces. The "double click shows text" is only for my countdown time.
My other score text field does not display no matter what, not even the text I set in the flash IDE. The only thing I can think of why is maybe flash stops rendering it because I have another menu movieclip that I set the alpha to 0 on stage that might overlay the text fields, however removing the menu movieclip does not fix the problem. Right clicking on the text field, select all, copy, paste gives the correct number.
Here's the fla + as files with only the code for the text fields: [URL]

I am new to AS3 and trying to figure out how to do something. I want to have a block of text that displays a discrete name as one mouses over several buttons. EG: As one mouses over button 1 the text box displays the text "Button One" and goes blank on RollOut. On rolling over Button 2 that same text box displays "Button Two" etc.
I am a noob and really don't even know what tutorials to search for to do this, 'cause I don't know what to call this function.

The situation is this: Im trying to make a pre-loader that displays the load amount in text as a % and has a loading bar that will only load when the movie loads. When the movie is fully loaded the loading bar fill be full and it will display 100%, when the movie is half full it will be 50% and the bar will only be half way across. If I wanted to make the loading bar a specific width how would I do it?? At the moment the bar only seams to want to be 100 wide. The script im using so far is:

I have a input text field where you type in a number 1 - 10 and hit submit. depending on what number you type it will populate that many text inputs fields through a for-loop. I want to be able to fill out all the populated input fields and hit a submit button, and trace back all the values . right now i can only get it to trace back the last text input field value.

I've hit a brick wall here. I have a Flash file that displays fine in IE. It also displays fine when ran as a SWF. However, in FireFox, it does not display my scroller. I developed the Scroller component dynamically... everything is drawn from scratch, no library movieClips, etc. I'm starting to think that could be the cause? I've tried many different things:

I've tried many different things: Changed the HTML code to bare bones embedding code.Recompiled in Flex.... same result!Tested on another computer... it worked fine! However, I tested on another computer with FireFox... same problem.
It's so weird.I seperated the Image Slide show component from the Scroller... the scroller had the same effect... didn't display in FF.Played around with WmodeChecked my code for addChild problems, visibilty, alpha properties... nothing out of the ordinary.Asked God.Drank some Gin.Took a break and came back to it.I've reseached Google and the most I could come up with is to compile using FP10. It is FP10. I'm using CS3 and FlashDevelop. When I right click on my Flash file, it does indeed display FP10. Same with Flex.

I am making a flash movie, using text moving across the screen in semi transparency, sort of as a background. In the center is a white box, and content within that box. The semi transparent text scrolls back and forth throughout the movie. But when the movie loops back to the beginning , the white box and content within it vanish for a second...then reappear as the movie begins again. I don't want that microsecond vanish to happen but I don't know how to prevent it.
