I have two .swf flash 5 movies and on one of them it has two input boxes which for the sake of easyness we'll call....
Inputbox1
Inputbox2
Is there any way that on another .swf file i can recall what the user put in any of the Inputboxes and then if they entered "something" then it would go to a frame.
Setting variables. Have a look at the file. Current height and width are both set at 200. I dont think i got the scripting right, or it may be in the wrong place.

View 4 RepliesI've had a site running for a few months that takes fourinput text boxes (name, e-mail, subject and message) and posts thevalues to an ASP page which composes an e-mail with a CDO.Messagecommand. For some reason (nothing has been changed in the files or onthe server), it stopped working and I've traced it down to Flashpassing Input Text Box Formatting information along WITH theariable.Can anyone explain what's happened and how to correct it?For example, in my form I've set all the name, e-mail andmessage to static text and let the Subject variable be passed andin the e-mail subject line, I get this:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P
ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><FONT FACE="American Typewriter" SIZE="12"
COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0"

I have a text input field. When I press on it I'd like something to happen. But it doesn't seem like I can target the input field like this.
myTextInputFieldName.onPress = function {
do something
}
I tried putting it inside another movieclip (which I can target), but then the text input cursor goes away and I can no longer access the input text box. I know there is probably a simple solution but I can't figure it out.
I'm trying to do some slightly more complex and strange things with input boxes say you had some writing in an input box and you wanted to find out what characters were before the flashing cursor thing (looks like "|").
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with Input Text boxes within an exported swf. The font (Arial Narrow) has been embedded via Text > Font Embedding (Uppercase, Lowercase, Numerals, and Puncuation checked); but, upon export, certain characters do not register (specifically j, q. u, z, 8, and 9) or automatically take one case or the other (B, M, W, and X are always Uppercase; while k always appears as Lowercase).
View 1 RepliesI'm stumped on this problem and can't seem to figure it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Basically I'm building a large calculator that adds over 100 input boxes. I've got it working except for the fact that if a user misses inputing a number into one of the input boxes it does not work anymore. I've tired lots of things to no avail. I just want to add the input boxes and skip those where the user did not enter any information (does not apply to them)
Here is my code.
on (press){
ReceptionTotal = Number(LocationFee) + Number(Caterer) + Number(ToastingGlasses) + Number(SecurityFee) + Number(BarPackage) + Number(WeddingCake) + Number(FoodHors) + Number(Baker) + Number(BartentingFee) + Number(CakeKnife) + Number(Servers) + Number(Flatware) + Number(Dinnerwear) + Number(Flatware) + Number(TableLinens) + Number(ChairsCovers) + Number(Glasswear) + Number(Tent) + Number(Napkins) + Number(Childcare) + Number(DanceFloor) + Number(ServingStaff) + Number(Lanterns) + Number(Heaters) + Number(Restrooms);
}
each input box has a variable name assigned to it as indicated above. I've tired setting the variables to 0, tried if statements don't know how to skip one of the above variables when no number is entered.
I have an empty SWF that's sole purpose is to call loadMovieNum and start the project. Each loaded movie has a few variables defined within them - unique to those loaded SWFs. Instead of declaring all the variables in each SWF can I declare all of them in one place, in the first frame of the empty loader it all starts from? I'm thinking I can then declare a variable which each loaded movie can increment as needed for me.
View 2 RepliesI need some input text to read the same in both a dynamic and input text field, but I need the input text field to be left-aligned with a smaller font size than the dynamic text field. I tried left-aligining the input text field in Flash, and it just converted it back when I tested the movie. I have given both fields the same variable. How can I accomplish this?
View 11 RepliesI have four text input boxes, and I need to be able to script it so that when the "Done" button is pushed each of the boxes are checked for the right input. I've tried two different methods, neither of which work or the answer is automatically correct.
View 3 Repliesi was hoping that someone might have an answer to my question. is there ANY way to dynamically change the kerning of an input box? i'd like to give users the ability to modify the kerning of my .swf file. i know flash allows you to change properties like font size, colour, alignment, etc., but i can't find a way to change the kerning property. i don't even think one exists for them. so is there any kind of work around to this?also, is there any reason why i can't use negative values for leading for the input box? it only allows me to use positive numbers when i try to change it dynamically.

View 2 RepliesI have a few textAreas (input fields) in a form.When I click on the Tab key, the focus shifts to the textArea. And along with this, a green outline comes around the textArea... How can I avoid the textArea outline color? I guess there must be a piece of AS out there which would help, it's just I did not find it and Official Docs won't say much about it.it does not happen so if compiled the movie under AS 1.0. It only has this behaviour when published with AS 2.0 (and perhaps AS 3.0 donno).
View 8 RepliesI am willing to use Macromedia Flash this year to make my physics project. Well, its going to be force resultant calculator. for ones dont know how it gets counted.
Well, I'll make 4 input text boxes, and a button in the middle. 1 text boxin the north, (power effect the body from the north) one on the south, one on the east and one on the west.(I've done that part).
Then, ill need it to subtract the north - south and east - west on(release), and display that on a dynamic box called Fx (east - west) and another called FY (north - south) Finally, I'll need it fethagorth the Fx and FY to give me the final force resultant. I've done the 4 input boxes and a button, I'll still need someone gimme the action script for subtraction and fethagorth (or atleast teach me how to do it).
I want to be able to add the sum of 3 input text boxes and have the total be displayed in another text box. figure I set a variable and do something along the lines of: Number = "_root.input1 + _root.input2 + _root.input3";Or do I have to do this another way?Also where should I put the code? In a button? Or can I stick it in the frame to save complications of users clicking on a button.
View 5 RepliesI have to make a thingie whereby when u enter values into 2 input txt boxes an image modifies its scale and alpha accordingly. Now I have done everything I am supposed to but the funny thing is NOTHING happens. I'll post the code (I applied it to the button which I think is right)...
on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
if (_root.scale>100) {

I created a funky mail form and i can't seem to send the info from the input boxes in my flash file... to the PHP script, stuff it into an email, and then send back a success or error response.

View 1 RepliesI'm having trouble with subtracting hp (a number in a dynamic text box). There's a variable on the main timeline for hp, and I'm trying to edit this when the character takes a hit.My character has over 350 hp at the beginning, but after one hit, it goes down to something like 1 or 6, and then after the next couple hits it'll go back to something in the 100s or 200s.
I used this code to that the health off:
_root.hp = _root.hp-random(150);
I'm having some trouble with a flash 5 game I'm making. I'm attempting to make a simple choice game, where there are two input text boxes and each has a different meaning. Similar to url.... One for the smart remarks for a reply to their answer. The other for their score. I want the score added after the correct choice is made. [code]The problem is that I don`t know how to assign variables to the text boxes and the answers so that the score carries over from the last scene.
View 1 RepliesI don't see it documented anywhere, nor have I heard it mentioned but it appears that Flash has a problem displaying _global variable values in dynamic text boxes when setting the var property in the property inspector. I am not able to display the variable successfully using just the var property, but I can dynamically set it via ActionScript. Seems odd to me that it doesn't work. It works as expected with timeline variables. Also...can someone explain why you DON'T type _global variables? In fact, you'll get errors if you try to initialize a global variable as such:

I have a PHP file which is correctly pulling records from a SQL database. What I need to do is place each new record into a new text box. I understand that I need to assign a variable to each record as it comes through the PHP file and that Flash needs to know which variable to assign to which text box. So, in that respect I have added a counter to the PHP script (it is performing correctly)

I'm trying to build a flash keypad that fills in input text boxes when you press a button.I have two input text fields. I can assign each button a number and tell it to display that number in the text field when pressed. for example:
Code:
but1.onPress=function(){
InputText1.text += 1
}

I can't seem to get the buttons to fill in the second text field.
