ActionScript 2.0 :: Input Text - "title" Disappears When Click On The The Text Field To Type
Aug 25, 2004
You've seen those Input Text Fields on web sites that have titles on them, i.e. Name, Email, Message, in the Text field itself. Then, when you click on the the text field to type something in, the "title" disappears and you can type your info in. Perfect example: [URL] (Under "contact")

When I click on a field to edit, the | symbol that allows you to type new text (for example, a timeline folder's name) disappears as quickly as it appears, therefore no way to edit anything.
when published my flash won't type text into input fields (unless there's already text typed in there before publishing) the cursor doesn't appear although the pointer changes to indicate an input field.
I seem to be having a very strange problem with an input textfield. If i have an original message in the input text field, eg Enter your name. Then i add a focus event to the textfield to check when the user selects the textfield. Once they do i want to clear the original message, so that the textfield is blank for when they start typing, but for some reason once i do that i can no longer type in the textbox. The code is from a custom text class i created, but a much simpler version.
I need to create a from like this quy.com.vn/dang-ky-mua-q-mobile-quy.html in flash.Can any one let me know how can i type Vietnami language in input text field of flash form ?
tried following the Embed Font example here: http:[url].... exactly with absolutely no results.When I add txtField.embedFonts, the text no longer shows up, and without embedFonts, the fonts are just Times New Roman or something. Regardless, the [Embed source="..."] syntax described in the example does not seem to work. Has ANYONE gotten Embed fonts to work in AS 3.0? Second, when I add wordwrap = true to a text field, the text disappears. (it used to work fine. It stopped around when I started trying to embed the fonts, but it doesn't work even if I remove all embed code.)
Is it possible to login through flash using one Dynamic Text Field and one Input Text Field and no buttons? If so how? I have seen many tutorials dealing with logging in to PHP using flash but it requires you to make your own php scripts which i am not familiar with. Can some one tell me how to do this with PHPBBs existing php scripts... I want to be able to login thorugh a Input Text Field box and have it verify it in PHP and also be able to register and view other PHP info such as users online and FAQ..
I'm making a calculator using Flash MX that works the same way as the basic calculator found on windows (not the scientific one). But having the user input a number, store it as a variable, store which function the user wants to perform and clear the text field then store the new input in the same text field as a different variable and multiply or add or divide or subtract the 2 numbers and getting the equals sign to display the answer when clicked is harder than I thought it would be.
What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial.
I have a photoGallery.swf, with an xml-generated menu.Every link will load a img.swf listed in the xml file.The img.swf is fairly simple: 1 image in the bg, 1 small txt field that loads some external text.My problem = while the img.swf displays correctly when viewed alone, the text disappears when I load it from the photoGallery. Actually, I can even say that I see the text during the glint of an eye, less than a second, when I load the swf from its link in the photoGallery's menu. So I really don't get why it disappears.Another thing, if I run my mouse over the area where the text field is supposed to be I can see the cursor change.[code]
Well...I say it "disappears", but it may just be that there is no longer text inside the field.
I don't know if this is supposed to happen or not. Was it ever a headache trying to narrow it down. I can't see why it would be intentional behavior, but here's the issue I've come across when working in Flash CS4:
When I have a dynamic text field on the timeline with an embedded bold font and then add another text field later with the same font with regular style instead of bold, if I try to update the dynamic text field's text, it disappears. I don't get errors when I try updating the text and I can pull the text back out of it, but it's no longer on-screen.
If I never include the second text field, or if it is a different font altogether, everything works like a charm. Also, it doesn't seem to matter if the second text field is static or dynamic.
I've attached an example. In the zip there are 3 files: The FLA, SWF, and Movie Report from Flash.
As it stands, for my project where I ran into this issue, I'm just using the regular instead of the bold style for the dynamic text field.
any good tutorial in which visitors can type a simple text in a text field for example, and that text while writing is automatically applied on the background image. And if they want,they can save it on their computer.
I have a doubt in flash, i have a input text field with the text "search..." if i click on the input text field the word " search...." should not be visible. It is quite same as search bar in Flash Kit website , it is having the word "Search Flash Kit" but when the user click on the text field the word get disappear.

how i can confine the text within the boundaries of the input text field instead of restricting to limited characters? I find that restricting to limited characters is a bit problematic as it depends on the number of words the user types on it.
I have created a form consisting of several input text fields. My question is whether there's script to evaluate which text field is currently selected.
I want to create an input text field that can be editable by the user and essentially when they click submit it turns this into HTML code with p, br, strong and em tags.
I don't know if it is possible, I assume it would be, but my searches are not turning up much.
I want the user to be able to select a section of text and click a B button to surround that selected text with strong tags, same for italics.
I also want to give the ability to at least record when the user presses enter in order it insert p tags and maybe even br tags if they press shift+enter
I'm trying to pass text from an input text in frame 1 to a dynamic text field in frame 10. Thus when the user enters text and clicks the submit button it takes them to frame 10 and shows them what they typed. It's not working but I'm not getting any errors. Here's the link:
I was attempting to create a text box with a submit button, where, when the text box first appears, there is text inside the box itself, for example, "enter answer here". However, I would like to have the ability to automatically clear that text when the user clicks on the text box, rather than forcing them to clear it.I found this thread which seems like it should work, using FocusEvent http:[url]...... However,when I entered that into my code using the name of my own text field, neither of the functions is ever triggered by clicking on and then off the text box.I even entered a trace to make certain, and it isn't.Am I missing some key point?
Using AS3 to create a basic number guessing game but for some reason the input text field won't accept text input. I can't figure out which piece of code is causing the problem and it's driving me nuts considering it's from a tutorial.
How can I type something in my input text field without clicking on the field first? Basically I just have one input text field on the stage and when I Test Movie I would like to just type in some text without clicking on the field...
does anyone know how to make the initial text in an input text box disappear once your cursor changes from the arrow to the type cursor? For example, I have an input text box which has the text visible saying "enter your email address here" I want this text to disappear automatically when the user goes to type something there...
I have a files that is loading and parsing a huge amount of data from a csv file and creating and plotting a graph using the data. All is well if I have the file loaded on the first frame of the movie. But if I pass in the URL by entering the file name in a text input field and clicking a button. The X and Y axis values disappear as do intermittent notes placed above the bar graph. I still see the x and y axis and it's hash marks and the bar graph (shapes) but all of the text is gone.
If I have an input text field on frame 1 and I enter text in it then I have a button that say sends me to frame 2. On frame 2 I have a button which sends me back to frame 1. Why when I got back to frame 1 is my text not shown?Why does an input text field go blank when leaving the frame? How can I make it so when i enter text on frame 1 and then go to frame 2 and then back to frame 1 the text i entered is still there?
