ActionScript 2.0 :: Input Text To Array Variable Not Working?

Jan 12, 2008

I am working on a line rider/ free rider style game in flash (which is coming along quite nicely ). For the whole night I've been trying to create a way to save and load data simply off text and have finally come up with a basic solution for it! I have my information all stored into an array neatly to be later used with the function lineTo upon load. My problem here is that when I actually input the data into the textbox to be picked up by the load button it does not draw the lines like its supposed to.My load button has the following code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
onRelease = function() {
var points = new Array(_root.xInput);[code]......

Mar 25, 2009

I'm using ActionScript 2.0 with Flash CS4 Professional, andI'm running into conflicting info on how to do this depending onwhich Flash book I'm looking at (and is that really a surprise?).1) I want the user to type text into a text field and thenFlash places what they've typed into a variable.So I created a text field of the type 'Input Text' andassigned this variable 'myInput'2) When the user presses a button, I want Flash to look atwhat is in the variable. THEN... If they have typed the correctword, they are sent to frame 19. If they type anything else, theyare sent to frame 38.In this example, the correct word is: "move"So, I placed this script on the button:

on (release) {
trace(myInput);
if (myInput = "move") {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Text Not Working?

Aug 4, 2011

I am working on a budget project where users input text (numbers) and it is automatically added. The swfs works great, but when I export an exe it does not work.

Sep 1, 2009

I need to create a Flash Quiz with the following:

1.) A page with a question, including a "submit" button, and an Input Text field where the user can type in his answer.

2.) A page with "Correct" and a page with "Incorrect".I have already gotten the pages and graphics created. But for the life of me my Action script is not working. The tutorials I have looked at would help me if I were making the quiz one total page where when you answered the question there would be a comment that came up, but that's not the case.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Text To Array

Jan 20, 2011

I have an input text where user have to input numbers like 1234-1234-1234-1234

There is four blocks of numbers. each block contains 4 digits, which is compulsory without any space or other characters.

So far it restricted with numbers and a space.

I need to push it in an array, so each number will represent a meaning on programs.

ActionScript Code:
txtInput.restrict = " 0-9";
txtInput.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,dataChanged);
function  dataChanged(e:Event):void {
var ar:Array=txtInput.text.split(" ",4);
trace(ar);
}

This code helps to get some extinct but need more accurate to get the actuals from users.

Professional :: Input Text Variable Is Being Converted To HTML?

Sep 29, 2011

I have an Input Text box that has a variable assigned to it.The user is to input a number, and then it is submitted with a button that does a simple conditional if statement check. I noticed that the if statement is constantly failing because the variable is tracing back as HTML.The trace of the variable looks like this:

<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#0066CC" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">4</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>

The variable should simply be the number 4 without all the HTML jibberish.The "Render text as HTML" is not on for the Input Text box.I am completely baffled and at a complete loss... any ideas of what is happening here?!Below is the exact code I am using...

TIMELINE
numA = random(10)
numB = random(10)[code]....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input A Variable At A Specific Portion Of The Text?

Feb 29, 2012

I have a string of text, but within this text I want to input a variable at a specific portion of the text. Now this string of text is taken from an XML file. So the XML file would look like this for example:

Code:
<name>Sweep</name>
<type>ATK</type>
<target>AoE-EN</target>
<caste>Warrior</caste>
<desc>"This is a text"+temp.alias+"hey"</desc>

The <desc> is an example of a way I tried to make it work. What I want to happen is when I display the desc in my flash file, it inputs the alias (which in the xml is the name) of the item. In PHP this could be doing using EVAL() but I notice the support for that type of function is removed in AS3.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Sending Input Text Variable To PHP Without HTML Tags

Oct 14, 2009

I have an input box with a variable name. When the user enters some text and presses a button that variable is sent to a php file using the GET method. Then the info is put into a database. When I checked my database, I found that a load of styling html tags has been included. I want for my input text box to have styled text, but I don't want that styling /html tags to be sent to the php file. I know I could use strip_tags in php to get rid of the html tags, but surely there's a way of not sending the tags at all, just the text content of my variable?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Array Into An Input Text Field?

Dec 16, 2010

I am an educator and I am designing an interactive activity for my students. I created two buttons named baby_B and baby_G, and an input textfield named text_entry. When a student presses baby_B, the letter "B" is entered into the input text field; if a student presses baby_G, the letter "G" is entered into the input text field.For a student's solution to the input text field to be correct, it has to contain values BBB, BBG, BGB, BGG, GGB, GBG, GBB, and GGG in any order. I created an array named solution_S with these values. I also have an enter the solution button named enter_btn. The student can check their solution by pressing the enter_btn button; if the input textfield is correct, the quiz moves on to the next frame in my timeline; if it is incorrect, it moves to a different frame in my timeline.

stop();
baby_B.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, letterB);

ActionScript 2.0 :: Link Input Text To A Variable And Output That Text To The Output Window Using Trace

I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities.

For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?

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.
