ActionScript 2.0 :: Input TextBox - Restrict User From Entering More Than Predefined Number Of Lines
Oct 15, 2007
I am working on an application in which i have put one Multi line input text box. I want to allow user to enter data only up to 8 Lines. User can not enter more than 8 lines. So is there any solutions..??? I dont want to use MaxChars as it can restrict user to not enter more than predefined number of characters. I want to restrict user from entering more than predefined number of lines.
Does anyone know of a way to restrict a user from entering a number over 100 into a textinput field in flex? i.e. a user can enter any number between and including 0-100 but not 101
I'd like to restrict the amount a user can type into a textbox based on the width of an existing textbox on the stage. I played around with the max chars but when you type something like a 'W' it is considerably wider than something like a 'i' (current font is 19px vs 4px wide). I was playing around with .textWidth, but wasn't sure how to use that value to restrict the textbox.
I just want to restrict enterkey of an input textbox and multiline property should be true.anybody can help me? I am using a multiline=true input textbox.I want to disable enterkey. ie when user clicking on enterkey after typing some text it should not effect in text box ie the cursor should not go to next line
I would like to restrict user input to numbers only between letters. for example: the user is allowed to input "a2b", but "2ab" or "ab2" isn't allowed.
I'm trying to create an input box which is restricted to one character wide and six lines - a total of six characters - which appears like this[code]...
I want the user to enter text in the input textbox field. Any text. There is no correct answer. My existing code below--leaving empty quotations--doesn't work. on(release) { if(InputBox.text = " "){ this.gotoAndStop(2); } else { gotoAndStop(3); }}
I'm very new to Flash, and I'm not a programmer, I have an Input text box named txtNe2 where a user will type an answer to a question. I want to evaluate the answer when the user pushes the Enter key and respond by sending the movie to either the "Ne2C" frame or the "Ne2I" frame (for the response to the correct or incorrect answer).
i have input text box i want user can enter only number between 0 to 255. if tries to enter greater number thar 255 then it show previous one e.g user entert 64 and then 6, in that case only 64 shown in text box .
I'm trying to do a check to see if the user inputed a number into an input text field. I'm also running a check to see if the user has left the input blank (which works just fine), but I can seem to get the NaN function working.
(using actionscript 2.0 w/ flash CS3)

I am trying to create movieClips in a loop based on a predefined amount. most importantly I want to have the variables defined as btn1, btn2, btn3 etc.
this is what i have done but i don't know how to put the number as part of the variable(i have all of the other code in place such as the languagesIndex set etc - this is the part of the code i am working with)[code]...
I'm trying to build a functionality into a Flash app, which would calculate the number of days that have passed since a defined date.
The idea is that a start date would be defined in the script (in whatever format) and the application would count and return the number of days since that date. According to that number the app would determine the availability of a set of links listed in the style of a calendar. I'm gonna be using a date variable from my servers to determine the current date.
How should I proceed with this? How should the varying number of days in months be handled? What about leap year?
I have two input text boxes. I need to enter a number (1900) into the first box then hit the 'Enter' button, then enter a number (50) into the second box right below the first.
After the 'Enter' button is pressed it needs to lock-in the required value, by selectable = false.
My problem is...I can get the first number to work. I type in the number, press 'Enter', it changes the textbox value to selectable = false...everything is good for that part.
But the second number is where I am having trouble, it seems the function is called, but that's it...nothing else happens.
I am creating a simple image viewer using AS3 and getting image URLs from flashVars in the HTML. I want to use an if argument to have it perform one function if there is only one flashVar and another if there are more. I have it reading the flashVars fine and can write if statements all day long, the trouble I am having is counting the number of flashVars being passed from the HTML.
var numberOfVars:Number = 0; // to store the number of flashVars var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters; //get the flashVars for each (paramObj in LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters){ numberOfVars + 1; } var tf:TextField = new TextField(); addChild(tf); [Code] .....
I would like to know is there any limitations in flash textarea like the number of lines it can have or the number of bytes it can have. iam opening a text file using php in textarea, where all the contents of the files are not getting loaded in the textarea. If it is there then how to increase its size, is it same thing in flex?
How would I code this so that when entering a number 1-10 in the text field the MC on the stage will go to that frame? Ie if I enter a 9 the MC playhead will gotoandstop on frame 9. I have attached a .zip file to illustrate
I was wondering if anyone knew the code to count how many lines are being used by the text. And yes the above example has 3 lines (dont know why u said this).
Specific yet simple problem: [URL] What I want to achieve:
1) after 1st entering, NONE of present input fields[TF] is selected.
2) when i press TAB key[1st time], first TF is selected and cursor inside it is blinking.
3) pressing TAB key repeatedly, i can cycle through all TFs [one by one]. The RIGHT order of CYCLING through TFs is displayed inside TFs.
What i have so far:
1) TAB key press works ONLY AFTER i first click on any TF, TFs are cycled in BAD order. Cursor is blinking correctly.
2) implemented Key.DOWN listener. Works without need to first click on any TF, but cursor inside selected TF is missing which makes orientation difficult. TFs are cycled in the RIGHT order.
I need to restrict the user and allow only first character as + or - or 0-9 and other character as 0-9..how can i do this in regular expression validator the below expression works but i need in restrict field.
I use a TextInput component of Flex 4.5 to enter some text in English. I use the restrict attribute to ... restrict the keyboard input to characters a-zA-Z only. The problem is that if i copy/paste a word in another language, i can then paste it into the TextInput component. Is there a way to avoid that? If no, how can i validate the input against a specified language?I found out that the unicode set of Chinese+ language symbols is u4E00 to u9FFF. So i write the following:
var chRE:RegExp = new RegExp("[u4E00-u9FFF]", "g"); if (inputTI.text.match(chRE)) { trace("chinese");[code].........
i have a question that is almost like other questions but with a small but very important difference. how can i restrict file types for user with a popup showed in the browser.
The standard file input of html can limit that with a command but it does not work in all browser so it is not an option. I do not want to validate the file extension after the user has chosen a file but before that, when he is choosing.[URL].. but it uploads the file after the user has chosen it, i do not want to do that, i want to upload it after the user submits the form.
So the problem looks like this that there are some ways of not letting the user send a not valid file but they are not good because, one is that i validate after the user have chosen the file and the other is that i upload the file before the user submits the form.
I just want a simple thing to not letting to "chose" a not valid file, it does not matter if it will be made with java script or flash, just let it work.
