You can refer to the attached excel file. my boss wanted me to make a replica of it in flash. the problem is I don't kno how to do it. In the excel file he wanted some cells - in orange - be available for user to input data at same time display the data. I find it difficult to do. I don't know if it is possible to display output in an input field.
View 1 RepliesI have an input text field in which the user enters text. This text is displayed in an output textfield. The user should have the option to change the color of a selection, This color should be applied to the selection in both the input and output textfield. After that the user should be able to further edit the text without loosing the fomatting.
But pictures say more than words so...
1. The user selects text and sets the color to yellow
2. The text color is set to yellow just like I want
3. This is the actual issue. When the text (in the input field) is edited all text in the ouput field goes black again That's not what I want, I want the colored text to stay colored when the input is edited.
This is my code:
Code:
txt_Input.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, fncOutput)
btn_Format.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fncFormat)
var tfmBlack:TextFormat = new TextFormat();

View 2 RepliesI'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.
View 3 RepliesWhat 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 want users to input a number into an input text field called "myNumber" which will be put into a variable.
all the rest of the code works if I just type in a number into actionscript on this line:
var theNumber = 8

var theNumber = myNumber.text
var theNumber = value(myNumber.text)
var theNumber = value("myNumber".text)
I have an input field where the result is added to a htmlText. The problem is, if the user is goofing around and types a < or a >, they can potentially stop any future additions to the htmlText.
Is there some way I can either:
a) stop the user from typing them into the input field or;
b) delete them upon submission of the entry?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying out this script: [URL] and I'll like to find out if it's possible to tweak it in a way that after the text is entered and submitted, the text will not only appear in the text field but also be added to a javascript contact form.
Jus inncase it's nt really clear, I'm using a javascript contact form whereby users will add in details such as name, etc, and they're also required to input some details in the .swf (the input in the flash is a must). After they're submitted the input in the flash (as seenn in the link above), the detail will be send together with the rest of the details from the contact form.

it works but if I set
var str:String = myInput.text;
