ActionScript 2.0 :: Input Text Displays Returns Formatting
Oct 12, 2010
The first questions was a calculation with the correct answer 5 or five. I have created an input text box with a variable ans1. Instance for the input text is Q1Input. I made a button with the following button script:
on (release, keypress "<Enter>") {
if (ans1 eq "5" or ans1 eq "five") {
gotoAndPlay(2);
[Code].....
Typing a correct answer gets me to a wrong message (frame 3) not correct (frame 2). When I trace(ans1) it seems that the input text box is passing teh formatting data with the value thus giveing me WRONG.

we are told to make a sort of calculator, You should be able to input a number, press a button and then it should do several mathematical steps and it would end up with the number 1
Here is what I've got so far:
ActionScript Code:
var input:Number = 0;
var summa:Number = 0;
var output:Number = 0;
[Code].....
The script works fine when not entering a number in the text box, it calculates just as it should.
But if i enter any number, it shows up as NaN in the trace. I've asked my teacher and he doesn't see anything wrong with my code, and neither can i..

it's possible to restrict hard returns in text input fields? I've tried something like this:my_txt.restrict="^u0013", and a bunch of variations thereof, but nothing seems to keep the Enter key from doing it's thing. Second best would be to traverse through a string a user has entered and replace hard returns with a space or dash, but again I've had no luck looking for or . I've tried entering text and hard returns into a dynamic textfield set to input, but when I try this:
var n:Number = my_txt.indexOf("
")...
trace("n: "+n) //traces "n: -1"

I 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?

format partial parts of an input text box at runtime. I have seen a few "text editors" around which are built in flash so i am assuming it is posible but i would like to know the extent of developement on this. My idea is much more simple than the text editor.
Basically i just need to be able to change the format of a specific word or two in a string, which the user has entered in the user input box, on specific words..
for example. image writing some text in MS word, and the last word written is wrong "spelled incorectly" it is then immidiately underlined.. this is the effect i'm after. i have the code working producing errors in a seperate output box. but i need it to change the input text dynamically at run time.

I have a TextInput for a user to enter their Date of Birth. Right now they just enter a string of numbers and I parse it for the correct values but this can be very inefficient. What I am looking to do is have the TextInput automatically formatted to look --/--/---- so the user can click in it and fill in the '-' fields while leaving the '/' for formatting purposes. Does anyone know of a good way to do this?

I'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 can get which part of file in bytes is loaded using videoDisplay component for RTMP protocol for VOD, I can get the current playing position using videoDisplay.playheadTime. But I want to know how many seconds of video are already loaded (not the length of bufferTime, which remains constant). i used videoDisplay.bytesLoaded when using RTMP it returns nothing ,if we uses HTTP it displays number of bytes loaded
The loaded size in bytes is not directly proportional to running time of the video, and while using rtmp im unable to get bytesLoaded too, how i can calculated the Video already loaded.

I'm trying to create a user input textfield which automatically applies the defined format on it. The only problem is: actionscript 3 seems to ignore the format and stubbornly applies the default text format. How can I apply the desired format on user typed text? Here's my code so far. As you can see, for experimental reasons I tried to apply the size "60" on the text, but if you execute the script, the size of the text remains unchanged:
PHP Code:
import flash.text.Font;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
import flash.text.TextField;
var theTextField:TextField = new TextField();
var txtFmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();

I have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

I have a load file and a write to file method. We all know what they do. How ever load always returns true and write always returns false....Right there you know somethings wrong. Because The forums have an issue with me posting code...I posted it here: [URL] Based on this code what is the issue here? why is write always returning false and why is load always returning true? (even for files that do not exist). My understanding is that if flash cannot find the file it should write to it will create it and if it cant load said file, then that method should return false.

the last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {

I'm building this flash site for a friend and he wants to be able to edit the contents and maintain the site by himself later on. So naturally, I used a dynamic text field that uses URLloader to link to an external html, dandy. Problem is, my friend wants to use dreamweaver to edit the contents of html (or even just a word document exported as html) and it's just driving him nuts because the text look nothing like that way it did in DW when it's loaded into the dynamic text field (extra spacing and line break popping up randomly everywhere). Is there an alternative solution other then telling him to just edit it in notepad? What if I switch over to XML?

make one word in a dynamic text field bold WITHOUT using the htmlText property? Everything I have read seems to indicate that you can only make the whole field bold.

I'm having an issue where the client wants me to format a string as it's being entered into an input box. It's part of an interest calculator The problem i'm facing is that I can format a string so that it comes out the way he wants but the problem is that I can't figure out a good way to rewrite the function so that it doesn't keep reducing the number as I'm typing it in, just adds the decimal places like he wants.

I'm trying to pull a variable from an ASP page that's pulling it's info from a database. The ASP page has a response.write that outputs &ScrollText = text that comes from the database. The ASP page works fine, but when I try to pull in the variable in Flash, it takes in all the html URL escapes, i.e.: %20 for a space %22 for a ", etc. I've tried using Server.URLEncode in my ASP page, but that didn't help any. I'm displaying this text in a dynamic text box with a scroll bar.

I'm working on a Flash presentation, and I have a lot of text pages with buttons and movie clips on. The problem I have is that all subheads are set to size 35pt using Helvetica Neue Heavy, but on a couple of the pages a random subhead is displaying a lot larger than 35pt (I'd say 50pt) but it is definitely set to size 35pt in the Character palette. I have no idea why this is happening and it's driving me mad.
