ActionScript 2.0 :: Input Text To Be Treated As Number NOT String?
Sep 22, 2009
I have an application that is trying to sort of scores. The problem is that when it tries to sort it errors as it is checking if one string is less than another string when it should be doing one number less than another number.
I have played with parseInt but I haven't managed to get it to work?
I want to change the code a little bit by creating an Input Text. A random number will be typed in that text instead of having a fixed, pre-set number.
I'm trying to build a fahrenheit to celsius convertor in AS3. How can I test to see whether what is input into a text input box (flash component) is not a number? This isn't correct but you can get an idea of what i'm trying to do:
if (celsius_txt.text == NaN || fahrenheit_txt.text == NaN) { //do something; }
i got a input text , how do i set some number if they input the right one?like i want (2,4,6,8,10) to be true if they input the the same number ,i want boolean to be true how i going to do this?
We're making a simple input text comparisons vs. some constant floating point numbers (e.g. 4.35). Using Actionscript 2 to Flash 9 export. Getting totally contradictory traces on two different computers compiling identical code...Here's some simple code we're using to figure out what's going on.
Also, what behavior do any PC users have? I'm expecting the latter since they're generally intel chipsets too?Note: once i compile the code on my PPC mac, intel macs that run the SWF (but don't recompile the FLA) do return the correct booleans that match the PPC output.
I'm having trouble passing a number from an input text box to a dynamic text box after a button is clicked.
In timeline I have two frames labeled: 1) inf, which starts with an input text box and a button, and 2) closing, which receives data from inf section.
INF SECTION has an input text box (age_txt) and a button (inf_bt).
var userAge:Number;age_txt.text; inf_bt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoPg1); function gotoPg1 (evt:MouseEvent): void{age_txt.text=String(userAge);// user
Need a code that only accepts numbers. Upon inputting, the code must check if it is number, if not, it must remove the entered key or not enter it at all
I have one input box in which you enter a number. That number must be sum plus 5 and the result should appear in a dynamic text box when you press a button.To change the "number" text string you entered in the input box to a real number that Flash understand as a NUMBER I placed "parseInt" and "Number" before the name of my instance objects. This is the action of the button:
My input textfield is called Minutes. var pMinutes = Minutes.textvar sMinutes:Number = Number(pMinutes) I use it in a timer, and when i try to add a value to Minutes (ex. 5) in the swf the timer displays 59:59, if i add a value (ex. 5) in the .fla the timer goes well but i have to add a value before exporting... so the textinput is like a normal read-only text field.
I've got a few input text fields and a submit button on an order form I've designed. Trouble is you can only order in multiples of 2. Naturally I have a warning stating that orders must be multiples of that number but there is always room for idiocy! Lets say my order input text box is called "order" and the button used to proceed to payment is called "submit". How do I detect an ODD number entry and have it run an mc called "warning"?

On stage I have three input text boxes each with an instance name of w1, w2 and w3.On running this:[code]So, I'm trying to set up multiple input boxes and get each text string to concantonate in another string (like a MadLib)
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 working on a delivery costing system for my company using postcode input from users
For you non Brits out there UK postcodes work on two blocks of 2-4 characters each.
L2 2HH - Liverpool central M24 2TN - suburb of Manchester IV56 7NQ - outter Inverness
You get the idea. So the first part of a UK postcode, wether it be 2 characters or 4 characters MUST have atleast one numeric and one non-numeric character in it. How do I detect this?
At the moment I've just got my CHECK POSTCODE button to run a few functions only if my POSTCODE (input text) field length it greater or equal to 2 characters. So how do I easily detect an input of numeric and non-numerical characters without having to resort to indexOf ...a...b...c...1...2...3...?
I have a list control in a component mxml file. I have created a function in main mxml file, I want to input a text string and add it to this list. How can I do that. Currently using this code public function add(event:MouseEvent):void { var name:String = mytextinputid.text; currentState = 'ChatScreen'; mylist.____ } Note that this function is in main and the mylist list control is in component mxml.
ActionScript Code: input.text = "[URL]"; function PlayVideo(event:MouseEvent):void { switch (event.type) { case "click": var findVideo:RegExp = /(?<=?v=)([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+/; trace(findVideo.exec(input.text)); break; }}
I don't know what video this is (just picked it randomly off of the front page), but by clicking a button, the RegExp is called, looks for an ID in the input.text String, but when it does and I trace it, it gives me this:
ActionScript Code: QGsGJlCpor4,4 What's with the ,4? How do I get rid of that?
I've been trying to compare two strings. One from an input text field, input_txt, and the other a variable. For some reason, even though both trace out exactly the same, it's not seeing a match.
I basically need to store a string of characters from an input text box and have them displayed at the last frame of the quiz. I declared the variable holding the input text as _global.player in the first frame, and upon clicking the start button the code is:
on (release) { _global.player=player.text; gotoAndStop (2); }
These variables are not referenced again until the last frame of the quiz, which reads thus:
stop();playerdisplay.text=_global.player;score.text=_global.correct;'Endng Comments Generator'if (_global.correct<=3) { phrase="Try a little harder next time";}if (_global.correct>3 + _global.correct<7) { }comment.text=phrase;
Yes, I know the global.correct coments are not yet complete, but i dont think that should be causing any issue with the playerdisplay.text (the dynamic text box to display the player name). If anyone could give me a hand that would be great. Nothing appears in the dynamic text box when the final frame of the movie loads.
how to make a simple AS3 class.I've made a simple calculator application that allows you to add, subtract, multiply, and divide after entering 2 values into their respective text box.The problem, how ever, is once I moved it into it's own class, I cannot figure out how to reference the text fields. I have the movie clips referenced just fine, but, I cannot figure out the text fields.Here are the errors it's spitting out:
Code: 1120: Access of undefined property Number1_txt. 1120: Access of undefined property Number2_txt. 1120: Access of undefined property finalValue_txt.
And it does that for each instance of those in the Calculator.as
Main.as
Code: package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class Main extends MovieClip {
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)

this.btn_step1next.onRelease = function() { if ( zipcode.text == "" || zipcode.text == isNaN() ) { message.text = "Please enter your ZIP code to continue."; } else {
I think this can be really easy however i'm not reaching the answer of this question. i have text inputs .......and i want to restrict the input to only Numbers...mytextbox.restrict = "0-9"; now when i try entering the values it works fine.....but but.....i doesn't accept any special characters.and i want it to atleast accept '.' because i want to accept decimal values
I have a simple page with a text box and a go button on it. I am trying to build a URL from text that's put in that box.For example, someone types "peanut" in the box, then hits the go button.When they do, it loads the page "http:[url].....It seems simple, but I am not getting the variable to store/pass properly.
