ActionScript 2.0 :: Linking Text Read From XML?
Aug 26, 2004
I went through this tutorial and i pretty much understood how to extract data from nodes.I got a few questions though. (I'm new to flash and AS) How do you apply a getURL to a text? if i use "getURL" as such, it opens the page without being clicked on. And if i use onRelease, it'll cause an error because i don't have any buttons.
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.inventor = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[8].childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
_root.comments = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[8].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
[code]....
I'm used to java so i can pick up some things fast. If thats used in the AS template from the tutorial it works pretty well except that the link opens up without it being clicked on. I'd like to learn how to link a piece of text.Secondly, from the RSS there are several such links, how would i go about a for loop? or an If statement? Could i do something like "if nodeName = URL" do something?

I created a 3D carousel in CS5. It works wonderfully. For now, I have it set up so that if someone clicks one of the menu items, the output window say "commited suicide after being cyberbullied", what I want to do is either have different text (that shows in the window) for each of the eight menu items when clicked, or 8 different URL links for each of the menu items, when clicked.

This might be straight forward, but I would like to know how could one link dynamic text boxes so that the information would flow? In a way, the information would flow from:
(XML) Input A into BOXA00, BOXA01, BOXA02, BOXA03, etc.
(XML) Input B into BOXB00, BOXB01, BOXB02, BOXB03, etc.
(XML) Input C into BOXC00, BOXC01, BOXC02, , BOXC03, etc.

What I am trying to do is have a user input his data into multiple textboxes, then once the data is entered it is displayed on the datagrid at runtime. The problem is when I run the app I click my button but no information entered is added to datagrid. My textboxes are also supposed to clear once the button is pressed but again nothing happens. Here is my code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:Script>

I do have a mc with a dynamic text box in it, this dynamic text box is linked to an texternal text file where I have the text I wanted to be shown in my mc when I publish the movie.
When you see the text in the movie I want to be able to use part of the text as a button to redirect the timeline to another scene and exact frame. For the moment I try everything I could but no luck.
This is the script I have in the text file for the monent and is redirecting to frame 11 in the same mc.
myHTMLdata=<p><font color="#999999">.................................. .................................................. .............................................</font></p><p><i><a href='asfunction:gotoAndPlay,11'>Tower Ultramort</a>
My question is what is missing in my script if a want to link the text Tower Ultramort to and scene call spultramort frame 11.
This is very important because I do have the website with dynamic text boxes all over it and I need to link them to different scenes.
Here is the link for the website: [URL]

The first problem I have is I have created a scrolling text box - it's a list of items - and I want the user to be able to click on an item and then a specific frame load that relates to that item.
I'm sure this is possible but at the moment I can only work out how to add a normal html link inside the external text file so when clicking on the link it loads an actual webpage.

I have a flash file and I have the dynamic text with the variable name 'Text1' I want to be able to edit this piece of text by linking the flash file to a php file - but I know nothing about php and therefore I don't know what coding to use in flash to link to php. All I need is a basic bit of coding which would be able to put in php so that one bit can be edited so that it will be edited in the swf.

I'm trying to create a little linking menu, for that I want to use items and then have some text within those items. When the user then clicks on the item, it's supposed to link. It all has to be loaded externally from an xml file. Now, I can get it to work half the way, the items come up, but it doesn't load the text, and it doesn't link either.
My AS:
[AS]var item_spacing = 50;
var item_count = 0;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;

I'm quite new to ActionScript and would be grateful for any help here. I want to load text into a dynamic text field (called 'about_tab') using a class depending on the language selected (by clicking on a flag icon) by the user. I managed to get this to work when the ActionScript was written directly in the timeline, but am having problems with doing the same thing via a class.
