I have defined two variables,
Example
x = 2;
y = 3;
I then want to load both of these variables so that they will look like this
(2/3)
/ is just a separator not a divide operator!
I want to load these two vars into a dynamic text field called loadText:
_root.loadText = "WHAT DO I PUT HERE";

View 1 RepliesI'm still a beginner with AS3. I am simply trying to load my .htm file into my dynamic text field, but it will not show up. When the movie plays, the cursor shows that there is text where it is supposed to be, but I do not see any text. I don't see an option to attach a file, otherwise I would.
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat ();
myFormat.size=16;
myFormat.align=TextFormatAlign.CENTER;
var htmlText:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("text.htm");
var loadShit:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loadShit.load(htmlText);

Is it possible to load text into a dynamic text field, and if yes how could I do this? I've searched a few tutorials on dynamic text fields but it concentrates on scrolling. I would like unique text to load in the dynamic text field depending on which navigation button I click on.
(i.e. I click on "button1" and "blabla1" text appears in the text field. I click on "button2" and blabla2" text appears in the same text field.)
I am loading some XML into a dynamic text field
Actionscript Code:
texts_mc.desc_txt.text = xmlList[0].desc;
I need to limit its length to 75 characters which is about half the length of the last line of text. Is there a way to do that? I have been looking in the docs and tried stuff with String.substr but I could not get it to work at all.

When I run the flash from my local host (using XAMPP) it all works fine. But when I put the whole thing onto my online web server and change the URL to access the php file, its just coming back as "NaN" ...so why does it work on my local server but not the online one?
View 6 Repliesok I have a load vars function that looks for a txt file and grabs data from it, right now they have to be in the same dir. I'd like to have the txt in the root of my server and then be able to link from any dir in the site...I have: ("dataValues.txt")what should I add before it, I thought maybe a full URL, but no, is it something like ("../dataValues.txt"), basically I want to make the link global for the site - I dont have access to the files right now so I cant just try a bunch of stuff myself.
View 1 Repliesi'm trying to fill out dynamic text fields by adding to my url like so:url...if the url could link to the html in which the swf was loaded instead of to the swf directly, that would be even better... but that might or might not complicate things (i don't know)

PHP Code:
loadVariablesNum("produkter.txt", 0);
import TextField.StyleSheet;
var myCSS:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();

and a dynamic textbox called "myHTML". If I name 'var' on this textbox everything works fine, but I want to write it in actionsscript instead. Where do I write that? (I have 3 different vars in the text-file)
i used this script:

I have tried repeatedly to sendAndLoad variables from/to flash and php. The problem actually comes when passing the variables from php to flash, here is the flash code:

var dataIn:LoadVars = new LoadVars();

dataOut.pass = _level0.contrasena.ss10.s10; //passing the value of textbox

I have omitted some mysql code, but it would still work this way. Which is most odd is that when I test the movie in my computer it works perfectly, but when I upload it to the server it doesn't work anymore.
I have it when the user clicks on a link it loads the php ?page=portfolio, in portfolio.php i have a peice of code that writes "var=portfolio.swf" to a .txt file Actionscript loads the text file and grabs the var, which is sent to the preloader which loads portfolio.swf. The problem with this is the Flash cache, you have to open a new window to see the portfolio.swf loaded and the second problem would be clients fighting over the .txt file.
What I want to do is, eliminate everything on the client side (the txt file) and make it so flash picks up the vars from ?page=portfolio and directly passes that to the preloader.
I heard this can be done with FlashVars, its kinda hard for me to understand could some direct me to an example code of FlashVars that I can play around with.

if i do this:

plus whatever i pass through the URL

Although I have a long experience with AS2, I am just stepping in AS3 now. As should be expected, I have bumped a few issues here and there, that really puzzles me.
One of them is the way to correctly name a variable dynamically. In AS2, as far as I know the only way to do that is with _root, like that:
Code:
for (var z=0;z<=5;z++)
_root["myvar"+z] = z;
I have used quite the same way to do that in AS3, like that:
Code:
for (var z=0;z<=5;z++)
root["myvar"+z] = z;
However, it doesnt seem to be too good, because it just allows me to create global variables. What if I want to create local vars into the function? I tried to remove the "root" and use "var" statement but ActionScript doesnt like that (it tells me that there is an identifier missing before the left bracket):
Code:
for (var z=0;z<=5;z++)
var ["myvar"+z]:Number = z; // Flash yelds when I try that!
What is the trick to do that... or simply THERE IS NOT a way to do that, but always declare dynamic vars as public??
What I have is a dynamicly created row of movieClips. In which TextFields are added with text that's received from an Array. What I would like to be able to do is click on the movieClip that's visible and have the code understand I clicked array[3] for example and it will show the 4th array item in another textfield.
Current development: [URL]
and code:
Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;

i am having trouble loading multiple variables into a multline textbox. I am using asp which will output a recordset into flash. For testing purposes var0 should equal three names in my array. Flash is only reading 1. How do I set flash up to read that whole array(3 variables in one textbox)? I know Flash won't output var1 or var2 because I don't have those textfields with those variable names.
Here's what var0 outputs

Here's my Flash code
Code:
loadVariablesNum("http://www.delusionalfx.com/exp/flash_asp/register/test.asp",0,"GET");
I have one flash multiline textbox with a variable name var0
OK I have defined a variable sayPHP Code:test="what should I do?" then I have a textfield with var name "test". Now when I play the movie it will display "what should I do?" in the textfield, but what if I put the textfield inside a button? It won't show! How do I change the actionscript so that it doesn't think that the field is in _.root??I tried this:PHP Code:button1.test="whatwhere button1 is the instance name of the button!ut this won't work

I am a bit puzzled why this does not work when placed in my document class, but works when directly added a key frame in the Flash IDE.
ActionScript Code:
this['myVar1'] = new Object();
When within the document class I get this error when compiled,
ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property myVar1
I have tried the following but I still get an error.
ActionScript Code:
public static var root_Ref:Object;
root_Ref = root;
root_Ref['myVar1'] = new Object();
