ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading External Txts With NON Standard ASCII Characters?
Apr 18, 2005
I've used a Kirupa tuto for loading externat txts in a dynamic text box and works...but the problem is I'm spanish and we use accents and the break c: �So I changed the externat txts to html files in order to use accents, but...as Flash uses the "wonderful" ampersand to change between texts blocks, everytime I write an accent or a � , Flash thinks this is the end of the text and hides the next text.So, there's is a way to use externat txts or html with non standard ASCII loaded in Flash?

How can I check if a string has any other character than the ones listed here: [URL]
I would like to know if the string was inputted in any other language than English. Is finding special characters in the string the best way to detect non-english characters?

We've got an issue (minor, but annoying) that I've got no clue where to begin to tackle.Our video player is run off a backend database, and 2 characters in particular are giving us problems:which are saved into the database with their ISO Latin-1 codes to avoid compatibility issues (ha, imagine that!).Now, all is fine and dandy except that our player uses this particular piece of data as a header in the template, styled to all caps using toUpperCase, which breaks the whole thing because it seems toUpperCase cannot properly map these letters to a corresponding uppercase value. To get around this we've tried using the HTML code for the uppercase equivalent of the same letter but the problem with this is that this same exact piece of data is also used on our website, but in it's raw camel-case format. We can't force it one way or the other, because then it breaks the other.
Is there a way we can use these sort of characters in both instances (in Flash with toUpperCase, and in the HTML page as camel-case)? Is this a Flash issue? A character code issue? A database issue? Where do I begin to address this?

there is an escape sequence which will code a specific ASCII character. In the format of "xnn" where nn is a hexadecimal ... like "x41" gives "A" My problem is, I have a function which returns a hexadecimal...but the escape sequence won't work that way. decToHex(65) returns "41" But "x" + decToHex(65) does not return "A" as intended...but "x41" I was wondering why my logic behind this is flawed?

in my projects i often use some xml files to load external text that i can format in css and it worked fine till now..i have a site that i am prograaming in italian and german and in both languages there is much text that contains special characters as "à " "ò" "è" "ù" "ä" "ü" and so on .. the problem is that when i write some text with this special characters in xml when the text is loaded in the flash this special characters are not recognised and instead of them a small square is displayed ..
i tryed to load the text from a html file instead of a xml file (because in HTML i know how to write theese special characters and let them display right in my html pages .. for example à = à but no way .. the flash now loades the text à instead of à ..

I see my accented characters displaying properly in my text editor. And I've confirmed that my font is OK in Flash by testing a dynamic text box--the accents in the test appear OK, so it's not the XML file or the font, it seems to be the XML loader itself.My XML file looks like this (there are Latin accented characters in the text node:[code]

So say I put in my textfile
textfield= The cookies were great ---> and so was the milk<br><br>Yes I love cookies.
The <br> is html, but the ---> is not, yet it won't show...
Same goes for other characters, such as "&", ", '

when i run the .swf file locally it works, but if i run it when it's embedded on an html page, it doesn't work.

1) Each field in the form only allows 3 characters and no special characters such as @ _ ! . , etc... 2) When the user goes to the next field in the form, the previous field appears blank but the when clicking on that again, the original text appears. 3) When submitting the form, it just keeps saying "in progress" and never shows the confirmation text nor does the email get sent. There is an HTML file included with this form but I am not sure if I need to put that in as I have embedded this form into an SWF file so I don't think I need that code but let me know if I am wrong about this. I am posting both the AS code and PHP code below..

I am taking feed files from an XML, so in order to make those not throw out errors when reading the XML, I convert all entities to their numerical equivalents and write them as "�" for example.This then gets imported into a database, so that it now has "�" in the database.
I then take the text in the database and use that to generate a new XML file, which still contains the "".Flash then reads this XML file and displays the text.Now I think every character is fine (haven't seen all of them, but seen many), including "" (), however, for some reason, the ï symbol refuses to work () and it just displays and not the symbol.

I am working on a Flex project that is interfacing with physical hardware.Using the AS3 command of socket.send I can set a particular feature on the physical hardware.The problem I am having is I need access to send from the Extended ASCII codes.[code]This would be translated to me sending two numbers to the hardware.7F and 07. The Dec equivalent of these Hex codes are 127 and 7.The hardware takes these two numbers and calculates a length along with a third integer.[code]
Unfortunately the Hex 88 is in the extended ASCII table.The highest the regular goes up to is 7f which is a Dex of 127.I need the ability to send full 0 to 255 numbers in ASCII form.I can't send from 128-255 without using the codes from the ASCII extended table.I get an error every time I try to send something form the extended ASCII table back from the hardware.Can anyone confirm that AS3 does not support the Extended ASCII codes?

I'm running some script using the charAt() function, that is supposed to return the character at specific indexes in a string, however for some reason it is returning ASCII values.

I want to create a board class from canvas, which will allow to track click position on it in coordinates like A2, where A...D is Y coordinate in some scale and 1...3 is X coordinate [URL]What I want to create is a kind of convertor from canvas localX and localY to my new coordinates like A2.I am thinking of implementing if condition this way if (0.4 - x*size(from 1-3 here)/canvas.width <= X <= 0.4 + x*size(from 1-3 here)/canvas.width)
X = x;
This way I can assigned needed coordinates in X range. e.g. 1, 2 ,3 etc But what to do with alphanumeric range. (if for example I want to make it extensible)...

I'm trying to allow ascii codes to be entered into a textField, using num codes (ALT+Num), and am seeing some very strange behaviour. If I enter: Alt + 14, I get a charCode of 9835, and ♫ is displayed in my trace output, but a placeholder square is entered in the textField. If I enter: Alt + 0014, I get a charCode of 14, placeholder square is displayed in trace, and ♫ is displayed properly in the text field.

I know letters have a number code to them, or ascii code, how can I use this to trace a letter with a number, for example lets say the ascii code for the letter 'a' is 97, in AS3 is there a way todo something like:
trace(asciiToString(97));
to trace out 'a'.

In Sweden we have these characters (and of course also in caps). But my MySQL db can't store characters, so if I look in the db and search for my name, Bostm, i can't find it..The search is ran from within flash (mx2004, and from there to a php-script, wich then sends the matching row back to flash.I want to convert all thein a string, and to be able to reconvert them when flash gets the string back... So the string should be stored in the db with the encoded...(am I confusing you now?)And I can't use the html-code for 'cause if the php-script prints this: Wow... quite an explanation...Ok, short summary:
AS-sting: Bostrm
>encode (so that =ASCII or so)
>send to PHP-script
