View 5 Repliesgenerate random text with the click of a button. I have followed the kirupa.com tutorial for 'loading random quotes' but I am still getting a few undesirables. Firstly, I am generating an 'undefined' result occasionally. (Even with the example text from the tutorial). I have 5 quotes as per the example, but still get undefined as a result from time to time. Also, how would I go about altering the code so the same quote wasn't generated immediately after itself?

View 3 RepliesI have problem with getting a random word from an array and the putting that word to a text field.

View 2 RepliesI've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?

View 14 RepliesI have this hyperlink, but I want the program to look through the hyperlinked page and pick out random words within a certain perameter. So like, it has to have a noun, verb, and pretty much end up a normal sentence that is completely out of context. Something like, "The doppler effect enjoys pine needles in the cornfield."
Is it even possible to get that? Can you even generate random string off a hyperlink? Can actionscript even browse through a hyperlinked file?
