ActionScript 2.0 :: Refreshing Text Box Output?
May 20, 2005
Alright. I've made a tool in flash that calculates the value of money in comparison to the value of goods avaliable. however, the values that my program is supposed to calculate wont update when variables are changed, how do i fix this?
[code]...
As a brief explanation, I have 4 sets of buttons (the code for the first two sets is in there), They Create goods that are used to back paper currency (amtGood and amtMon are the amount of goods and money). To calculate the dollar value of goods, the total money is devided by the total amount of goods. However it won't calculate anything but the original 10/10

I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?

I'm trying to make an AIR app that keeps loads a number from a webpage that is updated every 20 seconds. Basically it's a tiny app that will say how many calls are on hold.I've worked with some Actionscript 2.0, but 3.0 seems much more difficult to me.I used the following code to load the number from the url into a text box. I tried to use a timer to reload it and just can't get it right, and am not sure really what the best way to do it would be.

I have a simple mc which loads in a textfile consisting of a header and body. After editing, the file is overwritten and saved. All this works fine, only problem is, as soon as the "save file" is finished, and i reload it using one of the buttons, it doesnt get refreshed with the new data.[code]

you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Actionscript Code:
//function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void { var so:Object = Object(SharedObject.getLocal(record)); so.data.record = record;so.data.field = field; so.data.now
[code]....
Everything looks in order, all the variables are correct, the input text box is set to input - it just wont let you write in it. I even went into a blank project, created a rudimentary setup, with an input text box one frame and a button, with the simple script:
Actionscript Code:
outputName=inputName;
Setup a button that moved to the frame with the designated output dynamic text box, tested it, it worked. So I tried moving the input box to the program - will not work.... It does the same thing, cannot type in it. I tried moving the text box to a different frame, used the simpler script to output, made no difference.

I was wondering if you could take the text in your output box and put that into a dynamic text box. I am loading and taking data from an xml file which looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <dbcall type="leaderboard" stat="AVG" return_type="decimal">
<player pos="1" jersey_number="15" last_name="Mauer" first_name="Joe" team="MIN" value=".373" />
[code]....

I'm working on updating a quiz game my employer has. One problem I encountered was that the timer that runs during the "exam" mode of the game wouldn't work, so I found a work around by replacing it with a timer that did. All that it is, is a dynamic text box on the first frame of the questions, with the following script embedded in the start button to make it run:
start_time = getTimer();
countdown = 7200000;
onEnterFrame = function () {
elapsed_time = getTimer()-start_time;
[Code]....
When the game ends following the completion of question # 20 (there's about 200+ questions programed into it, with the 20 chosen at random) the game is redirected to a frame with results page; and here the time stops, using this code: count=(stop); Rudimentary, but effective - at least in stopping the timer. On this page is the option to save the results, with input found on this page (score, name, date and time completed) being output on another page, in a form the user can save or print off. What I can't figure out is how to output the elapsed time paused in the resutls screen, to dynamic text box in the save form. What script do I want, to send this information to the proper text box at the end?

I'm currently building a very basic flash application and i'm having trouble with one section of it. In this section I have an input box where the user enters their name and clicks an 'Enter' button. Clicking this button will take the user to the next section where I want their name to appear in a dynamic text box.The application works as far as getting to the next section but it doesn't display any input text in the output text box in the next section.
stop();
enterButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,update_output);
enterButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playSecTwo);

I have a dynamic text box with the instance name "output" and three buttons (btn_A, btn_B, btn_C). What I want is when you press a button the corresponding letter should appear in the text box. What I have so far is this:
Actionscript Code:
//btn_A:on (release) { ausgabe.text = "A";}
Works fine, but what do I have to do when I want to spell something, e.g. "ABC"?

here's my code (I'll explain in a second):

Code: - CA:true - TC:0 - CA:true - 1 - TC:1There's no logic in that! The output proves that both parts of the array are true. And yet, the "if" statement only activates once!

I am opening my mind to be lead down the path of the masters.I have created movie clips of hand drawn symbols; a1, b1, c1, a2, b2, c2...etc.I would like a text field to supply the input string, parse the string, then output the same string graphically with the MCs depending on a style (1 or 2).
ex: User inputs HELLO and selects style 2, on a button click a series of movieclips appears; h2,e2,l2,l2,o2.

I managed to show the output of a shell command in TextArea of flex by calling following php file via HTTPService and then using the dataprovider attribute of TextArea to show the returned output.
<?php
$output = shell_exec('ls -l');
return $output
?>
Now i have a C file which prints some lines (by using printf command of C) when i run it in shell using
./myCfile
But following php code seems to not return anything as my TextArea remains empty
<?php
$output = shell_exec('./myCfile');
return $output

I am somewhat new to Actionscipt and I need a bit of help. I have created a dynamic text box that is being fed from an xml file. Depending on the data (whether positive or negative), I would like the output text to either be green or red (green for positive, red for negative). I�m sure that has to be a condition statement written and applied to the object, but I do not know how to do.

understanding the use of an external class in Flash CS5/AS3. The need is to be able to encode/decode JSON and I have found a library that sounds good at: [URL]. But Im a bit confused as all the tuts show attaching code to an object (convert to symbol, export for AS frame 1). I'm not which one is the right one for my needs. All I need to do is read the JSON data and show the output in a text box much like I would with XML.

Why is the output not displaying the telephoneNum.text, it seems as though it doesn't even see the information that a user types in that field. It is also displaying the message in the incorrect_txt field regardless of what I type in the field.
