I'm trying to retrieve an input value from a dynamically created input text fields ("qtyWant_txt"). I want to play that value back into an array ("QtyWant"), which is tied to a form. When the form is submitted, it'll grab the value in the array. My problem is that I'm unable to retrieve the value in the input field prior to passing it to the array.

I'm trying to figure out how to retrieve a data or text from a text input field? what im talking about is, i have a text input field which i can enter some text then, i have a button where when i pressed it, the data or text that i have inputted on my text input field will be added and can be shown on a dynamic text field.
View 5 RepliesI would like to know if it is possible to save data from an input text field to a file on my computer, then retrive the data from that file and load it into a dynamic text field. This application is not and will not be on a website of anysort its an experiment in creating a sorta phone book on my computer. I have created 2 input text fields. the first one is where i would enter a persons name, instance name of "_name", the second input text field is where i would enter a phone number, instnace name of "_phone".
Also there is a button with an instance name of "_save", which hopefully will save the data to a txt file on my computer or something, at this point i am up for anything. what I dream of doing is haveing two projectors one for entering the data, and the other for retrieving the data. The second projector, i would like to beable to type in a name or phone number then it would display, load, retrieve the name and phone number from that file storing the data.
is there a way to make it so when you are done putting something into an input field it will automaticly add/subtract from a dynamic field.Dynamic1 + Input = Dynamic2where each time you change the input text it will readd dynamic1 and input show it on dynamic2

Is it possible to login through flash using one Dynamic Text Field and one Input Text Field and no buttons? If so how? I have seen many tutorials dealing with logging in to PHP using flash but it requires you to make your own php scripts which i am not familiar with. Can some one tell me how to do this with PHPBBs existing php scripts... I want to be able to login thorugh a Input Text Field box and have it verify it in PHP and also be able to register and view other PHP info such as users online and FAQ..
View 2 RepliesAll I want to do is have an input text box where the users type a number, then Flash to perform a simple calculation and then display the answer on screen. For example; output = input *2 so if the user entered "5" the value displayed on screen would be "10".
I found this tutorial which is exactly what I am trying to do: [URL] but cant get it working correctly for some reason and just gives a "NaN" result (looks like an old version of flash)
I got a music portfolio web site running PHP, MySQL and Flash. There's a page showing all the artists my client worked for and when you click on a song title, this title is passed as a variable to a PHP page then to a Flash page. The Flash page contains an actionscript music player which then looks for the right audio file in the database and plays the song. Everything works great except for the dynamic text field which displays the song title. If the song title contains an apostrophe or a single quote, the Flash dynamic text field then shows the apostrophe.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with input type text field. In my flash project there is a button to create no.s of dynamic input type text field according to the no.s of clicks.The text fields are created fine and user can type anything in any of the text field. but I cant access the text field when i use "onSetFocus" or "on Changed" method.Because I have to do something else with each of the creted text field.

I have a string that searches the Twitter API, for keywords, for example :
var url:String = "http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=Robin%20&lang=en&rpp=100";
I also have a input textfield dynamically created:
var inputField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(inputField);
inputField.border = true;
inputField.width = 200;
[Code]....
But how do i take the data from the input text field and add it to the string, keep in mind the input data has to go in the keyword part for the string.
I have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?
So I'm working with flash CS3 and AS2. I added a Loader component and a
var imagetext:String = "http://www.digitaldesktopwallpaper.com/wallpapers/unknown/waterfall_wallpaper_001_1024.jpg";
And a button that
on(press) {
_root.imgloader.contentPath = _root.imagetext;
}
It all works well and stuff, but when I turned "imagetext" into an input text field, it gives me an error message
Error opening URL 'http://www.digitaldesktopwallpaper.com/wallpapers/unknown/waterfall_wallpaper_001_1024.jpg<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="CENTER"><FONT FACE="DokChampa" SIZE="21" COLOR="#FFFFFF" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">a</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>'
how do I define that input text as a string text on the press of the button and replace the original content with the new one?
I would like to input a numerical value into a dynamic text field using a button. The numerical values is one, the button is called a1_btn The dynamic input text field is called results_txt This is the code I am using. Even though it shows no script errors, clicking on the button doesn't input the number on the dynamic text field.
//Mouse event code
a1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
//this is the value of the number
var number1:Number = 1;

View 2 RepliesI am trying to make a bar graph that tweens to the height, or decrease, according to the number defined in the Dynamic text box. I would like to use the tween class from MX for a nice bounce effect. Here is my code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
ICcost._height = Number(ICC1);
new Tween(ICcost, "_yscale", Elastic.easeOut, 0, ICC1, 2, true);
ICC1 is the dynamic text field that displays a number from a formula through a couple input boxes. ICcost is the name of the MC I want tweened.
As I have it now it doesnt tween, the height just goes to the ICC1 number which is ok for now. Is there a way to set the tween to happen when flash registers a change in the number?
What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial.

I have some problems using dynamic textfields, spent hours to get it fixed but nothing works. Here's the problem. I've created dynamic textfields where visitors can enter their data, like name, address, comment and so on. My website appears on fullscreen when the web address' typed in. When it's in this fullscreenmode, I'm not able to type in any data in this textfield. When I leave the fullscreenmode I am able to type in my data. Also I've created a dynamic textfield, which loads this sent data from an external database. Now I want to add a scrollbar to this textfield, so all the messages that doesn't fit in the field will be visible. I've tried to create my own, without success, even the simple one in the componentspanel doesn't work.
View 2 RepliesI will try to state this simply. If required I can post my code. I have created a class that extends the MovieClip. It is basically a retangular shape, with a color and a label that can be set via the "properties" concept. The label.text property is public.
I create a "new" object of this item (more or less a button) depending on reading an xml file.
If the file has 3 names (titles like "Lesson 1", Lesson 2" etc). I create a new "button" for each name in the xml file.
so I can get 3 instances of the object on the stage. Which I get. I create each new object like this:
var link:linkBase;
var menu:linkBase;
I use a for loop to read the xml data, and create the instances:
for ....
menu = new linkBase();
// i try to give it an instance name like the
menu.name = xmlList[i].name // name = "Week1", "Week2", "Week3", etc
i push the menu object into an array like this: nav_button.push(menu), in the for loop.
I can draw the three objects on the stage. I have a stage listener that will trace the target name if I click on the instance. I get "null" if I click off the button. My problem is that I get the target name for only the second and third instances, and not the first. If I comment out the menu.name line, and click each instance on the stage, I get "instance9", instance12, instance15. So I know there are three objects there.
I can do something like this to get a name on the first instance: nav_button[0].name = xmlList.week, or hard code a string like "Week1".
But I want to be able to do this in a loop of some sort. I am trying to create a user friendly name for each instance, so I know what I am clicking on, and take action depending on the name "week1", "week2" etc.
what I am missing in terms of naming a instance on the stage?
I'm experimenting with the XML help files provided on the LiveDocs website and I was wondering how you would display XML datas in a dynamic text string.For instance I have a Dynamic Text Field called "textfield". This is my code.

I am trying to load xml data into a dynamic text field. I am able to load, and trace the data but cannot display it into a dynamic field. Here is what i have:
Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("directory.xml"));
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, showXML);
[code]....
What I am trying to achieve, is to produce what I've traced into the dynamic field. Also if there is a way to do that when a button has been clicked. I tried making the function showXML a mouse event, but it didn't work.
I've got my XML file loaded and parsing correctly with a trace statement.
I want to have each text identified as marketLocation1, marketLocation2, etc up to 150 and I wanted to use a 'for loop' to place the value of that XML node into each labeled text field, and each individual text field is buried inside a button so that the button displays on mouseover an associated XML fields data. Each button would also be corresponding labeled market_1, market_2, etc.
Meaning, I mouse over a dot on a map (button) and it pulls up a statistics balloon about that location specific to our companies needs. I'm a total AS3 noob, so I'm not sure if I can preload the data for that button into it's specific text fields.
Specifics are for the xml/flash file
Code:
<market MarketID=1>
<marketLocation>Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, NC</marketLocation>
<marketPopulation>2,600,000</marketPopulation>
<marketArea>100 sq. miles</marketArea>
</market>
I have markets divided up into regions. I have the base map, which when you click each region goes to a new labeled scene on the root timeline. The scene shows a closeup version of the region. On that region are the dots for the markets. Each dot would have an up state and over state (displaying the pop-up balloon with data) etc.
I'm working on the first 'button' as the initial test and what I want to do is make is that i can use a For loop to cut down on the code, using the variable i in place of the "1,2,3..."
The first button, market_1 is in a labeled scene SERegion on the main timeline. While the code I'm using to parse all the fields is in frame 1.
When I try to place the value of marketLocation located inside the button market_1, I am trying to do this when I parse the data
Code:
function parseData (marketInput:XML):void {
market_1.marketLocation1.text = marketInput.market.(@MarketID == 1).MarketLocation.text();
}
When i compile, i get the error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property marketLocation through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton
MarketLocation is also in just the Over state of the button.
