Does anyone know where I might be able to find a list of all HTML (and XHTML) tags that are supported with externally loaded CDATA text? I have a client who's running into rich text editor issues using a <strong> tag instead of, say, <b> tags, and I'd like to have a solid list of supported tags they can use.
At this point I when I run the movie I get the index which is basically a number, but I want the label associated with that number.
In the XML file, there's an attribute called data, I want the segment2.swf to load when the user selects the option. I have a loader component also on stage, I just want the user selection to be as input to the content path of the loader.
Completely at a loss for words...it is there in the xml file. The XML throws no errors. And yet when I try to access the CDATA section it says that its null. What does that mean? Here is my test source, and the link to the location of the XML doc (its a hard coded link in the AS).
so i have ignoreWhite set to true and am trying to get textual data out of an xml node. my node looks like so:<description>this is a description</description>so i navigated to the node with the following variable:var descriptionNode:String = newsXML.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes[i].childNodes[2];and it gives me the output when i trace it with the node and the description in it. but i don't need the node, i need the text only, so i tried to add a nodeValue at the end of that and it output as null. why am i brainfarting right now and can't figure out how to output just the text and not the text AND the node?
I'm building a gallery under flash mx 2004. I use an xml file to store the description about each painting that has to be displayed with the picture related to it.
Having to do some as2 with an ancient system, and am far from fresh on it. I've managed to bungle my way through most of it, but I've hit a strange logic problem.
When I try to get some text from a node into a textfield by using .nodeValue I get 'null'. When I use nodeType on that node the result is "1". I understand that a textnode should result in value "3". But how come this isn't the case here?
I read Senocular's tutorial on XML and found it really useful. But I still have a problem: When I try to get some text from a node into a textfield by using .nodeValue I get 'null'. When I use nodeType on that node the result is "1". I understand that a textnode should result in value "3". But how come this isn't the case here? My xml looks like:
I'm trying to do to familiarize myself with flash. I'm loading an external XML document into a Flash AS2 project using the XMLComponent. I'm able to get everything to display properly within my lists except for my hyperlinks.
I've enclosed my hyperlinks in the XML document using the <![CDATA[hyperlink]]>. Once the movie launches.....the full URL tags are being displayed: (eg. <a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a> )
My hyperlinks are in there own seperate List component.
It's possible to do this html effect (the drop-down list) in flash Code: html code example <SELECT NAME="cities"> <OPTION VALUE="paris">Paris</OPTION> <OPTION VALUE="francisco">San Francisco</OPTION> <OPTION VALUE="jose">San Jose</OPTION> <OPTION VALUE="vegas">Las Vegas</OPTION> </SELECT>

i am having with xml being displayed in flash mx.the tutorial on this site works fine, but when i write my own xml file and modify the as, i encounter the problems. ideally, i wolud like to be able to load text files and urls of images to be loaded into flash, flash recognises the xml file fine and actually loads it, however, when i try to use the nodeValue action, i am always given the value "null." this is because flash thinks the node is an element rather than a text node (type 1 rather than 3, when you use nodeType.) i don't know why it does this when it is obviously a text node.
I am trying to build an ordered list in Flash using html text but Flash doesn't recognize my <ol> </ol> and <li> </li> tags, my <br> tags work though...
This is my test code (the text is inside Flash at the moment):
Code: //Text Format var textFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); txt.paddingTop = 2;
I have a Flash Web site for a small literary journal and am trying to switch over to my hosting service's mailing list manager for sending out newsletters. I see the HTML code for setting this up (available from my host), but do not know how to get it to work in my Flash site. (I did not build the site and know very little about Flash...I'm learning as I go in order to do updates.) It looks like the site currenly links to a PHP file to allow for sign ups to our newsletter. Can anyone tell me h how to get the HTML code to work on my site?
I am designing a web application in Flex 4 and currently facing an issue rendering advanced HTML tags and entities in Flex 4. All I want to do is basically render an HTML text coming to me something like the one given below:-
this["nodeValue"+i] = new TextField(); (surely in dynamic class )
then I want to change instance name of that element.when I trace this["nodeValue"+i].name.I got a different name for that element ! f ex : instance8 .how can I get "nodeValue"+i from my element and change that .is it read only ? I want to swap tow element's instance name !
for example : this["nodeValue"+i] to this["nodeValue"+i+1]
I'm using flex 4.1 to write an application. i read in the documents that has the rowCount property to set how many items to display. the does not have that property. how can I limit the list to display 3 items ?
I am working on an older Flash project created in CS3 ActionScript 2.0 How can I make the pointer cursor change to the hand when hover over a list item?_root.slidePanel.myList'myList' is the list. I have traced out the contents of the List MC and it has a child MC called 'content_mc'. I assumed this was the object containing all of my list items but the only members of this MC I can see (when tracing them out) are 'setRGB' and 'searchKey'.
Creating a dynamic list and associating a picture with each list item. i need the list to be scrollable, and i want the list and it's associated picture to be displayed randomly when the application is re-launched. i.e it doesnt show the same list everytime.
I also what to be able to sort the displayed list items. e.g if the list items is about restaurants, i want users to be able to sort the displayed items by either; district, cusine type and gastro type.
I have a combobox and list component on the stage. The combobox has 3 selections. How do I get it so that each selection triggers the specific xml file to load into the list component? I can't get them to communicate to each other.
The 'recommendations' dataProvider is an ArrayCollection of String, which are generally sentences about as long as this one. By setting the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties as shown, if a sentence is too long to fit on a single line, everything works fine- the row expands and the messages show on two lines, or occasionally three.
The space allocated for this panel within the entire canvas means if the total text size of 'recommendations' exceeds six lines, I need for the entire list scroll. This is also working just fine. The trouble is when using the mouse wheel to do the scrolling- Flex scrolls both the entire list and the single item where the mouse is hovering. Often this results in only the second half of a sentence being visible. Non-programmer friends I have asked to look at this noticed this, and tell me it as a problem. If a user does not notice the dual scrolling, and sees only a fragment of a sentence, it will be perceived as an error in the application.
I want to add a SimpleButton to a list item in a list component. I am getting the CellRenderer for the list item I want and using the addChild method to add the simple button. The button appears in the right spot on the list item but it doesn't function like a button. It's like the contents of the buttons first frame is added to the CellRenderer and nothing else.
When a user selects a category from the first drop down box then i want the 2nd drop down to be updated based on the selection of the first drop down. I have created multiple ArrayCollections whose names are set to the "data" values of the first drop down, for instance:
[Bindable] public var countries:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {label:"USA",data:"USA"},
