I am trying to clear an input text field once reset is pressed.
I currently have
on (release) {
_root.textfield="";
}
on the reset button
and on the 1st frame of the reset button
function clearForm() {
textfield.text="";
}
Do I need both? I have tried 1 without the other and still no results.
I'm making a calculator using Flash MX that works the same way as the basic calculator found on windows (not the scientific one). But having the user input a number, store it as a variable, store which function the user wants to perform and clear the text field then store the new input in the same text field as a different variable and multiply or add or divide or subtract the 2 numbers and getting the equals sign to display the answer when clicked is harder than I thought it would be.

I'm loading data in to textbox1 and on click I load more data in to textbox1 by replacing the existing data. Every time I load data there are hyperlinks in the text. Now I need to clear all the hyperlinks that was there when I click my next button to load more data. How can I clear all the links within the textbox when I click a button?
e,g,
//1st load

I've got a movieclip that I'm using as a button that has two frames acting as an active and unactive state. Inside the movieclip is a dynamic text field.
ActionScript Code:
letterA.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, selectButton);
letterA.letterText.text = "A";
letterA.buttonMode = true;
[Code]....
Whenever I click on the button, it goes to the next frame, but the dynamic text filed loses the value I set in actionscript and gets reset to its default value.
Trough a button action I want to change the contents of a dynamic text field (i have five buttons in total). I made this textfield style bold, and added a (inner) shadow filter to it. Everytime a certain button gets clicked the content and colour of the textfield change. I want to retain the style and filter. However, while the colour change goes correct, the style and filter go back to regular..Through a coincidence i discovered that if I append the textfield in stead of replacing it entirely the transitions goes correctly.[code]In summary if i click the button with the append text action to it first, everything goes well..however when i click the buttons containing the replace text action first the style of the dynamic text field goes back to regular.
View 7 RepliesI am building an interactive page where the user must type text in a text input box and then press Enter or click a hotspot on the page to proceed. I check the inputtext to see if it is the correct answer, and if it is, they advance to the next page. If it is not correct, they get incorrect feedback and they have to try again. Trying again is causing me problems because in is no longer "wkspcapt.substr(254, 9)". Here is the code I have so far. I think what I need to to is clear out whatever has been typed, but I am missing how to do it.
//check for correct key entry of "loan12345"
function checkCaption(Boolean):Void {
trace("inside checkCaption funtion");

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 am using Flash builder 4 to both build and manage (via cvs) projects. In recent days my designer has been having trouble committing to CVS, leaving a project blocked. I have troubleshooted troubleshot tested CVS and it is working fine (others can commit and retrieve without a hitch).
in an effort to start from scratch - I have removed the flash builder application (dragging it to the trash, its a Mac) as well as using the uninstaller (which does not work as well as I would have thought), but on reinstall - all preferences are still there - CVS connection and all.
is there a file or set of files I can delete to reset all of the prefs for Flash Builder (built on eclipse if that helps)?
