i have 2 questions.
1: how do i create a "input text box" that changes a variable?
how to creat the ground he is gonna walk on (right now he is just walking in the air) so what are the codes for making a box that "egon" (the guy in my mini-game) can walk on??
i created an input text box that puts the users input into a global variable, but when i test it it gives me not only what i have typed in but all the html formatting for the font that my input text box has on it.I only want the text that i have typed in to go into the variable but the wackload of html is going in there too. ive tried a few different things, rewriting my code, recreating the text box, changing settings, dont know what im missing.

View 3 RepliesI need to create a Flash Quiz with the following:
1.) A page with a question, including a "submit" button, and an Input Text field where the user can type in his answer.
2.) A page with "Correct" and a page with "Incorrect".I have already gotten the pages and graphics created. But for the life of me my Action script is not working. The tutorials I have looked at would help me if I were making the quiz one total page where when you answered the question there would be a comment that came up, but that's not the case.
I'm using ActionScript 2.0 with Flash CS4 Professional, andI'm running into conflicting info on how to do this depending onwhich Flash book I'm looking at (and is that really a surprise?).1) I want the user to type text into a text field and thenFlash places what they've typed into a variable.So I created a text field of the type 'Input Text' andassigned this variable 'myInput'2) When the user presses a button, I want Flash to look atwhat is in the variable. THEN... If they have typed the correctword, they are sent to frame 19. If they type anything else, theyare sent to frame 38.In this example, the correct word is: "move"So, I placed this script on the button:
on (release) {
trace(myInput);
if (myInput = "move") {
[code]........
Is it possible to have the value of some string variable bound to the text inside a text input control? To clarify, whatever text was entered into the text input would be stored as the value of the variable.
View 3 Repliesi have an 'input text' box named "playernameinput".
i want the text inputted into that field to be loaded into a variable and sent to a php file. the 'timeLeft' field is correct and is updating in the mysql database but i cant for the life of me figure out how to get the text from the input box into the 'variables.username'.
ActionScript Code:
var str = timeLeft;
var playername:String = playernameinput.text;

I'm new to ActionScript 3.I have 2 frames. On the first frame two numbers are randomly generated and the user must enter their sum into the input text field (instance name: inTxt). They then click the OK button. On the solve frame their solution is checked against the correct answer.The problem is I can't access their solution from the input text field. I tried tracing it and get null. What am I missing?[code]
View 5 Repliesbe a really obvious question but does anyone know how to convert input text to a variable?At the moment I have a textArea component and want to make the user's input text a variable so I can use it later. can get a trace on the input text with "trace(mytext.text)" but I just don't know how to make it a variable
View 3 RepliesHere is what I'm doing (using AS 2.0)I'm generating some XML based on parameters passed in a URLOn Frame One, I have an input text box. I would like whatever the user inputs in that text box to pass into the URL. For example, if I had a text box that said ZIPCODE: _________ I'd like that zip code to be passed into the URL
Code:
stop();
this.btn_send.onRelease = function() {

I have an Input Text box that has a variable assigned to it.The user is to input a number, and then it is submitted with a button that does a simple conditional if statement check. I noticed that the if statement is constantly failing because the variable is tracing back as HTML.The trace of the variable looks like this:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#0066CC" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">4</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>
The variable should simply be the number 4 without all the HTML jibberish.The "Render text as HTML" is not on for the Input Text box.I am completely baffled and at a complete loss... any ideas of what is happening here?!Below is the exact code I am using...
TIMELINE
numA = random(10)
numB = random(10)[code]....

I have an input field with the var name "chosenloc" in the same scope as the timeline I'm working in. I've set the input field var in code, on the fly, and by entering a number right into the field.
I am working on a line rider/ free rider style game in flash (which is coming along quite nicely ). For the whole night I've been trying to create a way to save and load data simply off text and have finally come up with a basic solution for it! I have my information all stored into an array neatly to be later used with the function lineTo upon load. My problem here is that when I actually input the data into the textbox to be picked up by the load button it does not draw the lines like its supposed to.My load button has the following code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
onRelease = function() {
var points = new Array(_root.xInput);[code]......
I have a string of text, but within this text I want to input a variable at a specific portion of the text. Now this string of text is taken from an XML file. So the XML file would look like this for example:
Code:
<name>Sweep</name>
<type>ATK</type>
<target>AoE-EN</target>
<caste>Warrior</caste>
<desc>"This is a text"+temp.alias+"hey"</desc>
The <desc> is an example of a way I tried to make it work. What I want to happen is when I display the desc in my flash file, it inputs the alias (which in the xml is the name) of the item. In PHP this could be doing using EVAL() but I notice the support for that type of function is removed in AS3.
I have created an array of input text fields from a custom class(TextBox). When the user enters something into a text box, I want to compare it the expected answer (answers:Array). I can't get the keyPressed function to read the input text. When I trace box[boxnum].text it says "undefined". What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?

I have an input box with a variable name. When the user enters some text and presses a button that variable is sent to a php file using the GET method. Then the info is put into a database. When I checked my database, I found that a load of styling html tags has been included. I want for my input text box to have styled text, but I don't want that styling /html tags to be sent to the php file. I know I could use strip_tags in php to get rid of the html tags, but surely there's a way of not sending the tags at all, just the text content of my variable?

I have a text input field called 'phone' and a button with the GetUrl function. Button script looks like this:
on (release){getURL("http://url/sendlink.page?country=160&phone=phone&keyword=33&msgtype=26", "", "POST");}
First of all when I press the button nothing happens. When I paste the link directly into my browser everythinbg works as it should. But not from flash file.
adding the 'phone' variable into the hyperlink. What do I write? Something like this: [URL]
how to take what a user inputs into a s:TextInput and use that as a variable in a JSON data request? Basically, I want to have a user enter a search term, like "math" and then have that placed into a variable so I can use it in a JSON request. Something like public var q:String, except that my search box (and hence user input) is on another "view" of the application. I've just started with Flex Mobile applications and I might be way out of my league.

I'm trying to create an input text field that someone can type in, then by clicking a button, the font changes.

can this be done in as 2 ?? im using flash 8
I've been looking everywhere and I can't figure this out. I want an empty text entry box, where you type in a word and hit enter. When you hit enter, it adds this word to an array. The array shouldn't have a limit of the number of words allowed.

View 5 RepliesI tried to create a input text that asks the user to enter a value then i wanted that value to be compared with another var by an if statement but when it gets to that part it always goes to the else condition. I did check the values by making the flash view, they are the same but its still not running as i want it to.
anyways ill leave you with the code :
variables:
btn: a button i created
maq: an empty string that stores the value of the input text
GPA.text: name of the input text
V3: is just a dynamic text to let me know if the condition is met or not
Code:
stop();
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,checker);
function checker(Event:MouseEvent):void
