ActionScript 1/2 :: Use Flash As Interface For Php Unselectable Text?
Dec 28, 2010I am developing a test system and want to allow the users to access the questions in the database without the ability to copy them. A php file intermediates the access with the database. There a couple of links to certain sections of questions and then links to certain pages. Is there a possibility to put this php content in a flash frame and deactivate the possibility to select text?
View 5 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Declaring Dynamic Vars Locally?
Jul 23, 2009Although I have a long experience with AS2, I am just stepping in AS3 now. As should be expected, I have bumped a few issues here and there, that really puzzles me.
One of them is the way to correctly name a variable dynamically. In AS2, as far as I know the only way to do that is with _root, like that:
Code:
for (var z=0;z<=5;z++)
_root["myvar"+z] = z;
I have used quite the same way to do that in AS3, like that:
Code:
for (var z=0;z<=5;z++)
root["myvar"+z] = z;
However, it doesnt seem to be too good, because it just allows me to create global variables. What if I want to create local vars into the function? I tried to remove the "root" and use "var" statement but ActionScript doesnt like that (it tells me that there is an identifier missing before the left bracket):
Code:
for (var z=0;z<=5;z++)
var ["myvar"+z]:Number = z; // Flash yelds when I try that!
What is the trick to do that... or simply THERE IS NOT a way to do that, but always declare dynamic vars as public??

Jan 28, 2004I'm relatively new to Actionscript, in fact, I just figured out today how to load text from an external source. I have another issue that I'm not sure how to handle. I have buttons for my main nav, a main text box, and a mini text box (both text boxes are loaded dynamically from external files). I want to have the mini text box load new external text files in the main text box. For instance, I have a button for music, which loads a list of songs in the mini text box. I want to be able to click on the name of one of the songs and have it load the lyrics in the main text box. I'm sure it's simple, I'm just new.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text Box / Xml Content - Text Is Too Close To Border Of Text Box?
Nov 28, 2006If you take a look at my flash movie you will see that I have draggable movie clips, which contain dynamic text fields. These text fields contain text drawn in from a simple xml document. The problem I have is that the text in the text fields is hedged right next to the border of the autosized text box. This makes them look untidy and in the worst case difficult to read. I wonder how I can add some margin to the left and right of the text to fill in some space.The code which formats the text boxes is:
with (main["dragAct"+i].dragActText) {
text = actText[i+1];
background = true;

View 1 RepliesAS3 :: Setting A Dynamic Position For A Text Field Relative To Another Dynamic Text Field
Dec 8, 2010I'm creating an XML-driven pie chart in AS3 with 2 text boxes in each pie slice. Both text fields are dynamic in the sense that they are populated by the XML doc and then told where to place themselves in the AS3. I've got them both using the same x and y position to place themselves at the moment (which of course puts them right one top of each other), but I'd like to make one of the fields (which acts like a label or a title to the larger number and % text field) place itself in a particular spot around the other text field. The result I'm looking for is to have the smaller "title" text field appear approximately 5 pixels above and left-justified to the larger "percentage" field.
Anyway, here are two sections of code that I've currently got. The first chunk, for the Tags portion, sets the position for the "percentage" text field using a good old x and y method. The second chunk, for Titles, is setting the position for the smaller "title" text.
//evaluate tags
private function evaluateTags():void{

ActionScript 3.0 :: Send Data From Dynamic Text Field On Stage To Dynamic Textfield In Mc?
Sep 28, 2010I 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?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text In Button Nested In Dynamic Movie Clip?
Jan 23, 2010I've made a flash movie which will load four movie clips at runtime. Actually, the number of movie clips will depend upon number of "NODE" in XML file. Keeping XML file thing aside, I've tried hardcoded values; 4. Let me describe you the structure very well:
There is a main empty movie clip, instance name "mc_scroll" which will be only item on stage. In this movie clip, another movie clip whose identifier name is "blueMovie" will be loaded dynamically. Inside this "blueMovie" MC, there is a button instance name is "blueButton" and inside this button there is a "Dynamic Text" field instance name is "btn_text".
Phewww.. so long chain... inshort:
mc_scroll->blueMovie->blueButton->btn_text
Now, I can load 4 or any number of "blueMovie" inside "mc_scroll". But I also want to set the button text for each button inside each MC!! I'm sure you guys are getting what I want to do. But its not working. Below is the code:
Code:
//INSIDE THE MAIN TIME LINE
for(i=0; i<4; i++)
{

how to assign the text dynamically which is inside a button and this button inside a MC which is created dynamically inside a main MC!

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Loading, Dynamic Buttons, Dynamic Text Fields?
Jun 7, 2006I can't get the code to "know" which of the dynamic thumbnails has been clicked (by "know", I mean return an index value, say 0 through 7 if there are 8 projects, that I can use to access that particular project in the array of 8 projects in the rest of the code)... So if the third movieclip thumbnail were clicked, I'd like "2" to come up somehow... I've tried this code, which is kind of lame, I know, based off of the idea of each of the thumbnail movieclips' names ending in their index number:
Code:
//"this" is the button that was pressed; would return a string ending in
//thumberMC_<number of whichever movieclip thumb was clicked>
var: testString:String = this;

Dec 21, 2011I want to declare on multiple numerated variables like this:
