ActionScript 2.0 :: Display A Dynamic Text In A Textbox?
Mar 23, 2004
I searched the forum first, found a lot of answers, but not for this question.I need to display a dynamic text in a textbox. In my txt file there are some "&" and "+" characters that need to be displayed. So I URL encoded these characters. "&" becomes %26 and "+" becomes %2b. Strange thing is: it works perfect for the "+", but the "&" won't show nowhere...
Changing my txt file from Unicode into UTF 8 doesn't.Tried using System.useCodepage = true;

so here's what I'd like to do. I'd like to create an action that, when it's a specific day, a dynamic textbox displays a specific text. In other words, if today is th 24th of December then I'd like the dynamic textbox to say "merry christmas" or something like that...HOWEVER I need to set this actionscript up so that it reads 8 different days and the dynamic textbox holds 8 different values. How do I do this? I'm having a LOT of trouble with this..and I'm on a deadline

am currently facing an issue with displaying the % sign in my dynamic textbox which is loading a text file saved in UTF-8 format. Am using Flash CS5.
my text file contains this:
varEn=Discounts up to 10% on any goods bought today!
And my code for this part (AS 2.0):
Code:
if (lang == 'en')
numline = this.varEn;
Text1.text = numline;

ok in theory this sounds brutally easy. Just can't make it fire. On my stage I have an atm movieclip called "atm". In it I have 8 buttons l1-l4 and r1-r4. I add and remove functions based upon what is on the screen. So on the third screen I want when I hit l1 for a dynamic text box to display "20". So my thought is, place the dynamic textbox where I need it, create the instance name, and where it needs to come up use this line of code:
cashdispense.text == "20";
well the box remains blank. I've posted all my code if it makes things easier to understand.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;[code].........

I am currently working on a project for my computer programming course, creating an rpg game, and have already ran into a problem i've spent a few hours trying to fix; I have an input textbox with the instance name of "inputname". The player is supposed to put his name here and then click a button, instance name continuebtn, that will change to frame two on the scene. Frame two has a dynamic textbox with the name of "greetingtb".
greetingtb already says 'ahh so your name is ' and after that I would like to add the name that was placed into inputname. What I thought would work was create a variable with the name of playername. I dont know if i wrote this right, i declared it as my first thing in an action layer:

i think i read an article before about google or some SE teaming up with the Adobe Flash Developers in an effort to include flash pages into search results by allowing the text inside SWFs to be read by the SEs... not really sure about the details, but its something to that extent..
that's good news but what i would like to know is if spam bots can do the same and read text inside an SWF file?for example, if i have an SWF file with a dynamic textbox that has some text that contains an email address, will spam bots be able to read it?if this is the case, then i will just make the email address an image..but the benefits of having the email address inside a dynamic textbox is that it's selectable; making it easier for visitors to just copy the address as opposed to having to look at the image and type it manually...

1) Create a New Flash File (AS 3.0)
2) Put a dynamic text field there, named textBox
3) The font is Trebuchet MS - BOLD. (example... can be any bold font)
4) Using "Character Embedding", I've embedded numerals, for example.
5) In first frame, I put the code: textBox.text = "1";
6) If I compile at this point, the "1" will appear.
7) BUT.... if I put a static text box with anything typed, using Trebuchet MS - REGULAR, and compile the FLA again, the number 1 WON'T appear!

I have some button code on frame one. that looks like this:
[AS]on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
mylogin = new LoadVars();
mylogin.password = password;
mylogin.username = username;
[code]....
basically sending and recieving variables from a php page. I want to be able to specify what my textbox on frame 5 says in the onLoad statement. Is this possible?
Currently the only way I have been able to get the text to display is either to use the textbox variable and declare that in the onload statement, or to put textbox.text = mylogin.message; on the actual frame.I doubt there is a way to do it, because the actual textbox hasn't be created yet, but if there were a way, that would be nice.

There's a movieclip, lets call it myMovieClip. Inside this movieclip there is a dynamic text box, lets call this one myText. Now to change the text within this text box that is embedded in a movieclip, it's simply:
[Code]....
However, what if there is a variable, called myVariable that stores the instance name of the text box. With only one text box I know it's pointless, but for the sake of example, lets leave it simple. So, suddenly the code looks like:

I have a dynamic textfield being populated with an xml files' content. I then have a css stylesheet loaded into format the text. This all works great, but what doesn't work is the ability to bold some of the words in that text. I have both the regular and bold versions of the font embedded into the swf, I can test out just a bold block of text and it works fine. The css is also working as it will change the size of the text that I tell it to. Everything is working, but for some reason I am not able to get the bolder version of the font to display in the same text box as the regular one. I have also tried to change fonts but had the same outcome.

I have a INPUT TEXT inside a mc called "txt mc" and DYNAMIC TEXT in the main time line.I'm trying to display what's typed in the INPUT TEXT (my_Input_Txt) in the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes (my_Dyn_Txt1, my_Dyn_Txt2, my_Dyn_Txt3).Here's the code. But it won't simply work perhaps because the INPUT TEXT is inside a MC. I need to have the INPUT TEXT INSIDE THAT MC while having the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes out in the main time line.
my_Input_Txt.onChanged = function() {
my_Dyn_Txt1.text = my_Input_Txt.text;
my_Dyn_Txt2.text = my_Input_Txt.text;
my_Dyn_Txt3.text = my_Input_Txt.text;
};
