IDE :: Empty Nodes - Create A Dynamic Text Box In Which Text Show Up For One XML Node But Not For Another
Mar 24, 2009In a nutshell, I'm trying to create a dynamic text box in which text show up for one XML node but not for another, so I have some XML nodes that have info in them and others that don't. This seems like it would be a realatively easy thing to do, but I've been working on figuring out how to do so for days with no avail.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Empty Dynamic Text Is 32k?
Mar 6, 2011i followed this tutorial but when i ctrl+enter to test my swf with only 2 layers (action script + dynamic text) it says 32+kb on first frame, while it shows around 2kb in the tutorial. if i delete the dynamic text and put in some shapes with rectangle tool it goes below 1kb, but i need to have some kind of text to indicate the loading percentage.
i know it's only 30kb but i don't want to be adding 30k here and 30k there later on down the line. oh i use flash CS5 btw.

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML - Load A Text Caption Into An Empty Text Box
Feb 12, 2004Most of the threads about loading xml data into Flash text boxes and MCs involve menus or photo galleries. I'm trying to do something simpler (well, it's kinda gallery-like I guess). I have a column of 10 buttons (not dynamically generated).
Clicking on button number ones should:
a) load a jpg into an empty MC (done).
b) load a text caption into an empty text box -- no thumbnails here. All the samples I've browsed have the text loading tied into figuring out which dynamically generated thumbnail is being clicked (the old i++). I just want one at a time:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Textfield In Movieclip Stays Empty?
Sep 21, 2011I have a flash-file with a movieclip holder (export for actionscript as : holder)In that movieclip I have two textfields, instance names "title" and "content".So when I call the function useHolder(), this should put the movieclip on stage and display "titelinhoud" in the title-field, no ?
function useHolder() {
_root.attachMovie("holder","holder", 725);
_root.holder._x = holder._y = 100;
_root.holder.title.text = "titelinhoud";
}
Now it shows just the background of the movieclip (so that gets loaded on stage), the title-field stays empty (although I embedded the font), only the content-field is showing the dummy content I put in in flash.

The concept is simple: Create dynamic empty movieclips, position them, fill them, make them clickable. The code under "//////////////////////////////////////Code below here doesn't work" isn't working. The code worked fine when attempting to do this on my main scene, but I ran across some interface issues that caused me to put them into anorther MC. I understand that I only included the code for the first button, right now I would like to get at least one working.

View 1 RepliesAS2 :: Detecting Empty Input Text Fields
Mar 6, 2012I'm creating a simple quiz which has 3 questions. Each question has an input text field next to it for the user to type their answer. There is also one submit button underneath the 3 questions.
What I'm needing is some actionscript so they can only progress to the next frame by clicking the submit button once ALL 3 text fields have text in it. It doesn't have to detect any specific text, just that there is something put into each one. If there hasn't been, then it'll pop up with text asking them to complete all the questions first.

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.
