I am having a problem with german characters. I cant figure out why it is not applying the css as well. The xml is coded in <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> I have included both fla and xml. You will find the german text on line 67 /68 starting with " <view viewname"
View 3 RepliesI'm having problems with Flex (3.5) auto converting "ü" into a "u". As soon as I paste the character in, it transforms.Is there something I need to turn on to enable these other character sets? I thought Flex supported UTF-8?
View 6 RepliesI found out that if XML file's attribute contains German special chars (chars with umlaut, like:..) then I get "undefined" answer when I try to read an attributes value. I tryed to change XML file encoding to: "UTF-8" and "iso-8859-1" but still no luck. "system.useCodepage = true;
View 2 RepliesI downloaded a flash template and I need to add special characters (Greek Language) to: fonts.fla. After editing the file the flash is not loading anymore.
Notice : This is an AS3 project and you can only add AS3 SWF files When publishing your custom SWF file be sure to add this method to your actionscript file:
public function startModule():void { //inside this method you can start your transitions to show the content }
I have a text file that contains variables that get pulled into my flash file dynamically. It leaves out random letters throughout the text when it is displayed in the SWF.I'm at my breaking point and I know I am probably missing something simple at this point.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a dictionary which has been created in XML and loads into Flash. The characters all work in textfields etc but when it comes to sorting the array alphabetically I'm hitting problems with them.
[Code]...
in the dictionary function I basically push the words, their translations, gender etc into the array creating a mulitdimensional array. I'm using the following to sort the array which is sorting numerically first then alphabetically and is case insensitve.
allWords.sortOn("engWord", Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);
displayArray(allWords);
My problem is that all words beginning with �, � etc appear at the end of the array. How can I get "ï" to have the same weight as "a" and "ï" to have the same weight as "i" etc.
this is my xml file
Code:
<game>
<question type="image">

I am having issue with my created flash, it can't handle chinese characters? is there some way i can handle this thru code? or should there be any font or language pack installed
View 3 Replies1) Each field in the form only allows 3 characters and no special characters such as @ _ ! . , etc... 2) When the user goes to the next field in the form, the previous field appears blank but the when clicking on that again, the original text appears. 3) When submitting the form, it just keeps saying "in progress" and never shows the confirmation text nor does the email get sent. There is an HTML file included with this form but I am not sure if I need to put that in as I have embedded this form into an SWF file so I don't think I need that code but let me know if I am wrong about this. I am posting both the AS code and PHP code below..

If I load a txt file into my flash movie using the following...
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {

I get my text imported and it splits it every time the letter 'a' is found. That's fine.
How would I go about counting the number of times that 'a' or 'and' (for example) featured in the text?

View 2 Repliesi'm trying to create some code which would create instances of arbitrary classes.for example... i'm making a game which will be hosted on a site, and characters i create over time will eventually be selectable for use in game. but instead of uploading an entirely new game whenever i decide to add a new character, i'd prefer to just update an xml file listing the characters, as well as an swf file for each character class.so during actual runtime, i'd have to create instances of these characters.... but i wouldn't necesarily know which character class constructor i'd be creating.... it would depend on who the user selects.if it were up to me, i'd be able to decide what class instance i'd like to make from a string variable (taken from xml).like this maybe...
var classname:String = "CharacterOne()";
var character:Object = new classname;
....instead of having to write: var character:CharacterOne = new CharacterOne();

when i run the .swf file locally it works, but if i run it when it's embedded on an html page, it doesn't work.
I ran in to a problem I could not solve for a very long time While I was using Actionscript 3 in order to change the text of a classic text object in my .fla flash file, I did not see any change in my text field, and noticed that it doesn't display any numbers and some other characters (just some specific letters DID work).
View 1 RepliesI saw most of the games on facebook having a 3D character that you can dress up and rotate perfectly. Does flash CS4 have the power to do this? If yes, then can anyone help me or give me a link to a tutorial or any site out there that discuss this kind of tech
View 2 RepliesI've been searching all morning for this solution and can't find any. The closest one is this:[URL]..But it won't work for me. I have an XML that has some characters in Chinese, I can use any of these (one with the characters directly there, and the other with the characters in html)[URL]..The problem is that I can't display the characters on a Flash dynamic text box..
I have tried with sans font, trbuchet, tahoma, all embeding all of the chinese options...
System.usecodePage true and false, and nothing... html enabled and disabled...
I have created a dynamic text box which is used to put the length of a sound clip (which is worked out using AS2).
I want to use a font which isn't standard - VAGRounded, so I need to embed the characters.
If I select Family : VAGRounded and Style : thin then all is well. Ditto if I pick style:light but if I pick Style:bold or Style:black then the nothing displays
In my windows font folder all 4 appear to exist.
I notice that exactly the same appears to happen with the times font too (except some of the family options are different)
When I open the font-mapping box it tells me that there aer some fonts that I can't use but there is not list of what they are.
I've imported a font as a font symbol. In its linkage I selected export for actionscript.This works for my dynamic text. However I've noticed that not all characters are embedded.See attached example.On top I've got a static textfield with the following text:â–ª Some text with a square in front of itAt the bottom a dynamic textfield with the following code:
Code:
mytext.html = true;
mytext.embedFonts = true;

View 1 RepliesI am working on a Flex app that has a MySQL database. Data is retrieved from the DB using PHP then I am using AMFPHP to pass the data on to FlexThe problem that I am having is that the data is being copied from Word documents which sometimes result in some of the more unusual characters are not displaying properly. For example, Word uses different characters for starting and ending double quotes instead of just " (the standard double quotes). Another example is the long dash instead of -.All of these characters result in one or more accented capital A characters appearing instead. Not only that, each time the document is saved, the characters are replaced again resulting in an ever-increasing number of these accented A's appearing.
Doing a search and replace for each troublesome character to swap it for one of the none characters seems to work but obviously this requires compiling a list of all the characters that may appear and means there is scope for this continuing as new characters are used for the first time. It also seems like a bit of a brute force way of getting round the problem rather than a proper solution.Does anyone know what causes this and have any good workarounds / fixes? I have had similar problems when using utf-8 characters in html documents that aren't set to use utf-8. Is this the same thing and if so, how do I get flex to use utf-8?
I have this regular expression to get urls:
(((ht|f)tp(s?))://)?(www.|[a-zA-Z].)[a-zA-Z0-9-.]+.(com|edu|gov|mil|net|org|biz|info|name|museum|us|ca|uk)(:[0-9]+)*(/($|[a-zA-Z0-9.,;?'+&%$#=~_-]+))*
And I want to modify it so that when I call to make an array of the matched strings it will get everything before it as well.
I has problem displaying T with a comma under it and S with a comma under it.
I've tried to send it encoded as UTF-8, ISO-8859-1/2 but it does not display in flash.
The PHP script creates the XML with DOMDocument class.[URL]... I need to find a way to display these characters.
I have a dynamic textbox in flash called vt. It has attached to it the following in a class file:
vt.text = xml.video.@vt[cv];
and pulls the information from an XML File:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<playlist>
<video src='videos/video1.flv' vt='abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'/>
</playlist>
Now for some reason only the letters a d g i l n o will actually display when tested with all the alphabet above.
UPDATE: Solved - Just needed to change the textbox AA to Use Device Fonts :) (New user cant answer my own question)
How do I remove the last 4 characters in a string?
'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'to'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuv'
Answer: slice(0,-4)
By sending the below text block from Flash there are problems with the through PHP created XML output.

I think some of the characters causing the problem. How to fix this problem?
I am looking for a way to escape utf-8 charachters using actionscript 2? As far as I know, in flash it uses utf-16 while on javascript it uses utf-8. I am looking for a similar escaping method.
