ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Attribute To Dynamic Text Box?

Jan 17, 2008

I am trying to dynamically add titles to boxes from XML.My boxes are named block1, block2 etc my XML Contents follow

<content>
<clip link="test1"/>
<clip link="test2"/>
<clip link="test3"/>
</content>

My code is as follows (including all the typical XML initiates):

Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if (loaded) {[code]....

if I remove the for Loop, and make i=1 , and trace xmlNode[i]... Then I get "test2". All seems good.Now I want that "test2" to be placed in the dynamic text field of block[i], which has an aptly named "title_txt" dynamic txt field instance name.Why does it not place the text in the text field when I run it?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Dynamic Text Box And Assign Text To Its Variable That Doesn't Work

Nov 23, 2011

I've seen similar threads but couldn't find one with the exact same issue. I've a PDF / Word document with arabic copy when I try pasting that text in flash all the joined letters start appearing as individual letters.I've tried the dynamic text box solution in which you create a dynamic text box and assign the text to its variable that doesn't work. But strangely when you write arabic in dynamic text box (with out assigning the text to the variable) and double click to select the text box and its content the text starts appearing fine .. but when published its again all individual letter.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Assign Actions To Dynamic Text?

Mar 15, 2003

I am using Flash5 to build a site. I have a main page with navigation bar to get around. The word "menu" is sitting on the right of the stage which contains the actions:

on(press) {
gotoandplay("expand")
}

which opens the nav bar on the bottom of screen. This works fine. However, the text was blurry on my site, so I switched the text from static to dynamic text, which solved the blurriness problem.

BUT, after switching the text, I discovered my "menu' button is not behaving as before.

Can one assign actions to dynamic text? If not, what do I do to still have legible text? Again, the menu bar and other links were working fine, but when switched to dynamic text, none of the navigation works.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Assign 5 Separate Dynamic Text Fields To 5 Separate Buttons?

Apr 18, 2010

What I need to do is assign 5 separate dynamic text fields to 5 seperate buttons and at the same time to those same five buttons i would like to add 5 images that i would  be able to change merely by swapping out the images in the file theyre in on the server.I would also like to get a nice transition between the images...ALSO i want to dynamically load the images for the buttons that will be used for switching from picture to picture(which im thinking i will be able to do after i know the how to do point the aforementioned things.) 

Through tutorials I've found around the net I've been able to get most of the parts together... but i get lost because what they show you for AS2 they don't for AS3 and vice versa, at least that ive seen.so... I guess my question is... would i need to set up 5 seperate dynamic text fields on the stage and then set each one of them to one of the corresponding button. If so what AS code would i need to use to do so.  And if not what would i need to do?
 
The other part of the question would be I know about the UILoader... would i be able to use it as my buttons and images, if so would i need 5 seperate ui loaders for both the Thumbnail buttons and the images or is there a way that would be better to do it?  and once i do that would i do the transitions using frames and tweens like with AS2?

Assign Functions To Dynamic Movieclips In A Loop?

Dec 8, 2009

I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands[code]...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Assign Action To Dynamic Button?

Feb 3, 2005

I am creating a dynamic group of buttons based on a string that i pass to flash file. There is no problem creating these buttons (that I do duplicating a movieclip from my library) The question is, that i need these buttons to open another page, all buttons the same, but passing a parameter. How can i assign the action to my buttons?

My frame 1 code is at this moment:

for (i=0; i<totalItems; i++) {
_root.attachMovie('loader', 'imageLoader'+i, getNextHighestDepth());
_root['imageLoader'+i]._x = 132*(i);
_root['imageLoader'+i]._y = 1;
_root['imageLoader'+i].imageLoader.loadMovie(_root['img'+i]);
}

The string that flash receives is something like

totalItems=3&img0=pic01.jpg&id0=01&img1=pic02.jpg& id1=02

and the parameter i want to pass to the new page is the value of 'id'.

Sure this will be a simple fix, and I'm just not seeing the wood for the trees. I have a movie with a movieclip called scroller_mov. Inside it are 15 movieclips named pic1 thru pic15.

My code is on one frame, on the same level as scroller_mov. Just want to dynamically assign a click action to the pic1 - pic15 movieclips! have tried hardcoded links and dynamic, but no joy! Everything else works fine.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating Dynamic Textbox And Assign Values

Jan 8, 2003

I thought the higher the depth number the closer to the viewer it was? I have created a movie which pulls back info from a database, on the original movie, once all the data was loaded, I created the required number of dynamic text boxes on the _root and everything worked perfectly. I then decided that I would need to display other information on other movie clips. So I decided to turn the movie into a movie clip, so that I could create other movie clips and load these as needed. I created a new blank movie, attached a blank movieclip (depth 0) as a container for the movie clips that will hold the different data.

I then used attachMovie(depth 1) to attach the original movieclip, which holds the database info. I then changed the original movie, so that it would create the text boxes in this movie clip(depth 3), so that when I decided to load another movie, I don't have to clear up text boxes on the root. When I run the movie, I get the background image for the data movie clip, but I don't see the text. I used trace to make sure that the text boxes were being created and the text values were assigned and they are. So why can't i see the text?

ActionScript 3.0 :: XML Parsing Not Working When Attribute Has A : In The Attribute Name?

May 13, 2009

I am having trouble parsing some xml that has a few attribute names with : characters in them. The compiler is not throwing any errors and when I trace my complete xml object out it is all there, however when I try to trace out any element or node it keeps comming up undefined. I removed the attribute names with : characters in them and everything works fine. I cant seem to target the attributes either to delete them.

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Match XML Attribute Name To Text Box Instance Name?

Jun 26, 2009

I have a list of items in XML that populate dynamic text boxes using the code below. I basically reference an attribute in the XML element to a specific instance name on a text box.

This works great for a few items, but I need to do this for several hundred, perhaps a thousand, items in an XML. Rather than copy & paste my code for each item and call out each specific text box and attribute value, is it possible to modify this code to match an instance name to the XML attribute value? In other words, one set of code that says "if the text box instance name is "x," provide the price of "x" from XML, but if the name is "y," provide the price of "y."

My xml code (3 item sample):

PHP Code:

<products>
<info_source id="SQL">
<item id="apples">$1.00</item>
<item id="oranges">$2.00</item>

[Code].....

Flex :: Textarea Text Attribute But Still Renders As Html

Mar 24, 2010

if you feed the textarea text attribute with an tag that has a valid src url, then for some reason flex will try to render everything as html.Eg, try this:<mx:TextArea id="textArea" width="100%" height="90%" text="<img src='http://url-to-a-valid-img"/> and instead of it rendering it as raw text it will render it as an html.
