ActionScript 2.0 :: Html Formatting Broken When 'createTextField'-ing?

Dec 16, 2007

Basically I'm getting text from xml and placing it in a text field that is created inside a movie clip via movieClip.createTextField. I've got the odd bold word to deal with within standard body text, so I'm putting those inside the <b> html tags. My CDATA is set up fine and everything works perfectly when I'm just placing a textField on the stage in flash and enabling html rendering in the properties and etc, BUT when I create the textField in actionscript on a movie clip (because I'm using the height of the movie clip as the scrollable height) the text isn't actually bolded, the tags are just rendered as if they were any other text.As far as I can tell I've got my textField.html, textField.multiline and textField.wordWrap properties set correctly, so I'm not sure what's happening.

ActionScript 2.0 :: FMX - External Xml Broken By Html Tags?

Jun 28, 2004

I am having a little trouble figuring out how to solve this issue.I am loading an external xml into flash. The parsing works perfectly except for the fact that I can't display the text between html tags.Flash interprets the html tag as an xml tag so it brakes the text chain. It just doesn't display the text after that in that node.It didn't work with textField.html properties set to true.

ActionScript 2.0 :: HTML Text Formatting Through Flash

Mar 13, 2003

I know that with actionscript you can assign certain formating to the HTML text that you use within your Flash animation.

My question is if you can also use actionscript to do the following.

In HTML when you assign as FONT format... font face="verdana,arial" when the user does not have verdana installed, the browser automatically choses Arial (or whatever font you indicated and available on users system) as font to use.

Is the same thing possible within Flash HTML text?

Obviously to prevent that when people don't have the particular font you use for your HTML text, everything screws up

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Text Not Accepting HTML Formatting?

Oct 29, 2009

I am linking to an external text file, (.txt), and I am working in Flash CS3, Actionscript 3.0, and attempting to use dynamic HTML coding.The scroll bars work, but all the text after <font size=.... doesn't show up. Below is my actionscript for the text window:

var content_req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("agenda.txt");
var content_ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader(content_req);
content_ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);

[code]...

The Lynda book I am using doesn't explain very much about the html coding beyond adding a few <it> and <b>. When I use them they show up fine. But when I place this text in the .txt file:

<font size=14> <align=left> Blah Blah Blah </font></align>

Nothing shows up! When I take away the <font size> al the text reappears, yet unformatted.

I have embedded all of the characters and glyphs into the dynamic text field. Nothing seems to be working for several of the text attributes which are present in the .txt file I'm loading.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Html-formatting Of Dynamic Text Field With Embedded Font?

Sep 19, 2006

If you're creating a htmlText field via the createTextField method, is there a way to get html formatting like <b></b> to show up if you are also embedding a font? I'm guessing not, since you can only embed a single font in a TextFormat, and you would have to embed both italic and bold variants too to make it work. Is this true?Maybe I'm better off creating a generic text field on the stage with both bold and italics embedded, and use the attachMovie method instead?This is my code:

ActionScript Code:
myformat = new TextFormat();
myformat.font = "Akzidenz_Grotesk_BE_Light";

ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField And TextArea Component Are Very Limited In Displaying And Formatting HTML Pages

Mar 25, 2009

i'm working on a game project and i got some trouble with displaying stuff in the game Launcher. everything is in AS3. I'm actually looking to achieve almost the same results as the World of Warcraft launcher with a news section. the way i think to work it is that i create either a textArea component or a textfield and display html page in it. This html page could contain text, image and flash SWF.

but here's the problem, textField and textArea component are very limited in displaying and formating HTML pages. So i don't know if i should continue to search and try developping this way or find another way for displaying dynamic stuff that can be easily updated.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Formatting Html Text In A Dynamic Text Field

Jul 4, 2009

I'm building this flash site for a friend and he wants to be able to edit the contents and maintain the site by himself later on. So naturally, I used a dynamic text field that uses URLloader to link to an external html, dandy. Problem is, my friend wants to use dreamweaver to edit the contents of html (or even just a word document exported as html) and it's just driving him nuts because the text look nothing like that way it did in DW when it's loaded into the dynamic text field (extra spacing and line break popping up randomly everywhere). Is there an alternative solution other then telling him to just edit it in notepad? What if I switch over to XML?
