ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Loading, Dynamic Buttons, Dynamic Text Fields?

Jun 7, 2006

I can't get the code to "know" which of the dynamic thumbnails has been clicked (by "know", I mean return an index value, say 0 through 7 if there are 8 projects, that I can use to access that particular project in the array of 8 projects in the rest of the code)... So if the third movieclip thumbnail were clicked, I'd like "2" to come up somehow... I've tried this code, which is kind of lame, I know, based off of the idea of each of the thumbnail movieclips' names ending in their index number:

Code:
//"this" is the button that was pressed; would return a string ending in
//thumberMC_<number of whichever movieclip thumb was clicked>
var: testString:String = this;

[code]....

Lastly, there's a dynamic textfield I'm trying to create that never shows up for some reason. Again, you could see in the FLA (in the "createDrawer" function around line 424).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading New Dynamic Text From A Dynamic Text Box

Jan 28, 2004

I'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.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Multiple Text Into Dynamic Text Field?

Feb 22, 2009

this is should be pretty simple but I have had a lot of trouble figuring this out..

I have one dynamic text field called "content_txt"
I have 3 buttons with 3 different instance names (btn1 btn2 btn3)
I have 3 text documents in a folder (1.txt 2.txt 3.txt)

I am able to have 1.txt loaded into content_txt, but here is the problem.

I would like btn2 to load 2.txt and btn3 to load 3.txt into content_txt.

I have looked for an answer for this problem (and found many close answers) but when I try and make my code fit, it just doesn't work. I'm really new to this so any help would be amazing. (or if this has been answered somewhere else and I have missed it..

ActionScript 1/2 :: Loading Xml Into Dynamic Text Field?

Jul 8, 2009

I have an xml feed generated from our CMS. It sends lot availability to a flash map. The map has some buttons that will change color based on availability. There is also a tooltip that I would like to display 2 more fields that the xml is sending....price and model number. I am not sure how to get this to work when one rolls over each individual lot button.This is the actionscript in each of the 4 neighborhood frames:var _xml:XML = new XML(); _xml.ignoreWhite = true;_xml.onLoad = myLoad;var child = _xml;
 
function myLoad(ok){if (ok == true) {// for each node in the xml filevar index =0;
 while (index < _xml.firstChild.childNodes.length){//var objecttitle = _xml.childNodes[0].childNodes[index].childNodes[0].childnodes[0].node Value;var objecttitle = [code]....
 
What do I have to do to get the price and model name into the dynamic text fields in the tooltip whenever one rolls over that unique button.

Loading Dynamic Images And Text Flow

Aug 17, 2009

I have a project where I'm loading some HTML into an HTML-enabled dynamic textbox, along with some images, using the img tag. The problem I have is that no matter what I do, the text tries to flow down one side of the image (depending on whether I have the image set to align 'left' or 'right'). I don't want this. I want the text to sit under the image, not flow around the side. I've tried everything I can think of, and I just can't seem to achieve this.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Dynamic Text Onto Another Level?

Jul 19, 2004

I have figured out how to randomly load and fade in poems from text files. Only, after trying to add additional functionality, namely, an index from which visitors may choose a poem to load, I have run into problems. To put it simply, I can't figure out how to modify the code he provided to load text onto lvl0 so far. Here's some sample code I placed on the first button, which is an mc inside an mc (and that mc is placed on the stage, which is a separate swf loaded on an upper level by lvl0):

Code:

on (release){
var poem = new LoadVars();
poem.onLoad = function(ok) {

[code]....

Here's the url for the files [URL] Main.swf is the main site, which provides a button labeled "INDEX". PoemIndex.fla is the source for the swf loaded when the user clicks the INDEX button. "mcButtons" holds all the buttons for each individual poem (wish I didn't have to hard code all of it), and I've also provided "poem1.txt", for testing purposes.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Dynamic Text With A Scroll Bar?

Aug 1, 2005

I have a dynamic text content which displays content read from an XML. I have used the UI Component Scroll bar to scroll through content longer than the text field area. To use it so as to scroll as per the content size the control is sent to another frame so as to get refreshed. How ever the scroll appears default at the text area even when there is no need of one.

My application has three frames. on the first frame:

initially at start of the program:

scroller._visible = false; ( scroller is the instance name for the UI
Component scroll )

after the words to display on the text area are extracted from the XML into meaning_txt following is the action provided:

i'm trying to load from one text file, formatted in the Shorts=blahblah&Standup=nownow&Tv=yaddayadda way to 3 text files with instance names of loadedInfo, loadedInfo2 and loadedInfo3 respectively, all are html text fields and need to link to frames (separate ones, but i'll get into that later... that's a little cart in front of the horse...). i am using this actionscript to call the files in:

and am getting a syntax error message for the first line, the myData=new LoadVars bit... i have tried multiple ways of doing the myData method and only errors. seems like others have had success with this.. any help? i've looked all over and have not found a solution...part 2, for brave souls. so, from the txt file i want to load into separate frames (either 2 iframes or an iframe and a dynamic text field).. nothing i've tried with this has been working either. i think this is more of an html formatting issue. tried to add a line of javascript, but flash wasn't having it.

ActionScript 2.0 :: F8 - Loading Dynamic Text Using For Loop

Dec 5, 2008

I'm creating a searchable database in Flash where all the content loads dynamically from external sources. the main interface is columns of buttons where clicking in the first column sends the user to a named frame with a second column of buttons, then onto the third column then the final content is loaded into a new movie clip. The interface uses just one button(a movie clip) and the columns of buttons are created with a duplicateMovieClip function. that part works fine. However I can't get the button labels to load from an external text file even though I'm using the explicit button names, and I can't get the buttons to react to clicks even though they're "hot", i.e., the cursor changes when I mouse over them. the button behaviors use the dynamic button names.

Here's my code:
//creates a load Variables object
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("text/patent01NumbersText.txt");
//this makes a column of duplicate button movie clips
for (i=0;i<13;i++){

After quite a bit of hair-pulling elsewhere on the web, I finally found "Loading Text from External Sources," which talks about loading multiple text files into a dynamic scrolling field.Url...Ok, got that to work great; now the problem I'm having is that my text is longer than the example.So when I click on my second text file, it loads scrolled to the same position as I scrolled to on the first text file.In other words, my text files aren't loading to the top of the dynamic text field...they're loading into the middle after the first button is clicked.

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Dynamic URL Loading From An Input Text Field?

So I'm working with flash CS3 and AS2. I added a Loader component and a

It all works well and stuff, but when I turned "imagetext" into an input text field, it gives me an error message
