View 8 RepliesHow do you get dynamic text to show up within a specific movie clip instead of simply on the stage?
I've created a dynamic text field and given it an instance name (banner_txt). I'd like to use a variable to hold the .text info for this field, that way the banner's label can change when people go to a new section of my website.
I need to show the amount of times the counter has been moved along the board, ie how many turns the player has.
the dynamic text box is called 'moves' and the counter is a button which is pressed for each move. Therefore, it would need to be added to the onRelease function.
I'm having trouble getting an external.swf to show dynamic text in the parent swf. When I run the external swf by itself the text shows up fine, but when I try to load it into another swf using the MovieClipLoader the dynamic text doesn't show up.

I'm currently trying to work out a method to highlight specific areas of text within a dynamic text field at runtime. The method I've been toying with so far has been the use of CSS highlighting, but have not seemed to have any luck thusfar. What I'm attempting to do is to illustrate, to students, sections within a passage of text pertaining to correct methods of source referencing (source in terms of bibilographical references), and so am essentially trying to change the background colour of sections of text specified at runtime.Here's some code I've thrown together to test the CSS theory:
PHP Code:
var highlightstyle = 'span.highlight { background-color:yellow }';var txt = '<p><span class="highlight">highlighted text</span> no highlighted text<span class="highl

In 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. I'm working on a template for my portfolio gallery at: [URL] I've linked pdfs to just some of the images in my modified xml slideshow from the tutorial using the following code from this forum:

I am using a dynamic text field to show html formatted text from .txt files. I have set the html property both in the properties panel and in AS, and it mostly works. All html formatting show up just fine, except for when "&" is used. Flash CS3 documentation indicates that & is supported, so.? All text after the & does not appear: the only text loaded is that that comes before it. I am using CS3, AS2, publishing in Flash Player 9. Sorry if this problem has been addressed elsewhere, but I've had no luck with my searches.

View 6 RepliesI want to do a separate mouse over event for every word inside a text.
or at least get the string below the mouse cursor.
Is it possible (if so how) to find out what word the cursor/mouse is over when it is moving over a < mx:Text > component?So for example as the user moves the mouse along a sentence (inside text component), each word will highlight as they go (I know you can highlight while pressing the mouse button down - but that not how I wish to do it).
View 2 RepliesI used to have a little text panel (that sat with the color, swatches, and align panels) that I was able to open up and edit text size, color, underline, etc with. It had a much better text editing ability then the properties panel, seeing as the properties panel does not even bother to allow me to underline text or to highlight and edit a single word in a whole text box. Now I don't have it, I can't find the damn thing anywhere, and I want it back. How can I get it?
View 1 RepliesI am having a few problems atm with flash and wondering whether I am asking too much from flash or whether I am being stupid. Basically what I am trying to achieve is a box that is 300px by 300 px, within that box I have some text that I would like to place inside. As I would like to be able to regularly update this box (its a news feed) I have linked it too a .txt file. The problems that I have come across is that flash seems to have a limit on the amount of text it will allow in a dynamic text field. As even tho I have more text in my txt document, its is not displayed. This is how I have come to the presumtion that flash must be limiting the amount of text.

View 2 RepliesI have a submit button that I'm pulling in from XML.
It needs to be XML because it is translated.
Therefore... the length is varying depending on the language.
I simply want to add an arrow to the end of the word using Webdings #4 (it looks like a solid arrow, not like > but solid)..

View 2 RepliesI followed the tutorial [URL] and it works perfect. But I wanna go a step further, how do I link a word in the external text file? It seems that html code <a href="www.me.com">CLICK</a> doesn't show as a link, but exactly as text.

I'm using the VideoPlayer component in flex 4 to display a clip. I have about 3 or 4 notes that I want to appear at specific points of the video, sort of like caption but not quite. I'm trying to figure out how to use VideoPlayer time to cause another element to appear (text area with the note in it), but can't seem to get it.
