ActionScript 2.0 :: Removing Punctuation From A String In A Fill-in-the-blank Quiz?
Apr 16, 2010
I'm creating a fill-in-the-blank quiz in AS 2.0 and would like to make the comparison between the correct and submitted answer a little less harsh during the comparison. The quiz actually consists of memorizing a sentence or two from say a poem and I'd like to not include any errors of punctuation due to a misplaced or missed comma, exclamation pt or period. as long as the spelling is good then the user should get the correct answer. Below is a little snippet:

I am creating a game, where you type in the answer in the answer box, and click "go" to get to the next level. I have been playing around with some code,but I keep getting errors, and everything I have tried is not working.Here is the basic code I have been playing with (without any of my changes):

function compareQuestion1(e:Event):void

Anyone know where to start thinking about logic for an XML quiz with multiple correct answers, that when the user gets the question right, that question is removed from the random array of questions so we never need to answer it again?

The following are two screenshots of something I'd like to create:
Notice how each 'blank' is a drop-down menu. If a user selects the correct one the text in the drop-down becomes green and a box appears at the bottom that tells them they got it right. As soon as they go to select a new one the box disappears and re-appears with a message saying either they got the next one right or wrong. If they get it wrong it turns red. There is no backend data that needs to be processed; it's just the interaction I want to create.
how I might go about doing this in Flash/ActionScript?
I know how to create the interface itself I believe with the drop-down component but I have no idea how to program this.

I'm trying to create a very simple flash:An input text field, in which the viewer is to enter a simple word (in this case, let's say the word is "earth.") Beneath this text field is a button.When the button is clicked, flash should detect whether the user entered the word "earth"- if they entered "earth", they get sent to frame 2 of this movie. If they typed something else, then they get sent to frame 3.Now, this should be pretty simple, but every attempt I've made has failed, and every search for a simple tutorial/example of how to compose the script meets with no results. Currently, this is the script I put on the button (The input text field has been given the instance name of "answer_1"):[code]

A new method is dynamic fills. Say I have a drawing that is only outlines (and located in it's own movieclip)... is there a way to fill in the blank areas with specified colors? Here is an example:
This must also leave the black stroke untouched.

When I am loading external UTF-8 text files (or texts from an mySQL DB) with Flash, if those files contains enters (by the user that create them) I noticed that those enters are replaced by two char codes: 10 and 13 (new line feed + carriage return). If I put the loaded string to a TextField.htmlText I get 2 enters pressed, and thus instead of having 1 line change I got 1 paragraph change.

Lets say that I have the following strings:
ActionScript Code:
var string1:String="Jeep Wrangler - Red";
var string1:String="Jeep Liberty - Green";
var string1:String="Jeep Patriot - Yellow";
var string1:String="Jeep Compass - Black";
For each string, I want to create a function that removes the text to the right of the "-" character so the strings return as:
ActionScript Code:
var string1:String="Jeep Wrangler ";
var string1:String="Jeep Liberty ";[code].....

I have a time format like so: 00:00:00.00 (hours, minutes, seconds, millieseconds). This is stored into a string called adminTime.
But I need to make it so that the string takes what ever the time is and changes it to 00:00 (hours and minutes)
So basically a way of looping though the string and removing the seonds and milleseconds.

I have made this converter and it stops working when the user presses enter, as the new line corrupts the data. So i thought, i'll just remove the new lines every time the user presses enter. But apparently i can't access the '' character using string search functions or regular expressions.I try to execute the code in the Change event of input_TF.text
ActionScript Code:
trace(input_TF.indexOf("
"))//always -1

I am new to flash, trying to do some animation character. I have 2 queries
1. What is lock fill; whenever I am trying to fill a color, it shows lock fill....
2. If I am creating a non regular figure like say with pencil, if I draw some part of it & do other part by later; these will be assumed different objects & I am not able to fill the whole figure with a selected color.

I tried searching the forum and web on this, and I'm sure it's out there somewhere, but couldn't find it. I thought I was done with my project today- and at the nth hour, right before it was time to go home, sigh, - I realized that for some reason, neither the numbers or punctuation were showing up in dynamic text that was being pulled in via XML. Anyone know this one? I'm an XML dummy.

In my flash application I am using a typewriter effect, to make it seem as if text is written on the fly. When I do so, my punctuation marks (question mark, dot, ect.) get aligned to the wrong direction (to the right). I am writing in Hebrew (right-to-left).

I currently have text fields that read data in from an xml file. Previously i used default font (times new roman) and the punctuation displayed fine. I have since tried to move to Arial (textformat.font = "Arial" and setting embed font to true in the txtboxes) which does not display any punctuation. Is there a function to allow this or is it more complex?

what i really want is the punctuation put into its own array. i strip c like this: Code: var strings = c.split(" "); and of course that places every character into the array and the last character is "legs!". for other purposes i need to split it in every character but how can i now separate the punctuation (in order) so i can recall it later.

I'm fairly new to Flash (over the last few months I have followed Actionscripting in books and online tutorials and can do basics by essentially following the recipes, but am having considerably more problems putting it all together for my own program).
I am trying to create a program for my students that will take their text input in fields like author, title, publisher, date, place of publication, etc. and output bibliography citations in the proper format (complete with punctuation). What is the best way to handle the text formatting to add punctuation and make the citation entries? Your text tutorial on color and other properties is very good, as well as the input text that returns the words, but how do I go one more step to add my punctuation to the user's input?
