ActionScript 2.0 :: Sending Dynamic Text To ASP File?

Mar 31, 2008

I have a flash file that contains an input text field and a submit button symbol. I need to capture what the user puts into this text field and send it to an asp page that will execute a search script. I used the source from this tutorial as my base: [URL]I can attach an FLA if needed, but it should be pretty simple. Here is the setup:Inside a movie clip named "form", I have a text field, set to input text, with "search" in the var property field.On the search button, I have the following action:

Code:
on (release) {
form.loadVariables("searchtest.asp", "POST");
}

In the ASP page, I am trying to capture the value of the variable "search" by using:

Code:
Request.Form("search")

Am I on the right track here? Should I use "GET" and try to pull the value out of the query string?

Data Integration :: Sending Data In Flash To External Text File

Apr 9, 2007

I will be creating a program to use for data entry. I'll be studying zebras in kenya and I won't have the internet there as I'm recording the data. I'd like to be able to send the data I generate in flash to an external text file. I understand I need some sort of script to do that, but is this something I can run just on my machine? (I'll probably make the data into xml format).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Display Bold Text In A Dynamic Text Field Fed By An Xml File?

Nov 2, 2011

I have a dynamic textfield being populated with an xml files' content. I then have a css stylesheet loaded into format the text. This all works great, but what doesn't work is the ability to bold some of the words in that text. I have both the regular and bold versions of the font embedded into the swf, I can test out just a bold block of text and it works fine. The css is also working as it will change the size of the text that I tell it to. Everything is working, but for some reason I am not able to get the bolder version of the font to display in the same text box as the regular one. I have also tried to change fonts but had the same outcome.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load New Text Into A Dynamic Text Box Already Populated By A Xml File?

Jan 13, 2010

I'm using Flash 8 and I'm trying to load new text into a dynamic text box already populated by a xml file.

I have a home page with 5 different buttons on the top menu.

1. Home
2. News
3. Tips
and a few more.

Upon my home page loading, I have a dynamic text box with the welcome text which is populated by my xml file, here is my code for AS2:

function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.home = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0];
_root.tips = this.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes[0];

[Code].....

What I want to do is load the news and tips text into the same dynamic text box on the home page when the news or tips button is clicked, so I don't have to load a whole new swf for each category thus making the site faster.

What code would I have to use to clear the text from the xml file and how would I load my new text upon clicking the button?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Access Text From A .txt File And Load It Into The Dynamic Text Box

Mar 29, 2004

am setting up a webpage with Flash MX. On the homepage I have a dynamic text box with links to the left (currently the links are just typed words). We want it to setup so that when a user clicks a link (such as "HOME") it will access text from a .txt file and load it into the dynamic text box. We want all of the links ("HOME", "PERSONNEL", "RECRUITS", "CONTACT US") to load their text from a seperate .txt file into that same dynamic text box.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Textfield That Loads Text From A Text File

Jul 24, 2006

I have a dynamic textfield that loads text from a txt file. The content of the txt file will be modified daily by the client.What i need is that if there is too much text in the txt file, the dynamic textfield resizes (and not only with autosize because the text can be really long).[code]it doesnt look very good but it works. The only problem is that if I have a really long text the maxsizeY doesnt work fine.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text Input From Generated Text File?

May 10, 2008

I�m currently doing work for a local cinema that wants session times to be displayed as .swf's on a few monitors in the foyer, but I�m having difficulties writing the script for it, here's the situation:The session times are generated daily as a text file by the ticketing software, it looks like this:

12 1 0950 101 0 330 0 M MADE OF HONOUR
1 1 1000 95 0 400 0 M WHAT HAPPENS IN
6 1 1000 95 0 154 0 M SMART PEOPLE
9 1 1010 92 0 300 0 PG MISS PETTIGREW

[code]...

Additional requirements are the times disappearing after the session has started as well as session times 13-16 being displayed as a separate .swf (first class seating)So i guess my main question is "can i dynamically load text from a multi-line txt file without editing the txt file to include variable assignment? ('content=' etc)" the txt file generated is intended for an led display and is apparently a Texas Instruments standard.

I have a dynamic text box that is loading in a text file. It seems to be doing this perfectly well. However, some HTML tags seem to break it. <b> makes the text dissapear. I tried doing a <span> on it, and changing the font-family with CSS, but I dont think its reading the CSS at all.

Xml - Sending Data From MXML File To JSP File (and Receiving) Using HTTPservice?

Jul 9, 2011

I want to retrieve data from a Database and display inside a datagrid in a Flex web application. The way I'm thinking of doing it is :

Send the Query data from .mxml file to the .jsp page using HTTPService. In the .jsp, connect to the database and retrieve the data using select statements. send the results back to the .mxml using HTTPService.

I know what to use but I have an ambiguity. In the (.mxml) I use xxx.send() to send the data. What do I use in the (.jsp) to send it back ? I know that I should store the results in an XML in the .jsp file, but how to do that ?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text With Xml Imported File

Sep 29, 2010

I was working on a dynamic text with xml imported file which contains this kind of code:[code]I have more of that example along the xml file, they're kind of a little newspaper. It has no other kind of code in it.Anyway, I wanted to format the text of the body to "justify",but somehow, with justify option selected on the dynamic text box (if that's enough to work), in flash, it didn't work.So i've heard that justify didn't work, or didn't exist on previous versions of flash, so I've verified the version of the flash file and "voil", it was a 6.0 version.But now, that it's on version 10, the text disappears on *.swf file... And I don't have a single clue about it..Because on version 6.0 it was all ok, except the standard left alignment.
