For an input field - i need to have some action when user enters something in the input field and hit ENTER.I am using this: but with this user can hit enter anywhere on the screen and get the action- i need to have it only when user selects the input field.
Code:
myNewObject = new Object();
myNewObject.onKeyDown = function() {[code]...
I'm trying to achieve something that I'm sure it's not that complicated, but unfortunately I have not clue how to do it.I have created some text fields. And what I want to do, it's that when the user clicks onthem, in order to start writing, I want a specific movieclip to dissapear.This could be achievable if I knew how to make the textfield behave like a button; but I don't know what code I need for this, as onPress it's not working at all.

View 1 RepliesI know how to enter information into a field using a button or an event, but I can't find any material on how to do it with the enter key. I want it so you can just enter something into an input field and press enter, instead of using a button.

View 4 RepliesI tried to create a input text that asks the user to enter a value then i wanted that value to be compared with another var by an if statement but when it gets to that part it always goes to the else condition. I did check the values by making the flash view, they are the same but its still not running as i want it to.
anyways ill leave you with the code :
variables:
btn: a button i created
maq: an empty string that stores the value of the input text
GPA.text: name of the input text
V3: is just a dynamic text to let me know if the condition is met or not
Code:
stop();
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,checker);
function checker(Event:MouseEvent):void

I'm very new to Flash, and I'm not a programmer, I have an Input text box named txtNe2 where a user will type an answer to a question. I want to evaluate the answer when the user pushes the Enter key and respond by sending the movie to either the "Ne2C" frame or the "Ne2I" frame (for the response to the correct or incorrect answer).

I have taken over an old project of a registration page after a short quiz and for some reason it is not possible to enter special characters in the text input field. example: @ but it is also not possible to enter a y or a capital W and some others. I have not found any thread or google infos on this problem and am short of reprogramming the whole thing in as3 which is very tedious because the whole site is still running as2 and we do not have time nor money to update.
View 2 RepliesI have an input text field set to Password and set to a max of 8 characters. When the 8 characters have been typed in to the input field this needs to trigger (without any sort of button action involved) the playhead moving to frame 20 of the timeline.
I have labeled my input field as passwordTxt.
I have a very strange problem. I recently finished a website,[URL]However if you try to enter the first button (in firefox) it enters the new swf and then freezes... HOWEVER. When I try this in Internet Explorer it works just fine. Is it actionscript which acts different in browsers, do I have to type differently or add exceptions?Through the .js file I found out there is a opera and IE exception..
View 0 RepliesI need to place a limit on my user input field. In this case I want one of the user input field to have a range of 0-10 and the other one to have a range of 0-59. So far all I have been able to do is this:
mins_input.restrict = "0-9";
mins_input.maxChars=2;
The result is my user can only input numbers but the numbers have a range up till 99! How do I put the results of my input field into my actionscript? I'm making a timer with an input interface.
looking for a real-time user generated input text component like the one in this link:(not the whole functionality, simply the function that if you click on stage an input text field opens wherever you click with the ability to save/drag/delete it) URL...i have created a similar form for a client and im missing this part.
View 1 RepliesCurrently I have an input text field in the middle of my stage "newtext01_txt".

I have created a simple Flash file using actionscript 2 (CS3) that allows a user to enter text into an input text field and then print the results. Now what I want to do is allow the user to save the information they've typed in a file of some sort. I would prefer a .pdf, but I'm not married to that format.

View 0 RepliesI am trying to automate the input process so that when a user inputs 3 numbers into the first field, it automatically jumps to the next one. I have the code to do it and it seems as though it should work but, for some reason, when I move focus from one field to the next the data in the previous field is re-arranged so that the last character input becomes the first (610 becomes 061 - for example).Here is my code:
Code:
phone1.width = 30;
phone1.move(10,10);

I am trying to write the code for making a text input control in flex. As the user enters the value in text input control and then if he removes the typed characters to make the text input blank, then I print error message via StringValidator. But I want the focus to be set on that text input only until the user enters anything. How can I achieve that?
View 2 RepliesWhenever I have my Textfield focused and enter a character, the input field enters an additional duplicate character, meaning I have to backspace one character for every character I enter.If it was a Keydown problem the same should happen when i backspace a character as well.
View 2 RepliesI have an input text box with the instance name of input_txt and a dynamic text field named output_txt. I'm trying to do something with the dynamic field when the user has entered text into the input field. So far, this is what I have:
input_txt.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, update);
function update(event:TextEvent):void {
output_txt.text = "foobar";
}
I don't know if this is valid ActionScript 3.0. I am getting an error that says "the class 'TextEvent' could not be loaded."
I have an editable combobox. How can I bind the text the user enters? I can only do binding when the user selects whatever it is they typed in...how can I bind it as they type?

I am working on a simple math game for kids. It is nearly complete but the problem I have is that when the user enters their answer in the input textfield, the numbers are entered from left to right. Most people do math problems from right to left. Is there a way to make the numbers appear from right to left? I am thinking that I would have to use an eventlistener on the number keys and also use parse text or arrays somehow to manipulate the numbers.
View 4 RepliesI am having a hard time finding a basic math tutorial. I am new to AS3 and just need to figure out how to multiply what a user enters by a certain number when a button is pressed.
View 1 RepliesI currently have a slideshow-style navigation site. There are five buttons on the bottom and when the user clicks each button, it triggers a nested movieclip to play. I would like the button to be highlighted when the corresponding movieclip is playing, but when they click another button and another movieclip plays, I want the button to go back to its original color.
The problem is that the movieclips that are playing are nested two levels down and the buttons have to be on the main timeline. I think I might need an event listener to see if a certain nested movieclip is playing, to know to change the button color. It seems to easy but I can't figure it out,
If I have an input text field on frame 1 and I enter text in it then I have a button that say sends me to frame 2. On frame 2 I have a button which sends me back to frame 1. Why when I got back to frame 1 is my text not shown?Why does an input text field go blank when leaving the frame? How can I make it so when i enter text on frame 1 and then go to frame 2 and then back to frame 1 the text i entered is still there?
