ActionScript 2.0 :: Text File Var Decides Which Button Is Correct
Aug 14, 2002
I was wondering if anybody would have some input on this. I have three paths in my movie, p0, p1 and p2 (instance names). These paths are buttons and when I click on the right button I will get a message saying congratulations, if I click on the wrong button I will get a message saying wrong path. The catch is, a text file will contain the info on which button(path) is the correct one. The text file will contain, p1=true&, nothing else.

Is there any way I can embed HTML in flash? I know I can do this with text boxes but is there any other way I can do it? If not I know theres is the load feature where I can load text from a text file. With the html text box editing, Can i link that to the text file?. As in when you edit the text box with html could i have the textbox's instance name equal to the text file? With this my issue is with the <a href> in one textbox, I would like when i click those it open another text file in a different text box.
Clarification: I have two text boxes in my flash file.One has current products. And the other is the description of the product they select. I would like a way to edit and change the products in the first text box without having to keep using the FLA file. Which is why i am using this code
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {trace(e.target.data);}
myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("myText.txt"));
The contents of myText.txt are <a href=(not sure what to put here)> Product 1 </a> But all that does is put it in the text output section in flash.It does not show it in flash. I need help getting it to show up in a text box.That is the first part But the main problem is im not sure how to code the a href correctly so that when i click it, another text file opens in the second text box.So that when a user clicks on a product ,like "Product 1" It opens the correct description text file in the second text box.

I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?

I'm using a loop to generate and position a bunch of movieclips on my stage and another to add mouse eventlisteners to them, turning them into buttons.
All this works fine however when i attempt to trace the instance name of the button pressed, output is firing "instance40" or "instance41" etc.
how do i get the correct instance name? I'm attempting to get at the value of the textfield held within the movieclip i.e. trace(evt.target.value_txt.text); however this is resulting in errors.
Is there a standard procedure for generating buttons in a loop? I'm not understanding why my buttons aren't tracing the correct instance names or why i can't access the movieclips contents, specifically the value of the dynamic text field?
Code's below, if anyone wants to see the whole code, or FLA, give me a shout.

var eggs:Array = [];
for(var i:uint = 0; i < 24; i++){

I have 4 mc's that are acting as btns inside an mc on the main timeline...[code]there are 3 other mc/btns and all come up at different frames in mainbranch_mc (mainbranch_mc is on the main timeline)
first question, if I add the above codes to each mc at the beginning or end of mainbranch_mc I get a null error, so the only way I do not is if I add actions to the frames the buttons start in. (is this correct?)
second question, since btn mode is true I do not need to change the mc properties from mc to button correct?
last question, since newolivefour_mc and the 3 other btns (which I did not list are all inside the branch_mc timeline) how and where do I code so the btns when released to getURL's.

I have a total of 11 buttons each named b1, b2, b3 etc. I used to have it so when the a button is clicked, the button was recognized as to which one it was through an array and string and switch statement (I will show you below). But now I have to introduce something in the middle and so I am not sure how to make it work any more.
Code:
public function addButtonEffects():void {
//the buttons used to lead to onButtonClick as you can see here
//but now I need them to lead to closeShutters and from there go to onButtonClick
b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onButtonClick);

I'm having trouble creating an XML file from Air. It always seems to have some extra character in front of the first block in the xml file like this "¥". This application can read back out of the document, but if i open it with a text editor to make a change and save it, it will no longer open in my application. When I create this XML file, the whole reason I want to use an XML is so that I can possibly edit it on another computer, or in a text editor, and send it back.
Right now I'm creating the XML like this:
var myXML:XML = <motor>
<type>{motor.type}</type>
<shopLocation>{motor.shopLocation}</shopLocation>
<customer>{motor.customer}</customer>
<tech>{motor.tech}</tech>

I have a project that includes 22 buttons that appear and disappear from the stage depending what the user is doing. These 22 buttons are text converted to movie clips. They are all rotated slightly (between 5 and 30 degrees depending where they are on the stage). BUT...hen you ROLL OVER them the mouse thinks the button is in a different location to where you see it. I realized the cursor reacts as if the button is no rotated at all; so the cursor changes to the hand, and the buttons change colour when you are near but not over the button and then you move over it and the cursor returns to an arrow thinking its rolled out.

We have an image editor in Flex to add text and other changes. Once all the changes are complete, we need to save this to the server.We are using php to save the images by accepting coordinates from flex about what all edits are made for that image. Using this we are editing that image using imagick function in PHP. But the problem is output is different from what we see in flex. The issue is mainly with text alignment in flex editor and in the output we get after editing in php.Is there any other way to do this without making the user to wait for a long time to save the images? Is it possible to get the correct coordinates of text from that flex editor. Our issue is flex is passing the x,y of the container of that text editor. For this reason, test is misaligned in the output.

good tutorial for drag and drop quiz style? I have managed to actually create the drag and drop but I need it for a quiz (as quiz templates are no longer available past CS3) so need it to tell the user if they are correct or not i.e. drag a word onto a picture and then hit a button that says if its correct or not or something similar.

i am trying to create a simple quiz in school. I have one test question which requires the answer to be -1.I have created Input text and assigned the variable answer for this question.I have a button with the following AS2 script:
on (press, keyPress "<Enter>") {
if(answer eq "-1" or answer eq "minus 1"
or answer eq "Minus 1" or answer eq "Minus one" or answer eq "minus one")
[Code]....
Firstly whatever you type the numerical keys are immobilised on the keyboard when the .SWF file is builtSecondly I cannot enter the correct answer!! If I type in Minus 1 etc it goes to frame 3.I have tried flags rather than frame numbers - same problem.i have tried remaking the quiz as a separate file.using CS4 and CS5 flash - windows 7 PC.

My Stage size is 126*62. (it's a small animation).- When I publish the .SWF, no problem.- When I publish a projector .EXE file for windows, then, the width is still correct, but the height is higher than 62 : I got two small white bands beside top and bottom of my stage,see ?I don't understand why there's such a difference between publishing a SWF or EXE. And I'm afraid this also happens whatever the Stage size is (small or big, I mean) : you always get these blank bands on the top and the bottom, don't you ?

I'm creating a learning activity for one of our biology classes. The basis of the activity is to test students ability to transcribe and translate DNA into other sequences.I have a dynamic text field where the student would type in a 36 character squence.
I already know that I can use an if statement to see if all 36 characters are correct. I was wondering if there was a way to individually check each letter the student typed in is the correct one for that line. So if UUAACCGG is the correct answer, I want flash to check and see if the third character is indeed A or not.

I have text input boxes. There is validation for each of the boxes using numberValidator. Now, the thing is that am using alert box to show if any error occurs.
Flowchart ::
1> Insert value in textBox.
2> NumberValidator validates the input on "trigger=change".
3> If error, alert message is displayed. The user clicks OK to go back to form.
4> Focus set back to the TextBox.
5> But, alert box makes the text input value blank / null. i.e. Both the previous error value entered by user and the default correct value will not be displayed now.
Display the most recent correct value that was entered in the text box. Not the default of any other, but the most recent correct value entered by the user.

I know I can do this with 36 individual text boxes, but I was kind of hoping to get away with just one big text box.
