Ok so I have a textbox with the variable name "Var_box" and I want the text to be the variable Var1Var2.
So for example:
Var1 = User
Var2 = George
UserGeorge = "My name is george"
So then Var_box would write "My name is george".You obviously cant say Var_box = Var1 + Var2 otherwise Var_box would write "UserGeorge" not "My name is george".
I am getting all data from the database through asp using loadVariableNum("get.asp",0,"GET") in a text box named xx.now i want to split it into further variables for manipulations. but i can't get the value from the textbox xx.i tried

how to get the text from xx?
OK, I have my php and MySQL working fine. I'm pulling the data. I found how to format the data that is returned in the php as XML. My problem is I can't get my Flash textbox to load the variable from the php file. Like most things, this is probably very easy if you know how.My flash dynamic textbox is given the variable name topTeacher. From what I understand, I don't need to worry about an instance name.My php file looks like this:
<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost", "USERNAME", "PASSWORD") or die('Could not connect to server');
Basically I want to define a variable in a movieclip and then display that in a textbox outside of the movieclip. To be a little more specific I want to make a variable be false and then when a movieclip gets to a certain frame the variable is set to be true. The true will then be displayed in a textbox on the main timeline.

View 1 Repliesgoal: Have a text box called "myText" update with the name of an instance that is clicked.Right now I have an instance of myText dynamically on the stage as an added childI also have seven instances of a building that all have individual instance names, bldg1,bldg2, bldg3, etc.I have created a variable called buildings: I also have a for each that makes the bldgNames the same as the buildings array.The problem arises when I want to click on the building and have the myText update with the actual building name (as described in my "trace"my code below.I would like, for example, when I click on the box that is entitled "Building 3" for the myText to read "bldg3".the whole code is:

In the attached CS4 file I have attempted to have a button evaluate whether a variable (textbox) is equal to a number. If so, I want another textbox to say "correct" or trace "correct" either way. However, it doesnt appear to be evaluating the variable. I receive the "correct" trace everytime the button is released.
I tried to upload the file but it is too large. The code in the button is as follows:
on (release){
if (phoneNumber == "911");
trace ("correct");
}
I have a textbox entitled numbers, in which the user presses buttons and the number is added to the textbox. The same textbox has a variable assigned to it entitled phonenumber. When the talk button is pressed the code above should check the variable to see if it == 911. However no matter what I enter into the textbox, the trace always pops up and says correct.
i recently made a streaming mp3 player in flash. im pleased with my work, but i have one problem. i wanted to add a way to download the song that is currently playing. im using xml as the playlist. right now, i have:
Code:
load_txt.text = (index+1)+". "+Songs[index].title+" - "+Songs[index].artist;
i want to be able to click on the text and download the current song. so:
Code:
load_txt.html = true
load_txt.htmlText = "<a href='Songs[index].url' target='_blank'>(index+1)+'. '+Songs[index].title+' - '+Songs[index].artist</a>"
that doenst work. i was wondering if there was any way to assign a link to a variable in a dynamic textbox.
I would like to pass a value from a text box on stage as the URL or filename to the NetStream.play() argument. example:

The point of the matter is that I'm pulling the values from JavaScript/HTML using the ExternalInterface which changes as the user selects next on a HTML page. The page name (URL) is being parsed and passed back as the video filename. I'm using the text boxes currently just to test/view the values being received and sent to JavaScript. The value send and receive fine, I just can not seem to pass the value into the NetStream.play(JavaScriptValue).
function getTextFromJavaScript(str:String):void {
sending_ti.text = str;
var jsArgument:String = sending_ti.text;

If we could use an embedded font that would be a bonus.

basically sending and recieving variables from a php page. I want to be able to specify what my textbox on frame 5 says in the onLoad statement. Is this possible?
Currently the only way I have been able to get the text to display is either to use the textbox variable and declare that in the onload statement, or to put textbox.text = mylogin.message; on the actual frame.I doubt there is a way to do it, because the actual textbox hasn't be created yet, but if there were a way, that would be nice.

here's what I'm talking about Here is the FLA file I have three checkboxes (not mx components) and a dynamic textbox on which the "showtext" variable is assigned. I want the dynamic text box to display the labels attached to checkboxes when they return a value of 1 : (box one is checked, box2 isn't so the label doesn't appear, and so forth.)
I figured I need to use an array for the checkbox labels. I probably need a loop that verifies which checkboxes are checked (value=1). and use an array to combine the checked boxes with their respective label.
I wanna know how I can make a variable shown in a "textbox"

View 2 Repliesi have ade moultiple textbox at run time now i want to delete a textbox by delete key how it is possible .
View 4 Repliesf you know PHP...then you know that you can create a string variable...and then use the value of that variable to declare another variable. like this:
PHP Code:
<?php$foo = "haha";$i{$foo} = "success";print $i{haha};?>
and it would display "success"...or like this:
PHP Code:
<?php$foo = "haha";$$foo = "success";print $haha;?>
and it would also display "success".

View 3 RepliesI've been working with Flash for over 3 years, but I can't figure this one out. I've got a body of text, half of which are bulleted points designated by <li></li>. It's loaded into a html-ised dynamic textbox.
[Code]....
It displays fine as is. However, if I make the box selectable, and select any part of the bulleted list, the ENTIRE body of text turns into a giant bulleted list, including the non-bulleted portion at the beginning. I've managed to replicate this bug with Flash 8 and CS3, using a variety of flas made from scratch.
i have created a mini-game in CS3 that is like a race using KEY_UP and the score its equal to the number of times the the right key's go up. that is already done, my problem is to display the score. i'm a bit confuse of how to use a textbox. and the textbox have to appear on the Simbol that won. i create the textbox and insert its type input to appear on the tela, but put it to work with score is the problem :S
View 1 RepliesI have a textbox (actually, quite a few, I am working with lots of actionscripting/manipulating text), and it seems like the more text that's in the textboxes, the slower flash processes things. I understand like if I had 2 billion characters or something, but were talking a major slowdown between a difference of 300 and 800 words. I would think that flash should be able to handle that. Some are htmlText boxes, and so this added 'hidden' html tags creates lots of slowdown as well. I have cleared variables after using them, and it has helped somewhat, but not very noticably.

View 3 RepliesThere are 5 "price" textboxes on a particular frame. On a separate frame someone chooses an item and it populates those textboxes. What I want to do is be able to add together all of the "price" textboxes to populate the "total" textbox. I have tried parsing each textbox as an integer and then making a function to find the total and populate the "total" textbox but this just isn't working. It still has the value of 0 when I export. If I try parsing as a number it gives me a NaN value.
