ActionScript 3.0 :: CSS For Dynamically Loaded External Text?
Jun 7, 2011
I'm externally loading text from a .txt file. I need to format that file using CSS. I've got the CSS file set up and everything. I've tried every tutorial I can find to try and load the CSS, but nothing is working.Here is the script for loading the text:
var textLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();var textReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("content_files/commissions.txt");
textLoader.load(textReq);textLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, textLoadComplete);

I've managed to piece together a flash website with my limited as3 knowledge. The text is loaded from external text files and styled with an external css file.
It's working perfectly in Firefox and Explorer but it only works SOME of the time in Safari (on my mac).It's hit and miss. Sometimes it styles the text sometimes it doesn't.

I am working on an isometric engine called IsoEngine in AS3. I need to duplicate an swf externally loaded. The problem is that after being loaded and duplicated the resulting movieClip lose all its embedded actionScript. Therefore a clip containing 2 or more frames will loop infinitely regardless the stop() that you would have put on the targeted swf fileI am using the following function to duplicate my swf loaded:
var targetClass:Class = Object(loader.content).constructor;
var duplicateisplayObject = new targetClass();

i have a button that when pressed passes a variable:
_root.movieToLoad = "testAni";
then the next movie clip thet "receives" the variables needs to play the external .swf in an empty movie clip... i have the code like so:
movieToLoad = eval("external_" + _root.movieToLoad + ".swf");
emptyMovie_mc.loadMovie(" + VARIABLE_GOES_HERE + ", "_self", "GET");
of course it doesn't work... how do i place a variable in that loadMovie?

I have a swf that gets XML of a location of another swf and loads it. It then casts the loader's content as a movie clip and adds it to the stage. I have that working fine, but how can I control the timeline of the loaded swf?

I'm currently having a little trouble in a project where I have the following occuring:
Code:
preloader.swf --- loads 2x --- homepage.swf --- can load --- products.swf
When the products.swf is loaded, the starting animation occurs as expected and is displayed on the screen without an issue. However, I can't interact with any of the buttons contained in the products.swf. The products page works like an overlay over the top, and the homepage.swf contains an background which can be clicked on to close the overlay. If you click on the products.swf it reacts as if the background was clicked, which it shouldnt as the products.swf is located on top of the background.
I have already checked the obvious parts, and am ensuring that products.swf is located at numChildren-1, so nothing is getting in the way. The catch is that everything was working fine when the code was internal to the fla, and now as soon as I moved the code to an external .as file nothing works. I am using the same way of loading the products.swf as I am loading the homepage.swf, which looks like:
Code:
var productsLoader:Loader = new Loader();
productsLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onProductsCompleteHandler);
productsLoader.load(new URLRequest("products.swf"));
onProductsCompleteHandler:

I'm about to start a project where there will be a Flash application where the visitor customizes a profile with externally loaded images and texts. Then the visitor needs to be able to download that profile as a dynamically created swf with all that external content baked into the swf.

So this is my code so far. What I am trying to do is load the attribute of name into separate MC's that are clickable to then once clicked have the MC "txtBox" load what is in the attribute "link".As it stands now the name of the buttons is loading perfectly, but the trace is bringing back an undefined value
Code:
importXML = new XML();
importXML.ignoreWhite = true;
importXML.onLoad = function(success)

I'm trying to implement this for an instance of ComboBox specifically, which uses a List to display the dropdown menu full of items. Lists can have icons associated with them, as described in the documentation:
var comboBox = addChild(new ComboBox());
comboBox.dataProvider = new DataProvider([{label:'item1',iconClass:IconClass1},{label:'item2',iconClass:IconClass2}]);
comboBox.dropdown.iconField = 'iconClass';
... assuming IconClass1 and IconClass2 are valid classnames of symbols in our library, this code works perfectly.
Here's my question - the contents of this ComboBox will be XML-driven, populated dynamically, and I'd really rather include that icon reference as a filename instead of a classname, so that when the whole thing is implemented, the icon can be changed in the XML without opening Flash and adding a new symbol to the library. Clients aren't generally good at that sort of thing.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to find a way to reference the container for the instance of that icon class - the ComboBox.dropdown is obviously keeping a reference to each list item somewhere, and if I can find it, I can load the icon images dynamically, then addChild them to the icon instance.

Im currently doing a quiz, which, after the user completes all the questions, displays the users score and depending on that score, a certain message ie
if (score<=2) {
Score_Msg.text =" That was poor!":
} else if (score<=5) {
Score_Msg.text = "You know a bit but not much";
}
In the text, i want to include a hyperlink. Is there anyway of making certain parts of dynamically loaded txt into a hyperlink?

Is it possible to call different data from a same text file? In the tutorial about the dynamically loaded text, the example was "kirupatext=" and the text was loaded from after that in the txt file. Is it possible to make it stop loading after a certain point?
For example,
" kirupatext=
Hello There!
I am an example of text that has been loaded from a separate location on kirupa's server. Best of all, notice that you can scroll the contents of the text up and down by clicking on the arrows. This is a nice, useful feature that you can use on your site."
How can I make it load only up to "Best of all"? Is it possible to break up the text into 2 parts so that they are loaded by different text boxes? i tried adding another marker like "kirupatext2=" at another point, but it just gets loaded along with the first "kirupatext=".

Another problem for me with the dynamic scroller found on the Kirupa site: [URL] I can't figure out how to create URL links in the text. I tried selecting "render text as HTML" and added this to the .txt file: < a h ref=" mylink" > mylinkhere < / a> (without the spaces) but it just showed up 'as it'.

I'm fairly new to action script so this might be me being simple but: I followed the Scrolling Dynamically Loaded Text tutorial and added it to my flash movie and although it works perfectly in the tests and once published once it loads in the browser all I get is the word undefined at the top of the text box. I've searched all over for a solution but as I said my understanding of action script is fairly limited.

I have a class that loads data from a text file and puts it into an array called tdv.importedTxtArray (public var).In a separate class i have written [code]The infoArray does not then contain the imported text however because tdv.importedTxtArray is not given its popper contents until about 1/2 a second after the tdvLoader class executes (i.e: when Event.COMPLETE is run and the array is populated with strings from the external text file). Subsequently in the code above infoArray is set to a blank array.How can i get the code in my separate class to ''wait' until tdv.importedTxtArray is properly populated before accessing it.

I have a set-up a movie to dynamically load text from a text file. Now I realize that I want to attach live links to some of the urls in the text file. My question is can you attach the links in a text file by putting html tags in there or is it better to turn the text file into an XML file with the tags in there?Also can you attach CSS styles to that text file.. for instance in addition to adding links to the text I would also like to change the color of the text.

create links in a dynamically loaded text box? I have a dynamic text box with this code (Flash MX/1.0):
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("news_txt.txt");
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
scroller.text = this.newstext;
};
I followed this tutorial [URL] but I need to be able to make links within this text. I'd like to be able to add other HTML code to the text (bold, underline, etc.) but just being able to make hyperlinks from the .txt file would be great.
