View 2 RepliesI have two frames, and I would like to set the textfield's text on frame #2 of the textfield's content on frame #1. How can I do this? Here are the codes: Frame #1(I've got an input textfield(bemenet) and a button(gonb) on it):

How can I enter data into a dynamic text when the data characters are Hebrew font?
View 1 RepliesI'm loading a XML to Dynamic Text field and all is OK, but the SWF is show at left out site of the flash document, I only want put a icon and a text in the same line, something like this:
<body><img align="left" src="icon.swf"
width="15"><mess>You have 4 new
messages</mess></body>
I try with many kinds of tags, CSS and attributes and nothing.
I did a test where I was able to load in data to a text field in flash from an xml file. This field will eventually be a scrolling text box. How would I make some of the text in the XML file interactive (meaning you could click on it and cause something to happen in the flash) - for example popping up a graphic on the screen. I don't want it to be an external link (URL) and since the text scrolls, there is no way to know where it will be on the screen when the user clicks on it so I can't create an invisible button.
View 4 RepliesNot really a AS3 issue, but I'm having a bunch of trouble changing the font size in a text field that pulls data from and XML file. I've changed every font size with the css file, but it doesn't result in any changes with the swf. If it's really that simple the XML and CSS are both here. Or if more is needed, here is the entire project.
View 2 RepliesI've created several textFields, writing:
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField("texto"+i,i+1,100,100,100,100);
};
That's O.K. But I can't put a text in them... when I write
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
["texto"+i].text = 15;
};
It simply doesn't work!
I am using a mehot to drag data from a database (via php) and then insert it into the dynamic text field. This works fine locally, however when I put it onto mysite, none of the text loads.
PHP data looks like this
Code:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT title FROM jos_content WHERE id=46");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
echo $row['title'];
Actionscript for text looks like this
Code:
var my_xml = new XML ();
my_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
my_xml.load ("[URL]");
my_xml.onLoad = function (success){
if (success)
titlenewsone_txt.htmlText = this;
}
We have a for loop creating text fields from arrays.
We have four arrays.
First three arrays create dynamic textfields getting their data values from a xml file.
The last array creates empty input textfields where the user enters the data.
What I'm trying to do is to send the values of these textfields to a PHP file.
The problem here is that I'm not being able to get the updated data of dynamically created input fields,which is the data that the user(visitor) enters.
P.S. : I'm using flash CS4 with action script 2.
I have created an array, and everything seems to be going okay, although I am unable to capture the array's data properly. The Trace function returns something like this :
[Code]....
I need to put ALL that information into a dynamic text? what I am getting now is only the last entry.( Example myItemList[2], but no myItemList[1] or myItemList[0] ) here is the code:
[Code]....
Another option would be to take all this info and put it into 1 variable or something, but I'm not sure how to do that either.
I have some problems using dynamic textfields, spent hours to get it fixed but nothing works. Here's the problem. I've created dynamic textfields where visitors can enter their data, like name, address, comment and so on. My website appears on fullscreen when the web address' typed in. When it's in this fullscreenmode, I'm not able to type in any data in this textfield. When I leave the fullscreenmode I am able to type in my data. Also I've created a dynamic textfield, which loads this sent data from an external database. Now I want to add a scrollbar to this textfield, so all the messages that doesn't fit in the field will be visible. I've tried to create my own, without success, even the simple one in the componentspanel doesn't work.
View 2 RepliesI am making a Scrollbar component and I want a script to call a calculation function for resizing the scrollbar when a new data is loaded.I was experimenting with Object.watch but it's use is beyond me. I don't understand if its the thing I need.Can Object.watch call a function when say a dynamic textfield's data is changed?
View 13 RepliesI have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?
The code I'm building creates two MovieClips on the stage, in one it instantiates several text boxes and in the other some buttons.
What I can't do is access data from the text boxes (e.g. textField.text) for use in the functions called by the eventListeners attached the buttons. I had the system all working nicely before I placed the text boxes and the buttons on separate movie clips.but this structure makes it much tidier to refresh the text I'm using.The button functions are fine with variables created prior to the building of the text boxes.
Am I failing to address the text boxes correctly (because they're on another movie clip) or is there a stage / movie clip property I need to set so they can see each other ... or is this something else altogether?Could it be that the buttons are created before the text boxes?
I parse an xml file that his content is:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<operators>
<operator><name>OPerator1 </name></operator>
[Code].....
I display the name of operator in a TextField after parsing the xml file my problem is to loop through this different TextField with a fade effect.
how can i make a movieclip and a textfield to resize to the content of the text in the textfield? I mean, if I have a textfield with 3 letters font name XXX and then the content of the field change, how can i resize te textfield so the text dont autoadjust to the 3 letter space?

I am looking to change the background color of a input textField when the user selects that testfield to start populating it. I have done a bunch of searching and I keep coming up with this type of answer...
Code:
myTextField.onSetFocus = Set(evt:Event){
// Change color
}
Problems...
1) Is onSetFocus/onKillFocus still available? From what I can tell it is not.
2) I have my text objects encapsulasted in a class so I do not believe I am able to do it like I have been suggested.
I'm using the following to remove a textFeild from the stage I then need to add this textField back to the stage at a later time....i tried using addChild the problem is the text that was in the text field prior to the removal is still in the textfield when i re add it......How do i remove the textfield and replace it with a fresh textfield at a later time?....using msgTa.text =""; is not an option.
View 4 RepliesI just recently started playing with cs5 and it's new features. I tried to rotate a textfield with the 3D rotation tool, but when you do this, the textfields gets blurry.And it seems like it's not a vector text anymore, because when you zoom in, it still is blurry.Is there a way to prevent that?
View 5 Repliesi would just like to ask why is the case that when i use embedfonts = true on a textfield, the textfield's text only resizes according to the textfield's height but not the textfield's width. meaning if i make the textfield's height bigger, the text also gets bigger in terms of height, but not width, can't the embedded font maintain aspect ratio according to the textfield height?
I'm only wondering about this because this is not the case when embedfonts= false
in as3 how do i get the text of a textfield to know when to line break according to the width of the textfield.

Attached is basically a recreation of the problem. What I'm basically trying to do is a tooltip window with 4 frames. Each frame has different textfields but also some the same. Like the "Weapon" frame has textfields called namebox, typebox, levelbox, and damagebox, while the "Armor" frame has namebox, typebox, levelbox, and defensebox.
In the attachment there is a Movieclip called awd on the stage. It has 2 keyframes in it called "Weapon" and "Drop" each with their own textfields but they are both called "box". I have a click event listener that makes awd go to its second frame and outputs the second child in awd, which will be the textfield. The problem is when I click the first time, awd goes to the second frame but it outputs null instead of Object TextField. When I click again it outputs Object TextField. If I trace the number of children it gives me 2. So I don't know how it can be null.
