I have to make a mock contact form for a project I'm doing, so all I need to do is a make a button that clears textinput / textareas. Does anyone know the actionscript for this?
View 1 RepliesI am very new to Flex&Action Script and now I have a question:How can I fill a Textfield dynamically?I have a CoverFlow with images and I want to add text to the image which is currently selected. The text is stored in the textArrayCollection and the index of the text hast the same index of the picture. For example: imagesArrayCollection(1) = rainbow.jpg textArrayCollection(1)= "Beautiful Rainbow over the hills." or something like that.

I'm looking for a framework enabling me to programmatically add moving/scaling shapes and text areas over a flash video.
I'll have an XML file with text, starting times of animations, ending times of animations, positions, scales, etc. And want to use this file to animate stuff into place.
The idea is that I'll have a video with moving shapes. Multi-language content has to be put into the shapes and scale along with them.
framework that enables me to do such a thing?
I have text being inserted into a textarea component dynamically from a MySQL database. The problem is getting characters like the ampersand (&) to show. Also the carriage returns are being processed twice (or the carriage return and newline characters are both being processed).
View 3 RepliesDoes clearing an array with [] such as myArray=[] completely erase the information or can that information pop up again if you put another value into a position in an array though direct assignment to a location, e.g. myArray[i]=10?
View 4 RepliesI am using preloaders to load "modules" of pictures. They are working but I need to unload them before navigating to the next frame (to load the next module). Is there a way to condition action upon leaving a frame? Do I need to create some kind of unloader before the preloader? That might be difficult because I won't know what page I am navigating FROM.

I have a scroll pane with textboxes and buttons that are dynamically created in a function. The textboxes are a user list that can get very long.
I am having problems where once I get out of this frame I want everything to be removed. I have tried removing the scroll pane but all the dynamically created objects remain. Is there some command when you enter a new frame to clear all objects or something along that line?
How to clear the texts that I have typed into the TextArea when I press Enter Key?I have now added a TextArea instance called input_txt to the stage and added an component event listener to detect when I press enter key. Then an event fires up which first reads the input to a string variable.[code]...

View 2 RepliesFirstly, I have searched the forum for related topics and found 2. I have tried to make sense of the code involved to make it work with my current project but nothing works.
As the title says, I require a string to be given the value from a textinput. As this was not working in my main project I created another simple AS3 file.
The user should just type in their name in scene 1. By pressing a button I trace the variable as a test and on scene 2 I should see the users name, but no.
I have added a TextInput component to my movie and named the instance "fname".I use the following simple code...
fname.text = "test";
Problem is that once the text is set using AS2.0 it becomes un-editable and a user cannot change it.
I want to change the text of a TextInput using its name for example.
("name1").text = "123"
or is it possible to create an array of components?:
txt[0].text = "123"
I want to change the text of a TextInput using its name for example.
for(i=0;i<10;i++){
("name"+i).text = "123"
}

I have been developing an application for the past couple of weeks and as of yesterday all of the textinputs have become uneditable. It seems like when you click on one it switches between the focusIn state and then back to the focusOut state.
View 2 RepliesIf I drag a textInput from a component and drop it near the end of the another component, the textInput goes outside of the dropZone.

I have a login form with various textInputs and a submit button. If you submit proper login credentials the system unloads the login view and loads the app view. Pretty standard. Unfortunately I've noticed this weird bug where if you hover over one of the textInput boxes with the mouse, then fill the form using only the keyboard (and leave the mouse parked on top of the textInput), and then tab to the submit button and press the space bar, i.e. login via keyboard, the mouse cursor will remain a caret in the new view, no matter what you do (move, click), until you find another textInput to undo the cursor state. I've tried to do all sorts of stuff via CursorManager but nothing seems to do the trick. I've tried dispatching events ROLL_OUT or MOUSE_OUT events to the textInput but that doesn't do the trick either.
View 2 RepliesI have migrated my app from Flex 4.5.1 to Flex 4.6 and the TextInput click event was broken so I do this « skinClass="spark.skins.mobile.TextInputSkin" » (like was suggest here [URL]..and all seems work (tested in my Android and seems ok) but one user with iOS 5.1 complained that now the keyboard dont popup ?
Also complained for the TextArea that I dont have code in my extended component but also use the skin spark.skins.mobile.TextAreaSkin so the layout became similiar in my textinputs.
Any way to add a default value on TextInput.

When a person writes his/hers name in a textinput, I want to have a script in the "on (focusOut)" that selects the initials of the person and puts them in the variable "initials".Is it do-able? Let's say the person is called "John Doe". Then the value of "initials" would be "JD".It must also work on names like "John von Doe" (the initials would still be JD and not JvD).
View 5 RepliesI use TextInput component to capture user's info for my contact form and invoke an asp file to send out the mail. But value entered in the TextInput somehow is not passed to ASP. The following is my code:
on(click){

trace(LastName);
this._parent.loadVariables("email.asp", "POST");
}

I have a movie that has been working fine until FP10 (3 years plus ). The issue is that a textinput field only gets focus on the first load of the movie. Subsequent loads none of the text input fields get focus, even when stepping through the movie focus is not automatically set. Unless the cache is cleared and the movie reloaded from our website.
I can reproduce it over and over, by clearing the cache movie works, all loads afterwards textinput boxes do not get focus.
Same results in IE 8, FF3 and Chrome. All using the latest flash player 10,1,53,64
It suggests a timingcode loadexecute issue ... introduced in FP10, but how to get around it ?
I am just embarking on a rewrite in Flex but that is some way off yet and something as simple as setting focus to the next field to be filled in affects the user experience.
This is what I'm trying to do:

So when you win my game I add a movieclip that will let you enter your name through a text input component. Unfortunately, I'm calling it wrong.
I'm getting an undefined property error because it's out of the youWon function, right? You'd think I'd understand this concept eventually!

I've already tried a lot, but there was no way I could change the color of my textInput. Adobe Livedocs couldn't help me and there was no working piece of code I could find in other messageboards.
These things haven't work for me:
myTextInput.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0xFFF00);
--
myTextInput.setstyle("backgroundColor", Number(0xFFF00));
--
myTextInput.setstyle("backgroundColor", "#FFF00");
Do I have to do something about the border of the textInput. Or about the "background"-Property (if it still exists for AS3)??
I have a TextInput component and a Button component. When I push the button, all the text in TextInput is wrote on a server side txt file.

I am using Adobe Flash CS5 and Action Script 3, but I am struggling to do something really simple (which means I am looking in the wrong place probably), I have 5 TextInput fields, I have added to the stage via the 'Components' option, but after discovering how to change the colour of the fields, I now want to change the font which appears when you type directly into the fields when the Flash movie is playing, however I can't seems to find this function. I found a tutorial which mentioned going to the properties panel and then clicking 'Character, then 'Embed Font', but this maybe in CS4?
