I need to be center htmlText loaded from XML into an autosize textfield.I've already tried to edit format, autosize center, but it stay at left.

I am populating a dynamic text box with some information that comes from an xml.
//fill in the text
infoBox.informationText.htmlText=
"<font size='16' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerIndex+[code]....
I am also placing an image in the text box which you can see from the url above.I would like this url to be dynamic just like the other variables that are filling in the text box calledMarkerIndex, calledMarkerDate, calledMarkerDescription.
I have another variable which specifies the url I'd like named calledMarkerContent. I've tried simply chaning the text piece for this but it does not work.
"<img src='calledMarkerContent'/>"+
I feel like maybe I am just making a scripting error. Or maybe I cannot use a dynamic variable in this place.
I have a standard text field which is set (using theproperties window) to 'Dynamic Text'. I have the following code to set the text...eval("_root.thead"+i).htmlText = tmp;When I view the program the text field is Input, and notdynamic!I have tried including the line ...eval("_root.thead"+i).type = "dynamic"... but this has no effect.Is this a bug or am I missing something obvious?
View 1 RepliesHTMLText is displaying really strangely. I'm displaying a textField with htmlText provided through XML, and in this bulleted list it'll display the first line all on one line, keep going off the end of the textareas size (ie. not do multiline) until the last word of the bullet, then put that word at the start of the next line. And it'll put the last word on the next line no matter how long your bullet item is.
eg.
myField.htmlText = "<li>Seek the input of experts</li>;
Would output
'seek the input of
experts'
I've checked and this thread was similar however I've removed all my tweens to test and it hasn't had any effect.
what to do about this? I've tried these to no avail:
myField.htmlText = myString;
myField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
myField.wordWrap = true;
I am consuming XML which I have no control over. the XML has HTML in it which i am styling and displaying in a HTML text field. I want to remove all the html except the links.
Strip all HTML tags except links is not working for me.

the following removes tables. var reTable:RegExp = /<tables+[^>]*>.*?</table>/s;
but now i realize i need to keep content that is the tables and I also need the links.

I have this news scroller for work - Vertical member (160 X 600) And the idea is that it has 3 text fields (Headlines). These fields are lined up vertically (one at the top of the scroller, one at the middle, and one at the bottom.). I load them dynamically from XML, and after about 5 seconds, I have them all move up. (the top one goes up the top, and comes back from the bottom, the other two move up). The problem is that I am trying to center justify them, and it is giving me problems. When they're loaded I can center justify them, using this code:
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.centerFunction = function() {
format = new TextFormat();
format.align = "center";
[code]....
Now, when they are first center justified by the code, they look slightly off, and once they move they arrange themselves correctly.
I'm trying to add some zooming functionality. The problem is that when you zoom in and out, it scales the MC up and down from where the registration point is. This means That when I'm far from the position of the registration point instead of zooming the in straight it also makes it appear as if you are travelling towards the registration point.
To offset this effect I want to calculate the amount of pixels I need to offset the Map by so that it appears as if you are zooming in directly.
So just as a test I've put a little ball inside the map(called "center") which I'm trying to keep in the center of the map.[code]...
I have got a movie clip that is dynamically created with actionscript I then load an external swf into that movieclip. My problem is having it centered when I view it in my browser..How do place I center that dynamic created movie clip? I was trying this but it's not seeming to work.

So i have a really nice flash gallery that i downloaded from a site but i am trying to personlize it. It uses a dynamic text (for the preloaders and the titles) which is post by this procedure :
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNe xtHighestDepth(),50,50,200,20);
target.my_txt.selectable = false;
};
So what i did was basically to create a new style (my_fmt) and apply it to dynamic style applied by default (my_txt) :
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNe xtHighestDepth(),0,0,200,20);
target.my_txt.selectable = false;

View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip button with a dynamic text field inside. I am loading the mc dynamically to the stage. In Full_Screen mode static buttons including the full screen button work without a problem, but the dynamic button event does not trigger when clicked. In this simplified code belwo the dynamic button when clicked should change its message to "You have clicked button 1". This works in normal mode, but not in Full screen.I tried btn_cuePt_1.enabled= true; but without success.
Does it have something to do with not using the fullscreen events?
exp. stage.addEventListener(FullScreenEvent.FULL_SCREEN, s_function)
Structure of my button is: Think of it as three layers inside a movie_clip. I used an empty button on the top layer so I would get a pointer cursor, I used a dynamic textfield the one that should change after the event to "You have clicked button 1", and last but not least the button graphic.

//global variables
