ActionScript 3.0 :: Extra Word Spacing When Using HtmlText And "<a Href"
Feb 6, 2009
The problem show up when seeing the movie on Flash Player 10 only.
The weird thing, is that word spacing when adding html links, is bigger than normal spacing. NO EXTRA SPACE IS ADDED, it just gets bigger :?
Attached, is a screenshot of the Textfield with the html link, as seen on different players. Font is Helvetica Neue Lt Std, antialias Advanced, embeded NOT as bitmap font.
already checked on the basics of a dynamic textfield (condenseWhite:true, embedFonts:true, e

Is it possible to tab enable the href links in html formated text that is displayed in a TextField.htmlText property? I don't necessarily want to tab enable the entire text field, just the href links.

Im still relativly new to bringing in xml to flash, but i have read some tutorials and other pages on it. Everything is working fine except for the fact that all the text that isnt an attribute as lots of extra spacing infront of it. I made sure my i set ignoreWhite to true but it still is cuaseing those spaces.

I'm rendering text in a multiline textField as htmlText. I need to put some spacing between each paragraph line, but if a line is long and wraps around, I want the spacing to be normal or narrow. Currently, all lines take on the same spacing regardless of the setting.

I've developed a relatively simple calendar app in Flash that reads an XML file and displays text based on what day it is. A different bit of text displays in the same text box. Since the text is of varying lengths, I wrote a function to resize the text to be large enough or small enough to fit the box. Here's my function:
Code:
// Generic function for increasing text size to fill its container
function AutoTextResize(textElement, maxHeight):void {
textElement.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
[Code]....
It behaves as if the textHeight is LARGER than the height of the box, despite the values it outputs in the traces.

I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?

system to browse offline howeverthis doesn't work correctly for any less then ActionScript 3. Whenyou highlighted a word in the past such as "null" it use to pull upthe word and the info in all the books. Now all I see is a webbrowser that doesn't do this for me. I mean who sits there atadobe's end and thinks up of ways to slow someone down like this??How can you remove the corequick linking from the program.Number 1 not everyone is on AS3 and some of us still have to updateAS2 code.

That's my page, and it works fine in IE...my problem is that it doesn't work in any of the other browsers.Firefox, Netscape and Opera don't recognize the <href> tag that surrounds the flash file, and that <href> tag holds the CSS class that makes the image pop on the right.
Normally I wouldn't even use flash for this but I need the streaming audio capability...you'll notice there's music when you rollover the thumbnails.Anyway, I've tried a bunch of stuff that didn't work...a transparent flash file z-indexed overtop a normal html jpg, among other things.Now I'm hoping that embedding the css into the flash file may be the answer.But, I don't know how to properly embed the class.I just managed to design myself into a corner that I can't get out of with tutorials.
P.S. I know this post is light on the specifics, just tell me what you want to see and I'll post it right away.

Using the following code:[code]Triggering play() and stop() works as expected, however the href doesn't do much, as the click event is sent to the flashplayer, and not following the hyperlink.I have several such flashplayers on the page, and I'm trying to find a way to 'activate' the href onClick and honor the url specified in the <a href=""> construct. Specifically, it's in IE8 I'm struggling.How can I do this using html/javascript?After having come across javascript onclick event over flash object I managed to get closer to what I'm after. Using the onmousedown event, I can trigger javascript when clicking my overlay div. What's a good generic way to read the parent href url and issue location.href='/myparenturl';" style="cursor: pointer; ?

In actionscript I am trying to get the location of the host html doc that has the .swf embedded (ie: [URL]). I have tried the _url method in actionscript, but it returns the path of the .swf doc relative to the website (ie: [URL]) Is there a way to achieve this in Actionscript? I looked into fscommand but I need this to work with Safari for Mac OS.

I think this is a relatively easy fix but I have looked around for the answer and have not been able to find it. I am using a dynamic scrollable html text box. I would like to add links. The only problem is that the double forward slashes (//) in http:[url]....makes the following text become a commment.I have a dynamic text box with an instance name of myText and in my AS layer I have:
Code:
myText.htmlText ="the text for this scrollable text box,
which is html formatted";
If I try to add a html link, obviously it doesn't work.The only workaround that I know of uses exteral .txt files.I would prefer to use those since I have not been able to get my scrolling bar with tweening to load properly with external .txt files.

I've got an HTML page with an embedded flash movie, which has a button. This button in flash invokes the lnkEmail's click event. It's supposed to stop from actually navigating to a new page, but the event.preventDefault(); and the returning of false from the event handler don't seem to be working for me. Can anyone provide insight?
The below example is working in Chrome, but fails in IE 7 and FF. In those browsers it redirects to a blank page with Object [object] as the body and in FF has the url set to the javascript code I execute from within the Flash movie. (ie: "javascript:jQuery('#lnkEmail').click();")

I'm writing HTML text into a dynamically created text field - the text and links appear perfectly, the css styling works and they change colour when you rollover them just as they should.However suddenly they've stopped actually launching the link, I don't get the mouse pointer when I rollover, I just get the select tool and when I click, nothing happens.

I am a little confused with the ASFUNCTION. I understand how to use it to call a function from within the swf, but how can I embed a link in the external text file? Is this even with ASFUNCTION? When I use an <A HREF etc it doesn't work. I have searched all over the forums and can't find the answer to this really simple question. Also, one other thing. Is there a good character map somewhere for UTF-8 encodings? For example, I can't seem to get Trademark and bullet points to work.
