ActionScript 3.0 :: Format Table In Dynamic Text Box?
Feb 20, 2011
Calling all text box wizards I have a dynamic text box, into which I import table data, sourced through a PHP.Its a basic calendar, where the client fills in a table "date, venue, etc."At the moment all the text is coming though, in one big lump, into my dynamic text box.Is there a way to format the information inside a dynamic text box so that it keeps a table/column layout?
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
[code]....

I'm creating a table by using the <textformat> in flash mx 2004, and I have it working fine within flash, but I'd like to be able to use an external .txt or xml file to fill in the table content as it will be updated frequently.
Here's what I have for all internal data:

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.
does any one have any tips? regEx?
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 text that is in a scrollable box using the scroll bar component and I would like to be able to format headlines differently than the main body copy, etc. How do I do this? The text is dynamic, multiple line.Was hoping not to have to use external files.

I'm importing text via an XML file that will then be displayed in a dynamic text field. The text is about 1 sentence long but one of the words in the sentence must be bold and a different color. So I've added some HTML tags in the XML node to change the color and format but when I test the file the html tags show in the dynamic text field and the text is NOT formatted.
Here is my code:
I bring in the XML data with this AS3 code:
ActionScript Code:
var _xml:XML;
var _xmlList:XMLList;
var _xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code]....
Am I not using the CDATA tag properly? Or do I need to change something in the way I call up the data in the xml node ?

I'm having some serious problems with my dynamic text fields. The case is, I format the dynamic text fields to have character spacing and line spacing both equal to 1. Everything seems fine in the SWF when the text is actually typed INTO the dynamic text field, but when I make it fetch text from Actionscript or an external XML file Flash player renders the text as if it had 0 character spacing and 0 line spacing.

create a picture gallery with XML. There is a loader progress which simply displays a percentage when you click on any image. I have been trying to fomrat this text but with little luck. I am able to apply colors to the text but unable to change the font, size, weight etc.
Here is the text with a color applied
Actionscript Code:
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNextHighestDepth,230,300,300,300);target.my_txt.textColor = 0xFFF;};

trying to format some dynamic text fields (i.e.) Im trying to specify the font style, the font size and colour, but my code below doesnt seem to be working, no errors being returned.
ActionScript Code:
private var fontStyle:TextFormat;
fontStyle = new TextFormat("Arial",18,0x006666,false,true);
2. Also trying to specify the physical size of the dynamic text field via code, so that long sentences for example can be fully seen without being cut off, see image below.But Im unsure on how to work out the code for doing this tried the regular googling tatic but no results. my dynamic text fields are added to the stage via addChild(); so just physically changing the size of them on the stage .FLA isnt an option as they arent actually on the stage.

Trying to connect an input text field to a dynamic text field - each with different formatting (font, size and justification). So far I'm just using the properties box to format the text. Using a.2.0. It works easily in a small test, but in a larger .fla, the results dynamic text field retains the formatting of the input field.

I'm trying to find any AS scripts or examples files that can help me build a dynamic data table generator in flash. Ultimately the generator will be XML driven. The tables have varying columns, rows, labels and data too. Right now I'm just trying to work out the AS that generates the table; I can rewire it to use the xml later on.

Updated question: Is there a way to sort dynamic texts based on the variable (or simple value) they represent? Old dribble: I'm looking for some pointers for a problem with making a table. It may be that I have started off in the wrong direction - anyways, I'm stuck now. The .png displays my objects, and how they are connected/grouped. The highlighted (red) shows the variable containing the points.
The pink with the most points should be displayed higher than the rest, and 2nd most points should ofc be 2nd highest. I have tried taking the red variable out of the pink, but I could not think of a way of moving the red variable based on its own value. I'm going to edit the red variables (as the world cup goes on), and there is no need for cookies and such. And if there is a simpler way of doing the setup, let me know. I'm using SwishMax3 (SM2 up till a few days ago, so I'm more used to as2..)

Trying to format input text fields using format buttons in Actionscript has been challenging. I've been able to put some pieces together, however I am still missing some things. Here's my code:
Code:
function selectText() {
startSelect = Selection.getBeginIndex();[code].........
I need the ability to click the Bold button and it bolds or unbolds at the cursor so if I hit the bold button what I type from that point on will be bold until I hit the button again and then it goes back to regular. I am able to change it to bold or unbold by selecting the text and clicking the button but I also need to do it without selecting.

When applying text formatting to a comboBox, the text formatting appears perfectly on the dropdown menu items but the textField text disappears.Removing the text formatting from the textField makes the textField text reappear but of course there is no text formatting.
Is there a trick to this.

Noob question, I hope. I need to create scrolling text areas with rich text format content. I know I can use the textArea component and set the htmlText property but converting all of my RTF to HTML is gonna be a major pain in the @$$. I keep getting into trouble thinking what's mindlessly easy in Director/Lingo is gonna be reasonably simple in Flash/AS3, I hoping this is just my inexperience with Flash getting in the way. Is there an easier way? I thought of embedding a PDF document but apparently that's not an option in Flash either (note: I know how to link a PDF doc, I need this text to display and scroll within the application, not just pop a new window on top).

I'm reading text from a text file and displaying it into a text field. The problem is when i read it doesn't display the text as it is in a text file. For ex - See below imageNow , as you can see, second line in the text file starts right where first line ends.But flash doesn't display it like that. I have hundreds of lines and in most cases flash spaces consumes less space then a text file. The font in both text field in Flash and notpad is to Arial so the font shouldn't be a problem.
