I have this command but hate the font. Is there a way to create a textbox on screen, change it's attributes like font, and have it's data come from what the code below does?
var handTotalTxt:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(handTotalTxt);
How do I link from my dynamic txt box (html) to an external movieclip (popup). The only thing I found was a
<A HREF="[URL]" TARGET="frame_Name">
What I need is a link/action from my html (AS2);
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("01_mymovie.swf", 9);
}
Here is the situation: I have an XML document which I rip through using a for Loop, and I place the data into an array. From there I tell the data where to go. I have an attribute in my XML called 'link' which contains a URL, now I want to spit that out into a separate textbox and have it also link to the given URL. I have the URL stored in the array just fine, and I can even spit the URL into the textfield, my only question is how to make it link instead of just being normal text?
I hope I explained this well, but the basic gist of it is I have everything working except for adding the hyperlink.
i recently made a streaming mp3 player in flash. im pleased with my work, but i have one problem. i wanted to add a way to download the song that is currently playing. im using xml as the playlist. right now, i have:
Code:
load_txt.text = (index+1)+". "+Songs[index].title+" - "+Songs[index].artist;
i want to be able to click on the text and download the current song. so:
Code:
load_txt.html = true
load_txt.htmlText = "<a href='Songs[index].url' target='_blank'>(index+1)+'. '+Songs[index].title+' - '+Songs[index].artist</a>"
that doenst work. i was wondering if there was any way to assign a link to a variable in a dynamic textbox.
I need to take a textbox on the movie screen, fill it with text and then apply an acute arc to the text about the middle of the text. how to arc text like one of the arches on a McDonald's sign. This has been great and has give me some ideas, but I can't manipulate it to do what I want. I am looking to arc the text like the static picture I have attached (which was done in photoshop) of the target arc I am going for.
View 5 RepliesI have a problem: I'm trying to have a dynamic text box (htmlText) with a number of links (all dynamically generated themselves) within. I need some way that the html link can detect the user mousing over/off of it and fire off a function (to bring up a tooltip elsewhere on the interface, specifically). Is this at all possible in ActionScript 1.0?
View 1 RepliesI haven't worked with HTML TextFields much, and was wondering if this is even possible. I am working on an events calendar, which when loaded displays a list of the current month's event titles in an HTML TextField. I would like to have these titles be links that when clicked on would call an ActionScript line that would setFocus on the associated date TextField.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to get a variable that I get from a PHP-script to be a link in a textfield.
Right now I'm using an html tag to make a link to the information I want to display...
This works but I think its not good enough... I want to get a "rollOver" function on the Headline instead of a new line that says click me.
The following code displays in the textfield "content":
News
Headline <--Headline from the database
Teaser <-- Text from the database
Click me <-- Html link that displays the full text in a textfeild called "info"

I'm working on a project and I need to link multiple screens so that when you click a button it will go to the next screen.I know how to do this via the timeline but I have to do it in action script with addchild.
View 1 RepliesI wrote a flash (ActionScript3) based radio streaming player, there is a link in the player for users to click. It's is a "a" tag in TextField. The code looks like this
textField.htmlText = '<u><a href="' + url +'">' + htmlEscape(text) + '</a></u>';
It works fine if I put my flash player in same domain of web-page, however, if the domain of web-page is different from the location of flash player, then the link is not clickable.
For example:
A radio example page
You can see there is a link in the title bar of radio player, I hosted the flash player on CDN, its domain is different from the web-page, therefore, the link is not clickable.
Why the link cannot be clicked if it is embedded in a cross-domain page? It doesn't make any sense. I did set the crossdomain.xml file properly, but it appears that it doesn't work. I want to make the link clickable everywhere, no matter what domain the web-page is located.
I've been searching around the web for a very long time but I can't seem to find a good solution for this pickle:I have a dynamic textfield on AS3 and would like to add a tooltip to some words within the text. I already got the tooltip class, so the problem lies in fact on 'how to listen to mouse over events on specific texts inside a textfield'I've been trying to follow some methods from the livedocs but all I can get so far is a rectangle object of a single character using getCharIndexAtPoint and getCharBoundaries. It works if I just needed to add a tooltip to a single character (since it can detect which character I'm currently pointing at), but I need to search for actual words. It would be nice to have some sort of getMouseAt(text:String) but that doesn't seem to exist.

I tried many ways but it always gets stuck from time to time for a few milliseconds and ruins the whole experience.way to best animate a large dynamic string on full screen,If there is a better way then using a textField to have a fluent animation, please tell me and I'll try using a different object for my string.
View 7 RepliesI have one textfield which is presented like _root.screen1.screen2.textfield1

We have a little app in use with a customer where html links are generated dynamically at run time. The link text and url are put together from a couple of txt files that the customer regularly goes in and edits. These links have recently stopped working.
Of course, you would think the immediate culprit is the customer who has made a mistake in the txt files. But the the same vars from the same files are used to generate a couple of buttons on the page that DO work. And everything works when I export it from flash. It stops working as soon as it gets to a web server.
Here is the output from the functions that piece together the input data:
[Code]....
And here is the link to the app: [URL]
Choose a category in any of the lists and then any of the subheaders that appear. Most have a link in them. It's in Swedish but I know you lot are smart enough to navigate a flash app without understanding what you're clicking on
In AS3 flash - I have a textField with a CSS in it that looks like this:
body {
fontSize: 10%;
}
When it runs, the font is small. When I click the full screen button, I expected the font to increase proportionally because I set it for 10%. However, this is not working, the font stays at the same size as when not in full screen. I have debugged the onResize event and I can see the style fontSize=10pct when I log it out.
Am I misunderstanding the meaning of % here? I was hoping it would increase the fontSize automatically when going to full screen mode, but that does not appear to be the case.

basically sending and recieving variables from a php page. I want to be able to specify what my textbox on frame 5 says in the onLoad statement. Is this possible?
Currently the only way I have been able to get the text to display is either to use the textbox variable and declare that in the onload statement, or to put textbox.text = mylogin.message; on the actual frame.I doubt there is a way to do it, because the actual textbox hasn't be created yet, but if there were a way, that would be nice.

View 1 RepliesI am new to Flash. I bought a template online a couple weeks ago, and for the most part have made all the changes to personalize the page. The page is for wedding videography, and came with a Videos section. However, I do not like the template video player, and would like to have the Videos link on the menu bar go straight to my youtube channel rather than to the flash player. Primarily all changes to the template have been made in a text.txt file, rather than the flash file itself. My question is, how could I change the link on the main page to route to my youtube channel? Here's what it looks like in the text file:
