View 2 RepliesI have only two fields Name and Email in a Order form and a PayPal button for payment at PayPal ( into my account).I can do the mail portion but have no idea about PayPal code, however on search here I found one code and after pasting this one to the PayPal button it redirects to my PayPal account. But the question is anybody can post a message and leave the site without paying me. How can I do this thing so that the user will forced to pay before posting the mail form. No idea how to proceed?

I have 25 dynamic text fields. If I could, I'd just assign their text by calling the array in the text property var, but that doesn't work.My text field variables are simply B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, I1, I2, I3, I4. . . (I'm populating a bingo card)I'm using 5 Arrays to get the 25 numbers. bArray, iArray. . . and so on.Now, obviously I can fill in my text fields by assigning each variable separately, however, I'd like a shorter solution.Instead of coding B1=bArray[0], B2 =bArray[1] I was looking for a way to assign all the variables in a for loop... or something...
View 7 RepliesAlright so lets say I have a number of movieclips or text fields or something with instance names test1, test2, test3 and so forth. Now say I want to fill these text fields with text that I have in an array and I want to do this with a loop, how do I do this? What I'm really asking is if there is a way to use a variable in an instance name if you catch my drift.

I'm having trouble with dynamically assigning text to a dynamically created text field.
[Code]...
I've tried setting up the TextFormat and createTextField as a function that's called on the onRelease handler. I've tried dropping the whole frackin' code in the onRelease function for each button. Neither approach works. I've been digging around on the web, looking for answers, and nothing seems to solve my problem.
I have a code that creates 10 dynamic text fields, along the "y" axis, based on a loop.
What I want to happen is, for each text field that is created, i want the numbers to constantly change based on a timer (they'll all change at the same time, but to random numbers).
Right now, the code below changes the numbers, but keeps stacking the new numbers on top of the old...
Code:
Code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(100,0);//called every Xms, repeated infinately (0);
timer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, doNumber);
timer.start ();

Basically I want to get the text fields in my Flash translated. To achieve this, I have the translations in a XML file and all text fields are dynamic. I read the XML (dependent on a language calling parameter from the HTML) and set the text fields like:
this["text_1"].text = "Hello";
The "text_1" and "Hello" are of course retrieved from the XML and I use variables in my code.
Now to the problem: I can successfully set the text field, that is visible in the Frame 1 (where my script is executed), but setting text fields that appear later give me an error. Translated it means something like Null Pointer not accessible. So I assume, that the this["text_x"] can not be found.
Is there a way to access it without copying the script into each text element? I have also thought about events, e.g. when the text is shown the first time and I do the translation then (would have to cache the XML at startup then to save time), but didn't find anything.
I am creating a series of text fields to display data from an xml file.
eventClips[i].createTextField("url_txt",9,0,0,250,30);
eventClips[i].url_txt.htmlText = "<a href=""+child.attributes.url+""></a>";
I can't get the text fields that I am creating dynamically to accept html,I have tried .html = true;Am I really going to have to create my own button and use getURL?I am using flash 8, as2.
I have made a top 10 module for my site that loads variables dynamicly in text fields, it works pretty fine, but i have a problem. The text inside the text fields is scaling on move.I don't want the text inside to scale.Here you have the link:xample of text field creation in my as:
Code:
private function createTextField(x:Number, y:Number, width:Number, height:Number):TextField {

I have a linked movieclip that contains two textfields.One of the textfields needs to have regular and bold text, so I thought I would use htmlText however it's only showing the regular font that I embedded?I made the textfield in Flash and called it "details".I also tried to make another textField in the symbol called, "invisi" and I set it not visible:invisi.visible = false;I embedded the BOLD version of the font in the invisi textfield, hoping this would make the "details" text field show the bold font...but no luck.
View 2 RepliesI've got a nice bit of code that allows me to dynamically add a dynamic text box to the stage, add text to it and control it's position and formatting:
var txt:TextField = new TextField();txt.text= "feisty";txt.x=50;txt.y=50;var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();format.color = 0x2F55EA;format.font = "Arial";format.size = 18;txt.setTextFormat(format);stage.addChild(txt);
This just makes the word "feisty" appear on the movie.The problem is that I want to create many words with different positions,different starting times, make them go away and then have different words appear. It would look like this:[URL]The swf at the link was created with After Effects and the file size is 1.5 MB - too big for a web banner. I was told I could recreate the whole thing dynamically with actionscript and get file size way down. I've been working through various tutorials with little luck.
I have a list of 100 words, how do I turn the code above into a cloud of words that appear one or two at a time? I assume I will put the words into an array, but then how do I get the code above to cycle through the array and pick up the position and format attributes?
my client reports to me that some of the text is being clipped off in the text fields. I try to recreate the problem on my pc with chrome and firefox, but everything works fine. But he sends me screenshots from his mac with firefox, and sure enough they are being clipped. He claims its only fire-fox, and it is not a factor of window size. so here are the images to show whats going on:

how do i create multiple text fields with different text in it?
i've tried using createTextField() but you can only make 1 textfield if you give it a different instance name everytime you then should be able to make more but they just disappear.
I'm trying to populate a set of dynamic text fields with text using a for() loop and cant seem to get it to work.I have 9 seperate dynamic text boxes each labled picNum0 - picNum8. I want to read a number of pictures from an external file then have those numbers populate 1 through 9 into the text fields.I get the variables loaded in with the correct values but the text fields wont populate.[code]When I trace(curPic) inside the for(){} it outputs: picNum0 - picNum8, so I know that the variables are allocating ok, but dynamic text fields arent populating with the correct numbers.
View 3 RepliesI just started playing with scripting and here is a question i got. I got 1 button.A movie with containts 3 graphics , graph1 , graph2 , graph3 Each graphic contains a Dynamic Text field. The var of that field within graph1 = text1, graph2 = text2 etc. On release should put the text "test" in each of the textfields and should play the whole movie wich contains the graphics with textfields. this is the code i made
Code:
on (release) {
set ("_root.movie.graph1.text1", test);

I'm having (the smallest issue, but the easiest to solve) is with trying to set text properties of text fields. Here is the Actionscript below:
Code:
// font format
var gametxt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
gametxt.font = "Arial";
[Code]....
Is this valid:
_global.TxtEnter = Label1.text;
It doesn't seem to work. How can I get the value of the text in Entry1 over to my other variable?
How can I send email to several email addresses by clicking the submit button one time. I am using Flash AS-2 .Shall be glad for any reference.
View 6 RepliesI don't know if this is too much to ask but could someone give me a quick overview on how to create an email form that actually sends the information to my email? I have the form created, and I'll post the .fla file (I allow a laugh at my elementary flash movie. This is just a final project for an intro to flash class), and I understand I'll need the .asp file from GoDaddy setup on my hosted space.

View 3 RepliesI have used the kirupa tutorial on a flash email form and it works GREAT! The only thing is I want to have required fields that need to be entered in for the form to send. If the user doesn't enter anything, it will ask them to in order to send the email.how I can do this or adapt it to the kirupa tutorial code?
View 1 RepliesI am wondering how do we determine when a user "starts" entering text into a dynamic text field. Say a person has entered the wrong information and they get an error. I would like to be able to remove that error message as soon as the person selects the input fields again.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make this guessing game where you have to guess how many times a penguin will bounce off the water surface before it sinks The way I'm planning to do it is kind of like this:
1.[Script telling textbox to add +1] >>
2.[Bounce animation] >>
3.[Script that randomly sends you to point 1, or 4] >>
4.[Ending animation]
Yeah, and right now I'm desperately trying to get that dynamic text field to work ...I've made a button with this code:
(The textbox is called "test")
on (release) {
test ++;
}
And on the first frame of the timeline I've added this:
stop();
point = 0;
I've tried changing names, tried adding "_root." (_root.test ...) nothing works!
