ActionScript 3.0 :: Process Without An Enter Or Submit Button?
Mar 17, 2011
This is something I've now tried for several weeks. I know it can be done because I see the swf files but after an all nighter and this being the third time that I've revisited this figure it's about time to ask the pro's.
How does one have calculations or conversions happen instantly as values are entered? No submit button, no enter, just as they type. So if they entered 1 in input box one then obviously nothing will happen but uppon entering data in the second I want the results text field to display the answer. So basically an eventlistener but not listening to a button but rather the input text field.
I have an input text box and a button. When you type specific words into the input box and then hit the button it sends you to a specific frame. What I want to do is essentially remove the button and only have to hit the enter key to submit my text and to move to the specified frame. Here is my current code that is placed on the main timeline, first frame:
[Code]...
I'm trying to just hit the enter key instead of having to click the submit button. I've been trying to get it working for the past couple of hours but haven't had any luck. My best guess is that the enter key isn't valid because it's an input box and may be confused with trying to create a new line (even though my input box is set to single line and not multiline). If so, is there any other way to do this?
I'm currently underway in designing the UI for my game's level editor, I'm not using Flash's build in UI components instead I'm doing it from scratch using OOP.I want to have buttons, drop down menus, panels/windows that contain text fields and buttons.
At the moment I have the buttons down whenever one is created it is added to a static class's static array, and given a unique id number dependent on how many buttons have been created and added to the array so far.I figured this would be good as whenever a button is created I could apply an Event Listener looking for a MouseEvent.CLICK. Then just using the event.currentTarget.getID(), to find out what button has been pressed.
I'm about to start making panels/windows so the user can enter numerical values then submit them via a button, which will also close the window. I was thinking about doing more of the same and having static classes for each input type which lists all instances of that type of object.
I am making a little banner for my site that makes different offers based on geo location (zipcode). I have the code working pretty much except for a few elements I want.
1) I want the input box to say "Enter Zip Code" until the user clicks on the input box. Then it clears out and the user can enter their zip code. The text box at this point should only take in 5 digits and no more.
2) Instead of having to click on the button to submit the form I want the user to also have an option just press enter when they are on the input text field and it process the form.
I am using Flash CS5 with AS2
This is the code I have so far:
ActionScript Code:
Code: TraceOutputFileEnable=1 trace('this is the begining of the code'); var nameText:String = "Zip Code";
I have an HTML form that I want to upload to MySQL with PHP. That part's easy, but the thing is I want the submit button to be a Flash object. Somehow I need the Flash button to submit the form, but I think I can figure that out. The tricky part is that I need it to set another PHP variable before submitting the form. The variable will be determined by a bunch of stuff, but I can code that in actionscript later. I just need to figure out how to pass the variable back to the webpage. A $_POST variable would probably be fine.
edit: What if the flash object returned some javascript and set a variable that way? making it submit the form as well while still catching a variable?
I am trying to have my image uploader have a browse button and submit button (because the submit button will be sending information from a few text fields as well and they need to be sent at the same time).
I've been fiddling around with it and I can't seem to figure it out.. I tried just having the browse function on a separate button but im failing miserably..
Code: System.security.allowDomain("http://dev3.webcanada.com/clients/starwood/GB-Historybook/pages/write.php"); import flash.net.FileReference; // The listener object listens for FileReference events.
correct flash code and php script for the send button on our church website. I've tried everything, but still can't get it to work. Here is the ActionScript code that is listed:
on (rollOver){this.gotoAndPlay("s1");} on (releaseOutside, rollOut){this.gotoAndPlay("s2");} on (release) {
I am working on a game it is almost complete. The problem that i am having is in the codes for the submit button and the checkboxes the pseudo code is:
1. player chooses two choices for each element listed
2. when the submit button is hit the checkboxes are given a number value
3. those values are added together and compared to the value pulled from the database
4. if correct they go to next substance - it should just reload frame 8 (i think)
5. if incorrect it goes to frame 11
the submit button is not working so i can not tell if the checkboxes are working The full files can be seen at [URL]
I know this seems like a stupid question but I am really not able to get this to work.I need an input box with a submit button.I gave the box a var of levelCodeInput and the frame has a code of [code]When I type skiptut into the input box it doesn't go to frame 8.It just stays the same and nothing happens.I tried tracing accepted in the code on the button as well and that didn't make any output.
I'm trying to submit a form using a AS3.I have a button on my .swf which calls a javascript function in the header of the .html document.I've tested this with javascript alert, and it is working.But I can't seem to make it submit the form.The javascript call I wrote is: [code]
i have desgined it so that i have written most of the story but the user can sellect say for example the name for the character by selecting a comobox.
i now need to create a submit button that will store their choices, and it anther use them in another frame. to basically to show the user their finished story.
i will paste my code onto here. note the options for combo-boxes are loaded from a simple xml file.
I might as well put it out while I'm writing. I'm having problems linking my Submit button on my form. Here is my code:
stop();var getPHP:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.dggrafix.com/glutenfree2/contactformprocess.php"); submit_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, formClick); function formClick(event:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(getPHP);}
I put this code on the timeline of the form. Correct me if I'm wrong the submit button just needs to link to your PHP file on your server. I'm getting back a #1009 error Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.I tried referencing the movie file that the button is in ie: form.submit_btn, still get and error.
I'm a Flash newbie using the program to develop a multimedia lesson. I want to include some practice questions where students are asked to answer a quesion by typing numerical values in the box. Then when they hit "enter" I want it to take them to a new question if they get the right answer, or a screen that says "try again" if they get it wrong. Here's the script that I used. I attached it to the "enter" button. The variable name is "answer_box"
I have added following code on form submit button: on (release) { // send variables in form movieclip (the textfields) // to email PHP page which will send the mail form.loadVariables("[URL]", "POST"); }
Another this is that I have to pass the id along with this url. But I am not getting how to get id from my XML file. Structure of XML is as follows: <ratings><video file="video1.flv"> <title>Lays</title><runtime>auto</runtime> <author>Bharati 1</author> <views>1</views><commercialid></commercialid> [Code] .....
I changed the instance name to NXT, the type is already button, and I changed the label to say continue. Can create variables and add request new functions too?
I want to create a program that has a button that when clicked, moves a BOX +1 on either the x or y axis each time the BUTTON is pressed. I know how to make the button and the the BOX, but I am unsure of how to perform the Loop statement and the animating the position statement. I thought it might work something like where the Position of the BOX would increase by +1 each time the button was pressed.
I'm in the process of learning to use PHP with Flash, and I'm creating a simple shoutbox. There are 3 input fields, name, email, message. I am able to create the PHP script, and really just want to know the actions that have to be applied to the submit button within my flash movie as I've never used PHP with Flash before.
They have been made following a tut from Flash_db.I have not been able to test the PHP script yet so no probs with that , but the problem lies in my Flash movie.
The submit button uses a getURL action, but Flash cannot seem to find the PHP file, even though they are in the same folder.
I am fairly new to Flash. Need assistance in how to attach action to a submit button in order that all collected information in a form is sent to an e-mail address.
This is the code i got and you can see the attached output, but i still got a problem, like after the user has selected one of the radioButtons and clicked submit button i want all the components even the submit button to be disabled so that he won't click around until he gets the rite answer. How can i add this fucntionality to ma code below:
Can I send someone my .fla for my feedback form - I'm 99.9% there - I just need for someone to explain why my submit button is not working - I'm really clueless when it comes to actionscript and I do apologize for that:-) - when I hit submit I want people to be able to submit their info from all over the world and I receive it on my end.

I have some radio buttons that are all created dynamically and range from maybe 1-4 or more. Is there a way when I click submit button I can wipe out all of those buttons?
I have a Flash website with a web form that I cannot get the submit button to work. I was able to create a button for reset to work, which I will post that action after the one for my form. I have an instance of web form (which I placed onto my contacts page) created with onsetfocus code and this is the parent form t1_2 and this is the code I have assigned to this form.
I'm using AS3 in timeline. I have an input text box and a button. I would like to navigate to scenes using passwords and a submit button. On timeline I have four labels: intro_1 to intro_4. The input text box is called main_sections. The submit button is called main_btn. Both text box and button are on a layer that goes from intro_1 to intro_4. PROBLEM The only scene I can go without errors is section_4. All other scenes show error
I'm new to CS5 and AS3, I'm creating an educational game for a project and have used the code snippets (with minor tweeking) to create a drag and drop question where the user has to drag a shape to the right amount of corners. (The game is for 4-7 year olds)I've got all of the drag and drop to work, however I am struggling with a way to use a submit button to lead the user to a seperate page (frame) that will give them feedback.
