ActionScript 3.0 :: Replace Text When Moving To Another Frame?
Mar 25, 2009
I am trying to have text show up in a text field when the playhead was in a certain frame.My problem is that when the user clicks the next button, the text from the previous frame stays in the text field and I need the new text to show up. Any suggestions on how to clear out the old text and have the new text automatically show up?Here's the code I'm using, where scriptTxt is a TextField component.
PHP Code:
var frameLabel:String = (root as MovieClip).currentLabel;
switch (frameLabel) {
[code]....

I making an animation for a preloader.In the animation, a 'line' draws a picuture.There are many lines,and I would like a mask to follow the lines so that it appears that they are being drawn.There are so many that it would be difficult to do this manually by moving a mask frame by frame with motion tweens.

I am making a project and using XML to bring in the data externally. However i have ran into a little snag. My code to query the XML works, but if i don't start with the first button, the rest of the buttons dont work.
If i click on the first button which takes you to a new frame and loads in the XML data into a text area the rest of the buttons will work and go the frame they are supposed to and work as intended.
However if i do not click on the first button first, the button will take you to the frame that it is supposed to take you to but the XML does not load.
The buttons are on a grid and are supposed to be clicked in any order and bring open the right information, which is why this is a problem.
here is the code that is on the second frame. All the other frames look just like this one but with the names changed to fit the names of the buttons.

//this makes the xml request
var jeapordy_xml:XML;
var xmlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Jeapordy.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I'm trying to pass text from an input text in frame 1 to a dynamic text field in frame 10. Thus when the user enters text and clicks the submit button it takes them to frame 10 and shows them what they typed. It's not working but I'm not getting any errors. Here's the link:

I'm having some real trouble getting .replace to actually replace something. Here's my code...
[Code]...
I can trace both newFiles[i] and keywords[i][whatever], but the replace doesn't replace anything. The regex is valid as well. I'm using regexr to test it, and it works perfectly there... but will not for me and I don't know why.

How do I replace a graphic symbol ? It is actually made up of 3 layers including a textbox and bullet. When I double click on the symbol, I get the Text Properties menu.
When I single click on the symbol on the stage, the properties menu shows a Swap button. When I choose the correct symbol and click OK, it looks like it worked but it still shows the original symbol name (Instance of it) on this Properties menu.
Another issue is that when I change one of the symbols (by double clicking on the symbol and then double clicking on the text layer), it does change the text on that layer. However, then it changes the text on the other symbol as well even though they are different symbols.
Note that I can edit the original symbol and the new one. Both symbols are different. In other words, they each show the different text (which is what I want). It's like the original symbol is attached/embedded and cannot be changed.
Background on this issue: Rather than create a brand-new layer, I copied all the frames in a layer to a new layer because it has a motion tween on it. I only need to change the symbol that is in the motion tween. This is the only action/event happening on both layers.

If I have an input text field on frame 1 and I enter text in it then I have a button that say sends me to frame 2. On frame 2 I have a button which sends me back to frame 1. Why when I got back to frame 1 is my text not shown?Why does an input text field go blank when leaving the frame? How can I make it so when i enter text on frame 1 and then go to frame 2 and then back to frame 1 the text i entered is still there?

I was messing around and testing some code for a timer. I found an example when I was surfing the net and decided to use the example I found. The timer works great but for some reason it wont go to the next frame when the timer counts down to 0 (defined in the if method at the bottom of the code). Also the code doesn't give any errors either

I have a main movie (main.swf) that has an empty movieclip that calls for an external swf that we'll call imageclip1.swf. Now, I have a preloader set up in the imageclip1.swf, however, it doesn't want to move to the second frame after it's loaded when it's loaded into the main.swf. It works fine when I test it by itself. The actionscript (AS2) in the first frame imageclip1.swf:
[Code]...
What ends up happening is that it moves to frame 2 in main.swf. So I don't know what the problem is. I've tried every target scheme I could think of (_root, level0, this). I'm pretty green when comes to AS, Also, what would be the correct way to access the different hierarchies (i.e main.swf from imageclip1.swf)?

I am displaying a word in a text box that was submitted by a user. What I need to figure out is, if anywhere in that text the letters "com" appear in order i need to change the font color of just those letter.

I just started using AS3 and I wanted to make a simple script. Basically what I have is a speech bubble with text in it, and every time the player clicks on the screen, the bubble will move horizontally onto the screen. The problem is that after the 4th or 5th time clicking, the bubble will stop entering from the right, but the text will still change. Here is my script so far:
[code]....
What I noticed was that as the clicks increased, the speech bubble's x position was shifted to the left more and more each time. I don't get it, since I set the x position to 800 each time the function is run.

I'm trying to create a site based on flash.I have 5 frames that correspond to different links and then buttons created with functions to move to each frame using gotoAndStop. On one of those frames i'm loading an image gallery (which seems to be working); however when I click on another button to go to a new frame the images from the gallery stay.I would like for them to disappear when I go to a new frame.I think this is an easy fix but i've been stuck on it for three days.[code]
