ActionScript 3.0 :: Timed Text Style Tags Not Working?
Jun 16, 2010
Using an FLV playback component, I am reading subtitles into a dynamic text box. I'm essentially using the same XML code seen here:URL]..Only problem is, the style tags aren't working for me. They do nothing, and the font style options selected on the stage in the FLA seem to override any style tags.
I'm wondering - does the text box need to be created in Action Script (as opposed to on the stage)? [FYI, I just tried this, this did not seem to work either]. What else could it be?
(Note that I can achieve styling through using CDATA tags, which makes matters more confusing to me. I'd prefer to use the timed text ones if they can work, as they are a little better for readability).

I've been struggling with this problem for a while:I have a string containing HTML and I'm using a regular expression to get the characters between the tags. I'm then attempting to apply a TextFormat to those characters.The problem is that I'm using the TextField's "htmlText" property instead of it's "text" property (because I don't want the HTML tags to be visible). So, the character index that's returned from the regular expression is incorrect, when I apply the TextFormat.Here is some sample code which illustrates the problem:
var txt:String = "<b>Sample</b> string with bold text";
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(tf);

My HTML tags are not working in a dynamic text box. Im guessing it is cause of the scrolling and maybe it dosn't see <br> so it dosn't allow them. This is the code i am using below.
TextField.prototype.maxviewable = function(){
if(this.maxscroll>1) return this.bottomScroll;
var b = (this.html) ? this.bottomScroll-1 : this.bottomScroll;
if (!this.length) this.text = ">>";

I have a dynamic textfield on the stage which is rendered for HTML. Then I load the xml text in it, but the CDATA html tags are not working(it works on singleline, but not on multiline)
I tried setting wordWrap/html etc to true but nothing seem to work.

simple code here, works just fine.
Code:
var myStyles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
myStyles.setStyle("p", {color:'#808080'});
myStyles.setStyle("h1", {color:'#84ABDB'});
[code]....
Here is my problem - want to make a variable and put it between the style tags.
For instance:
Code:
var blah:String = "Hello there";
my_txt.htmlText = "<p>blah</p>";
Without it just writing "blah" I need it to get the string from the variable.

Can I use stylesheets with pseudo classes? Basically I want to use multiple anchor tags each having unique 'hower' style.
Code:
a.blog:link, a.blog:visited {
font-style:italic;
color:#6969A5;
[code]....
I know to use Textfield.Stylesheet class in flash, but will it really work the way it works in a normal html page with multiple anchor styles?

I have a TextField that has been populated with html text, which includes images using the <img> tag. I don't want to display these images to the user, however when I apply a StyleSheet with the img tag having the display property set to none, it doesn't appear to work.
img {display:none;}

I'm experiencing problems with HTML tags within textfields (multiline textfields). HTML rendering is activated. Fonts are embedded for bold and regular Verdana. In AS3 I also have declared the field as html (instancename.htmlText = "tekst".Now I have all my html code in a sql database which load through php. The whole text loads including the bold, underlined and italic htmltext make up.The problem is that the text on line 1 shows as:"8: you must click ok" (<b>8:</b> you must click ok<br>)But the text on line 2 shows as:" : submitting" (<b>9:</b> thanks for submitting <br>)I have checked the html tags over and over and there is no fault in that.

I must be making a simple mistake (new to Flex). Here is main.mxml:
[Code]...
The Canvas renders fine in design mode (a nice deep blue) but when I run the application (either in the browser or in the Flash Player) the frame is red (the color from the Application tag). If I specify the color for the Canvas directly, instead of through the styleName, it works as expected (blue canvas at runtime). I'm using FlexBuilder3, and would much rather put colors in a .css file than on every Flex element Additional problem description ... has nothing to do with an external .css file. Even if I declare the CSS styles within the main.xml file, it still looks fine in Design mode and wrong when it runs. I am completely stymied.

I've been trying to build a user interface that would allow someone to change the content of a dynamic field (loaded from a text file) using a rich text editor. However the editor inserts inline css style tags like <span style="text-decoration: underline;"> which Flash aparently can't understand. If the editor were instead to insert the following: <span class="ul"> where the stylesheet defined it as:

I've got a project that currently uses classic dynamic text fields that pull in information from an XML file. The text contains a 'keyword' that's referenced in the XML, that can be situated anywhere in the complete sentence. This keyword needs to be a different colour and font size... but as I said, it can appear anywhere.
Currently this works by getting the keyword from the XML, finding its length, finding the index of where it starts, splicing the main string, and then setting TextFormat to the number of chars in keyword, which changes the font size and colour for just that keyword in the sentence.
This works great for the classic dynamic text boxes. It doesn't however work with TLF text, it just applies the new format to the entire text field. I don't have any experience with TLF text as I've just upgraded to CS5 and now need to make this work in Hebrew.The code snippet for the keyword colour change looks like this:Where screen01Norm & screen01Key are things pulled from XML & screen_01.txt_box_combined is the text field.
var newFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
newFormat.color = 0x319aca;
newFormat.size = 50;

I have managed to get rid of unwanted line breaks and returns in the RSS text I am bringing in to populate my dynamic text fields. The Dynamic Text fields are set up not to render text as html, are multiline and have the fonts embedded. I keep seeing things like, <p style=""> at the beginning of the story or <THI.TO> in the middle of the story. Is there any way of deleting anything that appears as <anything> and replace with a space? Here is the code I am currently using to eliminate the line breaks. Also is there any way of turning hyphenation on?

We have invalid characters in text fields ie: <p> tags, when loading data from a local object (even though the text field is set to render as HTML) ?
Questions:
1) has anyone encountered this before?
2) know of a work around?
3) find/replace script we can run through the local object to replace the any <p> tags arising?

I am loading some text into a dynamic text field from an external text file using the methods described on kirupa's tutorials. I want to be able to bold some text, and make some other text links, using html...
I thought it might work if I just added the html tags to the text file, and the chose to render the dynamic text field as html..but the tags don't do anything, and are still read in as normal text.
