I'm wondering if it is possible to be able to type a function name into a Text Input and call the function that was put in. I know you could do it by using if conditions but I'm wondering if there is a way to turn that string into the function caller.
View 5 Repliesso I'm not just new here, but definitely new to actionscript (though I have a MINOR amount of OOP experience in matLAB). I was wondering if someone could clarify something (though I'm sure this thread will grow out of my own confusion)?

View 0 RepliesI'm trying to create an input text field that someone can type in, then by clicking a button, the font changes.
I can't figure out how to:
1 - Embed multiple fonts in an input text field
2 - create a function that chooses and applies a font to the text field
I seem to be having a very strange problem with an input textfield. If i have an original message in the input text field, eg Enter your name. Then i add a focus event to the textfield to check when the user selects the textfield. Once they do i want to clear the original message, so that the textfield is blank for when they start typing, but for some reason once i do that i can no longer type in the textbox. The code is from a custom text class i created, but a much simpler version.
View 2 RepliesUsually my input-text-box works great but sometimes my input-text-box will not allow people to type into it - and the only thing that will fix it is clearing the cache.But users will not clear their cache, they will just leave my site.There is a lot more animation in the .swf than I usually put in it but it's optimized. Perhaps the Flash player is choking on the animation?

View 3 RepliesI have completed a simple contact form using Flash CS5 and AS2. Instead of having headings such as "your email", "subject" and "message" outside each text field, they are contained inside each relevant text field and are made up of input text. I would like to do two things: To have the initial text (ie. "Subject") in a smaller size and heavier weight than the subsequent text typed in by the user. I would also like the initial text (ie. "Subject") to disappear as soon as the user starts to type in the same box.

View 1 RepliesYou've seen those Input Text Fields on web sites that have titles on them, i.e. Name, Email, Message, in the Text field itself. Then, when you click on the the text field to type something in, the "title" disappears and you can type your info in. Perfect example: [URL] (Under "contact")

I have a movie clip. Inside that movie clip, I have an input text with an instance name of text. I also have 2 frames of actionscript.
How can I make it that the 2 frames are disabled, and only enabled once you click on the input text?

Basically plots a dot wherever you click. Getting the error 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Class to an unrelated type Function.

View 2 RepliesI have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

View 2 Repliesthe last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {

View 3 RepliesI have created some input text boxes using AS3. For starters, unless I set the text in the code to = " " you can't type in them. Secondly if I click on each box individually I can type in them. However if I tab through them I can't. Here is a link to the site I'm working on. I'm referring to the calendar / bookings form on the first page. To see the form just click on a date after today. [URL].
View 3 RepliesI have a .swf file that loads all of it's images from an embedded file called assets.swf. Last night everything was working fine and then I tried to add a pre-loader. As soon as I did that I can no longer get the input fields to work properly. When you hover your mouse over them it changes to the text cursor but you can't type into the fields. I've tried giving them focus, setting a default value, made sure they have an instance name and nothing seems to work. They're not behind another movie clip and the font is being embedded like it should be.url..
All the other posts I could find about this issue says it has to do with embedding the font. The font I'm using is Tahoma and it's embedded in both of the input fields. Another post I read said the problem was related to masks. I'm not using masks on either of these fields. Anyone know what's going on? It was working fine before I added the pre-loader and removing the pre-loader doesn't seem to fix the problem when this was working fine before.[code]
Maybe someone knows what's up. I've got an input textbox and a dynamic textbox, and I've got a key listener so that whenever you type in the input appears in the output. I've embedded numbers and cap letters in both. This works locally, but when I put it live, you can't type anything into it?If you paste any content into it, it works fine, but, typing it doesn't. The weird part is it works when previewed in flash but not on a server.If you check the 'Custom plate' at the bottom of the 2nd column of options, it sets focus to the input box, and there the trouble happens.I'm thinking it's something with the key listener? I'll try to put the code here for your scrutiny. Weird that it's putting in a space in 'function' of the onrelease, that's not how it is, but also I don't think that part is the problem, but just something with the forum here.[code]
