ActionScript 3.0 :: Using An Input Text Field To Load A Website?
Jul 21, 2011
I'm having trouble with correctly implementing an input text field where the user can enter a URL that will open a new browser. Right now it IS working: enter URL, press enter, the browser opens the website... but only on the FIRST run-through. Once anything else is entered into the field, another browser window opens, but only goes to the default homepageI am stumped as to why this is occurring.My code is probably quite messy, too.
ActionScript Code:
var userInput:String;
function enterKey(evt:KeyboardEvent):void {
I've got an input box within a movie clip that will store several paragraphs of text. I'd like to store the text entered into this box into a MySQL Database using PHP (which I've found several helpful tutorials for) but I'd also like to load this same text into the input box to avoid the text from being lost if the browser gets closed.
So is it possible to dynamically load text into an input field from, say, a Flash variable? If so, can anyone give me a short code example or at least some tips as to where I can find out how to do something like this?
I'm trying to make a button to load an input text field for email addresses. I've been trying lots of different approaches but nothing seems to be working.Code:Quote:
on (release) {loadVariablesNum("subscription.php",0,"POST"); gotoAndStop("thanks"); }
I just need the button to communicate with the PHP code I have setup.
Is it possible to login through flash using one Dynamic Text Field and one Input Text Field and no buttons? If so how? I have seen many tutorials dealing with logging in to PHP using flash but it requires you to make your own php scripts which i am not familiar with. Can some one tell me how to do this with PHPBBs existing php scripts... I want to be able to login thorugh a Input Text Field box and have it verify it in PHP and also be able to register and view other PHP info such as users online and FAQ..
I'm making a calculator using Flash MX that works the same way as the basic calculator found on windows (not the scientific one). But having the user input a number, store it as a variable, store which function the user wants to perform and clear the text field then store the new input in the same text field as a different variable and multiply or add or divide or subtract the 2 numbers and getting the equals sign to display the answer when clicked is harder than I thought it would be.
Using AS3 to create a basic number guessing game but for some reason the input text field won't accept text input. I can't figure out which piece of code is causing the problem and it's driving me nuts considering it's from a tutorial.
What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial.
How can I type something in my input text field without clicking on the field first? Basically I just have one input text field on the stage and when I Test Movie I would like to just type in some text without clicking on the field...
I have two text fields: one is an input text field and the other is a dinamic text field.I also have a XML file with Zipcodes and Cities.
When the user fills the input field with zipcodes from his country (4 digits) the City names have to open on a dropbox menu for the user to select, since the same zipcode will be linked to more locations.
I have a doubt in flash, i have a input text field with the text "search..." if i click on the input text field the word " search...." should not be visible. It is quite same as search bar in Flash Kit website , it is having the word "Search Flash Kit" but when the user click on the text field the word get disappear.

how i can confine the text within the boundaries of the input text field instead of restricting to limited characters? I find that restricting to limited characters is a bit problematic as it depends on the number of words the user types on it.
I have created a form consisting of several input text fields. My question is whether there's script to evaluate which text field is currently selected.
The desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1; var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1"; var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............
I want to create an input text field that can be editable by the user and essentially when they click submit it turns this into HTML code with p, br, strong and em tags.
I don't know if it is possible, I assume it would be, but my searches are not turning up much.
I want the user to be able to select a section of text and click a B button to surround that selected text with strong tags, same for italics.
I also want to give the ability to at least record when the user presses enter in order it insert p tags and maybe even br tags if they press shift+enter
am extreme newb to the slightly more complex level of actionscript (anything beyond tweening and setting initial object states makes my head hurt a bit lol)anyway.. trying to set up pretty simple thing.there's an input text field named nameBox, and I have a button that calls a function that sets a text variable to the contents of the nameBox.text
I have a problem with input text field in flash cs5.

i published my flash file in flash player version 6 and my text fields all work perfectly now...yet when i publish it in flash player 8 which is what i need otherwise major parts of my site won't work...the text fields don't work?
Anybody know how to create inputfield (that actually works) inside Papervision object or material? I've tried a few tweaks but haven't found a simple solution..
I'm trying out this script: [URL] and I'll like to find out if it's possible to tweak it in a way that after the text is entered and submitted, the text will not only appear in the text field but also be added to a javascript contact form.
Jus inncase it's nt really clear, I'm using a javascript contact form whereby users will add in details such as name, etc, and they're also required to input some details in the .swf (the input in the flash is a must). After they're submitted the input in the flash (as seenn in the link above), the detail will be send together with the rest of the details from the contact form.
I am having trouble with the scroll bar component with a text field on a website. I made a text field and am dynamically loading html text into the field. On one page I have a single text field with a single html document loaded into it. On another page I have a single text field that has buttons to swap out the html documents to view different docs. When test the movie in Flash everything works fine. When the files are uploaded online the text scroll bars disappear on both pages for the single doc and the other page with multiple docs, and I can't scroll them.
I am wondering if there is a way to fill out fields in another website with the input text (or dynamic text) fields from my flash page.
I want to be able to have a sort of 'auto fill' function, where the 'username', 'password' etc. fields in my flash page get transfered to the other website's fields. I had the actionscript set up that looked like:

I have a swf that is having problems only when I load a movie.[code]I noticed that the movie does not run right only when the cursor is still bliking in the input text field. I will input text in the input field but the cursor continues to remain in the field even after clicking the "someButton".[code]but is still has a problem. The problem being that when I click another button in the program, sometimes it will not work and othertimes it will.When I remove the input field and hard code the import the loadmovie it works fine.
