- add the content of the textfield to a String, this string is a mySQL generated dinamically.
- send this string to a php that executes this mySQL query string;

Set variable as numbers
var monthly_num:Number = 0;
var ttl_num:Number = 0;
var ttl_rev_num:Number = 0;
// user-entered numbers from an Input textfields
monthly_num = monthly_txt.text;
ttl_num = ttl_txt.text;
// Multiply two user-entered number together to get new result
ttl_rev_num = ttl_num*monthly_num;
Attempts to assign numbers typed into textfields to numeric variables causes errors.

I just discovered something funny I'd like to share with you. I'm making a background mc resize when a textfield gets input. In other words: the paper gets extended when you write close to its edge.The funny thing is that when I register a text input change and trace the content of the textfield, it doesn't show the new input yet. It's always one key behind
Code:
sometextfield.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, onTextEvent);
function onTextEvent(evt:TextEvent):void {

I am working on a listbox(flash component), where upon click, will display other arrays in a movie( which is also a listbox made from textfield). The second listbox suppose to contain html links, where it will open up a popup upon clicked. The problem is that whenever I click on the listbox, the content in the sub listbox doesn't change. that is, it doesn't empty the previous load of links, but just add on to the list of links. I am not sure what I can use to prevent this issue. I have tried listener, and "if else" statements.. I've include the codes for the 2nd listbox (the textfield listbox).
Code:
var ListListen:Object = new Object();
ListListen.change = function(pEvent:Object) {
var selectItem:Object = pEvent.target.selectedItem;
var b :Object = pEvent.target.selectedIndex;
sampleList =_root.sampleMovie.Slist

i am trying to output the content of an array into a textfield.
For instance this is my array:
var MyArray:Array = ["item 1","item 2","item 3","item 4","item 5"];
And trying to output to textfield via a for loop and a textfield with an instance name "products".
for(var i:Number=0; i<MyArray.length; i++){
products.text = MyArray[i];
}
My problem is that this only outputs the last item in my array into the textfield. But not all of the items..

When creating a new TextField dynamically, is there a property that automatically adjusts the width to the content or is it always necessary to have txt_field.width = ...?
My text field:
txt_field = new TextField();
txt_field.wordWrap=true;
txt_field.text = source;
txt_field.autoSize=TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;

There's only room for three lines of text in the interface, but the content is external and variable, and if it ends up taking up more than three lines, there needs to be some sort of 'view all' button functionality. I can kind of think about what that function needs to look like, but I'm not quite sure what the best way to do it in AS3 would be. Something like (in pseudo code):

In a card game I use a TextField in the middle to display the playing table number, but also to detect if a playing card has been played - using myTextField.hitTestObject(myCard) - which means the TextField's position and dimensions may not change:
My current AS3 code is:
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.color = 0xFFFFFF;
format.size = 30;
[Code]......
However the TextField's content (the String "#2029" in the above screenshot) is not in the center of it.
I can not set _middle.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.CENTER because this changes the width of the border (and breaks hitTestObject()).
Is there another way to align the text in the middle?

I am trying to add a listener to a textfield and determine when it is changed that a screen box behind the textfield is resized to fit.
I have tried:
ActionScript Code:
body_txt.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
body_txt.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, setHeight)
But this does not fire. I want to get the new height of the textfield box and set the screen behind it accordingly. What is the proper code for this?

I have a text field within Flash that contains a block of (obviously) text. What I want to do is perform a search on the content of the text field that returns the x & y coordinate and the width & height of the found text. The result will be used to place a visual element over that portion of the text box.
For example:
var pattern:RegExp = /d+/g;
var found:Array = box.text.match(pattern);
var i:String;
for each(i in found) {
/**
* Find the x, y, width, height of the matched text in the text field
* Use result to place transparent yellow box around text
*/
}
Which visually should result in something like:

I am knocking together a small, 100% code pre-loader for loading in external .swfs. I've done this many times with textfields created in the IDE and simply updated the content of the ide-created textfield in the ProgressEvent handler - works fine. However, when I create the TextField solely in AS, it simply disappears. Here's the relevant bits of code:

I'd like to know if there is a way to reference a dynamic text box's instance name through the use of a string.I know that this["the string"] works for movieclips, but haven't had much luck with the text field.Here's a simplified snippet of code I have so far - The goal is to replace txtInstance with txtInstanceArray[k]
var txtInstanceArray:Array = ["txtInstance","txtInstance1","etc"];
var colArray:Array = ["hitsum","hitsum1","etc"];

I want to split a string into its individual characters and then put them in movieclips so that they can be individually tweened.
i was thinking i could split() the string into an array and then create an array of movieclips, each movieclip containing the corresponding letter in the split() array. would this be a good way to resemble a textfield? im looking to do something like the effect here: [URL] i just don't feel like spending $99 to get the package.

If the word "book" is part of the text entered in the text field "mytextfield" the flash should do the action "GotoAndStop(2)". I tried this, but it didn't worked.
Code:
function search() {
var box = this.mytextfield.text;
trace(box);
var str = box;
if (var location == str.indexOf("book")) {
