I should add that this text fields starts out on stage as a dynamic text field. In the code above I am changing its type to input, so that might affect things. I am trying to set up the field so that when a user clicks in the text field, a cursor movie clip appears, and the text that was in the field is erased, and that when they leave the text field and click elsewhere, the text is accepted, the textfield converts back to a dynamic field, essentially "locking" the entered text into the field.
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..
View 2 RepliesI'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.

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 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 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

View 3 RepliesAnybody 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..
View 4 RepliesI'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.

it works but if I set
var str:String = myInput.text;
How to add text to a dynamic text field so that a line of text is created, and you can keep on adding to it. I need it to simply add a number to the text line everytime certain buttons are pushed rather than multiplying it like a score in a game and I think I have gone wrong somewhere.
Here's my example: I have multiple buttons on the stage and each button has a different value applied to it (eg: BTN1 has 1, BTN2 has 2, BTN3 has 3 and so on...)
So (as an example) I was wanting to end up with the following in my dynamic text field "1132" if "BTN 1" was clicked 2x and "BTN 3" was clicked 1x and "BTN 2" was clicked 1x......
which equals...... 1132
I'm trying to use the following actionscript but instead of it adding to my line of dynamic text it adds to it like so... 1+1 = 2
BTN1...
on (release) {
_root.equationcount+=1;
}
I'm now wondering if I should be using "count+" at all? My var for the dynamic text field is "_root.equationcount"

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 have a multiline text input field used as a message area on a form (sending mail through a PHP doc). When I hit return to start new paragraph in that field and the form content is send and received at other end everything after that return is lost?
