ActionScript 2.0 :: HtmlText Property Not Working?
Oct 28, 2006I have a textfield on stage, and I gave it an instance name "iText". I even turrned on the "Render As HTML text" Icon and embeded the font that I used. Then in my actionscript on the keyframe I wrote:
iText.html = true;
iText.embedFonts = true;
iText.htmlText = "<b>WORKS!!!!</b>"
when I preview this, nothing show inside the text field, this is mind boggling, and I'm yet to know what is wrong here. I use Flash 8 by the way. The really strange thing is that when I do:
iText.htmlText = "WORKS!!!!"
the text shows up, but just with no html format, since I removed the bold tags, so something is wrong along the lines of those tags or something else I am not aware of.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Anchor Tag In HtmlText Not Working?
Apr 18, 2008I have a flex Text field that previously I was declaring and initializing as pure flex mxml. The htmlText field had an anchor tag in it that worked just fine. I'm declaring and initializing this Text field in an mx:script block, and the anchor tag no longer is recognized. Every other concievable tag work as before - <font, <u, and so on - but not <a. For example in the following:
txt1.htmlText = "<u><a href='http://www.google.com'>testing</a></u>";
the text is underlined but there is no link and the cursor doesn't change.
More maddening arbitrary b.s. from flex/as3.
ActionScript 3.0 :: HtmlText Not Working On TextField In A Class?
Mar 24, 2009I have a simple class which contains a TextField. The textfield is populated with data from an XML file.i am using the code:
txtField.htmlText = xmlElement.node.node.text();
txtField.setTextFormat(txtFmt);
If i don't use any HTML tags, it displays fine. But if I add tags, such as <a> or <b>, etc... the text within the tags does not display. For example, if in the XML text i have:
<node>For more information, <a href='
http://www.link.com'>Click
Here</a> to see the information.When I run the flash move, it displays:For more informationto see the information.If i remove the <a> tags, it displays fine.

ActionScript 3.0 :: HtmlText <img> Tag?
Jan 12, 2011if I use an <img src='images/pic.jpg' /> within a text box that is using classic text, dynamic text as its settings, it has been assigned "render text as html" and has been set to multiline, it works great, that is when my image is in the top of the text area. When I move the image to the end of the scrolling text, it makes my text block larger to accommodate the text instead of making it just scroll more.

ActionScript 3.0 :: XML - HtmlText And CSS Formatting?
Nov 6, 2008I (well, a rather angry client) found an oddity I would like to consider a bug in formatting htmlText coming fom XML's toString() method with css.
If somehow an empty tag ends up in XML like <h1></h1>, all of the following text in the field is formatted to the CSS defined props of h1. In the (simplified DocumentClass) code below I have an XML object which has an empty h1-tag after the first sentence of the first paragraph. Placing the XML it in the field renders the text following the empty tag as bold and with the fontsize set for h1.
Strangely, if the html source is initialized as a string and put straight in the textField (see commented code), all formatting is OK.

ActionScript 3.0 :: GetCharBoundaries And HtmlText?
Jul 21, 2010I am having an issue using getCharBoundaries() with htmlText. In the following code, I am trying to get the location of <img> tags, so that I can then move the image to where the <img> tag in the text, rather than the image being placed on the next line. getCharBoundaries returns an actual rectangle when I use plain text, but when it's htmlText, the function returns null (I put in a trace statement just to make sure of whether I was getting null or not). I've read that getCharBoundaries() can be unpredictable; does anyone know of a workaround or why this might be happening?

ActionScript 3.0 :: HtmlText: <img Src= From Library?
Feb 23, 2011I have a htmlText Field, and I wanna embed a Movieclip from my library into the text.I've tried everything for about 5 hours, nothing worked, even though the Adobe Help stated that it's possible:src: Specifies the URL to an image or SWF file, or the linkage identifier for a movie clip symbol in the library. This attribute is required all other attributes are optional. External files (JPEG, GIF, PNG, and SWF files) do not show until they are downloaded completely.
View 9 RepliesProfessional :: Specify Dynamic Url In HtmlText?
Apr 6, 2011I am populating a dynamic text box with some information that comes from an xml.
//fill in the text
infoBox.informationText.htmlText=
"<font size='16' color='#FFFAF0'>"+calledMarkerIndex+[code]....
I am also placing an image in the text box which you can see from the url above.I would like this url to be dynamic just like the other variables that are filling in the text box calledMarkerIndex, calledMarkerDate, calledMarkerDescription.
I have another variable which specifies the url I'd like named calledMarkerContent. I've tried simply chaning the text piece for this but it does not work.
"<img src='calledMarkerContent'/>"+
I feel like maybe I am just making a scripting error. Or maybe I cannot use a dynamic variable in this place.
Actionscript 3 :: Flash - CS4 <b> Tag In With HtmlText?
Mar 2, 2010I have the following setup:wo textfields on the stage with Arial normal and Arial bold, both embedded. I then have another textfield which I am setting like so:tb.htmlText = "Test <b>Test</b>";For some reason, the bold text is not displaying as bold, but as regular weight. I have tried embedding the fonts in the library, using the [Embed] meta tag and even resorted to using CSS to force the fontFamily. Weirdly, I can use Font.enumurateFonts and see both fonts are embedded, but the textfield refused to use the bold version inside the < b > tags.I've been told this is a problem with Flash CS4 on a mac and that it will work on PC. I refuse to believe this is the case, however. Surely Adobe would have fixed this by now?

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To UNBREAK HtmlText
Mar 14, 2008I am trying to create a menu with htmlText. That is, using a textField with several "html links" that call a function (<a href='asfunction:......).I have an array with the menu's options and I use a FOR loop to create each "html link".The problem is that I need the links in one line (at least until the maximum length of the textfield's line is reached..). I was doing this:content.htmlText += "<a href:asfunction...>..." ...but the line breaks. I tried to do:
content.htmlText = content.htmlText + "<a href:asfunction...>..." ...
but it does not work, either. And, if I do:

ActionScript 3.0 :: EmbedFonts And HtmlText?
Jun 4, 2009I am reading some CDATA text from an XML file. This text has HTML tags in it.I want to place this text into a dynamically created textfield that has embedFonts set to true. However,when I set this to true, the html formatting doesn't work. Instead, I only see the text without any of the formating.
Now, when I comment out my embendFonts = true statement, the html formatting works, but I loose my linked, library font. (Since the font Futura is on my machine, it stil uses a jaggy (system?) version of it, I'm assuming this would be a problem on a different machine).Is it possible to use embedFonts with htmlText? Am I calling this stuff in the wrong order?

copyTformat.font = myFont.fontName;

View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Ludicrous HtmlText Offset?
Aug 4, 2009so I'm working on an app requiring me to lay some simple HTML as multicolumn text, and hacking around w/ g.skinner's old regexp method of reflowing as3 TextFields. I'll be happy to share this code if I can get it working. No desire to get into screwing with text.engine at this point, and this has to be back compatible to FP9 anyway.
So I'm back-and-forth parsing from likely break points to determine if we're in a tag here, and jump ahead to the end of it if we are. The ridiculous issue I'm up against is simply that there doesn't seem to be a TextField method for getting the htmlText offset -- NOT the visible text offset -- of a character. Is there a way to do that?

ActionScript 3.0 :: HtmlText And Empty Lines?
Nov 3, 2011I am having the most frustrating time with htmlText in TextField.apparently, if you set the htmlText of a TextField, you always get an extra line at the end.Here is what I have found out:Below, a multiline TextField is created and the text property is set. I then grab the htmlText property, set the htmlText to "" and then reapply the htmlText I had just grabbed. This causes a new line to be added to the Textfield:
Actionscript Code:
var tf:TextField = new TextField();tf.width = tf.height = 200;tf.border = true;tf.multiline = true;tf.wordWrap = true;addChild(tf);tf.text = "this is not htmlText";

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: The Accessiblity Of HtmlText In TextFields?
Mar 6, 2012how Flash handles accessibility of htmlText in Textfields? I know that no additional steps are needed to make Text Fields accessible. But it doesn't say anything about the content. For example, if there is an html link in the textfield, will that link be made accessible to a screen reader program so that the user may "click"/activate it? Below is some sample code. The implementation isn't so important to know, but it may give some insight to the question.There's a textfield on the stage with the name "myTextField".
