ActionScript 3.0 :: Include Text File And Display From Text File?
Nov 20, 2010
I'm found the site with the monkey on the the flash thing and all it shows is a name, email and something else and I used it and it works by including a txt file and displaying text from that file as putting down this information
name.text = this.name;
and I can't find the site anymore to get help.I want to know how to include a PHP script that shows this information like this
text=something I need&username=My Name&email=something@website.com
I want to show this stuff on the flash but every time I execute by using it as localhost/test.php, it will show a syntax error.

We have created a very simple swf file which has TLF text within it. Once uploaded to our client's intranet the file will not play when using IE6 and Flash Player 10. Our client's secure intranet may not be able to download the required framework files from Adobe's website so we simply placed the textLayout_2.0.0.232.swz file in the same directory as the swf files. Unfortunately this still did not work.
To be sure that it was the TLF text causing the problem we packaged the framework in the swf wile (from Publish Settings). This did then work, however we do not want to do this for all of our files as this adds quite a significant size per file. We also changed the text to classic text and this too fixed it so we know we have to solve the TLF Framework problem.

I have my level data saved in a text file for this game I made, I realize that it doesnt allow me to import it into my library, so it cannot be packaged into my finished swf. How can I package the game so that it includes this text file? (really don't want to access it dynamically)

loadVariablesNum("testimonials.txt", 0);
gotoAndPlay("load");
This code works perfect when testing, and it works perfect viewing the SWF, but when you view the HTML file with the SWF embedded, it doesn't display the text file content.

I have a dynamic textfield being populated with an xml files' content. I then have a css stylesheet loaded into format the text. This all works great, but what doesn't work is the ability to bold some of the words in that text. I have both the regular and bold versions of the font embedded into the swf, I can test out just a bold block of text and it works fine. The css is also working as it will change the size of the text that I tell it to. Everything is working, but for some reason I am not able to get the bolder version of the font to display in the same text box as the regular one. I have also tried to change fonts but had the same outcome.

i'm loading an external .txt file into a text field and displaying it as html, works fine... but i when i include a link to display a *second* .txt file in place of the first one, it only works if i click on the link twice. i'm using 'asfunction' in the html link in the txt file. someone suggested replacing 'loadVariablesNum' in the root script with 'loadVars.sendAndLoad', but something isn't right

How can I save data to a text file and also append a record to data in an existing text file? I've used Authowrware previously and it was quite easy to create a large string of data (a comma separated list) and export that to a text file (and create the text file if it didn't already exist). I could then easily append additional rows of data (records) to the text file. We want to build a questionnaire that will store the data locally on the computer in a text file. Each record may have a few hundred data points in a comma separated list.

I am trying to display an HTML formated file in text area component using Action 3.0. The following script does not generates compiler errors, each function seems to be executed yet the file is not displayed. When trying the same code with myCV.txt and myCV_TA.text = (loader1.data) the text file is displayed OK. Flash MX and actionscript 2.0 had handled that differently but with success?
-----------------------------------------------------
var loader1:URLLoader =new URLLoader();loader1.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,displayText);
textload("myCV.html");//---------------------
function textload(file:String){ loader1.load(new URLRequest(file));trace("in textload");}
function displayText(e:Event){ myCV_TA.htmlText = (loader1.data);trace("in displaytext");}
//-----------------------------

when the flash file reads text from a xml file, the font display is unclear. when the text is embedded in the flash, it appears clearly
problem in detail -
i am unable to resolve this problem despite my best efforts. see '~about.fla'. it has been decompiled from a swf file as the original source code was not available (can this be causing the problem?). the xml folder resides in the same folder as '~about.fla'. it contains 'about.xml'. you can download these files at [URL]
i discovered a problem - if you view 'about.swf' - when you click on 'history' link, you can see that the text is distorted. this text is read from the xml file. but is you click on the 'key people' link, you can see that the text appears perfectly. this text is embedded in the flash itself.
i have given the screenshots 'text is unclear.jpg' and 'text is clear.jpg' to further explain my query.

I'm trying to pull in dynamic text from a txt file and display in a web page. The text works great when I view the .swf, but when I place the .swf in a web page the text no longer appears. I'm using loadVariables("text.txt", ""); in my ActionScript and text.txt is located in the same directory. I have embedded the fonts and I'm using Flash CS5 and I have selected Classic Text/Dynamic Text.

Im trying to get a button when pressed to display text from an external .txt file (which I've done so far), but (1) I want it to only display certain paragraphs (the actual dialogue) of this text and (2) every time I click the button it should replace the old text with the new (like in any RPG). Now I asked a former lecturer for help and he gave me a link to a website and gave me a hint of what to do, but seeing as I was recently voted #48 on Forbes worst 100 programmers of all time (actually I haven used AS for 5 years) so I thought someone could explain it to me in a much clearer fashion? PS: My lecturer said: When you click the button to add text to the textfield but you ewant the previous text to be cleared the first thing you do is empty the box ( myText.text = "") then fill the box again with your new text..

I have combed the Web and I can't seem to find the answer. All I want to do is display some html-formatted text, located within an external XML file, in a dynamic text field in Flash CS3.
I don't have any code to supply because at this point the only thing I'm trying to display in the text field is "<b>This</b> is a <a href="http://www.google.com">test</a>." For this hypothetical example, I could call the text field myTextField. I just need to know how to format the AS3 code to get the XML to display inside myTextField.

I'd like to be able to use some raw 3d coordinates from a text file and display them, joined sequentially in a wireframe model. Then be able to rotate, scale etc the resulting model. The coordinates aren't from a 3d drawing package but rather measured - therefore each point is literally assigned three numbers, in a tab delimited file. With a large number of points (i.e. over 100) is there a way to load in the file and then generate the resulting model?
