Im trying to make my TextArea read multiple lines to a string
Hello
my name
is Bryan
in the textArea
outputs to HellomynameisBryan
how can I get it to output with line breaks?
I want to search a TextArea component (flex) to see if there are any lines containing "?". If there is, the whole line will be removed.[code]
View 3 RepliesI would like to see a line of a text file on the frame that I want (and view it in a dynamic text). This is my text file:
Foo
Candy
Bar
Dog
This is my code in the first frame:
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
firstLine.wordWrap=true;
firstLine.autoSize=TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {
[Code] .....
With this I can see "Foo" in the first frame. How could I see "Candy"? a second frame. Is it repeated all this code again? Is there any way to just invoke the Lines array:
Array = e.target.data.split (/ n /)
And obtain the desired Item?
I am using a TextArea. I set its htmlText as follows:
textArea.htmlText = '<P ALIGN="CENTER"><FONT FACE="_sans" SIZE="14" COLOR="#FFFF00" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0"></FONT></P>'
The problem is that there are always 2 lines in text area when it runs......when i remove this i get usual one line but then i m not able to set color and all.I want to use textarea, set different colors on it and i dont want 2 lines in that.....

A little much put in the title, but my question is just that. I have the following AS3 code for my textarea...
addChild(Texta1);
Texta1.alpha = 0;
Texta1.blendMode = BlendMode.LAYER;
[Code].....
Unfortunately, when I start placing text in this text area. Either through code or user input, the text will be placed on a new line after about 80-100 pixels. Yet I want it to start a new line after 320 pixels (it's length).
I have an app that has text appended to a TextArea (TA). It automatically scrolls to keep the recent line added in view. Over time, this could be a lot. Do I have to worry about this? Is there an upper limit? And, if so, how can I prune the oldest lines of text?

View 3 RepliesI am sending a string to asp from flash that looks like this;

The problem is when asp (probably php too) reads this string, it reads it like this

Now this sucks, is there a way to encrypt my flash string so asp will read the string corectly? I know asp is url encoding the flash string, but this bit of info does not seem to help.
I have an animation that reads some info from a txt file (such a bkg color, bkg image and text). So I would like to make my main animation in the root to repeate a segment of the animation (beteween 50 and 80 frame) or to loop an MC so many times like the number of lines in this txt file.
For exapmle if I have in my txt 6 lines to go from 50 to 80 frames, that again to 50 and like this 6 times (e.g. to repeat this segment 6 times)
I wanna read a text file data and show them in a textArea.

View 1 RepliesI have a TextArea that allows user input. I also have TextInput that the user can type a string into and I want to be able to search through the TextArea for the string in the TextInput. I've never done anything like this before, searching for strings, so I don't know which functions to use or how to go about it.EDIT:
protected function searchBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
text = mainTextField.text;
[code].....
I'm using the code below to search the text in a textarea for a string entered in a textinput. I'm trying to highlight the string in the textarea after it's been searched for. I assume the way to do this is selectRange(). I'm not sure how to find the endIndex for the second parameter of selectRange(). Below is what I have:
protected function searchBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
text = mainTextField.text;[code].....
I have a TextArea, a TextInput and a button. When text is entered into the TextInput the TextArea is searched for the matching string, however it only highlights the first found instance of the string. How can I do a 'find next' type of operation.
protected function searchBtn_clickHandler():void
{
text = mainTextField.text;

I'm making some kind of rssreader right now... everything goes really well but the only thing is that when i read data from xml i get some empty lines in my text. like this:BAJKONOER - De Europese ruimtevaartorganisatie ESA heeftwoensdagochtend de Europese ruimtesonde Venus Express gelanceerdit just stops after "heeft"... it seems like a normal return... but how do i get it out of my string?
View 3 RepliesI have this textfile with a lot of words in it. One word on each line.
How can I compare a flash string to the lines in the textfile? I want to know if the string matches any of the lines in the file.
In Actionscript and Adobe Flex, I'm using a pattern and regexp (with the global flag) with the string.match method and it works how I'd like except when the match returns multiple occurrences of the same word in the text. In that case, all the matches for that word point only to the index for the first occurrence of that word. For example, if the text is "cat dog cat cat cow" and the pattern is a search for cat*, the match method returns an array of three occurrences of "cat", however, they all point to only the index of the first occurrence of cat when i use indexOf on a loop through the array. I'm assuming this is just how the string.match method is. I want to find the specific indices of every occurrence of a match, even if it is of a word that was already previously matched.
how the string.match method is and if so
What I need to do is to use 1 XML file to feed different content to 2 different TextArea fields. I know how to use an XML file to feed text content to a TextArea field. I figured out how to use 1 XML file to feed the same text to 2 different TextArea fields and how to use 2 XML files to feed 2 different TextArea Fields but I can't figure out 1 XML feeding 2 different sets of info to 2 different TextArea fields. Is there something I can do in AS to pull different XML tags to different TextFields?

I'm trying to pull data from an XML file into a TextArea to take advantage of the scroll bar capabilities.I have two XMLLists, XListCopy & XListURLs. XListCopy is basically a list of words that need to be on their own line. While the XListURLs are the respective links for those words.Since at the moment, I'm using appendText obviously any links will be merged into one. Is there any way to separate each & make each clickable?
