View 2 RepliesI want to find a text in the particular text field when we enter a word in the find text field and click find button. I have the following objects on the stage.One big input text box (input_txt), one small text box (find_txt) and one button (find_btn) on the stage. I have written following code in action.[code]But it finds and selects only one word and stops. It is not finding another word if there is one more similar word.For example, if there are two words "story", it finds last entered word "story" in the input_txt and stops. I want to find and select all similar words one after another in the full text field as in the normal text program like notepad and word.

I have a combobox (called "style_cb") and as you might have guseed you can use it to select a "style".The site also has pictures and I'd like users to be able to click the pictures (which are buttons) and have the comboboxautomatically set to that option.So, if the options in the combo are "oranges, apples, pears, cherries" and the pictures are of the same fruits,then clicking on a picture of a fruit (let's say "cherriesBtn") would set the combo box to that option.

I have a flash banner rotater and I have little squares at the bottom that are dynamically created which represent the slides in the banner, for example: if there are 4 slides in the banner there will be 4 little squares. Each little square is a button and if you click on a square it will take you to the slide that it represents. My problem is this: When I try to add numbers to each little square by dynamically creating a TextField then the text overlays the square so the button doesn't work.
View 2 RepliesMy question today is dealing with a dynamically generated button with a textField.I have the button copy in XML and I need to add a buffer of 10 pixels to either side of the textField. I tried to CENTER my textFormat, but then I could not see my text because the button is for some strange reason 545.45 instead of 88 like it should be. When I change the alignment to LEFT then I can see my text, but still the larger issue is my button size is horribly off.[code]

I have another problem I create a button in the library, it has a background graphic on a layer and a textField, the textField has a instance name defined in the properties panels and some text. I manually place some instance of the button on stage, I give them different instance names and voilĂ a new problem arise when with actionscript I try to assign a new text to the textField inside a button it throws me error 1119. A quick look at the menu option debug ->list objects, shows me that the instance name of the textField inside the button it is not what I defined but it was replaced with some random name like "instance66"I did a test with a movieclip instead of a button and I can correctly access my textField with the instance name that I manually defined. Why that can be the same with the button? And if for some arcane reason cant be possible to access a manually defined instance inside a button WHY flash give me the possibility to give an instance name to a dynamic textField inside a button?
