ActionScript 3.0 :: Unable To Text In HTML To Flash?
Dec 9, 2010
thread with XML in the title so I came on in...I will start with I am new to flash so a novice is an over estimation. I have a flash template for my photography gallery. It is a nice template and "almost" everything works smoothly. Notice i said almost everything, the gallery images loads from an XML file.hats nice for updating the gallery, There is a small slide out window that holds text in the gallery. I am using it for exif data and I am fine with just placing the exif data in manually when I update the gallery. Now for the PROBLEM.... There is a CDATA tag in the XML file where the text goes for the info. When i alter the text in that section it makes all the text in that images info field dissappear at runtime. Any ideas what will cause this to happen. I have tried everything to remedy this it seems. I hav tried the support where I purchased the template

On my HTML page, I have <div> with an <iframe>, which references another page, that contains a Flash SWF object. If I set any of these:
display:none;
visibility:hidden;
opacity:0;
filter:alpha(opacity=0);
on the <div> that wraps the <iframe>, the SWF object sometimes remains in plain sight, while the <div>and <iframe> go out of view as expected.
[Code]...
This should work in the latest versions of Safari, Chrome and Firefox on a Mac and in the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer on a Windows 7 machine, and it should fail (no errors but the hiding behavior doesn't occur) in Safari on a Windows 7 machine.
It might be pertinent to note that one thing I've noticed about the SWF objects that have passed and failed are that the ones that have failed all revolve around video content whereas the ones that have passed don't. Granted I haven't tested more than a half-dozen objects, but that's quite a coincidence. :)

I have a piece of Flash on an HTML page that when you hover over it, it expands out to reveal more information.There are text links that it expands over, however in everything but IE, when it's not expanded those links are still covered by the Flash making them unclickable.I have the Flash piece in a separate DIV wmode set to transparent.

Is there an easy way to get access to this text in my .swf?

I finished my first as3 project that wasn't Hello World and I wanted to send it to a friend. So I put together an .HTML document to load the .swf file but when I open it as a page the game is larger than the displayed area even though my project is 640X480 and the HTML is set to display that (the .swf displays correctly when opened with the stand alone viewer). I also went into the bin/index.html file in my project and edited the height and width from "100%" to "640" and "480" respectively. I have tried adjusting and changing every parameter and value that I could find to try and fix this issue.

Is there any way I can embed HTML in flash? I know I can do this with text boxes but is there any other way I can do it? If not I know theres is the load feature where I can load text from a text file. With the html text box editing, Can i link that to the text file?. As in when you edit the text box with html could i have the textbox's instance name equal to the text file? With this my issue is with the <a href> in one textbox, I would like when i click those it open another text file in a different text box.
Clarification: I have two text boxes in my flash file.One has current products. And the other is the description of the product they select. I would like a way to edit and change the products in the first text box without having to keep using the FLA file. Which is why i am using this code
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {trace(e.target.data);}
myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("myText.txt"));
The contents of myText.txt are <a href=(not sure what to put here)> Product 1 </a> But all that does is put it in the text output section in flash.It does not show it in flash. I need help getting it to show up in a text box.That is the first part But the main problem is im not sure how to code the a href correctly so that when i click it, another text file opens in the second text box.So that when a user clicks on a product ,like "Product 1" It opens the correct description text file in the second text box.

I have a linked movieclip that contains two textfields.One of the textfields needs to have regular and bold text, so I thought I would use htmlText however it's only showing the regular font that I embedded?I made the textfield in Flash and called it "details".I also tried to make another textField in the symbol called, "invisi" and I set it not visible:invisi.visible = false;I embedded the BOLD version of the font in the invisi textfield, hoping this would make the "details" text field show the bold font...but no luck.

I have a Dynamic Text box in my Library. I drag it to my main stage and give it a name..it is now a movieclip. The name is 'mcAdmin' I added an event listener for MOUSE_OVER I want the text to change color, but for now I'm just trying to change the text; however, it's not displaying the change in text I want. I do a trace, and the change is in there on the output window, but it is not displayed as such.How can I :1) use AS3 to change the font color of the text2) use AS3 to change the text and have it display?
function onMouseOver_txtAdmin(e:MouseEvent):void{ Mouse.cursor="button";
//Current mcAdmin text is 'Administration'
//I want to change the color of Administartion on Mouse_Over

I'm playing around with a messaging type of application. Does anyone know how, or of any tutorials on to "appending" html text to text areas in flex and flex mobile projects? And specifically how I could take that and basically "append" a sprite inline to the text when i need to? Something simple like:Username: some text right here!So, Anyone have any experience "appending" sprites or simple text formatting?how to solve these issues!EDIT:Based on an answer below it was sugguested that it's as simple as...textAreaInstance.htmlText += "<b>Username:</b> some text right here!";But its not. you can't do .htmltext with a text area. you can on a text field, so i tried
var TF:TextField = new TextField();
TF.width = 200;
TF.height = 200;

I have created a textArea element but cannot display my HTML content. If I just display regular text it works or if I change the textArea element to a RichEditableText element it works fine. Since this is for a mobile app I would prefer to use the textArea element as recommended by Adobe.Here is the MXML code for the textArea. All I get is the border and no content displayed.
<s:TextArea id="myHelp" editable="false" width="100%" height="100%">
<s:textFlow>
<s:TextFlow>[code]..........

I am looking to replicate the way the music tracks are presented on this website:[URL].. I'd like to create something somewhat similar, in which I can simply type out the name of each track and then have the small Play/Pause button icon. Are there any templates that are packaged with Flash CS4 for something like this? Otherwise, if you could point me in the right direction as to how it is constructed and/or a tutorial for creating. - But is the text that lists the tracks done in HTML? If so, then this is pretty simple really.

I am a PHP Developer, I know nothing about Flash and with all respect I do not want to know anything about. I develop a CMS which provides the backend for a Flash front end. Data is passed to the template via XML. Everything is grand. The problem is with text formatting. Currently we use the dodgiest flash text formatter. It doesn't work half the time, its horrible but it - just about - does the job. I have been tasked with replacing it. I would like to bring in CKEditor or TinyMCE but when I do I have 2 major problems.
1) Pre-existing HTML messes up the display in TinyMCE due to its invalidity (I can solve this.)
2) The TinyMCE HTML breaks the flash template because of the valid HTML.

I'm trying to display HTML text in a text field on the stage, but the text formatting doesn't show. I am embedding all font variations in the library (arial bold and arial regular) and I even have dynamic text fields on the stage that embed arial bold and arial regular.
Still, this code does not display bold text:
myField.htmlText = "Regular and <b>bold</b>";

my sister asked me to do smth for her that let me scratch my head: she wants to make a signature text in a forum and wants to add sound to this signature so when her post is shown the sound will play in background together with her text signature.
I'm not sure this could be done in flash? is there a way to have some jpeg image with sound effect? or should it be a video? maybe forums restrict adding a flash doc as a signature?

I have two separate projects I am working on, very basic, and the Input Text Box on one is only returning the value in HTML format... I cannot figure out for the life of me why.
The Input Text Box on the Stage has a variable assigned to it. I then have a button that checks the users input... the problem is, the input is being converted to HTML so the check is always failing. When I trace the variable it returns the following result[code]...

I know that with actionscript you can assign certain formating to the HTML text that you use within your Flash animation.
My question is if you can also use actionscript to do the following.
In HTML when you assign as FONT format... font face="verdana,arial" when the user does not have verdana installed, the browser automatically choses Arial (or whatever font you indicated and available on users system) as font to use.
Is the same thing possible within Flash HTML text?
Obviously to prevent that when people don't have the particular font you use for your HTML text, everything screws up

can't get my text to render as HTML no matter what I do, maybe I'm just missing something simple... Here is my code:
Code:
function loadTxt(theTxt){
var lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){
[Code]....
It loads fine but if I add any HTML say for instance <b> the text displays up until it gets to that point and then stops... I made sure that "render Text As HTML" was also checked..
