Actionscript 3.0 :: Coding A Line Break/newline In An Email?
Oct 17, 2011
I have a page that allows the user to walk thru a gallery and make selections to save to an item list. The item list can then be either printed or emailed. In the email however, the items are not listed on separate lines...they are listed as one big run-on election...SOOOOO....looking for help in codeing a carriage returnThe way I have done it, just isn't workingthe email code from our script:
Code: Select all//Email Code
savedItems_mc.email_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onShare);
function onShare(event:MouseEvent):void
I need to replace multiple contiguous new line/line feed characters in flex with a single new line character.
Example:
The string
"My name is blah blah
My name is blah "
Should be converted to
"My name is blah blah My name is blah "
Hope the example makes it easier to understand.
I am using a component to render it.
I guess using regex would be the easiest way to do this, but still it would be great if people can point me out to references/examples to get this done with ease.
in Flash CS4 I have static text like: Line1 and line2 It's in 9 point Arial Regular as a device font. If I set the line spacing below 3.9 the second line dissappears from the compiled SWF file. It still shows in the FLA file. The same thing happens at 6pt but NOT at 5pt or less.
When a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.
I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.
Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?
In the script, sometimes a newline is added in the beginning of the text field (am using a textArea in adobe flex 3), and later on that newline might need to be removed. I was wondering how to check if there is a newline at the beginning of the text field and then how to remove it.
I've setup a dynamic Text Field, embedded uppercase, lowercase, numerals and punctuation and these special characters: Then I assign text to the Text Field like this:
i'm using this code i got on-line, the text is being outputted through a dynamic text box, which is multi line enabled and html. Yet I just can't seem to get a single line break, i can get a double by doing a normal line break in notepad. But i need a single. And <br> doesn't seem to work.

I have content with line break. When I break the text matter it shows following error. Is there any technique so that I could use line break content matter.
Syntax error:A string literal must be terminated before the line break.
Code : output:TextField:TextField=new TextField(); addChild(output); outputText.text("Number of characters including line breaks and spaces so far: ");
EDIT2: Ok Both problems solved since I just found out how to randomize the array It took me three days to solve these problems lol At the third day I posted here but I got with the solutions by myself EDIT: lol ok Silly me.. I've just found out how to do that... Just adding a n in the answer texts solves this issue... I feel silly now =P ... However, I got another doubt, since I need to randomize the questions... Let's say I'd need 20 questions in total (with its respective answers). From those, I only need 10 to show... Ok, no problem here. The thing is, from those 20 possible questions, I need any 10 to appear randomly. I still can't found out how to randomize the items inside an array.
Using [URL] How do I create line breaks with the XML file? E.g.: I may have paragraphs or want to layout the text with gaps inbetween and the text startin on a new line of the Dynamic Text box.. I'm not sure if this is easy or not as I'm new to the XML side of Flash.
here's the code i am using that i got froma tutorial:
[Code]....

I am having a headache adding a simple break tag in xml. My best effort was <br> but it displays <b> literally! I have already activated html on my actionscript using newsBox.html = true; with newsBox being the instance name of my dynamic text field.

I've found a couple of solutions to the line break problem where you end up with two carriage returns even though you only have one in an external .txt file, but they haven't worked.Here's my AS code:
var textRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("delete.txt"); var textLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); textLoader.load(textRequest);[code]......
I've tried both <br /> and %0D, but neither of them give me a single line break, they do nothing, and the single line breaks in the txt file give me two line spacings.I've tried setting HTML rendering both on and off for the dynamic text box.
I have copied some code from a tutorial only I seem to be getting problems with strings whenever I use newlines. Even putting:[code]Does this mean that in CS4 that newlines in strings are not allowed? I've also tried concatenating the string lines together using += but that didn't work and was tedious. Also, adding to the end or start of lines doesn't seem to work.
I want to be able to write a paragraph in a textfield, and then click and hold, or do some similar gesture, and have the entire paragraph selected. I'm then going to drag it (using bitmapdata or whatever) to another textfield.
In order to do this, I need to be able to detect where a given paragraph ends. So I'm trying to do that with the following code, which searches for " " in the text.
I've got a dynamic html text field in flash which pulls content from an XML file, which is being generated by a CMS using CK Editor. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it, but flash represents a <br/> tag with a space that seems more fitting for a <p> tag, and a <p> tag renders with about double that amount. How do I control this? I've tried specifying margins in the flash css file, but it has no effect. Is there something I can declare in the actual actionscript code?
I have an issue with a specific string variable. It is automatically adding a line break after the text in the string characterName. On this frame I have a input text box with an instance name of name_Input and a submit button that executes the following code.
var characterName:String; characterName = name_Input.text; //The next line was a solution I tried for this problem but it doesn't work
I've created a multiline Input TextField in Flash CS4 IDE, and when I publish and click on it the text cursor jumps down to the second line. In the Flash IDE there is no line-break, but somehow it gets inserted before it's ever interacted with at runtime. I've tried all sorts of random TextField settings but every time when I render the SWF, the input has a line-break. Anybody ever dealt with this? How do I get the TextField to just be empty on start??
