I'm using a program called SWFText, which basically helps you create a flash animation to a text without knowing a "thing" about flash.And it outputs a .swf file without a .fla file. I want to use this .swf in my website, but I also want to edit the text in it according to my guests name.For instance, I created a .swf from swftext with the string "Docent" and embed it to my html code. but i don't want to display docent when josh enters to the site. I want basically delete "Docent" out and write "josh" instead.
I designed my friends site entirely in Flash, but now want to add things like meta tags. I've done extensive searching and found the best (or only) way to do this is to open my index.html page in dreamweaver or textedit and add them there. Sounds easy enough but when I open my html page to look at the code I get this error: // Provide alternate content for browsers that do not support scripting // or for those that have scripting disabled. Alternate HTML content should be placed here. This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash. I have Flash Player installed.
I wanted to make this flash thing for my site where visitors can edit a message. Then, it would save to the text file it editing, and it would display it.I know how to display it
I have a page that needs simple image editing within the page. It can be either in flash or Java. Are there any open source tools that you can recommend?

I want to copy some text to edit in the same style and size etc, however when I do change the wording, it changes the original too. How can I do this so only the copy changes when editing?
i have a weird problem with editing text in flash 8:i can only use the "solid" option in the color mixer window when i choose any text, every time i try to change it to the any other of the "types"(linear,bitmac etc) it just wont change and stay on "solid", i cant use gradients as well..
I have an input text box that outputs a message to an ecard within the same flash file. I would like the user to be able to preview the card containing their message and then have the option to edit their message if they wish. Sounds as simple as going back to the frame containing the input text box and editing the message, but when I go back the input box is empty.
I have tried continuing the input box frames and action script throughout to see if the text is retained (hidden behind the actual card). It is until I try to go back and edit. Again the text box is empty.
Without getting too complicated, imagine just a simple Static textField you created in flash and you filled it in with a paragraph of text.
Code: simpleText.text = "here is my paragraph and this is fun and the dog ran far but it did not eat the paper with the paragraph and run-on sentences are nice! What if I did not want the word "paragraph" to show up within the textField? What is the easiest way to search for the word "paragraph" and to simply remove it? Would it be to change it to a String, and then search the string, and then remove it, and then convert it back to a textField?

What's the best way to enable a client to edit text in a Flash-only site? I'm not talking about throughout the site, just selected text blocks. I could easily fill them from XML files and provide a file upload facility, but most clients will want something more friendly. I could copy the text to a TextArea for editing within the site and update the text from that but I think I'd end up writing my own wordprocessing software to make it look friendly. What do others do? I don't want to re-invent the wheel!
This is a custom flash template I downloaded, when you watch/use the template you can see about me, and all the text in it, however when I attempt to edit it to my specs, I see the frame where it is located, but I cannot edit any text, because I can't SEE any text!!So basically, in editing mode, I don't see any text to edit, but when using the template, I see a lot of info... I have no idea what to do, and please keep in mind I am in no means a professional, or even intermediately good with Flash...
I am just starting to use the TextArea component in Flash CS3. How do I change the font size, style, and color of the text within the textarea? Can I also change the textarea background color from white to something else?
I have a flash file and I have the dynamic text with the variable name 'Text1' I want to be able to edit this piece of text by linking the flash file to a php file - but I know nothing about php and therefore I don't know what coding to use in flash to link to php. All I need is a basic bit of coding which would be able to put in php so that one bit can be edited so that it will be edited in the swf.

Is it possible to edit the text of an embedded video in Flash? What I mean to say I have embedded one video with Flash video encoder into my fla and the video has some text which now I want to edit as per my choice.
I'm creating a Flash presentation, and the user wants to be able to change the text on any screen from Flash itself. This was my original my idea (I don't have much experience in AS):
1 - Put all the text in a text file (XML or plain). 2 - Make AS read the text and fill in the text fields in the Flash presentation. 3 - When it's needed to change the text content, execute the Flash presentation with a parameter that will tell AS to show all the fields as INPUT. 4 - Save the new text in the text file via PHP.
But I have been asked if it would be possible to avoid the use of a text file (and the server connection with PHP) and change the swf text content directly with AS. Is this possible? I have been googling it but with no success. I have the idea that this wouldn't be possible but i don't know all the possibilites in the Flash environment.
I'm edit a flash file that uses about 11 different fonts. When I toss it into the editor and publish it some characters are missing from the product, such as W's and M's. I've installed the fonts that were included with the flash file into windows7.
I am inputting text from an xml file into dynamic text boxes; I have static text boxes as titles of each.
making the dynamic text boxes expand if the xml text is of a larger size & moving the static text boxes so they don't start getting over written.
The code Ive used to put the text into the dynamic boxes is very simple:
var xmlData:XML = new XML ();var theURL_ur:URLRequest = new URLRequest("xml.xml");var loader_ul:URLLoader = new URLLoader(theURL_ur);loader_ul.addEventListener("complete", fileLoaded);
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.
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.
I was trying to send 4 paragraphs to a .swf element. I have no idea how to what to do. I tried using FlashVars but I feel like i need to drop in some actionscript to be able to work with the vars conceptsNdisciplinesPar=(some text)&cultures&countriesPar=(some text) etc... Is there an easy way to get access to this text in my .swf?

How it can be done?let suppose text length in text area is 50 characters, i want to allow editing if cursor position is less than 15, and if cursor position in text area is greater than 15 it should not allow user to add more text in text area.If user press any key it should not add any character in text area.[code]
I have a text field component that I am dynamically populating with text. The words appear one letter at a time in a teleprinter style fashion. I also have rendered certain words with HTML to make style changes within the text.Now all this works fine, except because the HTML text is larger than the body of the other text, I am losing theteleprintereffect at the bottom of the text field. In other words, after a set amount has been printed, users are not seeing the letters printed out one at a time, but instead just get a printed line of text appear from beneath the visible section of the text window.
I want to import an html file that contains just plain tet inside of a dynamic text box. The things that I have tried jus tmake the html file pop-up as a new page, but i want the information inside of that textbox.
