I have a list control in a component mxml file. I have created a function in main mxml file, I want to input a text string and add it to this list. How can I do that. Currently using this code
public function add(event:MouseEvent):void {
var name:String = mytextinputid.text;
currentState = 'ChatScreen';
mylist.____
}
Note that this function is in main and the mylist list control is in component mxml.
I'm trying to extend the text input that comes in flex to support an icon, just like mac os x search text input has a grey circle aligned to the right, the text input has a addChild method, but it didn't work for me.
View 2 RepliesI'm planning to make a game that gives players the choice to search a word when selecting a character, and if that word is found, they get to play as them. I don't even have a clue what, where and how I am gonna put the list in the game for something to search it. I'll try to give an example:
A user puts "horse" into the input field, presses the "Search" button, and Flash searches the word "horse" in a list of maybe 30 or so words. If it returns no results, a message says, "keyword not found". If it is found, a picture of a horse comes up in the character preview box.

View 4 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to proceed. Obviously this is a christmas project. The user will be presented with a text input to see whether their name is on the Naughty or Nice list at the North Pole. I would like to randomize which list the users name appears on. And perhaps give them an option to redeem themselves, by doing something "nice" if their name shows up on the naughty list.

input.text = "[URL]";
function PlayVideo(event:MouseEvent):void {
switch (event.type) {
case "click":
var findVideo:RegExp = /(?<=?v=)([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+/;
trace(findVideo.exec(input.text));

I don't know what video this is (just picked it randomly off of the front page), but by clicking a button, the RegExp is called, looks for an ID in the input.text String, but when it does and I trace it, it gives me this:

What's with the ,4? How do I get rid of that?
I've been trying to compare two strings. One from an input text field, input_txt, and the other a variable. For some reason, even though both trace out exactly the same, it's not seeing a match.

I basically need to store a string of characters from an input text box and have them displayed at the last frame of the quiz. I declared the variable holding the input text as _global.player in the first frame, and upon clicking the start button the code is:
on (release) { _global.player=player.text; gotoAndStop (2); }
These variables are not referenced again until the last frame of the quiz, which reads thus:
stop();playerdisplay.text=_global.player;score.text=_global.correct;'Endng Comments Generator'if (_global.correct<=3) { phrase="Try a little harder next time";}if (_global.correct>3 + _global.correct<7) { }comment.text=phrase;
Yes, I know the global.correct coments are not yet complete, but i dont think that should be causing any issue with the playerdisplay.text (the dynamic text box to display the player name). If anyone could give me a hand that would be great. Nothing appears in the dynamic text box when the final frame of the movie loads.
I have an application that is trying to sort of scores. The problem is that when it tries to sort it errors as it is checking if one string is less than another string when it should be doing one number less than another number.

Is this possible to do?
how to make a simple AS3 class.I've made a simple calculator application that allows you to add, subtract, multiply, and divide after entering 2 values into their respective text box.The problem, how ever, is once I moved it into it's own class, I cannot figure out how to reference the text fields. I have the movie clips referenced just fine, but, I cannot figure out the text fields.Here are the errors it's spitting out:
Code:
1120: Access of undefined property Number1_txt.
1120: Access of undefined property Number2_txt.
1120: Access of undefined property finalValue_txt.
And it does that for each instance of those in the Calculator.as

I have the following problem in AS3. I have a string like this one: "prop1:val1,prop2:val2,..."; I want to split and parse the string to obtain a dynamic object like this one: {prop1:"val1", prop2:"val2"}.
The simple way to solve it is to cycle through the string values and to do[code]...
Since I know the property names I expect, this works for me, but doesn't seem to be an elegant solution. I'm wondering if there is another way in as3 (similar to the reflection api in java).
I am using flex to generate a lexical analyser for a custom language. The problem I am having is that as soon as I find a misformed token... I have no way to tell what other tokens follow this one. e.g.[code]Here, the stream of tokens will be id,<,>,id,<;>...... the language specifies that each token be seperated by a whitespace. So seeing a v after 1 should produce an error and the scanner has to print that error. After that, there are more legal tokens and another illegal token (~return). How do I process the rest of the legal tokens and print the second error.I am using flex as the scanner generator. When I find that none of the regular expressions for the lexeme matches, I call an error routine that prints the appropriate message.How do I resume processing after calling this routine?
View 1 RepliesI have encountered strange problem. I have created simple Flash text field control and I wanted to compare its content with some other string. This comparison in triggered when user is pressing the button.In Action Script 2.0 code I noticed that a caret return character () was added at the end of the string coming from the input text field.It is easy to overcome the problem obviously, however I would like to understand what is going on. I use Flash CS4 with AS 2.0.

View 2 RepliesI have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

the last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {
