so ive just been fiddling with a loadVars to load in some html text, into my dynamic text box, with render as html button tagged. it only loads in a certain amount of my text file (which is a .txt -- and my fonts have been embedded)./.
Code:
var textData:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
textData.onLoad = function()
{
[Code].....
And yeah, it just doesnt load in all the wonderful text I have written.
I made a Flash-based "news section" for my website. This file uses a text field (with render-as HTML) and an instance name of dynamicText. The actionscript fills this text field with content from a TXT file called homeNews.txt.Everything works great, except if I make additions to the TXT file and re-upload to the server, the Flash file still calls an old version of the TXT file from my cache. This even happens after emptying the cache. This is a huge problem if I need to add daily updates. This problem only occurs on the server and not when testing locally.
Here is the code I put in my Flash file:
Code:
Ext_text = new LoadVars();
Ext_text.onLoad = addText;
Ext_text.load("homeNews.txt","POST");
[code]....
I need to load an image and 2 dynamic text fields tied to the TWEEN CLASSand controlling the SWF file via HTML ONLY - no PHP or external .TXT fileI want to change info in HTML code to change content of the SWF filecan this be done?
View 2 RepliesI am working with loadVars in an swf file embedded in an html page. The script is written to add a text string to existing textfield. The documentation I have does not address this situation. How do I get the return value from the server to the embedded SWF file in this situation?
View 4 RepliesI'd like to load a .txt file containing HTML with LoadVars, and have a link within the HTML code perform a Flash action. I'm sure I've seen this before but I'm not sure of the syntax, and I can't seem to find the documentation. If anyone could provide information or links to information on this, I would appreciate it.To clarify--let's say I've already loaded my HTML into Flash. I want a code kind of like this:
HTML Code:
<a action="myFunction();">Start this movie</a>
where myFunction() is defined in the Flash movie already.
Is there any workaround to load in complete html pages with LoadVars ?
I have this client that wants to update some pages (just adding and removing text and pictures), but I would love to do it in action scripting and have him update an external file.
Now I could tell him to remove the tags from <html> to <body> and from </body> to </html>, save it as text file and add a variable (like myText at the top of his file, but that wouldn't make things much easier for him.
He'll probably start to complain that it would have been easier if I'd made it in html instead of flash

One of the moderators, could you've a look at this tutorial: [URL] it doesn't works with me, maybe because I've 2004 so if you change loadVars() into LoadVars() it should work

I have html text being loaded into an Actionscript created dynamic text field using LoadVars, and any line within the text which contains a bullet point or an accented character displays in bold. The txt file containing the html text has been saved as Unicode in order to display the characters. Cannot work out why this is happening
View 1 RepliesI am trying to control the visibility of a movie clip using a boolean variable contained within a text file.
The mc i want to make invisible is in a swf which is loaded into a 'master.swf' using a MovieClipLoader object.
I have managed to get text to display across various boxes in my loaded (child) MC using a loadvars obeject defined in the masterMC and used by the childMC. I just cant seem to be able to get the value of my Boolean variable to go with the text variables and therefore control the visibilty of my MC.
This is my code - (in the master movie):
var myLV:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLV.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {

I'm trying to send a negative value to a text file using loadvars().
so i did this:
send_lv.xPos = currObj._x;
but if the _x is negative, the minus is replaced by '%2D' How do i send the minus sign??
I'm using a Loadvars to change a text field with buttons, and would like a transition between the text field changes. I have an MC for the transition that moves a block to cover the text at label "up" and one to come down, revealing the new text at label "down". so i did
Code:
btn_mc.onRelease = function(){
transition.gotoAndPlay("up");
field_txt.text=text.text1;
transition.gotoandPlay("down");
}
but the problem is that all those actions happen at once, the text changes before it is covered and the transition MC spazzes out because it doesn't know which to goto first. Is there I can set this function up to be more ordered, so it plays "up" and THEN loads the text, and THEN goes down.
The code it concerns is this:
(which I found here on kirupa i belive)
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
[code].....
Im trying to load a variable from a text file with loadVars.The txt file has this -

load_lv.onLoad = loadTextVariables;[code]....
I am trying to obtain the variables/contents of a php or a text file from my server using loadVars(), and the problem is that flash can get data from almost every server but from mine. (some shared hosting service) I just tried the code provided in the help files:

my_lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {

I'm sure that I did no mistake in typing the URL, for it works fine in the browser (also no spaces, no freaky chars), and when i change the URL to another domain (and put the txt file on that server) everything works fine. I tried both possibilities "network access" and "local access" as well as running from an exe projector. But no chance.
Just completed this project http:[url].... however I'm getting mixed results with the text using the LoadVars method mainly with line breaks. On the live and store pages there is a text link within the copy, any idea of how I can format that as xml tags as I'm finding that easier to control, the rest of the site mainly uses xml text just these two pages are using external .txt docs because of the urls. Surely there is a way?
View 1 RepliesI have on one file (player1.fla), a movie that plays MP3s from an array, which I specify in that movie. The code for that works just fine.I've duplicated the file and renamed it to a different one (player2.fla) so I could load the MP3s from a variable (array) on a text file. This way, to add more songs, all I would have to do is update the text file.
I changed the code around a tiny bit in the "player2.fla" file to accomodate for loading a text file, but nothing more.*My Problem* The text file loads properly and displays the Title of the mp3, but it won't play the mp3.The text file looks something like this: (just an example)
Code:
&songs=song1.mp3, song2.mp3, song3.mp3
&songTitles=my song1, my newer song, the third song
My script is very similar to this: (shortened; just an example)
Code:
lv = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function() {[code]......

When these files load the text box flashes ("undefined") and then loads the text.
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.
