In order to put some dynamic content into my flash site, I have used loadvariables in order to retrieve into variables some html content.I have also used dynamic text (renderred as html) in order to retrieve the values of those variables (using Var parameter).My problem is that whenever html indicates <img> tags, those images are loaded when the dynamic texts first appeared in screen.

View 9 RepliesSince no one is able to answer my question in this thread, I like to ask a simpler question. How do I create a tween that will slide my texts from left to the middle and then pause for 3 seconds then continue to slide off stage to the right?
slideXTween = new Tween(txtField, "x", Regular.easeOut, postXFrom, postXTo, 1, true);
The above code is what I have so far for sliding texts from left to the middle. However, I couldn't figure out how to pause for 3 seconds and then continue to the right and eventually off the stage.

View 4 RepliesI am trying to build a menu. I have created few texts and converted into buttons, which goto some url on click. Now, I have to add "fire burning" animation to these texts on mouseover. I have a movie clip of burning fire. I want to reuse the same movie clip. Also, when the animation plays, I want text to be visible on top of flames.
Can I reuse one mc or should I create multiple clips (or instances)? How to bring the text to foreground? Guidelines and if possible,

View 1 RepliesI found this really weird bug on a site I did a little while back. Click on a page (any page), then click somewhere outside the flash content (like another window) then again choose another page. The text dissappears every time, but only when I do exacly that (if you for example click outside the browser before first changing the page the text doesn't disappear).
I can't figure this out; I haven't even got a clue where to start looking for the problem. The text is created dynamically, and every time you click on a link its htmltext changes to highlight the current page - that is all that is happening. The font is embedded into the site, the texts position is always on whole numbers.
I've done my fair share on searching for this, and I couldn't really find anything about it except CSS related stuff, which is not what I am looking for. I have a text field on the stage with font Arial, and I embed Arial Regular, Arial Bold, and Arial Italic, and set my font to Font1* (Arial Regular). Then I set textfi.htmlText = "<b>HI</b> YO"; Now this worked fine in my old Flash program, but it won't recognize it in the new one.

I was contemplating which is the best or easiest way to create three texts with links an Internet site. One method is creating a static text in design mode and only show the static texts with hyperlink or creating all these programmatically by loading external texts and adding the link in code.I was thinking that to be more flexible and portable, creating the hyperlink to some texts programmatically is better but I'm not sure where to start on that. I know how to load external texts now but I'm not sure how to add hyperlinks to it.

I have an ArrayCollection named authors with lot of texts of different size. I would like to list all info about authors in a way that each item has a size according to the text.
Here is the code:

<mx:VBox width="100%">
<mx:Text text="{data.name}"/>

View 1 RepliesI have a flash that reads all it's content from an XML file, alot of dynamic texts, it's in AS2 and it uses Dynamic text variables to assign the text from XML to the dynamic text.
Now I'm migrating it to AS3, I can't use Dynamic text variables any more, I know I can assign it manually one by one, but I have more than 200 movies to migrate, and it would take a lot of time to do it.I thought of one solution: If I can read all the dynamic texts in the whole movie at once, I can build a nice loop to read them one by one and assign the text from XML to it's respective texts.
I was following this example but this example uses Dynamic TextField and onEnterFrame. Here is my code and it's not working.

I am working developing a big project and I have a question regarding the formatting of the text, project wide. Is it a good idea to format all of the text using style sheets ? Including here, buttons labels, headers, and so on.
Or is it a better idea to use a combination of style sheets and the TextFormat class depending on the situation ?
Using style sheets project wide seems like a good idea but there might be things that I am missing and I would like some advices from people with more experience.
I have been working on a project where by pressing on three different buttons three different animations will occur.What I need help now is making sure that whenever I click on the various buttons I get different text showing in a text box I created on the stage.So far I created a dynamic text field, but I do not know how to load the various texts whenever I click on the buttons.

How would I use ASFunction with dynamic texts? Can someone gimme a example (code not .fla)...How would I display the IP address of a person with flash?Complicated: A person views my signature. It shows the IP Address of a person along with a input box for their name. They type in their name. How would I make it so that, after a name is typed in and a button is pressed, both the name and the IP address are sent to a file? Only I can view the file. Well, the file could be called list.php or list.txt...and then I can CHMOD it so others can't view it...

View 2 RepliesI purchased a template from template monster that has a Flash Intro. It has a header with a previous and next button and three photos.When the site loads up the first photo drops into place and text flies out from the sides of the photo then when you hit the next button the next photo drops in with its text and so on.I was able to change the photos and text and all works fine. What I want is for the banner to automatically rotate these three images and texts every 4 seconds or when someone hits those next or previous buttons.
Right now the images/text only move if you hit the next or previous buttons. In dreamweaver I set the Flash to autoplay and loop but that did nothting.
I have these movie clips you see..url...click on the text behind the white boxes.
1st I can't get the link texts to sit on top of the white boxes when it loads.
2nd, after loading the second or third box you'l begin seeing my swapDepths issues surface. I've tried pretty much every combination of swapDepths solutions.
Here is what I need. When the page loads and the box is small the link text is on top so you can read what you're clicking. When you click the link the section enlarges and I need the section to be on top. Whatd'ya think? Anyone up to a challenge? As a bonus question I can't figure out why the text goes all crazy looking at random... even the stationary text but not the dynamic text.
