Comparison of number or string is understandable. But how come when in flash AS3.0, we do :
var a:TextField = new TextField();
var b:TextField = new TextField() ;
[Code]....
Is their some Application-wide ID, that flash gives to each component instance. Or is it compairson of the strings ( comparing the whole path of each component )

View 1 RepliesI have four checkbox and store the value in the Array. So if check all the boxes than I have an Array which have value = 1,1,1,1
I want to compare that with a variable which has same value 1,1,1,1
If the both value is same than it will display correct feedback.
var user_response:Array = ["0", "0", "0", "0"];
var correct_answer = "1,1,1,1"
Here is the code
if (user_response == correct_answer ){
trace("Correct");
}
else {
trace("Incorrect");
}
I keep getting "Incorrect" even if I had selected all checkboxes.
Is this possible?, it evaluates to false, and I need that evaluates to true

I'm trying to cut down the amount of code I type to complete a project. Using things like ?: and &&= over the typical if statements. Is there a way to compare a single variable to a group of variables? example...
var1==var2 || var1==var3 || var1==var4 ? doSomething : doSomethingElse;
is there a short way to check if var1==var2,var3,var4?

I am building a project where I got XML text displayed on a textfield. How can I change a specific word's color through actionscript 3 instead of doing it on XML? I though of creating a String variable for my word and then using that variable in my textfield.text, it works but is it possible to set a color for that variable?

I have a variable called AICC_Student_ID, which is talking to an LMS to pull in a student's unique ID (usually the same as their NTID). I need to take that JS variable value, and slap it into a String for treatment.I looked at the work it would take to use SWFObject, and since this little swf is going onto literally thousands of pages, manually hacking each and every one is just not worth it.

So, my requirement is: Whenever, I place Mouse pointer on the created hyperlink, just it shows a cursor which appears in text-documents(i.e., a black vertical line with 2 small horizontal lines up and down to this vertical line).Instead, I need to show HandCursor when we Roll_over on the hyperlink.
View 4 RepliesI am using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 2.0.
I have a TextField component that has some text added during the movie. This textfield has html set to true. The text that I am passing to it has html tags.
I want to copy the plain text that is displayed during the movie from the textfield to the clipboard without the html tags.
I've a TextArea component in my MovieClip. When I double click on it, I want to switch to TextField component, allowing me to change its content. When I click outside, I want to restart its original class (TextArea).
I'm doing this, but didn't work:
element.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, changeName);
private function changeName(e:MouseEvent):void{
e.target.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
}
Where element is a TextArea (classic and dynamic text).
This is how my MovieClip looks. "Name" is the TextArea that I want to allow user changes. I'm setting it like this:
Nombre de instancia = Instance name (empty)
Texto clasico (classic text)
Texto dinamico (dynamic text)
The MovieClip is controlling my by own base class (called 'ConfLayer'). Inside it I have this:
public function doStuff(e:MouseEvent):void{
// element = TextArea 'Name'
element.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, changeName);
} private function changeName(e:MouseEvent):void {
var tarea:TextArea = e.target as TextArea;
var tf:TextField = tarea.TextField; // this line throwing error
tf.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
}
Because AS3 gives me errors, I tried this:
private function changeName(e:MouseEvent):void {
e.target.TextField.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
}
When I double-click on TextArea element, the previous string removes and I can't write nothing.
I would like to create a scrollbar for a dynamic textfield but do not want to use the common component. I found this script: [URL]. It seems very easy, but don't manage to have it work. And I don't understand how it manages the scrolling. it's only the 4 most essential lines I do not understand.
View 1 RepliesSimply as I can put it, I drag a Datefield component on stage and then create a dynamic text field on stage. I'm looking for the actionscript to make the selected date from the DateField also appear in the dynamic textfield.
I've found the script to do this for a numeric stepper
var my_nstep:mx.controls.NumericStepper;
var nstepListener:Object = new Object();
nstepListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object){
myText.text = evt_obj.target.value;
}
my_nstep.addEventListener("change", nstepListener);
I've tried modifying this script to work with the datefield but all I can get to happen is for the dynamic textfield to say "undefined."

I've viewed the properties of the TextInput, List, and Combobox components and can't find anything that will help me do this. I created the class mentioned in the link, and successfully linked the TextInput library symbol, but when I add a trace statement to the class I get nothing.
I used strcmp(x,y) in C++. Do you know how to do that in as3?
How can I get the previous focus/be able to compare strings?
View 2 RepliesI am having some trouble with a dynamic html-enabled textfield and the uiscrollbar component. I created a dynamic textfield on the stage, named it "mytext". Enable it for HTML and make it multiline. I added this action: mytext.htmlText="test<BR><BR>test<BR><BR>test" The html shows up just fine. I add a uiscrollbar to it. It is definitely targeted for "mytext". Now when I test it I get: _level0.mytext in the textbox instead. When I trace mytext.htmlText, I get the correct HTML but it just doesn't show up. When I shorten my content so that the UIscrollbar isn't necessary, the HTML is again displayed correctly. Now if I update the code to say instead:

Here is what I'm doing now - basically creating a lookup object for testing if an item exists.
