ActionScript 1/2 :: Finding The Linebreaks And Passing Text In The String
Aug 23, 2008I have a dynamic text field in flash that is populated by an input box. The dynamic text field has a maxmium width it can be. So i have it as multiline WITH wodrwap on. My problem is that I have to send this data to server and for the php to be able to text the text and output the text as it is displayed in flash. There seems to be no way of finding the linebreaks and passing them in the string as far as I can see?

PHP :: Flash - How To Capture Textarea With Linebreaks
May 14, 2011I'm trying to experiment with taking text from a textarea in a flex project and open it up in a php page. But the php isn't line breaking where it should be. An Example of the text i'd like to bring over to php would be:
You: Hi there
Them: Hello
You: This is a great example
Them: I know right?
Here's my php:
<?php
$text= $_GET['text'];
echo $text;
?>
Right now I came up with something like this in the actionscript...
var chatBox:String=chat_box.text;
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("savelog.php?text="+chatBox), '_blank');
I also tried something like:
var chatBox:String=chat_box.text.valueOf().replace("
","<br/>");
and
var chatBox:String=chat_box.text.toString().valueOf().replace("
","<br/>");
But apparently the isn't translating over no matter how I get the chatBox var so its not even making a <br/>. But, even if i did get that to work it wouldnt be ideal. Because eventually in the end I want to be able to just incorporate the pastebin API to paste this GET data and post it on there. And I don't think it would look too pretty with having <br/> after every line...Is it possible to bring this text over to php and recognize the line breaks in a way that would work well with what im eventually trying to accomplish?
ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField Can Contain Different Kinds Of Linebreaks?
Nov 20, 2011Can a TextField can contain different kinds of linebreaks?
I save and load text from an input field into an XML. I save it as CDATA tags including linebreaks.
This is what happens:
I type a text with linebreaks into the textfield I save the text to the XML I empty the textfield I load the xml into the textfield - everything looks as expected, linebreaks are present I save the exact same textfield again (the only difference this time the content was loaded and not handtyped)This time the XML does not contain any linebreaks when I load it again, the text doesn't have linebreaks
How can this be?
//here is an example that demonstrates the issue:
var xml1 = <xml>
<elm/>
</xml>;

Regex :: Eliminate Leading / Trailing Spaces Around Punctuation Marks
Jan 3, 2012I've got a textfield with a bunch of punctuation which is always surrounded by spaces. So that for instance: I don't recall saying 'pick up the boot' or 'now is the time'. But it's possible , so I may have. What is the regular expression syntax to get rid of these spaces? I'm working in actionscript. It's actually both leading and trailing, as you can see from the above example.
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: SelectionBeginIndex Not Taking Into Account Linebreaks?
Aug 4, 2009I've got a TextArea with some text in it. Sometimes there are linebreaks.
I'm using SelectionBeginIndex and SelectionEndIndex, along with substring() to get the current selection.
The only problem I'm running into is that if that selection includes any line breaks, it doesn't understand.
For example, if the text was:
Code:
This is my first line of text.
ABCDEF
Let's say I selected from the first letter all the way to, and including, B.
The output of the substring() with the begin and end selection, because of the linebreaks, would be:
Code:
This is my first line of text.ABCD
Here's the AS Code I used to illustrate the problem.
ActionScript Code:
checkButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, checkSelection);
myText.alwaysShowSelection = true;
myText.textField.alwaysShowSelection = true;
[Code].....
How can I capture those linebreaks? htmltext isn't an option, because there's no selectionBeginIndex and selectionEndIndex for htmltext...

View 5 RepliesFlex - Setting TextAlign To Centered On A TextArea Trailing Spaces Aren't Used To Determine Centerin?g
Oct 9, 2009I'm doing something wrong but I have a textarea where I've specified textAlign = center and if I type in text with several trailing spaces, it doesn't count the spaces towards centering the text. If I add another character to the text (after all the spaces) it then all of a sudden centers the line, is this a bug, can anybody think of a good solution?
To replicate:
-Create a textArea
-Set textAlign=center
Run the application and type in something like 'FOOBAR' followed by 10 spaces, note that it centers FOOBAR but stops centering the text while you're typing the spaces Now type another string like 'WTF', now it'll all of a sudden center the whole line.
ActionScript 1/2 :: Can't Strip Whitespace Or Returns
Mar 15, 2010I have few ActionScript skills. But I have built a multimedia career by stealing chunks of AS2 code and reworking them to suit my purpose. I have searched long and hard here for a solution to my current problem. I have found code here that seems to address it, but I cannot make it work. I simply have some textAreas that I wish to validate. The user may input text that could include extra spaces, returns, and odd capitalization. It would be easiest for me to simply strip out the capitals, spaces and returns. I found some simple code that changed the caps to lowercase:[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Changing Direction Of Thumbnail Strip?
Jun 27, 2006I have been following through the "gallery" tutorials here on Kirupa, and finally got to the third version (the one with the auto-scrolling thumbnails along the bottom, which scroll left / right based on the mouse pointer position, and the keyboard Left / Right scrolling).
I need my thumbnails to scroll UP and DOWN instead of LEFT and RIGHT, and have been trying to modify the ActionScript that came with the downloadable .fla file for the tutorial, but without complete success yet. (The functionality of the whole thing is still intact except for the scrolling thumbnails.)
Here is the portion of the AS that addresses the thumbnail scroller, and I have highlighted in red the variables that I believe need to be swapped around for it to scroll vertically instead of horizontally. I have made the obvious changes such as :-
_width changed to _height
hit_left changed to hit_up
hit_right changed to hit_down
_x changed to _y
[Code].....
Again, this is the ORIGINAL ActionScript, not my modified version. Only the items highlighted in red have been changed in my modified version. Basically when I test the movie now, I get the last two thumbnails of the gallery transposed one over the other, at the point of the movie clip instance, and no scrolling at all. When I use the UP and DOWN keys, I do get to "manually" scroll through the big images, but no change in the thumbnail area.
What have I screwed up or overlooked? I have scanned and scanned and scanned the above section of the AS, and I can't see any other variables that ought to be meddled with.
ActionScript 2.0 :: When Button 1 Is Pressed, It Should Go Back To Strip 1?
Jul 1, 2006I'm trying to help my girlfriend mock up a site for uni. I've been trying to get it so that when a certain button is pressed, it goes and plays from a certain frame number in a movie clip.In scene 1, there are 3 buttons and a movie clip. The movie clip has the tweens to the next strip in a comic. Initially strip 1 from the comic can be seen and when button 2 is pressed, it plays the tween in the movie clip and strip 2 can be seen. When button 1 is pressed, it should go back to strip 1.
Button 1 code:
Code:
on (release) {
if (movie1._currentframe == 10) {
movie1.gotoAndPlay(40);
}
}
I'd upload the .fla but it's too big. In the movieclip there are stop() actions to stop the movie from going to strip 3 if you only want strip 2 displayed.

Aug 9, 2009I wanted an animation to dispatch custom events as it cycled. It became apparent that not even trace() was running. After some searching, I found the following at Adobe:[URL].."If the SWF file contains any ActionScript code, Flex prints a warning during compilation and then strips out the ActionScript from the embed symbol. This means that you can only embed the symbol itself."
I also found a work-around by Grant Skinner at:[URL].. I can proceed, but I'm still wondering. Why does mxmlc strip ActionScript from Flash compiled resources when embedding their symbols into Flex apps using metatags?

Regex :: Use The String.match Method To Find Multiple Occurrences Of The Same Word In A String?
May 25, 2010In Actionscript and Adobe Flex, I'm using a pattern and regexp (with the global flag) with the string.match method and it works how I'd like except when the match returns multiple occurrences of the same word in the text. In that case, all the matches for that word point only to the index for the first occurrence of that word. For example, if the text is "cat dog cat cat cow" and the pattern is a search for cat*, the match method returns an array of three occurrences of "cat", however, they all point to only the index of the first occurrence of cat when i use indexOf on a loop through the array. I'm assuming this is just how the string.match method is. I want to find the specific indices of every occurrence of a match, even if it is of a word that was already previously matched.
how the string.match method is and if so
