View 1 RepliesI'm playing around with a messaging type of application. Does anyone know how, or of any tutorials on to "appending" html text to text areas in flex and flex mobile projects? And specifically how I could take that and basically "append" a sprite inline to the text when i need to? Something simple like:Username: some text right here!So, Anyone have any experience "appending" sprites or simple text formatting?how to solve these issues!EDIT:Based on an answer below it was sugguested that it's as simple as...textAreaInstance.htmlText += "<b>Username:</b> some text right here!";But its not. you can't do .htmltext with a text area. you can on a text field, so i tried
var TF:TextField = new TextField();
TF.width = 200;
TF.height = 200;

View 2 RepliesI would like to first add the xml to my flash. Fine I can do this.But I have a number of buttons, where when I click say CW1, i get the information from the XML file with a node of CW1. I have all the xml set up fine.As I have about eight different postcode types.
ST, CW, CH, TF, WV, WS, DE, SK, SY, and each of these may have numbers that follow, i.e ST1, ST2, ST3 and so forth.

I am trying to make a text editor in Flex. i can move image on mouse click. Problem is it moves with the key up or down handler. But it moves out of text area after the last line in textarea. And it also doesn't move with scroll.
View 1 RepliesI managed to show the output of a shell command in TextArea of flex by calling following php file via HTTPService and then using the dataprovider attribute of TextArea to show the returned output.
<?php
$output = shell_exec('ls -l');
return $output
?>
Now i have a C file which prints some lines (by using printf command of C) when i run it in shell using
./myCfile
But following php code seems to not return anything as my TextArea remains empty
<?php
$output = shell_exec('./myCfile');
return $output
?>

View 1 RepliesIn flex, how to remove empty lines in text area?
View 1 RepliesI'm having trouble figuring out how I should go about making an auto scroll functionality for a text area in Flex.
What I have is a text area that loads text from an XML file at startup, and displays it in a text area. There is also an audio track that is plays along with the text. As the words from the audio file is read out, the corresponding word in the text area is highlighted red. What I want to happen is that if the highlighted word is below the visible range of the text area I want to scroll the scroll bar to adjust accordingly to the selection.

View 2 RepliesI'm building a site and I would like to add a scrollbar to a text area that swaps out xml text files. Currently, I have up and down arrows to scroll the text, but I would like to have an actual scrollbar instead since there is a lot of text in some of the sections. Here is a link to the current version of the site with the up and down arrows: [URL]
I can make the scrollbar work just fine if I put the text in the first frame, but whenever I set it up to call on text files, then the scroll bar won't work. Obviously, I'm pretty new at Flash. I've attached an FLA with the text box.
How can i make a text blinka via a dynamic text area? what do i need to make this?

been wondering if it's possible to load external text(for example a text from notepad) to my "text area" in flash.?
View 3 RepliesBasically, my whole website's going to be in Flash, but I want to be able to update one page (sort of a news/blog page) without having to edit the Flash file every time. I'm assuming the easiest way to do this would be to set up either a scroll pane or a text box and pull the text in from a .txt file. That way I could continue to add on to the .txt file, and Flash would always pull in the current version. So, my issues are:
1. I have no idea where to start with the code for something like that. Is it a LoadVar? Do I physically put a scroll pane or a text area in the frame and put the action on that, or do I put the action on the frame and have it call up a text area component?
2. Will the text scroll automatically, or is that something else I would have to add in? I plan on adding to this text file for awhile, so it could end up being a lot of text over time.
3. Would I be able to format the text in the .txt at all? For instance, if I hit enter to put in a paragraph break, would that register once it's pulled into Flash, or would I have to put in an html paragraph break or something? That may be a dumb question, but as I said, I'm not exactly fluent in ActionScript (or any other programming language for that matter).
I am trying to display an HTML formated file in the text Area.It should be straightforward task using the following code:
//----------load text file------------------
var loader1:URLLoader =new URLLoader();loader1.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,displayText);[code].....
This uses a text area component dragged to stage and named myCV_TA. No text is displayed with that code.It does work when an ordinary text is used and myCV_TA.html/text is changed to myCV_TA.text.Tried many things and decided to live with the simple text file and apply some formating to it://----create textformat object
var mytextformat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();mytextformat.font = "verdana";mytextformat.size = 16;mytextformat.color = 0x006600;[code]....
This code does not apply any formating, the simple text file is displayed but without any formating .
I have text that is in a scrollable box using the scroll bar component and I would like to be able to format headlines differently than the main body copy, etc. How do I do this? The text is dynamic, multiple line.Was hoping not to have to use external files.
