Is there a way to display subscripts in flash in a dynamic text box trough html. I couldn't find on the supported tags for html a way to do subscripts.
View 6 RepliesIt's been a about seven years since I have done any work with Flash but now my employer is asking me to create a custom online magazine tool (we're publishers). I've been immersed in PHP and AJAX and building Mac apps with XCode so I've got a bit of a relearning curve to go through.
Anyway, I'm pulling in some XML into a Flash file and want to display some of the various node values in a dynamic text box. That was easy enough, AS3 makes it a charm compared to the dark old days. The problem I am running into is displaying the values - its kind of a runsheet for a magazine - num of pages, ads, features, etc. etc. and I want to display that in one text box in a list type format. So I have something like this:

I am trying to get a text file to display in a dynamic scrolling textbox as HTML. What do I need to put in my code so that the textbox displays it correctly and leaves out the HTML tags?
View 4 RepliesI'm loading numbers from an external txt file which appear in my dynamic text field as "5" or "25" but I'd like to have a few "0"s in front there (so "0005" and "0025" for example).
View 1 RepliesI 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.

There's a movieclip, lets call it myMovieClip. Inside this movieclip there is a dynamic text box, lets call this one myText. Now to change the text within this text box that is embedded in a movieclip, it's simply:

However, what if there is a variable, called myVariable that stores the instance name of the text box. With only one text box I know it's pointless, but for the sake of example, lets leave it simple. So, suddenly the code looks like:

View 1 RepliesI have a dynamic textfield being populated with an xml files' content. I then have a css stylesheet loaded into format the text. This all works great, but what doesn't work is the ability to bold some of the words in that text. I have both the regular and bold versions of the font embedded into the swf, I can test out just a bold block of text and it works fine. The css is also working as it will change the size of the text that I tell it to. Everything is working, but for some reason I am not able to get the bolder version of the font to display in the same text box as the regular one. I have also tried to change fonts but had the same outcome.

I have a INPUT TEXT inside a mc called "txt mc" and DYNAMIC TEXT in the main time line.I'm trying to display what's typed in the INPUT TEXT (my_Input_Txt) in the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes (my_Dyn_Txt1, my_Dyn_Txt2, my_Dyn_Txt3).Here's the code. But it won't simply work perhaps because the INPUT TEXT is inside a MC. I need to have the INPUT TEXT INSIDE THAT MC while having the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes out in the main time line.
my_Input_Txt.onChanged = function() {
my_Dyn_Txt1.text = my_Input_Txt.text;
my_Dyn_Txt2.text = my_Input_Txt.text;
my_Dyn_Txt3.text = my_Input_Txt.text;

I'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;

I have created a textArea element but cannot display my HTML content. If I just display regular text it works or if I change the textArea element to a RichEditableText element it works fine. Since this is for a mobile app I would prefer to use the textArea element as recommended by Adobe.Here is the MXML code for the textArea. All I get is the border and no content displayed.
<s:TextArea id="myHelp" editable="false" width="100%" height="100%">

I am trying to make a textfield to display the player's score. I call the textfield "score", and want it to display "Player Score: [score]".

This isn't working, but I feel that it must be very close. What is the proper method for doing this?
I'm trying to display some HTML text in my AS script. The HTML text is the following:

myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
_parent.scrolledMC.sponsors_txt.htmlText = unescape(this.Sponsors);
_parent.scrolledMC.sponsors_txt.autoSize = true;
} myData.load("sponsor.txt");
When it shows up in my movie though it doesn't do the table. It just puts it all on one line. I also have my behavior to multiline and my anti-alias is "Use device fonts". I also have the html button checked on my dynamic text box.

I am trying to display an HTML formated file in text area component using Action 3.0. The following script does not generates compiler errors, each function seems to be executed yet the file is not displayed. When trying the same code with myCV.txt and myCV_TA.text = (loader1.data) the text file is displayed OK. Flash MX and actionscript 2.0 had handled that differently but with success?
-----------------------------------------------------
var loader1:URLLoader =new URLLoader();loader1.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,displayText);
textload("myCV.html");//---------------------
function textload(file:String){ loader1.load(new URLRequest(file));trace("in textload");}
function displayText(e:Event){ myCV_TA.htmlText = (loader1.data);trace("in displaytext");}

I have a result screen that shows bonus points and such. I want each text field to increment one after another and also have it increment by a certain amount each frame. Result Screen pops up. First is the player score check the player score, is it more than the score we want to display if the player score is greater than the player display score by 100 increase the player display score by 100 if the player score is greater than the player display score by 10 increase the player display score by 10 else increase the player display score by 1 when finished move to the next score...and so on. I have thought of using timers to move from one score to the next, but not being in an Event.ENTER_FRAME it only does one if then moves to the next one.
Also the if statement for incrementing the score looks ridiculous and I'm thinking there has to be a better way to do it. I was thinking of making it a separate function but then I wouldn't know what to return, or how to return it so it looks like its increasing and not just showing the total number instantly. I'll try to expand on it a little more.
I am a complete rookie in ActionScript2.0/Flash.I just started learning regarding a project. My problem is I want to display data from MySQL in a DropDown Menu in Flash. the SendAndRecieve functionality only aids us to receive any responses,right?(Please correct me If I am Wrong.

View 2 RepliesIm trying to display text but that isnt working.
I create a dynamic text on the stage and assign it an instance '_test'. Then i have the following code _test.text = "hello";
When the code is ran, 'e' is displayed.
I'd like to be able to click on each of the buttons and have the background color change and also have its color name loaded in the dynamic text field. E.g. Clicking the white square would change the background color to white and should also display the text ''white'' in the dynamic text box. I've sorted out the colour changing part with the following code:
[Code]...
Just starting out and really being trying to learn some game making basics etc but seem to be stuck on displaying some text.
If I have a dynamic text box with instance name "instance" and this is placed on stage. I have no problem making this read as my variable using this code:
Code:
function onLoad()
{_root.instance.text = variable};
when I have dynamic text within a movie clip and this movieclip is brought to the stage using attachMovie.
To clarify what I mean, I have a movie clip of an emeny zombie named EnemyZombie, inside this movie clip is a text box to show it's HP (ie, it's health left over), the text box has instance name EnemyZombieHP.
Now, I use this code in the onEnterFrame function to spawn a new zombie ever few seconds:
Code:
//Adds 1 to the timer
enemyTimer = enemyTimer + 1;
//Adds new enemy to the stage every 2 seconds (60 frames)
[Code].....
This spawns the enemies as I wish but i'm stuck on how to make each one spawn with the EnemyZombieHP text reading the variable hp which I definded as 10 earlier.
Everything works correctly below. The new button displays on stage, but the nested dynamic text (instance name "campText") will not display.
1119: Access of possibly undefined property campText through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton.
Here's the short code:
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.text.TextField;

I noticed if you try to display a dynamic text in an angle (modify==>transform==>Scale and Rotate) it won't display anything. Why is that. How do you fix this?
