I know the title may be funny for you but I am actually facing it. My page has a checkbox and textbox. I have a flash control (not developed by and so I don't have it's code) and a button inside that control. When the button is clicked inside flash control it causes redirection(or may be postback) to the same page but the values typed the user in textbox and checkbox are no longer available. They are lost! How can I handle this stuff? I am pulling my hair apart. I don't even the source code of that control
Im adding videos to my stage with AS3 and was wondering if it is possible to then add the standard flashh video controls to the video with script..[code]
I am trying to build a dynamic xml driven application The xml file contains an <item> node which in turn contains <title> and <description> information The finished product should :for each <item> node
- create a dynamic mc
- set _y offset
- loadMovie template.swf
- populate the dynamic text fields (of template.swf) with <title> and <description> data next
At the moment I am having problems with the last stage [populating the dynamic text fields]. The xml data is available. The only issue is correctly referring to the dynamic mc and its controls / variables.
I have a TabBar Control with 3 tab, i need to add controls(Button,Label) dynamically in to each tab, I can add the controls to the initial selected tab but when i add to next tab , i am getting Null exception error That is when TabBar property selectedIndex="0" means i can add to 1st tab.but not in 2 and 3rd. when Tabbar property selectedIndex="1" means i can add to 2nd tab.but not in 1 and 3rd.
This is a really easy one that I thought would be easily found on google but I can't think of the terminology. I'm using CS4 and AS3 with a few multi-line dynamic text boxes beneath one another. When I populate the top text box I would like it to automatically push down the other text boxes beneath it when the content flows on to extra lines.
At the moment it only wraps to the gap that is between each text box but then stops when reaching the text box beneath. Is there a property to allow for this (I've worked in Silverlight and there was on controls there) that I can just set or will I have to manually implement this and call functionality to re-set all the controls y properties each time I change the text in the text box?
i have the controls for car number 1 that would be the arrow keys if [code]but how can i make controls for car 2.i wann use wasd but i cant figure out how the key.a doesnt work.
ive got some dynamic _x _y values coming from an xml file, and i can trace these out fine. xml_x = 300 xml_y = 240 or whatever. However when I try to send a mc to those values, using either load either or enterFrame the clip doesnt do anything at all. Is this because flash is treating the 300 from <xpos>300</xpos> in my xml file as a string rather than an integer?
im having a hard time figuring out how to get the _x,_y,_width,_height of dynamically loaded images. What do i need to do this; is it possible?im having everything load into a container Mc.heres a piece of it
I did not have any problems on CS4 but I encountered this error below when I used CS5. Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts. Now that the line of error is cleared. However, I am still having problems with my dynamic text fields which worked with correct values in CS4 but gave the incorrect values in CS5.
I have created a dynamic TextArea and want retrieve the value and display in the trace.To run the code below you must drag the TextArea component into the stage.
I have a movie that contains a series of radio button groups, which each have their own accompanying dyn text box. When a certain radio button is selected, a pre-determined value is loaded into each respective groups' text box, via "onRelease".
Now, I can get these values to appear fine in each text box, but I then have a fourth text box (amount_total), into which I want to have the sum of all the previous text box's values.
I have a submit button with the following actions on the first frame of the timeline:
I'm not a programmer but have been using Flash for awhile. This is my first heavy dive into variables.I'm putting together a Quiz game where I pull the information from a txt file. I can get everything to display and work fine except for the adding of a total score.I have a series of values in a text file and load it into my movie. Depending upon what button I push, I want to take the value and add it to the total score. The next button I push I want it to add that value to the new total score.
I'm trying to set up a calculator for a couple of formulas I need to use for some schoolwork. I thought it would be a lot easier if I could just put the numbers in there and hit enter.I can't figure out how to transfer the numbers from the input box to the dynamic box though =/. I figured I'd try to get going really easy, just do a input box, when you click on a button, a dynamic box displays whatever is in the input box. I cant get it to work though . I tried various variations of codes, Heres some of them:
I am popultating a dynamic text box with values from a database.I need/want the location of the text box to be at a random position on the stage, so I have been using:[code]I see that the htmlText is getting set, and with what looks like good html, and I see that text gets set with the non html part from the htmlText.Is it not possiable to calculate the width of the text when html is set to "true"?
I'm a front end designer, so I don't have much experience with coding and I'm having a lot of trouble finding a solution to this problem. What I want to do is take the value of $MyState in the php code below and get a flash file located on the same page to recognize the value..
PHP Code: $MyState = $_GET['MyState']; MyState is defined dynamically through the address bar, i.e. http://www.mysite.com/mypage.php?MyState=Something
The value of MyState is constantly changing so doing a loadvars from mypage.php won't work. Is there a way to loadvars and get the value of what is in the address bar? _url also does not work. _url is seen as mysite.com/myflashfile.swf.
Or does anyone know of any other ways to get the results I'm looking for?
I'm making a program that has to write random names to the screen.I'm loading the names from an external .txt-file called nameDataFile.txt The .txt-file contains this:
I have 7 Dynamic Text Boxes, each with a numeric value.. I need to add them together. Total = (ST2 + DO + GA + BO + CT + HT + TI);
This makes it 0000000 (Assuming each Dynamic Text had a 0 in it) Total = (ST2 ++ DO ++ GA ++ BO ++ CT ++ HT ++ TI); Gives errors. How do I do Simple Addition? It's been so long.
I have name my dynamic texts as inp1.text, inp2.text, inp3.text etc...Now my question is.. when applying actionscripts (2.0 is the one I use), how to increment their values?How I can make inp1.text as inp2.text?
on(release){ if (Number(inp1.text)>0){n1=Number(inp1.tex� else{n1=0;} if (Number(inp2.text)>0){n2=Number(inp2.tex� else{n2=0;}
I am a actionscript beginner trying to create a form using components in as3, am creating a booking form that combines the totals of each item using the checkbox component when selected and displays them within a text field.I have also tried to convert the values using .toString() method with no success. Here is the current script;
// Setting default values for the Textfields hTotal_txt.text = ("0"); sTotal_txt.text = ("0");
I thought the higher the depth number the closer to the viewer it was? I have created a movie which pulls back info from a database, on the original movie, once all the data was loaded, I created the required number of dynamic text boxes on the _root and everything worked perfectly. I then decided that I would need to display other information on other movie clips. So I decided to turn the movie into a movie clip, so that I could create other movie clips and load these as needed. I created a new blank movie, attached a blank movieclip (depth 0) as a container for the movie clips that will hold the different data.
I then used attachMovie(depth 1) to attach the original movieclip, which holds the database info. I then changed the original movie, so that it would create the text boxes in this movie clip(depth 3), so that when I decided to load another movie, I don't have to clear up text boxes on the root. When I run the movie, I get the background image for the data movie clip, but I don't see the text. I used trace to make sure that the text boxes were being created and the text values were assigned and they are. So why can't i see the text?
Well, I'm making a program that has to write random names to the screen.I'm loading the names from an external .txt-file called nameDataFile.txt[code]...
I was wondering if it is possible to capture whenever properties are set/accessed/created on dynamic objects?Basically, among others, I want to create a little quick system which acts as an Array and allows you to set the same value of all items inside of it.For example:
Code: var dynamicObjArray:DynamicObjectArray = new DynamicObjectArray(); dynamicObjArray.push(mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4, mc5, mc6);
I have 3 dynamic text boxes on the main movies stage that are getting their values from an externally loaded swf. If statements within the external movie loads the values from an xml file depending on which action is selected by the user. Now I have a fourth text box that needs to gather all the values that are loaded in the other 3 and add them together...placing zero if nothing is loaded. I have done various code tests...I get either NAN or _level0.total ...total is the instance name of one of the boxes, I am trying to access.
This sounds so simple, but its to save me doing things like this:
Code: var Lol:Array = new Array(); Lol["Rofl"] = 0;
_root.Lol_Rofl = Lol["Rofl"]; Just to get the array value to display in a dynamic textfield, is there any other more efficient way so that I do not need to declare a seperate variable with the value of the array data to get it to display?
I was wondering if it is possible to capture whenever properties are set/accessed/created on dynamic objects?Basically, among others, I want to create a little quick system which acts as an Array and allows you to set the same value of all items inside of it.[code]There are several workarounds, (including checking the current value each frame) but I want to know if there is any way of detecting changed properties at all.
