I need to make a parser to be able to extract logical structure from a text input in order to construct a query for some web service.
I tried to use regular expressions but it gets really complicated to handle imbrication logic
ex:
( (foo1 and bar) or (foo2 and bar2) ) and ( (foo3 and bar3) or foo4 ) and "this is quoted"
the result should be something like this:

I'm trying set a Boolean value based on whether anything has been entered in an Input Textfield. On the stage is a button and an Input text field. With the following code...
var isFilled:Boolean = false;
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, tryit);
function tryit(event:MouseEvent){
if(testing.text == ""){
isFilled = false;
trace("The field is blank");
}else{
isFilled = true;
} trace(isFilled);
trace(testing.text);
}
When the button is pressed,
isFilled is traced as
true
Regardless of whether there's anything in the text field. It seems like the first part of the conditional is being skipped.

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to make the input text box on the stage to be transparent (not the text, the background).
View 1 RepliesI'm currently having difficulty with input text fields. I have a flash file that begins with a form for the destined user to input text. Once they have input their text they click a button to continue and user is now shown a results page comprising of the text they have just entered. This i have managed to do.
However, when users click the 'go back button' to return to the form, possibly to correct a mistake they may have made, it seems that the text that they had entered previously has now been lost, and the input text fields have gone back to their original state.
how i can allow my users to return back to the form to make text changes, and have the form remember what text was inputed by the user and does not wipe the input text fields empty?
There is a lot of different topics allover on the interweb about how to make custom scrollbar for the dynamic text fields but none for the input text fields. I'm trying to do an email form that understands when to need a scrollbar, how to move vertical position of the scrollbar when moving cursor in the lines of the written text and so on.

does anyone know how to make the initial text in an input text box disappear once your cursor changes from the arrow to the type cursor?

View 7 RepliesI have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

View 2 Repliesthe last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
