I am trying to get a checkbox event handler to change the text value of a string.[code]...
I need a datagrid, which contains checkbox (4 no's) without multiple selection. And I also need a text area which should contain the selected checkbox's label/data. I tried using arraycollection but I am not getting.
View 2 RepliesI have a string which is ultimately the id of a CheckBox.
What I need to be able to do is to access the CheckBox's properties from the string
var myCheckBox:Object;
var myString:String;
myString = "checkbox_1"
myCheckBox = Object(myString); ?!?!
... and then I'd need to get to myCheckBox.selected, and myCheckBox.label etc
In Flex, is there an easy way to change the size of a Checkbox? I want to make the checkbox bigger, but the label beside it the same font size
View 2 RepliesI am encountering a bizarre Flex 3.4 issue. I have a class that acts a dataprovider to my entire application named "DataProvider.as":
package {
public class DataProvider {
[Bindable]
public static var email_enable:Boolean = true;
}}
In an mxml form, "Settings.mxml" I have a checkbox control which is bound to the email_enable variable of my dataprovider class:
<mx:CheckBox x="452" y="170" label="{Language.loadLanguageResource('lblEmail')}"
id="chkEmail"
selected="{DataProvider.email_enable}"
change="onChange()"/>
All is well as far as getting the value, if I set the variable in my dataprovider to either true or false, the checkbox reflects this change; however, if I click on the checkbox and change it's value, the dataprovider variable never reflects the change.
I would like the native Flex checkBox to change state only, when the box is clicked. If user clicks the label the state shouldn't change.
The click event cannot be muted as it is utilized in parenting components.
how to obtain such functionality? How to detect, that user has clicked the label?
I have a Flex repeater that has a complex item template. When a checkbox is clicked, I need to toggle the visibility of a sibling button contained in the same repeater template. Since I can't add binding expressions to event handlers, I can't pass in the repeater item's index.
How can I access sibling components inside a repeater item?
Because the color of the background image in my application is very dark, and the Alpha is very low, when I hover my mouse over a checkbox, the text is scarcely visible. I've scoured the interwebz in vain for what property to set, either at design-time or in the MouseOver event for the checkbox and just can't figure out what property or setStyle property to alter to be able to control the color of the checkbox text when the mouse pointer is hovering over it.

View 1 RepliesThis PHP contact form works well and is very simple. I have one checkbox in the fla file. However, it keeps displaying 'No' in the email message field, whether the checkbox is selected or not. It should display 'Yes' if the checkbox is selected, and 'No' if the checkbox is unselected.Here is the PHP:
PHP Code:/DESTINATION--------------------------
$destination="***@***.com";
//-------------------------[code]....
I can't change the name of the checkbox into this form. I need to change the names. I enclose them the form. [URL]

Is the caret a "skinnable" property of text input? note that I am not asking about the mouse pointer cursor which can be set using the CursorManager.

how do you change the text inside of a text control when a user has clicked a button. I could not find a way to do this. I used an event handler to input a .xml to a string and then to the text control. This doesn't seem to work.

I created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.
Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.

View 1 RepliesI am working a flash app that will display a block of text into a dynamic text field when a checkbox is clicked on. I have been looking around for this kind of thing but to no avail. I currently have the checkbox nested within two movieclips and need it to display the block of text upon click event in a dynamic text field that is found on the main timeline in its own layer. Ideally I would like the block of text to appear where the text curser is currently in the dynamic text field. I plan to have a lot of checkboxes each containing their own block of text to display.

I have a very general requirement that seemed very simple: Step 1: Load a new external JPEG image into a MC with a string var encoding a string caption in the URL link (VALUE="../fadeTest.swf?someTextVar=TestCaption") within the EMBED / OBJECT sections. I know how to do this and it semed to work fine. STEP2: When the JPEG is loaded I would like the substituted Text to Fade In over the JPEG. The JPEG should also fade in before the Text. The fade rate should be programmable.
