Jun 7, 2011I'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;

Mysql :: Formatting Text In Flex?
Jun 8, 2010basically I have an admin flex page that allows the user to enter text into database. Then the frontend app will take the database entries and display them to the user.

Actionscript 3 :: Formatting Date Of Birth Text Input In Flex
Aug 26, 2011I have a TextInput for a user to enter their Date of Birth. Right now they just enter a string of numbers and I parse it for the correct values but this can be very inefficient. What I am looking to do is have the TextInput automatically formatted to look --/--/---- so the user can click in it and fill in the '-' fields while leaving the '/' for formatting purposes. Does anyone know of a good way to do this?

Dec 5, 2011string = justsomerandomstuff.Count:12562morerandomstuffI need to extract the "12562"I never know how far in the string this number will be, but I do know it's 1 character away from the word "Count". Somehow I would need to find the position of the string "Count within the variable, add 1 and extract the numbers. Also the the number is not always the same lenghth, so it would also have to work with this:string = justsomerandomstuff.Count:14238960morerandomstuff.
View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Grabbing / Formatting A String?
Jun 27, 2009grabbing / formating a string.My mission is connecting to a web site - let's say domain.com/one.html - which returns the following html code:
Code:
<HTML><meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache"></head><body>1,1,4,20,1,128,Harry J. All Stars - The Liquidator</body></html>
What I am looking for is a actionscript function which returns the text after the 6th comma - in this case:
Harry J. All Stars - The Liquidator
The thing is: The numbers are always different, but the text I want to "grab" and "show" in mytext.text (dynamic text) is ALWAYS present after the 6th comma.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Converting String With Formatting To Integer?
Jan 27, 2009I'm currently trying to convert a string that I get from a text box to an integer. Seems simple enough, but the string's got a pile of formatting on it.
This is the string (named answer):
Code:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="CENTER"><FONT FACE="Snap ITC" SIZE="20" COLOR="#FF0000" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">80</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>
As you can see, I want the 80 from that.
After a lot of tinkering around, I used the following to get the number out:
Code:
trace(parseInt(_root.answer.substring(120)));
Reason I used this is because I knew that the formatting would stay the same so I can slice off the same amount each time.
What I'm wondering is, is there a more elegant method of getting the entry that I want out of that mess of formatting? If not, then is there a way I can minimize the formatting?
Note: I'm using Adobe Flash CS4, with ActionScript 2.0.
ActionScript 3.0 :: String Function Removes Formatting?
Sep 6, 2011ok so i have this function basically it adds text to a given position in a textfield. it adds the text in the correct position but the problem is that it is screwing with the formatting i've applied to the textfield.
here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
txt.text = "hello world";
// adds text at the character index specified and returns the new string.
function addText(txt:TextField, txtToAdd:String, index:Number):String{

i also have a function which deletes but that isn't important right now. i was trying to avoid using html text but at this point i'd willing to give virtually anything a try.
ActionScript :: Date Formatting (String Data Type)
Nov 16, 2010I take a date (as a string data type) from the user. Now, I want to know if there is a a function in actionscript that will convert it to a date format. Right now, I am just parsing the string and concatenating the pieces back together. i.e.:
changeDateString = date.getFullYear().toString() + '/' + (date.getMonth()+1).toString() + '/' + date.getDate();
But for months like May, it will return "5" and not "05". I have similar problems for days like "9" or "7." Is there something in the library that will do this for me? (For the moment, I can go ahead and manually concatenate the "0" in front, but this seems like a hassle to do.)

Actionscript 3 :: Parsing The XML To Print A String With Formatting Attributes Per Word
Sep 27, 2011I have an XML which contains a field of the type:
<mytext><![CDATA[ My name is <color value="FF0000">Bill</color>. ]]></mytext>
I wonder if there is a simple methodology (using E4X methods) in order to print the inner text: "My name is Bill." in a text area and having the word "Bill" colored i.e. red.
The generalized situation is, if i can print the inner text and use XML tags to specify formatting attributes of the text per word.
Do E4X supports this type of parsing, or do I have to program my own "little" parser for this situation?

Jul 4, 2009I'm building this flash site for a friend and he wants to be able to edit the contents and maintain the site by himself later on. So naturally, I used a dynamic text field that uses URLloader to link to an external html, dandy. Problem is, my friend wants to use dreamweaver to edit the contents of html (or even just a word document exported as html) and it's just driving him nuts because the text look nothing like that way it did in DW when it's loaded into the dynamic text field (extra spacing and line break popping up randomly everywhere). Is there an alternative solution other then telling him to just edit it in notepad? What if I switch over to XML?
