Php :: Cleaning Up HTML Formatted Content For Display Within Flash?
Feb 20, 2012
I want to display HTML formatted content from various sources inside a Flash Flex application. Flash supports HTML formatting in its text fields, however it is very limited compared to a web browser. Are there any scripts out there that will convert common HTML formatted text into a format that Flash can handle? My particular use cases are:Displaying HTML formatted emails inside FlashDisplaying RTF files inside Flash (after running an RTF2HTML conversion on the server)Displaying random HTML content copied and pasted from other sources into Flash

I'm using the techniques discussed in this thread on ActionScript.org to load formatted HTML text into flash. I also want to scroll said text, and for that purpose I'd like to use Flashscaper's scrollbar. I've run into a bit of a snag, however.
The text displays fine. However, the scrollbar does not appear when initiated and the mask (a red rectangle) can be seen on the right side of the content area; not the entire thing, just a red area about 5-10 pixels wide. The text can be scrolled using the mouse wheel, so the scrollbar functionality is intact. I think this has something to do with the transition within the ContentText function, but when I comment that out, the text doesn't display at all, nor does the scrollbar. Listed below are the three components to this project.
ContentText.as:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code].....
As an update, I did get this sort of working by adding a button that brings in the scrollbar as a separate function. This works after the text's transition has completed. Perhaps I can simply tie the scrollbar function to a timer that fires when the text begins to load?

I'm trying to set up a html formatted xml document that is called into flash. I'll give you my code so you can see what I have done. Each slide represents a different content page - each will be called from a corresponding swf movie.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<slides>
<slide>
<title>Introduction </title>
[code]...
The content is loading into the flash movie, but I can't figure out how to get words bold .. I tried some CDATA as you can see but all that displays in the flash movie is <b>BOLD</b> and the rest of the content after it is just gone ...I need to be able to place the html text straight into the xml file and have it display the formatted text in the flash movie .. no clue how to achieve this .. I'm using Flash MX.

I have XML files formatted with XSL. They look great on IE.
Now how do I do the same with Flex (not AIR)? I would like to use something like TextArea and not data grid.

I know that I can use CSS styles with HTML-formatted text in Actionscript. I have TextField, and there is HTML-text such as b and p tags. I want to change styles of those elements. I know a lot of CSS, but I don't know how to use it with Actionscript 3 and Flash. Here's my code.

How I can get this html formatted text to display correctly in the body of an email, when I am using mailto:? I am trying to avoid using a PHP aggregate, so I can use the mailto: and have it open the users email program directly. Here is what my code looks like, with the style of string that my client would like to use to populate the body of the email .
Code:
public function handleEmailClick(e) { ......
var emailVar = "mailto:"+""+"?subject="+emailSubject+"&body="+big String;
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(emailVar);
navigateToURL(request);
}

I have pre-formatted HTML in a textfile. Let me know if any of this might already be an error-source- I am currently too tired to try out alternatives: The textfile looks something like this:
HTML Code:
<p><img src='biathlon' vspace='2' hspace='4' width='40' height='40'></img>Alot of text</p>
<p><br></p>
<p><img src='biathlon' vspace='2' hspace='4' width='40' height='40'></img>Even MORE Text</p>
<p><br></p>
It's saved as a ".txt"-file... I didn't think that would really make a difference? What I want to do is load the file and dump it directly to an HTML-enabled textfield, using something like
Code:
if (loaded) {
TickerData_txt.htmlText = this;
}
in the function connected to the "onLoad".
If I use "LoadVars" as a handler to load the file, it gives me the raw data, something like "%3Cp%3E%3Cimg%20src=%27biathlon%27%20vspace%3D%27 2%27..." (you get the idea)... If I use an XML handler, it only gives me the first entry when I use "this" to send the file's content to the htmlText-field... probably because each entry in the file is enclosed by "<p>"-tags and the XML-handler considers the file to be over once the first closing "</p>" occurs?
What would need to be added to the file to make it load it all? Or what would I need to change about the function to make sure it sends the whole content of the file? When I use "trace" on the "this" that is loaded, it actually *does* give back only what it also sends to the textfield, even though the text-file contains several rows of that stuff.

I want to make an XML document from an HTML one so I can use the XML parsing tools. My problem is that my HTML is not guaranteed to be XHTML nor valid. How can I bypass the exceptions? In this string <p> is not terminated, nor is <br> nor <meta>.
var poorHtml:String = "<html><meta content="stuff" name="description"><p>Hello<br></html>";
var html:XML = new XML(poorHtml);
TypeError: Error #1085: The element type "meta" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</meta>".

loadVariablesNum("testimonials.txt", 0);
gotoAndPlay("load");
This code works perfect when testing, and it works perfect viewing the SWF, but when you view the HTML file with the SWF embedded, it doesn't display the text file content.

I'm trying in vain to store and retrieve HTML formatted text in a XML node.I know it has to be held in CDATA brackets, otherwise the XML is invalid, but... this means that Flash doesn't parse the data as HTML, rather it just displays it as the raw text.

Is there any way to display flash objects which are outside the display area when flash is embeded in HTML
The reason i ask is my current project has a rotating + enlarging effect which is largely dynamic so sometimes an object may clip the edge of the stage areathis looks messy but i dont want to increase the stage area to cover the largest possible area any object could enter because most of the time the objects are at the center and small so i would end up with a lot of white space

I'm developing a Flash application which is communicating with Javascript to allow more features such as custom html input etc., by placing an absolute positioned div on top of the flash application and controlling it's position etc. with Flash & Javascript.
Because these html elements have to appear above the flash content, I figured the following basic css would be enough to do the trick:
#flashContent {
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
[Code].....
So, the htmlContent has a higher z-index than the flash content and thus it should be shown above it. Unfortunately, this only seems to work when you set the Flash object's "wmode" parameter to "transparent".
The problem with this setting is that it's seriousely decreasing the application's framerate to an unacceptable amount.
For static content this does not seem to be a problem, however for my application there's all kinds of elements that you can drag around which have to be moved real-time (while moving the mouse).
So, how do I enable html content on top of flash content without using the "transparent" wmode parameter or how do I optimize framerate when using the "transparent" wmode parameter?

Long story short, I'm developing a theme template for a blog that enables you to view the posts in blocks. The main part of the post is displayed at first, then the secondary content is displayed over that when you hover over the post block. Everything works fine on a Mac Versions of all major browsers, but start browsing on a PC, and all hell breaks loose when you start trying to display content over Flash Video embeds. The flash element remains visible over the content. It's completely unusable.
From a PC, you can view an example of the problem here: [URL] I'm almost certain this is a bug in the Flash Plugin for Windows, but I was wondering if anyone else had come across this problem before, and if there were any solutions.

ow do you display HTML formatted text in a Spark custom item renderer (Actionscript)?
Sample Code:

I am using a dynamic text field to show html formatted text from .txt files. I have set the html property both in the properties panel and in AS, and it mostly works. All html formatting show up just fine, except for when "&" is used. Flash CS3 documentation indicates that & is supported, so.? All text after the & does not appear: the only text loaded is that that comes before it. I am using CS3, AS2, publishing in Flash Player 9. Sorry if this problem has been addressed elsewhere, but I've had no luck with my searches.

Currently, the facebook plugin is displayed briefly before the flash starts loading then it disappears after the page is loaded. What do I need to do for the plugin to display on the webpage in order to look like it is part of the flash site?[url]...
The green background of the facebook plugin and position is just temp for testing purposes until I can get this page to display properly.
