Php :: Dynamically Populating Textfields In Flashbuilder?
Jul 13, 2010
I'm trying to wrap my brain around getting data into my project in a way that I can use.. I want to use MySQL & PHP my Flashbuilder app and I'm not populating a datagrid so......
For simplicities sake, In my database table I have 3 columns "ID, Title & Content". I want to use this to populate the different states in my flashbuilder project.
Normally in a web page I could say in the sql statement "SELECT * FROM table WHERE ID = 1" to get the first row of info and I could put my Title and Content where I want them on my page I can change the query to "SELECT * FROM table WHERE ID = 2" to populate page 2 to get it's title and content.
In flashbuilder it all on the same page and I'm not understanding how to populate a singular text field for a title or content area with a single field from the database.

That's the correct syntax for this? I want to be able to dynamically write to several textfields that exist on the stage but have not been dynamically placed there.

I am currently trying to write a simple class that handles form validation with a backend script, how the backend script works is that you POST a variable type and it's value and an XML is returned with any errors. The problem is, I want to be able to dynamically generate the variable names so that they don't have to be hard coded into the class. Is this possible?for example:instead of
ActionScript Code:
var urlVariables:UrlVariables = new UrlVariables();
urlVariables.first_name = "foo";

been working in Flash using AS2 and loading external XML data into the movie. I am able to load the data into in Flash and parse it, but I haven't been able to figure out how to load the names of buttons from separate nod values into a textfield.Unfortunately, I dont feel I know AS3 well enough and am a little bit rusty on my AS2.I created a movie clip which holds the dynamic textfield and placed 30 instances on the stage. Each instance is successively named "cityName[i]" where i is a number from 1-30. I've tried setting the instances as both buttons and movie clips. I also tried setting both the .text and.htmlText attributes, but neither works. Ive embedded the fonts on the dynamic text field. Ive also tried changing the field to input instead of dynamic but that doesnïwork either. Ive been tracing things to try to debug, but havenï found the issue yet.Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
//load XML data
var citiesData:XML = new XML();

I'm interested to create textFields dynamically, but I don't know how to make this code working, can someone please help me to understand what do I have to put in my code at line 4 in the brackets ?? in order it to work.btw: if the variable "losingdate" in my code is achieved from asp file, is this line: this.New1.text = losingdate; is a valid thing to do ??
for(i=1; i < 5; i++) {
this.createTextField("New" + i, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0 , 0, 100, 20);
this.New1.border = true;
this.(New+i).text = losingdate;

I need to create a horizontal menu with adding textfields with different widths dynamically on x axis. I have been doing this manually arranging the textfields on stage and get the x co-ordinate. I would really like to be able to do this with scripts, so in the future if I need to add/delete/change the numbers and positions, I can do it easily by just changing the scripts, But my maths knowledge is limited.

a quick explanation of what I'm at... I'm working on something at the moment, basically what I have is an external textfile which contains several variables; I am loading these variables into flash using loadVariables().one of these variables invokes the script to create several buttons on the stage using for() and attachMovie(), and add onRelease() actions for each. when each button is clicked, a new textfield for that button is created on the stage.
the other loaded variables contain appropriately named html-formatted strings of text, which are then loaded into their respective, newly created textFields. pretty traightforward, and everything's working perfectly, the tags are being rendered etc. bold text is turning up bold and links are working correctly.but, I know nothing about CSS and flash! here's what I'm wondering... although my text is being rendered properly, I currently have no control over the style of my text, so it is rendering as black, times new roman etc. how can I apply CSS styles in order to control font size, type, colour etc.?does this entail attaching an external stylesheet, or can CSS styles be defined within the movie?here is my code at the moment:
PHP Code:
//
create box for textFieldfor loadingMsg_root.createTextField("loadingMsg", 20, 10,

in AS3, How can I dynamically create TextFields and still be able to access them individually?for example, a for/next loop creates 3 textFields:
for (var num:Number = 0; num<3; num++){
var txtFld:TextField = new TextField;
txtFld.text = 'This is the original text';
this.addChild(txtFld);
}
now say later on, I want to change the text of one of the textfields:
txtFld.text = 'This is the new Text';
The problem is, in the variable list, there is only one txtFld, the last one created. How can I access the other textFields?

I'm currently creating an app which allows users to select blocks of text from a List and dynamically create a TextField on the stage.I'm calculating the height of the TextField and positioning the next TextField beneath.I'm also recording the total heights of the TextFields so that I know when the total height exceeds the available height, at which point I move the x position and reset to y position to zero.When the next TextField will exceed the available height I want to split it into two, so I'm calculating the remaining height, making the TextField.height into the remaining height.My problem arrives when I try to get the position of the last visible line.If I have the TextFieldAutoSize as LEFT, then I can dynamically generate the heights of the TextFields.For the final TextField in the column I need to set TextFieldAutoSize to NONE so I can change the height of the TextField. i.e. I don't want it to autosize.However, bottomScrollV returns the total number of lines, not the last visible line.I can create the required behaviour in a separate doc but when I copy the code into the loop it fails.

I have made some changes to kirupa's thumbnail gallery, so instead of loading thumbnails into the scroller, I'd like it to load TextInput from a Node in the XML.
what I've come up with so far (simplified):
Code:
function numbering_fn(k) {
numbers_mc.createTextField("t"+k, numbers_mc.getNextHighestDepth(),20*k, 0,10,10);
numbers_mc.t[k].text = numbering[k] ;
[Code]....
in my understanding, since the loadXML function is still looping, it should create an empty TextField and then assign a .text Value to it.
Aparently it creates the required number of empty TextFields, but the "numbers_mc.t[k].text = "whatever Text";" -bite doesn't do the trick...

I have a few dynamic generated buttons, and I need on their action to change values in some dynamic generated textfields. The part of the code we're interested is this:
Code:
nr_rinduri = 20; // number caming from somewhere else
this["mc"+j].onRelease = function() {
num = Number(this._name.substring(2))+1;
nrInceput = (num-1)*nr_rinduri;
trace("NR inceput=" + nrInceput);
[Code] .....
So... : if I put codice0.text = ..., codice1.text = .... it's working, but when I am trying to do a this["codice"+contor].text = .... it's not working.... Is this because we are inside another this[] ... the one for the button and when I am referring to this["codice"+contor] the flash see that I want to do something at the button and not at the textfield...

I have made a UI control which contains a bunch of TextFields representing the members of an Array. I draw these un a list like in a combo box's drop down. Currently I hard code the height of the TextFields, iterate through the Array and position the TextFields by adding the hard coded height each time. Simple enough.
But now I would like to put the control in another place where I must use smaller text. So I would like to make the thing general so I can resuse it whenever I want, simply by applying a new TextFormat. My problem is that I want to still be able to position the TextFields accurately regardless of the font size used in the TextFormat. I have tried just creating the TextField, applying the TextFormat, setting the text, and then trying to read the TextField's height, but alas this does not work.
what the best way is to find each TextField's height so that I can build my list?

What im looking to do is dynamically create TextFields based on my array.length. So if I have 3 strings in my array then 3 TextFields with the array text needs to be created.
I've managed to actually create TextFields based on the array.length - however afterwards I dont know how to reference them individually, to lets say re-position x, y for array[1]. I've tried saving the Textfields in another array by .push method, but can't seem to reference them correctly.
//Create textfields based on data in Array - in this case 3 textfields
var textArray:Array = new Array('First TextField','TextField Two','Anything, really');
//Array to .push "save" created textfields

i have 2 questions / problems with loading external SWF's. (Im developing in FlashBuilder btw)first, i load the swf's binary with an URLLoader, and later on i 'duplicate' them using a Loader.loadBytes.This way i can load an swf once, and display it multiple times.Every time i 'duplicate' those SWF's, flashbuilder traces [SWF] <<PATH>> xx.xx.xx bytes after decompression.Usually, this traces the path of the loaded SWF, I.E. background.swf. But now i get the path of my main SWF, called Main.swf (how suprising.is this correct? or what causes it to trace Main.swf instead of the actual loaded SWF?Besides this 'issue', sometimes i get a [Unload SWF] after i do a Loader.loadBytes. then my new copy of the SWF isn't made. I get no errors NOR any events from the loader.loadBytes.

When I use FlashBuilder to connect to a remote Java object using BlazeDS, FlashBuilder automatically creates a local valueObject matching the object in the remote server.
However, the package name of the remote object gets lost in translation.
Hence if I have two remote Java objects com.foo.A and com.bar.A, I won't be able to distinguish between them in Flex. So I end up having to name my remote classes com.foo.AFoo, com.bar.ABar.

It's growing pains time again. Some of our stuff requires FlashBuilder 4 and some still requires FlexBuilder 3. Both are installed OK, and no projects use both IDEs. The trouble is, when I go back to work on a FlexBuilder 3 project it takes freakin' forever to build and I get weird errors like these: This doesn't seem to cause any identifiable problems except to throw up a modal dialog at various points in the build process, forcing user interaction. But I do notice that memory fills up fast in FB3 and generally FB3 starts behaving strangely and ultimately quits once it gets up over 700MB.
This is only a temporary bridge situation until we get all projects into FB4, but "temporary" could mean weeks if not months. Does anyone have any advice for how to get through this bridge period? Is there anything I can do to make these two IDEs work and play well together? Failing that, does anyone know what "java.lang.String" is the "reason" for the problem? Does Eclipse have a resource bundle somewhere that is getting corrupted when i go back and forth between the two?

I am trying to use adobe flash builder 4 with a php service.I had it set up an older macbook running leopard, but just tried to set it up on my new laptop running snow leopard.I did all the same steps.. set the Flex Server to be PHP, set the web root and url.Then I go to Data->Connect To PHP and point it to a php file I have in my web root. It says it needs to install Zend, and claims it does so successfully, but then when I try to continue, I get an error.I don't understand.. this same setup works on my older laptop.
(Yes, I checked the amf.production was false)
Unable to retrieve operations and entities from the file
Make sure that Zend Framework is installed correctly and the parameter "amf.production" is not set to true in the amf_config.ini file located in the project output folder.code]....
