Jan 12, 2009
i have an xml file .... i have imported it into flash mx 2004, tutorial i have even applied css properties to it ( i know thats prop easy for most of you guys but im happy ) my question is this ... i would like to rotate messages on some kind of timer ... ie xml file - ( im guessing at this point cos its worked so far ... )
<message>
<caption1>this is caption 1</caption1>
<caption2>this is caption 2</caption2>
<caption3>this is caption 3</caption3>
</message>
flash action script ... what i would like to achieve... the flash file to import the xml file into a dynamic text box which i have done, but at the moment it is showing all the captions in one go .. i would like to show.. caption1 .... wait X amount of time ( a variable in seconds ? - how would i do that ? ) a motion tween to get rid of the message ( not sure what yet but i understand the basic principles so will experiment and be creative ) caption2 .... etc.

I recently began a project and soon felt that it would be useful for me to have my users put a code into a TLF text field, such as 0123456. The user then clicks a button and each character of the text field are put into several variables.
For example:
Code:
variable1_var = "first character in text field"
variable2_var = "second character in text field"
/* This would be repeated up to variable7_var */
variable1_var would equal 0 and variable2_var would equal 1, so on and so forth.

I've got some dynamic text (from coldfusion) coming in to my flash movie and I need to turn what's coming in into a bulleted list. right now it's a list of features delimited by commas like this: Anodized aluminum deck construction, anodized aluminum t-rail, extra heavy vinyl, Nextwave electrical system, etc., etc. Is this possible with actionscript?

Is it possible to call different data from a same text file? In the tutorial about the dynamically loaded text, the example was "kirupatext=" and the text was loaded from after that in the txt file. Is it possible to make it stop loading after a certain point?
For example,
" kirupatext=
Hello There!
I am an example of text that has been loaded from a separate location on kirupa's server. Best of all, notice that you can scroll the contents of the text up and down by clicking on the arrows. This is a nice, useful feature that you can use on your site."
How can I make it load only up to "Best of all"? Is it possible to break up the text into 2 parts so that they are loaded by different text boxes? i tried adding another marker like "kirupatext2=" at another point, but it just gets loaded along with the first "kirupatext=".

My HTML tags are not working in a dynamic text box. Im guessing it is cause of the scrolling and maybe it dosn't see <br> so it dosn't allow them. This is the code i am using below.
TextField.prototype.maxviewable = function(){
if(this.maxscroll>1) return this.bottomScroll;
var b = (this.html) ? this.bottomScroll-1 : this.bottomScroll;
if (!this.length) this.text = ">>";

I made a scrollbar in action script §3 all from scratch and loaded an external text file edited in text Wrangler to display in the field, and sudden all my HTMl tags are not responding though added htmText to it. Well, the only tag responding is the link tag, the rest no, like bold, or italic or colors.

I have managed to get rid of unwanted line breaks and returns in the RSS text I am bringing in to populate my dynamic text fields. The Dynamic Text fields are set up not to render text as html, are multiline and have the fonts embedded. I keep seeing things like, <p style=""> at the beginning of the story or <THI.TO> in the middle of the story. Is there any way of deleting anything that appears as <anything> and replace with a space? Here is the code I am currently using to eliminate the line breaks. Also is there any way of turning hyphenation on?

We have invalid characters in text fields ie: <p> tags, when loading data from a local object (even though the text field is set to render as HTML) ?
Questions:
1) has anyone encountered this before?
2) know of a work around?
3) find/replace script we can run through the local object to replace the any <p> tags arising?

I am loading some text into a dynamic text field from an external text file using the methods described on kirupa's tutorials. I want to be able to bold some text, and make some other text links, using html...
I thought it might work if I just added the html tags to the text file, and the chose to render the dynamic text field as html..but the tags don't do anything, and are still read in as normal text.

there is a menu, and when i press a btn, it attaches a movieclip with some textfield in there. the text reads the xml tags, but doens show the css styles.i got this so far:
[AS]
//attach text holder
var Textos:MovieClip = RaizMC.attachMovie("holder Textos", "conteudos_mc", RaizMC.getNextHighestDepth())
//init TextArea
Textos.texto_txt.html = true;

Using an FLV playback component, I am reading subtitles into a dynamic text box. I'm essentially using the same XML code seen here:URL]..Only problem is, the style tags aren't working for me. They do nothing, and the font style options selected on the stage in the FLA seem to override any style tags.
I'm wondering - does the text box need to be created in Action Script (as opposed to on the stage)? [FYI, I just tried this, this did not seem to work either]. What else could it be?
(Note that I can achieve styling through using CDATA tags, which makes matters more confusing to me. I'd prefer to use the timed text ones if they can work, as they are a little better for readability).

I'm loading dynamic text from a textfile with some HTML tags in it. When I load it up, everything comes up fine except for the fact that any <a> tags remain active until the next <a> tag comes up. So there will be a whole block of text with a hand cursor that links to the previous <a> tag.

Issue: dynamic textfield created at runtime with html text doesn't display bold and italics.
Having the Font symbol in my library with the linkage name "Avenir" :

The textfield totally ignores the bold html tag. The right font is displayed but the html tags are ignored. So if I want one text field to be able to dynamically display bold and italics (html text) using a Font Face in my library...how do I do it? What am I missing?

I have an input box with a variable name. When the user enters some text and presses a button that variable is sent to a php file using the GET method. Then the info is put into a database. When I checked my database, I found that a load of styling html tags has been included. I want for my input text box to have styled text, but I don't want that styling /html tags to be sent to the php file. I know I could use strip_tags in php to get rid of the html tags, but surely there's a way of not sending the tags at all, just the text content of my variable?

I am browsing for a solution for about 2 hours, but I did not find anything that would help. I have a dynamic text field, and I would like to format it, (to highlight the first 2 words in red, and the rest in italics). Usually I load external .txt files and I use HTML tags for formatting the text inside. But this time I have to do it internally.

I'm using HTML text formatting with a Textfield. At the moment the <u> underline tag works fine but the <b> bold tags don't work or the italics tag doesn't work either. I read somewhere that a font with bold and italics needs to be "available". I'm just using a textfield with Arial as the font - which is embedded.
