AS2 .. Adding Line Breaks In Dynamic Text
Hey there.

I've been poking around for an answer and I found some help here and on other forums, but the answers I found are not helping.

I have an app that loads random quotes from an external text file. The file liiks like this:

quote1=blah blah blah
&quote2= blah blah blah
&quote3= blah blah blah

All the way to 25 quotes total. I want to add line breaks in the text. Some answeres said insert
or
in the text like so:

&quote4=This is a quote
from some dude (or
)

Also, I read that if you turn "render text as HTML" on, you could use <br> for line breaks.

I have tried all three options and all just display the extrea characters in my dynamic text when it pulls a quote.

Is there something I am missing? Is there an easier way to go about this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Line Breaks In Dynamic Text
I'm using a dynamic text box to give information about items that the user selects. Is there a way to insert a line break (carriage return) in Actionscript.

Example:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_root.imgText1.text="This is where I put the descriptive text for image 1. Some desciptions are rather lengthy and maybe I would like to insert a line break in this area of code... like maybe right here. The only problem is I don't know if such a thing can be done, or if it can, how to do it."

Line Breaks In Dynamic Text?
I have some text that goes into a dynamic text box and I would like to
break it. I would like to break it after the first sentence. I thought
the <br> might do it, but it seems not like this?

bodyCopy.errorText.text = "Username and password do not match.<br>Please
re-enter your username and password.";


Thank you!

Line Breaks In Dynamic Text Objects
All,

Forgive me this trivial question, but is there an easy way to insert a line break in a dynamic text field without using the HTML property?

I know you can set the text field's HTML property to true, which would allow you to use <br> tags, but that requires that you use a device font, and I would rather use an embedded, anti-aliased font.

In vb, you can put a "vbcrlf" in the middle of a text string to create the effect I'm looking for. Is there a similar trick in Actionscript?

Of course, you could also use two text fields, but my problem is that sometimes the field should include a line break or two, and sometimes it should not.

Many, many thanks in advance for your help and advice!

Cheers

Creating Line Breaks With Dynamic Text Boxes Using HTML?
I have an array with a series of informational text lines. I would like to place them in a status dynamic text box listing which ones have been processed. To do this I need to make a dynamic text box with line breaks after each item in an array. Here is my script so far:

imageClips = new Array();
imageClips = ["WindowsInit.jpg","CTRLA.jpg"];


I then have a dynamic text box with html enabled called:
Status

In my action script I have entered the following code:

Status.text = "<br>" + 1imageClips[0] + "</br>" + "<br>" + imageClips[1] + "</br>";

I want the first line to read "WindowsInit.jpg" in the list, and then break to the next line reading "CTRLA.jpg"

Whenever I run the script it does not work. Can someone tell me how to properly insert line breaks into dynamic text boxes using arrays of text with a line break?

Thanks,
Sam

Does anyone know if there is anyway to create line breaks in a text field. I have a large paragraph of text that I am inputting through actionscript. I don't want it to scroll along until the end of the text box, but would like to instruct it where to put the line breaks. Please don't tell me I have to put a seperate text box for each line!

I'm using MX Educational (Actionscript 1.0)

:: ActionScript Text Animation -- Line Breaks?
I'm using the text effect I found in
ActionScript Text Animation , and the script works great.

My question is, is it possible to have line breaks? I tried adding spaces to end a line, but you'd have to wait for the script to read through the added spaces before the next line begins.

Thanks!

Extra Line Breaks In Text Loaded From XML
Hello all,
So I am loading some text from an XML file. It is a couple of lines, and it loads fine. But, the line breaks show up as more than one break. Actually, it seems like Flash sees it as one large line break or something. For example ...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<myData>
First Line
Second Line
Third Line
</myData>

... would show up as what looks like triple spaced lines. I was messing around with the ignore white space, but in AS3 that is supposed to be off by default I think. Plus I am not sure that even applys to what I am doing. Ideas?

Line Breaks In Dynamically Loaded Text
Can any one help? I'm new to AS3, shakey at AS2 and in over my head. I have an external XML file I want to load elements of into a dynamic text field and in turn use the text listing as buttons to launch image and other XML files. I get the XML to load but either I get the first element, or all the elements in one line. How do I iterate through the list appending each element to the list? The sample below puts "Air Cleaner" in the text field. The child of "catpage" is the element I want to list.

//xml sample
<catagory>
<catsect>
<page>001</page>
<sorpage>012</sorpage>
<catpage>Air Cleaner</catpage>
</catsect>
<catsect>
<page>003</page>
<sorpage>014</sorpage>
<catpage>Brake Master Cylinder</catpage>
</catsect>
<catsect>
<page>007</page>
<sorpage>/data/xml/018.xml</sorpage>
<catpage>Clutch</catpage>
</catsect>
</catagory>


//AS3 Sample
var xmlPath:String = "data/xml/";
var priceListXML:XML;
var menuWords:String = "data/xml/menutest.xml";
var xmlFile:String = "014.XML";
var fileType:String = ".jpg";
var ltCatPage:Number;
var rtCatPage:Number;
var zoomImg:Number;

//Menu loader -- must include menu text and images
var xmlMenuLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlMenuData:XMLList = new XMLList();
xmlMenuLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadMenuXML);
xmlMenuLoader.load(new URLRequest(menuWords));
function loadMenuXML(e:Event):void {
xmlMenuData = new XMLList(e.target.data);
buildMenu(xmlMenuData);
}
function buildMenu(catagory:XMLList):void {
var menuText:XMLList = xmlMenuData;

Line Breaks Eats Away Parts Of The Input Text
I'm using some formmail script I found and it seemed to be working fine until recently I realized that it had been eating parts of the longer messages especially if there were line breaks. I thought setting a higher value for the multiline textfield's maximum characters will help, but it didn't.

I have this code in the frame where the form is.


Code:
stop();
_root.image.titlebar.gotoAndStop(2);
setProperty("_root.image.caption", _visible, "0");
scrollbar.setScrollContent("Message");
userName="";
userEmail="";
Message="";
errorMSG="";
ToName = "Z Architects";
ToEmail = "name@mail.com";
sendBtn.onRelease = function() {
if (!userEmail.length || userEmail.indexOf("@") == -1 || userEmail.indexOf(".") == -1) {
errorMSG = "Please enter a valid E-mail address";
} else if (!userName.length) {
errorMSG = "Please Enter your name before Sending";
} else if (!Message.length) {
errorMSG = "Please provide some feedback";
} else {
errorMSG = "Your email is now being sent please wait.";
loadVariablesNum("MailPHP.php", "0", "POST");
//gotoAndPlay("thankyou");
}
};


and then in the MailPHP.php


Code:

<?

$ToSubject = "Feedback to Z Architects";

$EmailBody = "Name: $userName
Email: $userEmail

Message:
$Message
";

$EmailFooter="
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This message was sent by: $userName from $REMOTE_ADDR via the Flash website";
$Message = $EmailBody.$EmailFooter;

if(mail($ToName." <".$ToEmail.">",$ToSubject, $Message, "From: ".$userName." <".$userEmail.">"))
{
Print "_root.contactPanel.errorMSG=Your message was successfully sent.";
}
else
{
Print "_root.contactPanel.errorMSG=Error sending your message.";
}


?>

Preserving Line-breaks When Copying Text To The Clipboard
I have a simple little program that i need to copy the text from this output box into the clipboard. I know about using System.setClipboard(text); but it's not preserving the linebreaks, or the "
". I'm filling this textbox from an array basically, so its like this:
Code:
for(i=0;i<array_length;i++){
output.text+=items[i]+"

Line Breaks Ignored When Using HTML Text CSS And Embedded Fonts
Anyone come accross this.
When using a StyleSheet with html text in a dynamic textfield with embedded fonts line breaks are ignored. It is as if TextField.condenseWhite is being set to true. Essentially the <p> tags are being treated as a <br/> tag.

If I dont embed fonts it works fine. Another weird thing is if i add an empty paragraph <p></p> between the first two paragraphs it makes any subsequent paragraph behave correctly. e.g.

<p>first paragraph text here</p>
<p>second paragraph text here</p>
<p>third paragraph text here</p>

displays as if there are <br/> between each one.

But

<p>first paragraph text here</p>
<p></p>
<p>second paragraph text here</p>
<p>third paragraph text here</p>

behaves correctly even for the third paragraph.

Here is the code i am working with (using XML as i am dynamically populating the textfield from XML)

any help much appreciated

Flash Putting Too Many Line-breaks In Dynamically-loaded Text...
Here's how it goes:
- User types into multiline textbox in HTML form
- Text gets inserted into MySQL db
- Text is retrieved via PHP and passed to Flash
- Flash displays it in a textbox


The thing is, there are always too many line-breaks. For example, where the user has typed one line-break, Flash inserts 2 or 3. So basically, there are huge spaces between lines/paragraphs.

When I print the text to HTML file via PHP, it looks fine.

Is there a step I'm missing?

Dynamic Textbox _y Per Dynamic Line Breaks
I would like to feed variable character lengthed text data to text boxes in my dynamically placed buttons (touch screen kiosk). In my movies i am reading from either xml or db via FSP. I want the text in the text boxes (which label the buttons) to aways be centered in the button graphic, no matter how many lines. I imagine i would set up a conditional and set the _y of the text field per the amount of new line breaks that were dymically created by means of which are still a mystery to me..

Is there a way to achive this without manually adding "
" or whatever your prefered linebreaker is? I've done very similar things, but i've aways had to manually build and associate an array in flash to assure appropriate line breaking. Now i'm dealing with many hundreds of buttons and existing data (such as the strings i would like to label the buttons with)

this is one of, if not the last hurtle for me as far as how dynamic i want my projects to be...! please help!

btw, im using FlashMX

Getting Rid Of Extra Invisble Characters Which Create Double Line Breaks In Text
Hi

These characters are created in Notepad when you hit 'Return', making a single line break a double line break when the txt is imported into the swf and viewed off line (online, there actually is no problem, but I'm making a CD presentation).

Does anyone know a method to get rid of these unseen, unwanted characters?

(BTW, %0A at the end of the line does not solve the problem )

External Text Files In Flash: Getting The Line Breaks To Display Properly (HELP)
Jackass linebreaks!
nightmare. does anyone know of a way to get Flash to read the line breaks in Windows text files as single line breaks, and not double line breaks? I know about Flash thinking that "
" is a double line break, so I need to figure out a way to get around that using the code I have:


Code:


var XMLfile = "article_setup.xml";
importXML = new XML();
importXML.varTarget = this;
importXML.ignoreWhite = true;
importXML.onLoad = function (success)
{
if (success)
{

var vt = this.varTarget;
var root = this.firstChild;
vt.articleObj = new Object();
allArticles = root.childNodes;
for(var i=0; i<allArticles.length; i++)
{
article = allArticles[i].childNodes;
vt.articleObj["article" + i] = new Object();
vt.articleObj["article" + i].articleName = article[0].firstChild;
vt.articleObj["article" + i].articlePath = article[1].firstChild;
}
var i;
for (i=0; i<allArticles.length; i++)
{
listBox.addItem(vt.articleObj["article" + i].articleName);
}
select.onPress = function()
{
var myVariable = new LoadVars();
myVariable.onLoad = function(success)
{
if (success)
{
addText(this.article);
}
else trace("Error loading content.");
}
myVariable.load(vt.articleObj["article" + listBox.getSelectedIndex()].articlePath);
}
}
else
{
trace("ERROR PARSING XML");
}
};

function addText(textContent)
{
pbox.htmlText = textContent;
}

importXML.load(XMLfile);

Strange Breaks In Dynamic Text
I've loaded my external text into my mC, and can access it with no problem. However, I'm getting very strange line breaks that aren't indicated anywhere in my original text file. It's a single and continuous sentence all on one line. Sometimes the break is at the end of the dynamic text field, like it's supposed to be, but other times it breaks in the middle of a line without any sort of apparent regard for punctuation or anything, so I don't THINK that's it (though it could be, I suppose).

I thought that my Word Wrap option in Notepad might POSSIBLY be messing it up, so I turned that off, but it didn't change anything.

Any ideas?

[CS3] Prevent Word Breaks In Dynamic Text Box
I am working with arabic text that is being pulled in from xml into dynamically created text boxes, the only issue is:

when the text is wrapped to the next line, words are being "split" or "broken" in two, making no sense to the reader. is there a way to test if a word is being broken and then force the whole word to the next line?

I have messed with searching for spaces and amount of characters on a line, but the results have been multiple breaks happening : ie text looking like this:

hello how are
you
doing?

any thoughts on this?

[F8] Line Breaks
Hello! This is my first ever post, and I have to say I am a total flash newbie. I would have posted this in the newbie section but I feel that it may be better answered by a 'coder'. I think!

I've built a website, i've kind of somehow got it to work (I'm not a website developer at all really, just a guy who like fiddling around and making things!)

here is the site: www.audio-freaks.com

I have two problems/questions.

1) In the contact page, I have created a way to auto-populate an email. It works ok & gets the job done. BUT when I tried it on a friends computer, it no longer worked right - it didn't recognise the line breaks. I have since discovered that on 'outlook' it works fine, and on 'outlook express' or mac 'mail' it has no line breaks. Please could somebody tell me a way to make it work regardless of system/email client. Basically the email body contains a string that contains line break symbols (i've tried

etc )

2) I've used the scrollplane component to make my scroll zones. It works fine, but looks really ugly! I've tried to get my head round skinning but just can't seem to get it to work. Could somebody please help me change the colour of those dull grey bars? Doesn't need to be flashy, just to darken them & make them more contrasty would be fine.

If anybody could help me with any of these I would be very grateful.

thanks
Dale

Line Breaks With What? Really
Can I use
or in the middle of a piece of Actionscripting like this:

mailVars.messageb = unescape("Dear " + name_txt.text + "," +

"Thank you for showing an interest in...");

If not, what is a good substitute?

Line Breaks
I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to count the number of line breaks so that if that number is greater than the number of lines a dynamic text field will display a scroll next and previous navigation will appear. Any help would be appreciated. I searched through the forums but didn't have any luck finding what I was looking for.

Line Breaks?
The goal = to have different formatted text all in the same text field.

I am inserting text into seperate columns in a XLS Excel spreadsheet. There are 5 columns and each column will have a different formatting to it (which will be applied with CSS later). I turn the XLS into XML with a converter. I then import the XML into flash. I assign each text (from each column) to it's own variable call (so I have 5 variables for each type of formatting).

I want each of the five text types to be it's own paragraph in one final text field in flash. I am attempting to add line breaks using the HTML tag <BR>. I have told the text box on stage to render text as HTML. Here is the Code I have written (see specifically the blue):

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------<initialize XML>--------------------------------------------------------------------------\
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------</initialize XML>-------------------------------------------------------------------------\
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------<call XML>---------------------------------------------------------------------------\
myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {

var BOLD12PT = myXML.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].attributes.BOLD12PT;
var NORM10PT = myXML.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].attributes.NORM10PT;
var BOLD12PTUNDERLINE = myXML.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].attributes.BOLD12PT1;
var RED10PT = myXML.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].attributes.RED10PT;
var ITALICIZED10PT = myXML.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].attributes.ITALICIZED10PT;

loadTxt = function() {
myTextField.text = BOLD12PT + "<BR>" + NORM10PT + "<BR>" + BOLD12PTUNDERLINE + "<BR>" + RED10PT + "<BR>" + ITALICIZED10PT;
}
loadTxt();
} else {
myTextField.text = "Error";
}
}
myXML.load("CSS_Testing.xml"); //XML Location
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------</call XML>--------------------------------------------------------------------------\
stop;

This is the output I get when I execute the SWF:

This text should be bold 12 pt<BR>This text should be default 10 pt.<BR>This text should be 12pt bold and underlined<BR>This text should be default red 10 pt<BR>This text should be italicized 10 pt.

I will worry about the CSS formatting next but why are my line breaks not working?

AS Panel Line Breaks
Is there any way of being able to write line breaks without a "statement ending" error?

EX:

Code:
var myText:String="
This is my text with
line breaks
and not ends.
";
This abviously gives errors, but im wandering if theres a way to edit the AS error handling or add some sort of syntax to act like PHP and see the line breaks as
and not as statement ends.

Line Breaks In Strings
Hi, I visit this site alot and I thought I would register and ask for some help!!


okay I have a string variable

var infobox:String;

and I put the dynamic text box on the stage assign the VAR name _root.infobox
and make the box large enough for a few lines of txt.

So I insert the info txt by using

_root.infobox = ("Oh so you have traveled far from another Lords estate and one of you companians has been...");

and when I test it, I noticed that the dynamic txt box does not Auto break or wrap it. So it goes off the Readable area. Which I why I need some help on making line breaks for this.

Any contenders?

Textfields And Line Breaks....
Im not sure if anyone can help me, but could possibly be something small...

Im building a Flash application, and Input textfields are used to pass text data to a mySQL database, im also using FPDF to convert the data from the mySQL database to a PDF form on the fly...

the main process is fine, but when the user enters text into the input fields (these are flash fields) and clicks the submit button the database appears fine with the submitted text with correct line breaks... but in the PDF all the line breaks are ignored? it's only fixed when i log into PHPmyAdmin and click "go" (i.e. save) on each record... i don't even have to modify the text data in the database but just save the database again as though i have edited something but really i haven't. Seems quite wierd?

the problem is whether it is a Database problem or a Flash problem?

I have no idea...

HTML In XML And Line Breaks
Hi all,

Have trawled various forums and tried every possible combination but cannot find a solution to my problem:
I have an XML file containing some simple HTML markup. The HTML contains both bold text and line breaks. Something like this:

Code:
<data>
<message><p>This is some <b>bold</b>text and this <br/> is a linebreak</p>
</message
</data>
I am putting this in a text field using:

Code:
textField.htmlText = xml.message
I cannot achieve both bold text and line breaks. I eiher get bold text and no line breaks or line breaks before and after the bold text.
I have tried converting to the text to a string, putting the HTML block into CDATA (that is, everything between the <message> tag). I have tried every possible combination using textField.condenseWhite, XML.prettyPrinting, ignoreWhitespace etc etc. I have tried putting the xml node straight into the textField, both with CDATA and no CDATA, no difference. I have used both E4X and "normal" xml parsing. I am not using embedded fonts but system fonts. I have put multiple <br/> tags in but they get ignored if I put CDATA around, if i remove the CDATA I get line breaks all over the place. No CDATA and prettyPrinting removes line breaks after the bold but also removes the "real" line breaks (the <br/> tag) as well.
I want to be able to have both bold text and line breaks where I want them.
I'm going crazy here, anyone has any suggestions? Do I have to write my own parser for this simple HTML text?
Thanks!
