Dynamic Text Field Receiving Dynamic Variables...
or something like that . . .
This is my problem: I'm generating _global variables via XML. Each variable represents different types of copy, of varying lengths. For Example:
_global.introduction = xmlDoc_xml.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
_global.body = xmlDoc_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeVa lue;
_global.summary = xmlDoc_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.firstC hild.nodeValue;
I want to create ONE text field, with scrolling, that will act as a template to house all types of content. I've assigned a variable that equals "content" to this text field. . . My problem is, I can't get the text field variable (content) to dynamically swap for the global variable (_global.introduction) in order to display the proper content.
This seems simple, but something's not working for me. Any thoughts? . . . BIG thanks in advance!

Receiving 'true' In The Dynamic Field Rather Than The Data
Hi I'm having problems getting a dynamic field to display some XML properly, i think it is jut my syntax but not sure, if i make a manual path of Movieclips with instance names it displays fine!!!
Basically I have this load Var statement, which contains the path to the dynamic field when generated:
var description_lv = new LoadVars();
description_lv.onData = function(raw_text){
currentThumb_mc.DJ.VenueN2.description_txt.text = raw_text;
}
in turn i have below creating the dynamic clip
//create DJ: clip
currentThumb_mc.DJ.attachMovie("DJ2","DJ3",2)
currentThumb_mc.DJ.DJ3._x = 56
currentThumb_mc.DJ.DJ3._y = -5
currentThumb_mc.DJ.DJ3.DJN_txt.text = currentPicture.attributes.title; //-- is working
//create Venue: clip
currentThumb_mc.DJ.attachMovie("VenueN","VenueN2",3)
currentThumb_mc.DJ.VenueN2._x = 56
currentThumb_mc.DJ.VenueN2._y = 7
currentThumb_mc.DJ.VenueN2.description_txt.text = description_lv.load(this.description);
the bottom line is one i have modified out of a release statement, I am receiving a error URL not found, in addition the path is correct as the field is displaying true, but i'm not sure how to change the code to get this data appearing correctly, like i said it works manually creating MC and i'm thinking the path is right above, so I cannot work out why else it wouldn't be working can someone pleeeeeeeeeeease help!
Thanks V much

Trouble Loading Variables To Dynamic Text Field
I am trying to display text from a text file named units.txt (stored in the same folder) The swf has a dynamic text box called myText. The swf has buttons with this code:
on (release) {
_level0.myText = Unit1;
}
The first frame of the movie has code like this:
loadVariablesNum("units.txt",0);
(I have tried including the entire url as well as just the folder above)
This works fine when I test the movie. It also works when I test it through the index.html (on my computer). But it does not work on my website.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

[CS3] Populating Dynamic Text Field With Multiple Variables
I have a Dynamic text field that is pulling in data from an external txt file. My txt file has multiple variables. Everything is fine with the txt file and loading any one of the single variables, it works fine. My questions is...
- When the movie starts I need the dynamic field to load the first variable [txt file: text=My first variable] then...
-I have three buttons and when rolled over I want the text field to replace the current variable with whichever buttons variable is rolled over, once the user rolls out I want the original [variable 1] to reappear in the dynamic text field.
For example...
onLoad, display variable 1.
onRollOver btn1, display variable 2.
onRollOver btn2, display variable 3.
then, on any rollOut go back to variable 1.
I have been having an unusually hard time getting this to work, ANY help with this would be greatly appreciated, thanks

I have a dynamic text field with the var-name ‘vartotal’.
Var total should be:

How can this be done?

Passing Dynamic Variables To Flash Text Field
Hello,
I want to pass a variable from a URL to a text field in my flash movie.
The variable that I'm passing will always be different, and I need it to load in the dynamic text field i have in flash.
this url:
www.myurl.com/mySWF.swf?code=2003
should send "2003" to a text field in my flash movie.
Any idea how to do this? I've searched all forums and couldn't find anything this specific.

[AS2] Changing Text In Dynamic Text Field With Dynamic Instance Name
I dont know what I am missing here but what I want to do is change the text inside a dynamic text field via actionscript. the code I am using runs in a loop within a function. Trace is outputting the correct values.
PHP Code:
for(i=0; i<=4; i++) {
if(_root["order_"+ q][i] == 0) {
["order_"+ i]text = "First";
trace("first");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 1) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Second";
trace("Second");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 2) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Third";
trace("Third");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 3) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Fourth";
trace("Fourth");
} else if (_root["order_"+ q][i] == 4) {
["order_"+ i]text = "Fifth";
trace("Fifth");
}
}
basically I want to do this -
PHP Code:
order_0.text = "First";
So how can I change this line to work as expected?
PHP Code:
["order_"+ i]text = "First";
EDIT- The instance names for the dynamic text fields are set
Thanks

Dynamic Vars, Dynamic Paths Using Variables And External Text Files
Hi there,
first off, apologies for the long post, but its a tricky problem to explain... and on my first post too! (sorry )
Im have a bit of bother with flash calling variables from a text file, and using them to make paths to other variables, and to control the amount of time a duplicate clip occurs. The first of these 2 problems is this:
Im loading a text file "content.txt" into _root. (this works fine)
it contains the variables:
webclipcount=2
&webhenry=hello hello
&webbutton01=henry
on the main timeline I have this button
on(press){
sectiontitle="web"
clipcount=webclipcount
}
there is a text box on the main timeline with variable name of bodycopy.
on a clip on the main timeline I have this;
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (num< _parent.clipcount) {
duplicateMovieClip(thebutton, "button"+depth, depth);
this["button"+depth].name = _parent[_parent.sectiontitle+"button"+num];
this gives button01 the name henry- this works.
on the duplicated clip I have these actions:
on(mouseDown){
_parent._parent.bodycopy=_parent._parent[_parent._parent.sectiontitle+this.name]
}
so we end up with a path like:
_parent._parent.bodycopy=_parent._parent.webhenry
and it in turn should make the textbox on the main timeline contain "hello hello"
but it doesnt.
also for the duplicating clip, unless i use:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (num< 2) {.....
<snip>
it wont work either. it seems neither can be dynamic/ pulled from the text file. (well, i can get them to work!)
If I use direct paths like:
on(mouseDown){
_parent._parent.bodycopy="bloody hell it works!"
}
and
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (num< 2) {.....
<snip>
it works, but not if they are dynamicly set from the txt file...
Anyone care to shed some light onto this? its doing my head in!
thanks in advance or the help.
cheers,
chris

Trying To Pass Text From Form Text Field To A Flash Dynamic Text Field
Hi, I was hoping someone might enlighten me as to how/if I can do this...
Currently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:
Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}
Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.
Your help/advice would be greatly appreciated,
-Scott

Dynamic Text Field And Dynamic Xml Field
Good evening,
After days of debugging, I find myself cornered by identifying the absence of content in a dynamic xml field.
I am trying to build a function that will move the playhead to a new frame "waiting" when the field is undefined. When the field is populated, the playhead will move to an active frame "vote".
I have attempted several variations on the following code and nothing has worked as of yet.
if (_root.mc_xml.b1v.text=="") {
trace("waiting");
} else if {
trace("vote");
}
// never got it to print anything but vote
There are five possible strings that can dynamically populate b1v from the xml: "Aye", "Nay", "Abstain", "Absent", "NP".
When the vote is complete the xml nodes and their children disappear and flash sees the xml text field as undefined.
What is the correct AS to target or check for null or undefined?
is null
=null
!=null
=undefined
is undefined
!=undefined
I just need a boolean answer. Please someone release me from this loop.
Thanks

Dynamic XML Variables As Field Names In Events?
My second week of using Flash so please excuse my ignorance.
I am trying to take a dynamic text variable “mcname” and insert it into a button that toggles on/off the visibility of a Movie Clip of the same name.
Issue of correct code to call the variable. The actual value of the "mcname" (which is being pulled from XML doc with value "testvis") is not working as a movie clip name in the field name position.
I am trying to get this:
on (press) {
_root.['mcname']._visible = false;
}
To function like the standard hand coded:
on (press) {
_root.testvis._visible = false;
}
I have a menu that is being built dynamically with XML and want to pass a childnode value (in this case "testvis") to the buttons that turns off/on movie clips of same name "testvis".
simple SWF of attached FLA example here: http://www.mediaoutsource.com/flash/
If anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it.

Asp Database Field Loaded Into Dynamic Text Field -HELP
Hi all,
after much trial and error and still having troubles i thought i would ask people that maybe know what there doing.
Im using Flash 8 pro, and have placed textarea component on stage and gave it an instantce name, need to pull a single record from a record database using asp.
This is my approach but if there is an even easier way let me know.
I have created the following pages.
webpage.asp (end result web page that shows the text field to user)
script.asp( asp script that sends data back/forth to flash
i used the FlashVars param to pass a variable into the flash movie.
variable is named auto_num. im using this to then pass it back out of flash to filter the recordset.
then on the flash movie.swf. all on root level. i have the following code
var text_value; //(this is the value sent back from asp page string)
//not sure if i needed to declare it but did anyways.
var_sender = new LoadVars();
myData = new LoadVars();
var_sender.auto_number = auto_num //(auto_num is loaded flashvars param)
myData.onLoad = function() {
my_text_1.text = this.text_value
};
myData.sendAndLoad("http://www.********.com/script.asp", myData ,"POST");
on the script page i have a record set that filters for form variable named auto_number. all of code is in asp. I call a response.write to write the text_value back to the flash movie.
here is the heart of the script.asp code. not showing the record set filtering stuff.
<% Dim text_value
text_value = "text_value="&(Recordset1.Fields.Item("long_des"). Value)
response.write(text_value)
%>
but i get undefined and can never get the variables to load into the flash movie. i want to export as flash player 6 or 7. what am i doing wrong here?
So in a nutshell, i have an asp page that shows a record and would like to display the long description field of that record in a flash dynamic text box.
I can make it work by passing the entire long description from record set within the flashvars param but that seems like a real clunky way to do it pasing that much text within the flashvars param.
Does anyone know of simple database connectivity kits that extend flash for the semi-programmer guys?

Input Text Field To Dynamic Text Field
Ok, I have an input text field with a variable name of "enter", and a dynamic text field with a variable name of "display". I also have a button on the stage. I want it so that when you press the button, it checks what the user has put into the input text field, and if it is valid it will display a certain message in the dynamic text field.
For example:
If the user types in "hydrogen" and then clicks the button, I want the dynamic text field to display the letter H. Likewise, if the user types in "oxygen" and then clicks the button, I want the dynamic text field to display the letter O. And finally, if the user types in something that is not specified in the code, it will just display "Not Valid".
I tried doing this with an on(release) action and then some if statements, but nomatter what I typed in it would always display H. I'm probably overlooking something simple, but nonetheless, I need help. Thanks

Dynamic Text Field
I am making a list of information inside a dynamic text field that has a scrollbar. However, I can't get the text to line up properly. There are 3 columns of text, and I just can't get everything lined up. I know that I cannot make tables inside of a dynamic text field, so does anyone know of a way that I can get all of this text lined up properly? It looks so messy. Even when it looks perfectly lined up in the .fla, in the .swf it never looks right.

Dynamic Text Field
Hi
I'm trying to create a scrolling text in Flash MX that will go horizontally from side to side of the stage, each scrolling text will be a number of words each separated of each other by a bullet or small circle.
The scrolling text will be a Movie Clip with one single Dynamic text field that will load it's variables from a .txt document, that dynamic field will duplicate it self as many times as the amount of variables on the .txt document.
So I was thinking that if I created variables using a numbers like 1 = word, 2 = another word ect. To whatever numbers of words I want to be displayed on the scrolling text I could use a script on the first frame that could say something like this. (Dynamic text field has a variable called ticker)
loadVaraibles(TickerText.txt, this)
ticker = 1 + "."
Now comes the questions
Can flash read more than one variable in a single .txt file? Or it read on and assume that everything else within the file is just part of the first variable?
If this is possible how can I tell flash duplicate this dynamic text field as many times as the amount of variables on this particular .txt file?
I know this all sound really confusing but I hope that some one can understand me and give me some tips to get this to work or maybe make a simple sample of it and upload it on my server so I can see how can this be done.

3 Dynamic Text Field In 1 MC...
I'm not to sure what type of heading to make a search through the site (flashkit) for what I wanted. But this is what I want to achieve.
I know how to call .txt in a dynamic text field. But, can I have 3 Dynamic Text Field's placed in my MC that uses the same .txt file?. Instead of using 3 seperate .txt files?
So instead of each .txt to change the details, could you use just one .txt file and say for example; there are three paragrahs in the .txt file.
1st paragragh shows in 1st DTF
2ndparagragh shows in 2nd DTF
3rd paragragh shows in 3rd DTF
can any one help me here or show me a good tutorial on it?

Ack Dynamic Text Field In Mc
ack,
i am trying to load .txt file into a mc inside another movie clip.
normally loadvariables works just fine for this.
BUT... the mc is itself loaded via attachmovie when a button is clicked
the button-pressing code i'm using looks something like this:
on (release) {
_root.mc_content.attachMovie("mc_improv", "mc_improv1", 0);
loadVariables("assets/improv.txt", "_root.mc_content.mc_improv1");
}
is it a scoping issue?
is my level somehow wrong?
the only other solution i could come up with was to put my mc on the stage, set the alpha to 0, then put it back to 100% when the appropriate button is clicked.
but i'm sure it must be possible in a better way

Dynamic Text Field In CD
Hi All
Stuck with a project that calls for a Dynamic text field to come up in a projector file that I deliver on CD. I just can't see it when I publish. All is well when testing the swf alone. I guess it is a level thing?
What I hope to do is pass on a CD to members of my team who will then place the content in a folder on their desktop. Over time I would like to email small text files that they can place in that folder and appear in the appropriate part in the projector file. Kind of an update thing.
Am I trying for the impossible or just missing something simple?

Can't Set Dynamic Text Field
Hello,
I'm trying to populate a dynamic text field in a movie clip after creating it by using the duplicateMovieClip method.
Now one thing is that the textfield embedded in the duplicated movie clip is under a mask so I set that text field to be embedded. Also, the movie clip is rather deep w/in other movie clips so I don't know if that is an issue either.
Here's an example of the code I'm using:
duplicateMovieClip( mc_scroll_group.masked_movie.scrollpage.show_db_li st.mc_show_plate , "mc_show_plate", 1 );
mc_scroll_group.masked_movie.scrollpage.show_db_li st["mc_show_plate"+ i].txt_title = "*This is the text*";
