Loading An HTML Table Into Flash
...So I just found out that you can't put <table> tags into an external text file to load into Flash. That pretty much devastated my project. But I do have a glimmer of hope that something can be done. Maybe you guys can help with some creative ideas? I would appreciate it tremendously.
Here is the problem. I want to load external text that looks like this into a scrolling text box:
BLASER K95 PRESTIGE .30-06 &n bsp; $3,000
BLASER LUX 7MM REM MAG   ; & nbsp; $3,109
BLASER R93 270 W/ SYNTHETIC STOCK $1,972
BLASER R93 ATTACHE .308 W/ CASE &nbs p; $4,392
BLASER R93 LUX 375 SAF   ; & nbsp; $3, 533
BLASER R93 TK LUX STOCK RECEIVER $1,857
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
Oh... and I have Flash MX (not 2004)

Loading A Transparent Swf Into A Html Table
Really basic question (we are flash noobs) but we are just debating this here. We have a html page into which we have a table with a background image. What we want to do is load a transparent swf movie into this table so we can see the background image still. Still making sense? anyway wahy we want to do is load and unload swf's into this table without affecting the background (and still see the background). I sure it can be done fairly easily but just intersted to know how others would go about it, thanks

An HTML Table In Flash?
I'm potentially developing an application that will be displaying lots of data to the user. I'm looking to find or develop some reusable code that mimics some of the HTML Table functionality.
So basically, I'm looking for a system that can:
- Take an array of data
- Create a grid or rows and columns based on that data
- Size the rows and columns based on a spec.
- Allow for customizable colors.
I've scoured the movies section of flashkit for such a beast, but to no avail. Any help appreciated.
If I don't find something, maybe I'll code it (possibly using the new drawing capabilities of mx). Any thoughts welcome.

Render HTML Table In Flash
Hi all,
Anyone here who knows how to work with HTML tables in Flash, I think there are some components developed by using XML and Flash Action Scripting.
Initially i requires the following functionality from HTML tables:
(1) Support for percentage widths on tables
(2) Support for nesting
(3) Support for IMAGES in cells(JPEG only. GIF/PNG later with Claus Wahler's projected upgrade to jpg2swf)
(4) Change the root node to "<BODY>" to allow complete document rendering. Not just tables.
(5) Support for inline styles
(6) Support for table scrollable
Thankx in Advance

I bought a CD w/FlashMX sample sites. The swf files have animation at the top w/thumbnails underneath with plenty of links and rollovers. But the fla file on my CD shows only the top animation. Is something missing or do I change all the bottom stuff in Dreamweaver and bring it into Flash?

Loadinh Html Table Into Flash
Hi.
I tried to load html table into my flash and it only loaded the text
in table and not the lines of the table.
I used this code:
this.createTextField("tData", this.getNextHighestDepth, 0,0, 80, 40);
tData.multiline = true;
tData.wordWrap = true;
tData.border = true;
tData.html = true;
tData.condenseWhite = true;
var htmlTable:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
htmlTable.onData = function(loadedTable:String):Void{
tData.htmlText = loadedTable;
};
htmlTable.load("table.htm");
my table.htm file is a very simple table, nothing special about it.
any ideas ??

Importing A Html Table Into Flash
Here's the problem. I Have flash application that takes the data from a User, the data is sent to an ASP.Net page, where it returns an array of numbers. Those numbers are the names of the JPG that are imported it to flash (results)
into a scroller that has one on top of the other. that works fine. the problem is the designer, redesigned its so that 2side by side, the 2 undernegth and so on.
So im trying to think of a way to display these images in that way.
Is it possible to import a html table into a movieclip? i know flash can use some html. but what im thinking is when the info is passed to ASP.NET, it can generate a Html table so i can havve freedom of how it can be displayed.
Thanks.

Flash Positioning In HTML Table

...when viewed with a Mac looks fine, but when viewed with a PC the Flash animation on the left of me with the map etc. (315 px. by 425 px.) is positioned one pixel too high, overlapping the white table border? I don't even get how this is possible with the way the HTML is written.
Will someone please look at the code? It's very very simple and is probably something small I am just overlooking.

Flash Hides My Html Table
I created a website with a drop down menu in html. I have a flash file that is directly below it. When you hover over the menu bar (specifically "News and Events") the submenu is hidden by the flash. The website is (no longer available). The flash shows up kind of slow so give it a minute. I have tried playing with the z-indexes and wmode="transparent" and I can't get anything to work. I also have not been working with html very long, so if anyone has any suggestions, please PLEASE let me know. Feel free to "view source" to see what I have. Thanks!

Inline Flash (inside HTML Table)
Has anyone played around with inserting a .swf into a table cell and had it "fit" the cell (and keep it's proportions). Basically I want to be able to use a .swf as the body of an HTML page and have it be scaleable. I have changed the object and embed tags to use percentages, and it works ok in ie6 PC but nothing else.
Any ideas?

When editing in dreamweaver they look lined up properly, but in a browser it is way off.
Will the alignment change on different resolutions etc. and what can i do instead if that is the case.

Can Flash Overlay HTML Table & Images?
I have an HTML page built using tables.
In one <TD> table section, I've placed a Flash element. No problem there, done that many times.
But the element here is a navigation menu. When a button is pressed, the menu "drops down."
Only, right now, the menu drops behind the table element beneath it.
If I make the table section that the menu is in large enough to fit the menu even when dropped down, it'll throw off the layout.
I've made drop downs overlay Flash before. Is it possible to do the opposite?
In other words, can I make Flash overlay table elements including images?
I'm sure it has something to do with Layers or CSS, but I haven't figured it out yet.
Thanks, heaps, for any help anyone can offer.

Border Around Flash Image In Html Table, Shouldn't Be There
On this page:
http://www.techartisans.net/speedMin...php?flash=true
you will find a table which includes one flash image. For some reason the flash image appears a pixel or two smaller than the table cell it is in, and so there is a dark blue border around it (it was a white border until I set the background color of the flash to dark blue). The cell is 326 pixels in height, and colspan=2 so it never actually says it is 360 wide, but it is. The flash image is also 360w x 326h.
I played around with adjusting the size of the flash but it didn't change much, just made the border slightly skinnier or fatter. I also took a good look at the widths and heights of the table cells, and they are all correct.
One strange thing was when I took out the spacer row that Flash creates when it publishes the html. The whole thing went out of wack, nothing matched up, even tho the widths and heights are correct. It's all just weird.
Any ideas why this might be happening, and how to fix it?
Thanks, Emily

ASCII Conversion Table...great For Flash Html...
For those who don't already have such a thing, or think they might one day need it, here's a link to an awesome ascii-conversion resource:www.asciitable.com/ Its useful for building html strings for html-enabled components, like textfields and such, so that the characters that make up an html tag, like </font> can be "escaped" with the following AS code
PHP Code:
HTMLclosetag=chr(60)+chr(47)+'font'+chr(62)
That variable can then be used as a kind of AS 'meta-tag' when building text strings that need html formatting for display in Flash.
Note: the 'chr()' command has been deprecated since Flash MX in favor of the 'String.fromCharCode()'...but I couldn't resist using a 3-character keyword instead of a 12-character one...

The Html-table Effect In Flash Movies When Resizing...help Pls
Hi guys, hope you can help me out, as usual
I see more and more webpages nowadays using this "effect" or whatever you should call it. What I'm talking about is that objects move as if their position were given with percent and not pixels, kinda like using tables in html.
So their position is different depending on the browser window size (and on resize). Here's a good example http://www.conclave.ru
Notice how the menu, submenus and other objects move like tables in html when you resize the browser window.
Can anyone point me to a tutorial of some kind that shows how this is done, keep in mind that my actionscript knowledge is limited
Thanks in advance

Multiple Flash Objects In A Table Not Loading In Firefox
I'm using Open Flash Chart to display 6 charts in a table with 3 rows and 2 columns. I have a menu of options to configure what data is displayed in the charts, and then a html button that invokes an actionscript function using ExternalInteface to build the charts.
When the page loads, the bottom 2 charts are not in the visible in the browser (you have to scroll down to see them). If you hit the build button, the bottom 2 charts do not respond to the function call. However, if I first scroll down so the charts are visible, and then scroll back up and hit build chart, the bottom two charts that are not visible again DO build fine. This led me to implement a terrible hack where it reveals the table of charts 1 row at a time, starting with the bottom and going up, so the charts pass by the visible portion of the page and will respond to the build button without the user scrolling to the bottom. As you can imagine this is extremely unreliable.
I'm only seeing this behavior in Firefox, all the charts build fine in IE6 and IE7 without having to scroll to the bottom of the page and back before interacting with them. I'm using the latest swfobject.js to embed the flash.
Please help! I have googled and googled and gotten nowhere and this is driving me NUTS! Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

Display Html Table In Html Enabled Textfield. Alternative?
hello!
i'm facing an issue due to the shortcomings of html tag support in flash.
The xml file containing the content to be displayed in a textfield (with html enabled) on the stage, contains a table. Right now, it displays each cell underneath each other, as if it were a paragraph. Any idea if there is a way to do this?
Also, is it possible to display an image inside a textfield (loading a img src="myimage.jpg" ) ?

Simple HTML Table Help
For my non-flash site, I am creating everything in a complex set of tables, but I always run into problems when I want images to seamlessly link between table cells. I already use "border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0" in the actual table tags and I set the cells to the exact same size as the images I put in them. It still leaves a small gap between the cells though, which looks bad. Is there something I am missing for this to work such as another thing to put in the table tags?

I followed a tutorial about reading text files, but
it doesn't seem to work with HTML files.
An application reads an Oracle database which generates
a report in HTML in a table format. Should it be easier
to read the information directly from the DB ??
...I really don't think so he he, at least for me
because I have no idea about database managers. That's

Layering SWF On Top Of Html Table Cell
I am trying to layer an .swf file on top of an html table cell. I would prefer not to use absolute positioning because all browsers display their pixels and margins differently. I need this to line up perfectly in the table. Is there another, more simple way to do this? I don't need the flash file to be transparent at all. I just want there to be something (the html) underneath the .swf in case a user does not have the plug-in installed.
All I really need to know is how to make an .swf file overlay something in a html table cell.

HTML Related, Table Problem
Hi,
!!First, I know I'm posting on the wrong board, but my problem is quite urgent!!
I'm having a problem with my table layout.
As you can see here, under the menu on the left side, there's a little green box (written configuration manager). That box is made out of jpg slices that I organized in little tables.
http://www.wrapmation.com/newver/TRA...hp?module=tm09
However, when I fill the middle(big blank area) with imported text, the little box gets all messed up. I know the reason is because the browser does not know which tables to resize so it resizes all of them proportionately.
http://www.wrapmation.com/newver/TRA...raqManager.php
What I want to know is is there a way to set somekind of an attribute to disable the stretching of certain table?
This is a problem that I've had for ages, please help!
Thanks,
David

Embed Swf Into Centre Of Html Table
ok - i've got my sexy little swf all finished and it's sitting nicely in the centre of a table in a html file
the swf is 760px x 420 px
so in theory when a user with a 800 x 600 res opens it - it will fit snugly into their browser window
but i want to set it up so if someone with a larger scren res opens it - it will simply sit smack bang in the middle of their browser window
i have the table width set to 100%
any ideas - my brain is fried
