Flash :: Input Field Multiline> When Dynamic Multil Field Shows That Data From Mysql But No Wr

MySQL Data Into Dynamic Text Field Without Escape Sequence
Hi guys,

I got a music portfolio web site running PHP, MySQL and Flash. There's a page showing all the artists my client worked for and when you click on a song title, this title is passed as a variable to a PHP page then to a Flash page. The Flash page contains an actionscript music player which then looks for the right audio file in the database and plays the song. Everything works great except for the dynamic text field which displays the song title. If the song title contains an apostrophe or a single quote, the Flash dynamic text field then shows the apostrophe preceded by a .

Here's an image :

For example, the song Breaking up somebody's home (by Nanette Workman) is written as is into the MySQL database. The display into the HTML page is fine ( no ), The problem is with the Flash dynamic text field.

The problem I think, is that PHP variables are sent to the Flash player and one of these variables contains a string with single quotes in it (the actual song title). Here's the partial code that points the problem :

[code]
<?php
while($arrAudio = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultAudio))
{
$aTitle = $arrAudio["Title"];
$aFile = $arrAudio["File"];
$counter = $counter + 1;
?>
Track <?=$counter?> / <em>Plage <?=$counter?></em> : <a href="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?audioname='.$aTitle.'&audiofile='.$aFile.'&imagefile='.$flashImage?>" target="_blank"><?= $aTitle ?></a><br />
<?php
[/code]

Where $aTitle is the song title containing a single quote. How can I tell Flash to NOT escape the single quote ?

The actual site is here : http://www.pierrepineault.com/contentFrame.php

Many thanks in advance.

Passing Data From Input Field To Dynamic Text Box

Basically I just need information that is entered by the user into a input field to be passed to a dynamic text box.

Ie on a contact form when they submit their request a message is displayed saying "Thankyou{users name}, your request has been recieved.

The rest of the form is working, it's just this bit!!!

Any info would be gratefully received.

Multiline Input Text Field Problems...
I have a flash movie where the user can input text into multiline text fields and then submit that text to some PHP scripting that creates a text file on my server of the information.

However when you submit the text it create square symbols where the text goes down to the new lines...

It detects the returns in the text field and writes those too.

This then means the text does not import into flash correctly.

thanks,

neb

Erase Default Line Break Multiline Input Field
When I click on an empty multiline input text field, it already starts with a line break so the text to be entered starts at line 2. How can I get rid of this? I can't use anything like

Code:
if (myInputTextField_txt.text !="") {
myInputTextField_txt.text = "";
}
because when the myInputTextField already contains text I don't want it to get deleted.

So I'm looking for a way for Flash to find this whatever flash puts in a textfield upon entering it when empty and only then erase it.

Dynamic Text Field - Multiline
I have text coming in via remoting. I can see the text, however it will not multiline for some reason. I have checked the height of the text box and set it to 500 which should be sufficient. Anyone got any ideas? Here is the code:

// CREATING HEADLINE TEXT FORMAT /////////////////////////////////////////
headformat = new TextFormat();
headformat.font = "HelveticaNeue Condensed";
headformat.bold = true;
headformat.size = 36;
headformat.multiline = true;

createTextField("headLine",this.uiDepth++,13,17,11 4,500);

// HEADLINE TEXT ////////////////////////////////////////
headLine.text = result.items[0].c_Textline;
headLine.selectable = false;
headLine.multiline = true;
headLine.setTextFormat(headformat);
headLine.embedFonts = true;

Help With Saving An Input Text Field To Mysql
I have several input boxes (they changed dynamically and are created by actionscript at run time).

I'd like to send the text in all these input boxes to a php script for parsing.

I've gotten the text to send and parse, but the line breaks don't parse.

Here's my code:

Code:
var myStr:String;
var myIdx:Number = 0;
for (var tfIdx:String in textFields) {
if (tfIdx.indexOf('field') != -1) {
if (myIdx == 0) {
myStr = textFields[tfIdx].text;
} else {
myStr = textFields[tfIdx].text + '###AAA###' + myStr;
}
myIdx++;
trace("1");
}
trace(tfIdx);
}

trace(myStr);

var variables:URLVariables=new URLVariables();
var saveCard:URLRequest=new URLRequest(siteUrl + 'wp-content/plugins/greeting_cards/save_card.php');

variables.cardDataID=cardID;
variables.gcUID=userToken;
variables.cardDataMsg=myStr;

saveCard.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;
saveCard.data=variables;
var loader:URLLoader=new URLLoader();
loader.dataFormat=URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, saveDone);
loader.load(saveCard);
The file it saves to doesn't have the line breaks intact. Any ideas?

Multiline Dynamic Text Field - Possible To Dynamically Resize?
Is it possible to have a multiline dynamic text field resize itself based on the amount of content being placed in it?

Lets say I make a multiline text field that is three lines high. If I assign text that fills more than that space, it gets cut off after those three lines are filled. The rest you cant see becuase it extends to the fourth line (and so on).

Is it possible to set the textbox so that it will expand if I assigned it more text than three lines worth of text?

Dynamically Loading MySQL Data Into Text Field
Ok, I know this has been covered countless times but regardless of the numerous tutorials, posts etc. that I read I cannot get flash to read in my mysql data. I can make it read in a simple variable i.e.

PHP Code:

$x = "abc";print "varname=$x";

... but as soon as I add anything else into it, it fails. Even just addign the mysql connect lines infront of what I have there will cause it to fall over.
What I need is basically how to code the following PHP script and the action script (or even an explanation of how to alter it).

PHP Code:

mysql_connect("$host", "$user", "$password");mysql_select_db("$database");$sql = "SELECT * FROM news order by date DESC LIMIT 10";$result = mysql_query($sql); $anc = 1;while ($newArray = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $id = $newArray['id'];$news = stripslashes($newArray['news']);$date = $newArray['date'];$head = stripslashes($newArray['head']);$date = date("d/m/Y", strtotime($date));print"***$date and $news should be printed here***"++$anc;}

Honestly try as I might, I cannot get this to display.

Thanks in advance

[MX] Form Not Sending Input Field Data
This is the first time I'm using Flash, so this is probably something really dumb I'm doing. I've followed 10 different tutorials I've found on the net, and still can't get this to work.

I have a simple form - 2 fields both set as input text. One is named realname, the other email. Then there's a button (pill button I got from the common library) that is used to submit the form. The info then is sent to my form processor and I get an email with the information.

However - the information typed into the realname and email textboxes aren't being sent to the form processor. I have tried it several different ways, and nothing I do is making that information pass through. (Like I said, I'm probably just missing a simple step or something)

Here's the action that's run when the button is clicked.

Code:
on (release) {
userData = new LoadVars();
userData.realname = realname;
userData.email = email;
userData.recipients = "sherrington";
userData.subject = "RSVP to Open House";
userData.mail_options = "AlwaysList";
userData.send("formmail2.php", "", "post");
}
The three things listed there that aren't part of my form are required by my form processor in order to send the email. Those things are passing through just fine - it's the "realname" and "email" that aren't getting through.

I tried this code (which I found on a different tutorial) but it didn't work either.

Code:
on (release) {
userData = new LoadVars();
userData.realname = realname.getValue();
userData.email = email.getValue();
userData.recipients = "sherrington";
userData.subject = "RSVP to Open House";
userData.mail_options = "AlwaysList";
userData.send("formmail2.php", "", "post");
}
AND I tried a code that used a getURL but it didn't work either (Sorry, don't have that code available anymore to cut and paste)

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong??

}

I want to store, cause I will have a back button in a multiple pages form. I want users to be able to go back and check what they have typed. is this possible?

PHP/MYSQL/XML - Loading .txt Into Dynamic Txt Field
Hi,
I've just installed mysql/php server on my apache and have sucessfully followed the lee's tutorial on attaching values to a list component using PHP-created XML.
My goal in all of this is to bring multiline, specially formatted text files into a dynamic text field so that I can change the file at will.
I don't really want to store the content of these text files within the XML however (as they will be fairly long and there will be alot of them), and so was hoping there was some way of referencing .txt's through urls stored in the sql db, that can then be loaded into the dynamic text field?

Does anyone have any idea about loading .txt's into dynamic text fields?
I understand how to do it normally, but would like to do so through urls stored in the mysql db, referencing .txts on the server.

If anyone has any ideas or knows of any good info let me know.

Thanks :wink:

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

I realize that one has to create a variable the references the input field but after that my mind draws a blank and like Homer Simpson, the circus monkeys in my brain start dancing.

[F8] Input And Dynamic Text Field Value
Hi guys.
This is my (probably very simple ) problem:

In scene 1, keyframe 1 I got an input text field (instance name = in1) and a button. The button got this code:

Code:
on(release){
gotoAndStop(2);
}

On keyframe 2 I only got a dynamic textfield (instance name= out1).

I want to write someting into the input text field on frame 1, press the button and when I'm on keyframe 2; I want the dynamical text field to display what I wrote.

On keyframe 2 I have written this code:

Code:
_root.out1.text=_root.in1.text;

(Im betting this is wrong!)
When I try this out I don't get my input data. I only get "undefined" in the dynamic text field.

Now this works perfectly fine if I use the same variable name, entered in the "variable box" in properties. But I would rather access the variables as a property of the textfield.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for a fantastic forum,
Ontrop.

Dynamic Input Text Field ?
Hi all,

This is possible to dynamically create input textfields and then style them with new textFormat something like

ActionScript Code:
this.createTextField("txtBox_txt", 1, 50, 50, 200, 20);
textBox = new TextFormat();
textBox.background = true;
textBox.backgroundColor = 0xffffff;
textBox.bold = true;
txtBox_txt.setNewTextFormat(textBox);
or is it possible to use the new TextFormat object on a input text field that is manually been placed on the stage. So I create a input text field called input_txt and then style it.

ActionScript Code:
textBox = new TextFormat();
textBox.background = true;
textBox.backgroundColor = 0xffffff;
textBox.bold = true;
input_txt.setNewTextFormat(textBox);

Dynamic Input Text Field
Hi:

For some reason I can't figure this out. I am creating an input text field. I want the text that the user inputs to be assigned to a variable. For some reason the user can only input text if I put a text property in. So i set the variable to have a starting value. However when the user input does not change the variable, so it still comes up as the original value.

this.createTextField("pic3Tag", p++, 5, 170, 250, 100);
pic3Tag.type = "input";
pic3Tag.border = true;
pic3Tag.background = true;
pic3Tag.multiline = true;
pic3Tag.text = myTag;
pic3Tag.embedFonts = true;
pic3Tag.variable = myTag;
pic3Tag.setTextFormat(textFormat);

i'm so confused.

Smiley In Input Dynamic Text Field
Hello, I am wondering if you could put a graphic smiley into a text field by a person simply putting in: ": )" or something else like that. Here is the code I have so far:
Code:
smiley = new Array("_root.happysmiley", _root.winkingsmiley, _root.funnysmiley);
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (test == ":)") {
_root.display += smiley[1];
}
if (test == ";)") {
_root.display += smiley[2];
}
if (test == ":D") {
_root.display += smiley[3];
}
};

This is a simple trial of code, that are among others that I am trying to put in. Is it even possible for Flash MX 2004 to have graphic images or movie clips in a dynamic text field?

Dynamic Embed Font On Input Field
I posted this in another thread but it's burried and this problem is slightly different so I think it deserves its own

I've read a bunch of threads on embedFonts but most of them have text fields that are placed on stage. I'm creating a bunch of input text fields via a loop and some of the text fields have different fonts, sizes etc... I'm attaching the fonts via shared library.

This code here is within a for loop. It works when I remove the embedFonts=true but when I leave it in I can't see any fonts.

Code:
// text format
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].fontFace;
my_fmt.size = FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].fontSize;
my_fmt.align = FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].align;
my_fmt.color = FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].color;

// text field
fields_mc.createTextField(FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name,fields_mc.getNextHighestDepth(),xcoord,ycoord,100,25);

//
fields_mc[FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name].embedFonts = true;
fields_mc[FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name].type = "input";
fields_mc[FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name].selectable = true;
fields_mc[FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name].border = true;

// set text format
fields_mc[FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name].setNewTextFormat(my_fmt);

// set text
fields_mc[FieldArray[eObj.target.selectedIndex][i].name].text = bcInfo_so.data[FieldArray[templates_lb.selectedIndex][i].name];
Can someone help me out?

Also when I use autoSize=true, I lose my textfield alignment. So if I have a textfield aligned to the right and I use autoSize=true, it gets aligned to the left, even if I reset the text format. Ay ideas on this as well?

Thanks

Dynamic Bar Graph From Input Text Field
Hello!

I am trying to make a bar graph that tweens to the height, or decrease, according to the number defined in the Dynamic text box. I would like to use the tween class from MX for a nice bounce effect. Here is my code:

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

ICcost._height = Number(ICC1);

new Tween(ICcost, "_yscale", Elastic.easeOut, 0, ICC1, 2, true);

ICC1 is the dynamic text field that displays a number from a formula through a couple input boxes. ICcost is the name of the MC I want tweened.

As I have it now it doesnt tween, the height just goes to the ICC1 number which is ok for now. Is there a way to set the tween to happen when flash registers a change in the number? I am fairly comfortable with AS2 and I know there is a way I just don't know exactly what I am looking for. Any help or suggestions would be great!

Append Data To Dynamic Text Field
I am still relatively new to flash so please bear with me.

my question comes from a project i am working on where I read in data entries from a mysql database. in each of these entries, i have several fields which i would like to display. i have been able to succesfully read and output these entries in my text field, events_txt by using

events_txt.text += "whatever i'm adding";

what i am trying to do is display each field with a different format, (i.e. i want to display the "title" of the entry in the same box with the "details" of the entry, but at different font sizes and styles.

i have tried using the event_txt.setNewTextFormat() function at different times during the write process, but as many of you probably already know, this simply sets the text area to whatever format is last written.

do any of you know a way using actionscript to input different sections of text, at different font styles, to the same text area?

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

The line: thisClip.name.text = names[n-1];
puts my array info into the dynamic text field "name" in the mc "ball"

HELP Can INPUT BOX Number Value Change A Dynamic Text Field?
Yeah, I am trying to get my input field to change the value of a dynamic text box, which is accessing a variable from a .txt file.

The input field is called "Quantity1", "Quantity2", etc...

The Dynamic text fields load variables called "Price1", "Price2", etc...

Both go up to 10.

If I input a value, let's say 10, into "quantity4", then "price4" should change accordingly.

HOW CAN I DO THIS?

A global variable is used to store the total and add it to what the user enters into level0.body.additional. I've tried the following code but all it does is concatenate as if both values were strings (inserting carrage returns inbetween) - not numbers (so say global.total was 50 and the user enters 20 in the input text box, the dynamic text box has 50 then 20 on the next line - I've changed the dynamic text field property to be single line but it doesn't make a difference).

I've tried wrapping "this.text" in the Number() function call but I get "Not a Number" returned.

Any ideas please?

Thanks for any help,

Richard

var newTextField:Object = new Object();
newTextField = _level0.body.additional;

newTextField.onKeyDown = function() {
if(Key.isDown(Key.ENTER)) {
_global.total = _global.total + this.text;
_level0.body.totalrequested.text = _global.total;
};
};

newTextField.onSetFocus = function() {
Key.removeListener(this);
Key.addListener(this);
};

newTextField.onKillFocus = function() {
Key.removeListener(this);
};

Displaying User Input Into A Dynamic Text Field
Hello everyone. Hope you are all well.

Have a bit or of a problem.

I have imported and XML file and using the code below i am able to store comments against a particular node.

//istener object for tree
var lo:Object = new Object();//a custom object called "lo" is created.
lo.change = function(evtObj:Object):Void{

var itm:Object = mytree.getSelectedItem();
if(itm.savedComment != undefined)
newcomment.text = itm.savedComment;

else
newcomment.text = "";
}
mytree.addEventListener("change",lo);//everytime the tree component generates a change event
//from the user selecting a different node the listener code runs.

//listener object for submit button
var lo2:Object = new Object();
lo2.click = function(evtObj:Object):Void{
var itm:Object = mytree.getSelectedItem();
itm.savedComment = newcomment.text;
}
addCommentbtn.addEventListener("click",lo2);

All i need now is that whenever the user clicks on a button ("viewComment") ALL the comments already submitted are presented in a dynamic text field.

ANy help is much appreciated. Thanks.
