Input text field nested in movie clip?

Hello,
Is it possible to have an input text field inside a movie
clip in Flash Lite 2? I've tried targeting it all different ways
and it doesn't seem to work, so I just thought I'd check with
someone who knows.
Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi Nirnalatha,
I have newly joined this forum and while going through the
posts I came across your post which I thought I could help out. But
I think I am too late for the reply.
I am also into Flashlite development couple of months from
now. Coming to your questions:
1. Textbox problem: I am surprised to know that E70 mobiles
(Device central list has E70-1 only) does not show input text box
when cursor is in input box. Anyways its a good thing that you dont
get an additonal input box. Like all J2ME applications you will be
able to type the text inline. Infact we had reverse problem where I
was told to create inline edit input box instead of flashlite input
box. I think this is the mobile setting. Check the device features
in the Adobe Device Central under Flash - Standalone player - Text
and Fonts features. It will be mentioned whether inline text is
allowed or not.
2. Soft keys issues: You need to use
fscommand2("SetSoftKeys", "Previous", "Next");
and use a key listener in order to override the Mobile
Softkey commands. Check out the flashlite help which clearly
explains this.
Hope I have given youa way to solve ur problem.

Using variables in input text fields nested in a movieclip

Hi all,
I am designing a roulette wheel type game. I am using a variable, "_global.myMoney = 0; " to keep track of the total money the player has. When I built the prototype, I used a dynamic text field on the stage with an instance name of "myMoney_text" and a variable of "_root.myMoney"
Now, I need to move this text box into a movie clip with an instance name of "winnings_mc"
When I test the movie, it looks like it showing the style sheet (font size, font, etc...) inside the dynamic text box. If I change the variable of the box to "_root.winnings_mc.myMoney" it seems to track initially, but now my updateMoney function in my main script does not work.
The function is called like this:
trace("updated money equals " + updateMoney(myMoney));
This always traces zero now, the initial value.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

if you want to use a global variable, when initializing and everytime you assign a new value, prefix the variable with _global:
_global.myMoney.
whenever you want to retrieve its value, use myMoney.
you should not be using _root.myMoney.
and as ned mentioned, you should stop using the variable associated with textfields and use the text property of your textfield to assign its text.

Regarding Input text fields

This is about fill in the blanks in flash 8 as2. In this i used input text fields and three buttons.In first frame i used multiple input text fields and a submit button. After filling all the blanks we click on submit button then in the second frame we will show the result like if the blank is correct it should change the color to green and if it is wrong it should change to red.and in the frame i have check button when we click on it will display all the answers. And when we click on analyse button we have to display the answer which the user types and the correct answers.
And my problem is when we click on submit there is no difference in the blanks color all are in black only and i have assigned red to the wrong answer and green to the correct answer.
and script on submit button is
on (release) {
    gotoAndStop("Bl1");
    if ((_root.Bl.txt1 == "abc1") && (_root.Bl.txt2 == "abc2") && (_root.Bl.txt3 == "abc3") && (_root.Bl.txt4 == "abc4")) {
        _root.Bl.txt1.textColor = 0x006600;
        _root.Bl.txt2.textColor = 0x006600;
        _root.Bl.txt3.textColor = 0x006600;
        _root.Bl.txt4.textColor = 0x006600;
    } else {
        _root.Bl.txt1.textColor = 0xFF0000;
        _root.Bl.txt2.textColor = 0xFF0000;
        _root.Bl.txt3.textColor = 0xFF0000;
        _root.Bl.txt4.textColor = 0xFF0000;
where "Bl" is the movie clip name and "txt1","txt2","txt3","txt4" are the var names for input text fields
Please help........

You are concatenating the conditions it will only work if all are true or all are false
on (release)
    gotoAndStop("Bl1");
    if (_root.Bl.txt1 == "abc1")
        _root.Bl.txt1.textColor = 0x006600;
    else
        _root.Bl.txt1.textColor = 0xFF0000;
    if (_root.Bl.txt2 == "abc2")
        _root.Bl.txt2.textColor = 0x006600;
    else
        _root.Bl.txt2.textColor = 0xFF0000;
    if (_root.Bl.txt3 == "abc3")
        _root.Bl.txt3.textColor = 0x006600;
    else
        _root.Bl.txt3.textColor = 0xFF0000;
    if (_root.Bl.txt4 == "abc4")
        _root.Bl.txt4.textColor = 0x006600;
    else
        _root.Bl.txt4.textColor = 0xFF0000;
You can also run a for loop for optimizing the code further.

Instance name and Var for Input Text fields

I have several Input Text fields, as a form, linked to a PHP
script for which I require Var's for each field.
But I also need Instance names for each field, so I can fix
the tabIndex.
Yet, everytime I test my movie, the text fields have their
Paths (_level0.fName) written in them.
They are normally blank, and I've tried putting in some text
of my own, but the Var name is still displayed in the text fields.
Is there any way I can stop that from happening, and keep
both the Instance names and Var's in-place.
As far as I know, I need both the Instance name (for the
tabIndex) and the Var (for the PHP script) or is there a way that
the tabIndex and PHP script will work with either of the two?
Thanks
Chaz.

Can you use a different name for ‘instance name’
and ‘var’? That seems to solve the problem but I
don’t know if that helps you in your situation.
For an example;
Instance name: test_txt
Var: test

Calculations in input text fields

Hello,
I'm making an engineering game. Students need to input force
equations and to check the equation is right it has to add up to
zero. There are two input text fields, one the student sees with
the force values expressed in letters like HA, VA, and MA, and one
hidden field where the values are expressed as numbers. They also
input operators as part of the equation. I need to make it so when
they click a button to check if their equation is correct, the
contents of the text field are calculated to see if the equation
adds up to zero. I know you can express the contents as a number
with say Number (this.my_hidden_text.text), but how do I get the
operators in the equation, which are +, -, *, /, (, ), and ^ to
mean something and do what they're supposed to?
Any assistance would be most welcome.
Thank you for your time,
Beatie3

Thank you for your quick response. Would you mind explaining
more how to use the strings method to find the operators, please?
It's a bit messy but my code currently looks like this:
stop();
//hide stuff
this.tickb._visible = false;
this.crossb._visible = false;
//declare the variables
var check1:Number = parseInt(display_secret.text);
var display1 = "";
var display_secret = "";
//function for the calculation
function onCalculate() {
if(this.display_secret = 0){
this._parent.tickb._visible = true;
this._parent.crossb._visible = false;
} else {
this._parent.crossb._visible = true;
this._parent.tickb._visible = false;
check02_btn.onRelease = function():Void {
trace(display1);
trace(check1);
if(check1 == 0){
this._parent.tickb._visible = true;
this._parent.crossb._visible = false;
} else {
this._parent.crossb._visible = true;
this._parent.tickb._visible = false;
//load external images
pic04_container.loadMovie("fig_3_1a.gif");
//takes you back to the previous scene
back02_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop("Scene 2", 1);

Input text field problem

I am VERY new at this...I'm following directions in "Hands On
Training Flash 8 book...
When creating an input text field the book instructs me to
embed the font using the embed button that is in the Property
Inspector...When I do this and test the movie there is no cursor in
the text box and I am not allowed to type in it..
If I do not embed the font then when I test the movie the
input field works. I click on it and get a cursor and am able to
enter information.
Is the book I'm using wrong here or is there something I'm
missing? Thank you.

Input text field displays U.S. keyboard layout

Hi,
I've got a Flash Player 9 / AS3 animation which has a input
text field where a user enters their email address.
Now my PC is setup to use the UK keyboard layout so when I
click the buttons Shift+@ then I get the @ symbol displayed.
But for some reason the moment I try typing in the @ symbol
(using Shift+@ keys) then up pops the " symbol which is a U.S.
keyboard layout if I'm not mistaken?
And so checking this, if I use the Shift+number 2(") key then
I get the @ symbol (which again is a U.S. keyboard layout if I'm
not mistaken?).
Obviously I can't expect my UK users to know this and so need
to work out how to change the keyboard layout for the text input
fields so when I click the shortcut buttons Shift+@ I should see
the @ symbol appear.
Hope that all makes sense.
Any help is greatly appreciated as this is a live project
that the client is racing to get fixed.
Many thanks and kind regards,
Mark

Hi,
I have found some other weird things happening regarding this
issue which are very odd?
To recap....
If I type into the search bar at the top of this page Shift+@
then I get the correct character displayed which is @ (so my
keyboard is definitely UK layout).
If I create a new Flash movie with nothing but a text field
set to INPUT and type Shift+@ then again I get the correct
character!
But if I type Shift+@ into my Flash movie I get the wrong
character " appear!?
I then checked both text fields and found there were
absolutely no differences (except for colour/font size), so I
copied the new text field into my Flash movie and the moment I
played my Flash movie the new text field (which was working) then
started doing the same and displaying the wrong character???
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Mark

Using a button to check an input text field

I am an educator and I am designing an interactive activity for my students. I created two buttons named button_B and button_G, and an input textfield named in_Text. When a student presses button_B, the letter "B" is entered into the input text field; if a student presses button_G, the letter "G" is entered into the input text field. More than one letter entry is acceptable as a student's answer: for exmple the entry BBB, BGB within the input field is okay. I have no trouble writing AS3 to accomplish this task, however:
For a student's solution to the input text field to be correct, it has to contain the four values BBB, GGG, BGB, and GBG in any order. I created an array named solution_S with these values. I also have an enter the solution button named enter_btn. The student can check their solution by pressing the enter_btn button; if the input textfield is correct, the quiz moves on to the next frame in my timeline; if it is incorrect, it moves to a different frame in my timeline. How would I enter this actionscript to accomplish this? Thanks much!

var check:Boolean=false;
for(var i:uint=0;i<solution_S.length;i++)
if( solution_S[i].toString()==in_Text.Text)
check=true;}
if(check)
gotoAndStop(...);
else
gotoAndStop(...);

Changing the cursor position in an input text field and Removing leading numeric zeros

Flash8 - AS2
It's good to be back after all these years and thanks for the faithfull folks like kglad, Ned Murphy, Rothrock and all the others who give so much of themselves to make this forum a success!
My Problem:
I have an input text field that is named in the properties box as 'numberOfKids'.
When the program is executed, and a delete or backspace is pressed the input textfield goes blank
and any calculations that use 'numberOfKids' shows NaN.
I have trapped the NaN and undefined so that a numeric 0 shows up instead of a blank.
There are two problems:
First problem:
The cursor is to the left of the zero, so the first number inputted by the user is 10x larger than what they want. 0 becomes 10.
Question: How do I get the cursor to move to the right of the 0?
Second Problem:
When I manually move the cursor to the right of the 0 and input a number, say 4, it shows up as 04.
Question 2: How do I delete the leading numeric zero in the input textfield?
Thanks for the help.
Here's the code I am using:
calculateChildWeight = function () {
if (isNaN(numberOfKids)) {
numberOfKids = 0;
if ((numberOfKids) == undefined) {
numberOfKids = 0;
if (numberOfKids>=0 && numberOfKids<=137) {
numberOfKids = numberOfKids;
} else {
numberOfKids = 0;
if (isNaN(adjustedChildWeight)) {
adjustedChildWeight = 0;
if ((adjustedChildWeight)=undefined) {
adjustedChildWeight = 0;
adjustedChildWeight = Number(numberOfKids*(-100));
//numberOfKids.setSelection(numberOfKids.length, numberOfKids.length);
//if (numberOfKids.length=2 && numberOfKids<10) {
// remove the first character or leading zero
// numberOfKids = numberOfKids;

Thanks Rothrock for being so patient.
I'm lost!
I go back to a brand new flash file to try and implement the textfields as a stand alone test document. I have lost the concept I think.
I created on the stage of a blank .fla file 4 text fields, 2 input and 2 dynamic. I gave them an instance name in the properties box. I use this instance name.text to find the value of the field. I use the parseInt to put that value into a numeric variable for calculation. The results are put to the appropriate textfield.
All seems to work except one of my input text fields. I use the value of this field to calculate:
revisedValue = parseInt(numberOfKids.text);
revisedValue = revisedValue*(-100);
The problem now is that if the numberic '2' is inputted into numberOfKids, numberOfKids.text shows up as 200 and a trace shows up as '2NaN'.
Flash is logical and consistant, I must conform to it but I'm in the dark.
(( Concerning the forum: If I click on helpful, which your posts have been in directing me, does that blank out the possibility of selecting the correct answer in the future???))

How Can i send the data entered in Input text fields to e-mail?

Iam Jennifer, Iam having a doubt in Flash, I hope that you
are going to solve my problem, Iam taking 3 Static text fields as
Name, Age and Country and besides each and every static text fields
i have taken 3 input text fields with different instance names,
when i enter my Name, Age and Country details in the input text
fields and after entering those details if user clicks the submit
button the data should be send to some mail address, is it possible
Im not so good at action script, but i hope that any one can
help me...
Iam attaching the action script code also, please find the
attachment below, the actions are given to button.
Attach Code
Btn.onPress = function ()
mail_lv = new LoadVars();
mail_lv.dummy1 = "";
mail_lv.subject = "Details";
mail_lv.message = "hi";
mail_lv.username = "name_txt".text;
mail_lv.age = "age_txt".text;
mail_lv.country = "country_txt".text;
mail_lv.onLoad = function ()
trace("Sent successfully...");
trace("mail_lv.subject = " + mail_lv.subject);
trace("mail_lv.message = " + mail_lv.message);
mail_lv.send("mailto:[email protected]", "_blank");

The names of your variables, "name_txt", for instance, should
NOT have quotes around them. Use:
mail_lv.username = name_txt.text;
mail_lv.age = age_txt.text;
mail_lv.country = country_txt.text;

How can i validate current row input text field like required.

Hi All,
jdev 11.1.2.1.0
in my use case i have drag drop one viewobject as a adf table. and in table i have also add one extra input text field which is not based on
vo.
now i want to validate current row input text field not null when i commit row.
but when i using required property true. it worked for all row in table. problem is that i want only current row input text field validate not all
thanks,
Manish

When the user tries commit the data by clicking on the button -- For that button, have the logic in the actionlistener method to check if the additional input field is NULL or NOT.
If it is NULL, show an error message using FacesContext.addMessage() API.
Thanks,
Navaneeth

How to allow input text field to accept more than one "specific" answer.

Hi,
I am working for something and trying to create a type-box-based quiz for one of my classes, where an input text field can change it's border color if 2 or more words from an accepted word list is inputed.
For example, Say a list has possible answers: R,G, B, Y for the question "Name 2 colors".
I want to create an input text box where the border of the box will change color if any 2 letters (in the above list) are entered into it.
I've tried setting up a variable NumberSuccesses and setting it so that the number increases by 1 for each letter entered e.g.
if (Ex.text == "R");
NumSuc = NumSuc +1; // the var NumSuc has already been defined earlier in the code
If (Ex.text ''G")
NumSuc = NumSuc + 1
if (NumSuc == 2)
Ex.borderColor = 0x0000FF
but that didn't work.. and I tried doing it with another function which I use for multiple input boxes like if there were boxes A, B, C. I could set up a general function where if the correct answers were entered into A, B, an C respectively, only then will say, a checkmark show up using a
EnableCheckmark (); type function. Not sure how to do it if it's the same text input box though. Also just tried adding it into the same function re.
If (Ex.text == "R" + "G")
Ex.borderColor = 0x0000FF
.. Does anyone know what else I can do?

The solution of Nishu with Evaluation Logic:
//These Are the Possible Answers
var solutions:Array = new Array("A","B","C","D");
function testInput(_inputText:String):Boolean
    //the delimiter could also be a comma, here it is a space
    var inputStringArray:Array = _inputText.split(" ");
    var counter:Number = 0;
    for (var i:int=0; i<inputStringArray.length; i++)
        for (var j:int=0; j<solutions.length; j++)
            if (inputStringArray[i]== solutions[j])
                counter++;
    if (counter >=2)
        trace("true");
        return true;
    else
        trace("false");
        return false;
//Textfield with name input_txt on stage
input_txt.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, answerTxtInp);
// The function that will be called by the event listener
function answerTxtInp(txtEvent:TextEvent):void
     // depending on the possible answers of characters, change the border color
     if(testInput(input_txt.text)){
         input_txt.borderColor = 0xFF0000;
     else{
         input_txt.borderColor = 0x000000;

How to add comma and dollar sign that places automatically in input text field

I have this ROI calculator which has several text input field
on frame one with calculate and reset buttons. When a user enters
numerical values in the text field, and jumping to the next field,
I want the input text filed be updated with dollar sign and with
comma.
Next when they hit "ENTER" key or click "Calculate ROI"
button, all the input text fields on frame 2 as a result of
calculations be updated with dollar sign and comma. I also need
that once the comma sign is assigned then it would not add any more
even if user presses the button. Can someone help me in
this?

If you want to Set the Comma when you Switch to next Text
Field
Use onKillFocus / onSetFocus Functions.
to restrict multiple comma, Before Adding comma use
myText.text =
myText.text.split(",").join("").split("$").join("");
So this will give you the value without Comma and Dollar
symbol, Now add the Comma and dollar.
or you need to use a Flag for onChange Event.
