Embedding Images in a scrolling text box

I used the Flash help files to get the dynamic text box set
up for scrolling via the Property Inspector. I have Multiline
wrapping text and the HTML buttons active. The help files don't
tell you where to put the <img src> tag to reference the
images I need to embed in the text box. I'm not an ActionScripting
expert, though I can do the basics--help!

The code helps a bit, thank you. Where does it go?
The actionscripting panel says I can't apply actionscript to
the text field. Does it attach to the keyframe the text field is
located in?
If I am supposed to put the actionscript in the keyframe the
scrolling text field is located in, how can I set the width and
height of the image, and tell Flash where the image should be
placed in the text field?
Finally, I need to have a row of three images, same height,
different widths, with a line of text above and another line of
text below. How would I do this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Scrolling Text box - won't work in IE

Hey everyone. I'll admit right off the bat that I'm very new
to web design, so I'm sure I've been making some mistakes. I'm much
more of a designer than a coder, but I'm doing the best I can.
I'm wanting to have a scrolling text box embedded on some of
my pages, and have figured out how to do it, thanks largely to
these forums. I've made a CSS tag that has gotten it working
correctly - sort of.
You can see the page in question at
http://www.kylehamrick.com/testing.html
It appears to be working correctly in Firefox. However, in
IE, the text just keeps flowing down onto the page, outside of the
allotted area. What am I doing wrong?
Also, is there a way to make this look correct in
Dreamweaver? Once I add text that exceeds the table height, it
breaks up my page, though it still looks fine in the browser. Is
there something I can do to correct this?
Thanks in advance for any assistance with this. I sincerely
appreciate it.
Any other advice in regards to the page is welcome! Please
keep in mind that I'm very new to this, and it's still under
construction, so don't be TOO harsh... =)
Also, is this all I have to do? It seems that you all have a
way to examine my code and such just by having me post the url, is
that right? Is there anything else you need from me?

Anyone? Sorry, had to give this a bump. Seems it got buried
VERY quickly.
Again, I'd appreciate any guidance you can provide!

Image on top of text box issue

I'm attempting to create my own message window that will appear when a text box is full. I have script in the "full" section of the text box that makes the presence of the image and a few text boxes visible when full. In design view, I have placed the image on top of the text box. However, during testing, when the text box is full, the image appears but the text from the text box below also appears on top of the image. I have tried to setFocus to the image as well, but this didn't help.
What's odd is that if I navigate to a different page and then navigate back, the image appears correctly.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Thank you very much. I didn't even know how to look up the solution.
Now I understand what those buttons do and their usefulness.

Scrolling Text Box question

I'm changing a site for a friend. She wants to add a scrolling text box with a bio of herself on the grid we're already using on her page. The problems I'm having are it's difficult to resize the box once on the grid (you can't) and I keep missing anything that looks like the ability to scroll up and down on the text box. I'm sure I'm missing something which is why I'm here. :-)
Thanks in advance! :-)

check out the overflow:scroll command in the css - I'm not sure how this works with grids, however - but it could be a starting point....
hope this helps

You need to make the text box float left.

Has anyone been able to get a mouse scroll wheel to work with a scrolling text box in authorware?

Has anyone been able to get a scroll wheel to work with a
scrolling text box in authorware? Is there any way to attach the
hardware of a scroll wheel to a scrolling text in a piece? Sure
would make things easier for the reader.

I doubt it. Maybe using the WinCtrls.u32? But after a few
tries years
ago (before the WinCtrols.u32), I'd pretty much given up.

How do i make a scrolling text box?

hi, i'm looking to make a text box that the user can control the scrolling, i've made it how i want it to look already, but i haven't got a clue where to start as to how to make it actually work.
here's how i've got it set up so far, okay this is gonna take some explaining:
i've got the document made up in AS2, the movieclip known as 'Philosophy_tween' is on the main timeline, and inside that movieclip are two more child movieclips, one for the text and another for the scrollbar.
the text movieclip is set to scroll upwards, behind a masking layer using a motion tween on the parent movieclip, whereas the scrollbar movieclip motion tweens (inside itself) the scroller button. look at the attached image.
both motion tweens have a stop(); script at the beggining.
i don't know what to do after this though, so please help, thanks in advance!

i've got the nextFrame and prevFrame scripts working now, i'd only missed the brackets from those functions. i've also gotten the slider to respond to the button clicks of the up and down arrow by setting up a motion tween for the slider, so it actually works, just along with nextFrame and prevFrame functions. i've also put the slider button at the same level as the text movieclip
but what i do still need is to be able to control the slider button directly, so the user can drag it up and down and the text responds accordingly, like you said using the enterFrame function, but i don't really understand event listeners and that sort of thing, yet.

Puting images into dynamic scrolling text

So I have a dynamic text box and it is linked to the UI
Scroll component. How do I put images in so that the image scrolls
with the text?

What i find works is to import the the text into a dynamic
text field in flash. I use notepad to write the HTML (which is to
be loaded externally) and use this HTML to bring in the images,
this way they all scroll with the text in the dynamic text box. So
you could use the <img src> tag in the external text (in
notepad) then import the text into flash using LoadVars() into the
frame where you want the text.
I've used this countless time for sites and stuff although im
having problems getting the text nest into a movie clip (im about
to post for help on that one .....
Not sure how clear all that is to you......

How do I have an image move with a text box?

I need to embed an image within a text box so that when I add additional text in the future, the image moves with the text that surrounds it.
For example, if I have a paragraph of text, then on the following line vertically I have an image, then on the following line another paragraph of text ... When I add additional paragraphs of text above the image, how can I have the image track down to stay between the original two paragraphs of text?

Thanks Zak! I figured that out but now have another problem that I just posted. The app keeps locking up when I try to export HTML or upload my site to the server. Please give me any advise on how to handle it.
Here's my other post:
Hi,
I just upgraded to the latest version of Muse. I made a few changes to my site and I'm trying to export the HTML. I've now tried 3 times and the app locks up at 89%. It completes all pages, but locks up there. When I look into the Muse Export folder, there is nothing there. The window reads "Finishing export" but it stays at that point for more than an hour when I finally give up and force quit.
Any ideas? Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas on how to get my HTML exported successfully?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Just an update. Previously I was attempting to export HTML to the Muse Export folder on my computer. I described what happened above. Now, I'm trying to publish directly to my FTP site. Its doing basically the same behavior where it exports all desktop pages (189 of them) then it locks up. However, the interesting thing is that when exporting to the Muse Export folder on my computer this said it was 89% complete. When uploading to my server, it says its 59% computer when all pages have been exported. Both options result in the app locking up and never completing the export. I did check my site online to see if the pages were really updated. I made a change to the nav bar on the master so I should see that on every page. It is not showing up online yet even though the app says all 189 pages have been exported. Still looking for help, all advice and ideas will be appreciated! I do want to get my updates online.

Here's what I have when it locks up. It sits like this for hours.

How do I place an image inside of a text box, then lock the image

I have the text where I want it, in font, style, color and everything. But there is an image that I need too to go infront of the text and i need it in the text box so that both the image (which already has a clear background), matches the textbox which also too has a clear background.

Copy and paste the image inline.
Or simply overlay it and group the textbox and image.
Menu > Arrange > Group
Menu > Arrange > Lock

Touch 2nd Gen can not scroll text box down

I have a 2nd gen Ipod Touch and want to login to a public wifi which requires accepting a text box Condition & Terms.
It says: Please scroll to the bottom of the terms and click the checkbox to show agreement before clicking on the 'Accept' botton to access the system.
My question is: there is no way I can focus on the text box only and scroll down. Please advise. Thanks,
Link for the screen shot:

Nope, you're done. To get iCloud you need at least a 3rd generation Touch. And, you CANNOT upgrade your 2nd Gen to make it a 3rd Gen..

Working with images – Resizing, Add arrow & text boxes etc

I am using RH HTML for updating our Web application Help from
RoboHelp V3 to V6. It involves lot of images. I found the picture
quality good only using Word in the combination of
RoboScreenCapture.
I need to confirm that the method and steps for capturing
images using Word & RoboScreenCapture will work reliably for
both WebHelp and Printable output in Word. Please review my
detailed steps as listed below and give me your suggestions.
Here are the detailed steps I took for each method:
Starting with Resize & RoboScreenCapture:
1. From our Web application I took the screenshot.
2. I pasted the screenshot in Resize tool and resized it.
3. Opened the RoboScreenCapture, went back to the Resize tool
and by using the Screen Capture Hot key - Cntrl+Shift+R, I captured
the region. The captured screen popped up in the RoboScreenCapture
tool.
4. I drew an arrow on the image and the text box and also
entered the text in the text box. Then I saved the image in the
RoboScreenCapture.
5. Opened up the RH Html. Opened up the Web Help project file
which I am updating and pasted an image in wysiwyg.
Result
The image was not very clear looking in wysiwyg.
In Paint:
1. From our Web application I took the screenshot.
2. I pasted the screenshot in Paint, stretch the image form
100% to 80%. The quality of the image reduced dramatically.
3. Opened the RoboScreenCapture, went back to the Paint and
by using the Screen Capture Hot key - Cntrl+Shift+R, I captured the
region. The captured screen popped up in the RoboScreenCapture
tool.
4. I drew an arrow on the image and the text box and entered
the text in the text box. Then I saved the image in
RoboScreenCapture.
5. Opened up RH Html. Opened up the Web Help project file
which I am updating and pasted an image in wysiwyg.
Result
The image was not very clear looking in wysiwyg.
Finally, with Word:
1. From our Web application I took the screenshot.
2. I pasted the screenshot in Word, resized it. While in Word
I can draw an arrow on the image and the text box and entered the
text in the text box.
3. Opened the RoboScreenCapture, went back to the Word and by
using the Screen Capture Hot key - Cntrl+Shift+R, I captured the
region. The captured image popped up in the RoboScreenCapture tool.
Then I saved the image in RoboScreenCapture.
4. Opened up RH Html. Opened up the Web Help project file
which I am updating and pasted an image in wysiwyg.
Result
Nice & Clear

There's a topic about this on my site that might interest
you.
I recently tried the Microsoft Fax and Image viewer (the
freebie with XP) and reduced the window size dramatically. With a
photographic image it was very good. A quick test suggests it might
be good with text as well.

Scrolling Text Boxes

Hello there,
For my website i wish to create a text box which will detail
alot of information split into paragraphs. I was going to have this
scroll up automatically but i'd rather have manual scroll bars
which allows the user to scroll down the info themselves. How do i
do this using dreamweaver?
Thanks
I need this info quick so if anyone can help i would really
apreciate it.

Sounds like you're wanting to put the text into a div with
fixed width and height, then scroll the overflow. Like so...
<style type="text/css">
#textbox {
width:250px;
height:100px;
overflow:auto;
</style>
<div id="textarea">
..your content..
</div>

Scrolling text box errors in cs4

So i have a scrolling text on a website that im remaking but its utilizing java and for some reason when i moved it over it now says
"KEYCODEWRONG OR MISSING"
and
"NOTICE WRONG OR MISSING"
after the text i add in there its not doing it on the old site but only on the new site any reason why this would be happening?

You can, but it's not very elegant. For one thing, whatever text you have will have to basically be on another webpage addressable by URL in the iframes expression. I guess it would work, though. It's just like having two pages, where maybe one would suffice, you know?
There are some javascript examples that I have come across that would probably work. The HTML tags seem to be unreliable....I have seen some that only work on IE and not for the mozilla based browsers.
Anyways, here's an example of a scrolling iframe....it's the messageboard from my Guestmap...

As you can see...it's not great, but it's workable.
