Insert JQuery .html into text field nested inside of symbol

This is one of those, 'it should be so simple....so of course, it's not' question.
Got a nested symbol. Rather simple one. Inside the symbol is a background rectangle and a text field. When I click a button, it should insert the HTML I give it from the click event.
Now initially I did this by just using the text field by itself. No nesting. This is the code:
sym.$("copy").html("Edge Rocks!");
OK, success! The text loaded just fine.
Now let's insert that text field inside of a symbol. And let's call that symbol 'content'.
Now I try....
sym.$("content").$("copy").html("Some new text");
Result? Nothing.
Tried using stage instead of sym and even added a var stage = sym.getComposition().getStage() statement before that. Nope.
Yea, they don't make it easy. So what's the solution?
Here's my example file.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/5n1ehhsp7r3rbt6/text.zip?m
BTW, ran this in Firebug's console. No errors.

Yes and no, Elaine. Kind of confusing but if the button is directly on the stage, that code works. However, if that button gets nested inside of its own symbol, the code no longer works and a JS error appears in console.
So in other words, the button and the text field are nested inside of symbols, but not the same symbol. So it's a question of the path being used.
I tried switching sym to Stage to no effect.
Redid the test file and uploaded it to Dropbox:

Insert Current Date into text Field

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows how to insert the current
date into a text field using ASP.NET C# page. When the page loads.
Or better still insert current date into my database when the
page is updated. using the insert Server behavier.
I would be very greatfull for any help.

To assign it to a text box you couls use the following in the
onload
function
textbox.Text = DateTime.Now.toString;

Insert File Path into Text Field

I am trying to create a text filed at the bottom of a form document that will automatically input the file path (e.g.. C\:Folder\File) of the document itself after the document is saved. I've looked at a few Scripts but nothing seems to be working. I'm assuming it will look something like this on the "postSave" option:
this.rawValue = event.target.path.replace(event.target.documentFileName, "");
I am a very novice programmer so I have no idea if this is even close to right.

Apparently some of my search parameters were off. This question has already been answered before. If anyone comes looking here, this is a link to the page with the answer.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4007317#4007317
Enjoy.
FYI: here is the code I used for the text field.
Inspection.TextPage.Bottom.End.Directions.File::preSave - (JavaScript, client)
this.rawValue = event.target.path

Data type mismatch when inserting into text field

Hello all,
Using VB script and ASP.
I have a page that inserts into a field (casenum) in a table (clientsw) in a database. The field (casenum) in the table is data type TEXT :
I create a recordset and then an insert statement which the following is part of:
Code to insert the casenum into the field
rsClients("Casenum")=Right(Date(),2) & "E-100" & rsCasenumber("countervalue")
It inserts a number like 09E-1004500
I then have code that takes that string and passes it to the next page as a variable
Session("UserID")=rsClients("CASENUM")
response.redirect "done3.asp"
When it gets to the next page it is assigned as UserID
Dim svuserid
svuserid = "0"
if (Session("UserID") <> "") then svuserid = Session("UserID")
%>
My information inserts into the database exactly as I want it, but when it gets to the next page I get an error that is displayed that says the following:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e07'
Data type mismatch in criteria expression.
/done3.asp, line 16
My code on the second page is as follows:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%>

<%
Dim svuserid
svuserid = "0"
if (Session("UserID") <> "") then svuserid = Session("UserID")
%>
<%
set rsClients = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rsClients.ActiveConnection = MM_connNewdatabase_STRING
rsClients.Source = "SELECT * FROM CLIENTSW WHERE CASENUM=" + Replace(svuserid, "'", "''") + " ORDER BY CASENUM"
rsClients.CursorType = 0
rsClients.CursorLocation = 2
rsClients.LockType = 3
rsClients.Open()
rsClients_numRows = 0
%>
Line 16 is the one that says rsClients.Open()
If I take the concatenation out of rsClients("Casenum")=Right(Date(),2) & "E-100" & rsCasenumber("countervalue") and have only rsClients("Casenum")=rsCasenumber("countervalue") and change the table field to number, I don't get the "datatype mismatch error"
What do I change to enable me to leave the above statement concatenated and insert into the table correctly and complete the stuff on the next page?

>This is an access database, varchar is not an option for a datatype.
Sorry. In another thread I thought you mentioned using SQL Server
>I changed the + signed to ampersands instead and it doesn't make a difference.
I didn't think that was the problem. I was just pointing out that it's a bad practice. If you use the '+' on two strings that can evaluate as numeric, it will actually add rather than concat them.

Cannot insert Chinese character into nvarchar2 field

I have tested in two environments:
1. Database Character Set: ZHS16CGB231280
National Character Set: AL16UTF8
If the field type of datatable is varchar2 or nvarchar2, the provider can read and write Chinese correctly.
2. Database Character Set:WE8MSWIN1252
National Character Set: AL16UTF8
The provider can not read and write Chinese correctly even the field type of datatable is nvarchar2
I find that for the second one, both MS .NET Managed Provider for Oracle and Oracle Managed Data Provider cannot read and write NCHAR or NVARCHAR2 fields. The data inserted into these fields become question marks.
Even if I changed the NLS_LANG registry to SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.ZHS16CGB231280, the result is the same.
For the second situation, only after I change the Database Character Set to ZHS16CGB231280 with ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET statement, can I insert Chinese correctly.
Does any know why I cannot insert Chinese characters into Unicode fields when the Database Character Set is WE8MSWIN1252? Thanks.
Regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,
First of all, I am not familiar with MS .NET Managed Provider for Oracle or Oracle Managed Data Provider.
How did you insert these Simplified Chinese characters into the NVARCHAR2 column ? Are they hardcoded as string literals as part of the SQL INSERT statement ? If so, this could be because, all SQL statements are converted into the database character set before they are parsed by the SQL engine; hence these Chinese characters would be lost if your db character set was WE8MSWIN1252 but not when it was ZHS16CGB231280.
Two workarounds, both involved the removal of hardcoding chinese characters.
1. Rewrite your string literal using the SQL function UNISTR().
2. Use bind variables instead of text literals in the SQL.
Thanks

Neat example. :)
Try this.I did and was at first confused because I expected the code to arrive on-screen looking like the screen-shot at the page. Then it occured to me to type some text including a smiley, and it changed to the icon as expected.
For other people like me who are not quite very clever, how about adding an 'Instructions' section, or initializing the JEP with instructions?

How to copy paste a table structure from word document into Text Field [field format Rich Text]

In our current implementation we have a Blank page with Text Field [field format Rich Text] on generated PDF Document.
Once the PDF document is generated, user can copy paste content form any word/rtf document to into the Text Field.
Pasted content retains all text formatting [Bold, Italic, Underline, Indentation] except the Table format. Text Field is removing table metadata from the content and converting it into plant text.
Is there anyway to copy paste table structure as it is from word document into Text Field?

Hi,
I don't think you can! While you can paste formatted text into the rich text field, the table metadata means nothing to the textfield.

Script to insert file name into keywords field of same file

Hello,

I found this topic from Mike Hale http://www.ps-scripts.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=1330
It's possible this script to change this in such a way that it does this:
"script to insert file name into keywords field of same file"
Thanks and best greetings

How to insert a value into a field of binary type?

I've been using Oracle for a while now but never dealt with BLOB

Any suggestions would be very appreicated.
Thanks.

pls used the loadfromfile procedure which is in the DBMS_LOB
package to insert the data from external os file into blob data

It sounds like what you are trying to do is edit the choices in a likert field to something other than the default radio button. This is not something that you can do in Formscentral at this time.

Yoga 13 MSIE10 can't type into text fields

New machine Feb 2013 used exclusively in laptop mode. Has been great overall but right out of the box I could not type text into any form fields using Internet Explorer 10. What an intro to Windows 8! Discovered I can type text in notepad, then copy and paste it into fields but cannot enter it directly. This was happening with the factory installed software so if it's a third party app conflict it's one that's original equipment. Thankfully Chrome works fine, but sometimes I need to use MSIE and am quickly reminded why I can't.
Google and Lenovo forums are mum on this subject. Some suggestions pointed to SFC /scannow, which came up with a litany of things it couldn't fix. Enhanced protected mode in MSIE also did not help. Didn't appear possible to reinstall MSIE (where's the DOJ when you need them?) What's next? Thank you all for your assistance.

hi dserdu,
Welcome to the Forums.
Are you having this issue on the desktop version of I.E. or the Metro version?
- if the issue only happens on the metro IE, try to open the Desktop I.E. > press ALT+T > choose Internet options. On the Internet Options, go to the Programs Tab, set I.E. to Always and check the box "Open Internet Explorer tiles on the desktop"
- Link to picture
Alternatively, if the issue is compatibility between the website and the I.E. versions, you can run I.E. 10 in compatibility mode or on a lower version (i.e. I.E. 9, I.E. 8., ...etc.). To do this:
1. Open the Desktop I.E. and press F12
2. On the developer tools, choose Browser Mode IE 10 and choose an I.E. version (i.e. IE 9)
- Link to picture
3. When dnoe, press F12 again and observe if you can now type into text fields.
Let me know your findings
Regards

Insert ImageReady HTML Into Page

I created a very cool navigational graphic with remote
rollovers, all sliced up and ready to go. I did the standard 'Save
Optimized As...' and have an HTML file with a subfolder of graphic
image slices.
Now I want to insert this HTML into a page and it won't do
it. I even downloaded the exchange extension for this, but that
extension was created back in 2000 and apparently it doesn't work
(you get an error if you try to insert it). You can't use the
Insert Fireworks HTML either because it says it's not a fireworks
doc and rejects the insert.
OK... now why is it the best image editing software is not
compatible with the best web design software..... when they are
both owned by adobe now? suggestions other then reslicing
everything all over in fireworks?

Copy and paste? It shouldn't be hard....

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.

Can't have both _alpha control and html in text field?

I have a dynamic text field "text_mc.myText_txt" within a
movieClip. I want the text to fade in and out using the Tween
class. I also want it html formatted so I can apply a stylesheet.
What I see is that in order to have the tween work, the field must
have the text imbedded. But by imbedding the text, the html styling
won't work. Is there a work around for this?
thanks

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.
