Showing dynamic text in DW CS5

In DW8, when I have a field from a recordset inserted in a table or form, I get an indicator like {rsPrpducts.prodName} and I can select it and do linking. etc. with it.
In CS5, although the codeview shows the same code, the design view shows a graphic and linking, etc. do not work properly.
In preferences, Invisible Elements, I have {Recordset.Field} set in both programs.
How do I get this to display without the graphics in CS5?
Below shows examples in both programs, and the options I have set:
DW8
CS5, the very same code!
Preferences CS5
Thanks for any help.

<td height="89" colspan="5" valign="top"><p><font color="#FF0066" size="-1" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">what is the text size, colour and boldness of this piece of text.</font></p></td>
Above code is deprecated.  CS5 will not pick up these styles in the CSS styles panel.  Legacy sites are not simple to work with.  They need to be converted to  modern standards.  You do this by stripping the HTML styles from markup  and re-writing styles to CSS.
<p>This is a normal paragraph</p>
Put your CSS styles between your document's <head> and </head> tags:
<style type="text/css">
p {
color: #FF0066;
font-size: small;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
</style>
Or, create an external stylesheet to which your HTML documents are linked like this:

  • How to display dynamic text in flash CS5....

    i am using flash cs5...i created a game but when i m running it...it is  showing a message saying "Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts""
    and i am not getting my dynamic text output.......please hwlp me out!!!!!!

    As the error message says, you need to embed the font(s) that you use in any input or dynamic text object so that Flash will have that font to use when displaying the dynamic text. There are several different ways to accomplish this. Are you using textField objects on the stage, or are you creating instances of textFields using Actionscript?

  • How to show dynamic text in WAD-Template

    Dear BW-Community,
    We are von BW 3.5.
    can someone guide me, how to display a dynamic text (depends on the comparision between two entered variables) in a WAD-Template?
    example: if var1 = var2 then the text should be text1 otherwise text text2.
    Hope this is quite simple as it sounds.
    regards

    Hi,
    I embedded my CSS code in a dynamic page. I use pl/sql to test if the user is public and print my urls for the menu accordingly. Something like:
    <oracle>
    Begin
    if portal.wwctx_api.get_user='PUBLIC' then
    htp.p('MenuPage Title');
    end if;
    End;

  • How to specify "static" or "dynamic" text in Flash CS5?

    Hmmm. Things have moved in version CS5! How would I specify text as "static" or "dynamic"? Can't seem to find the selection in the Properties palette.
    Thanks-

    Should be right at the top of the properties panel. Make sure to select your text box first. Also, change TLF text to classic text.

  • The 'Dynamic Text' option isn't showing up for me in Flash CS5?

    I'm trying to change the properties of a textbox, and only TLF Text and Classic Text is showing up :/

    You first select "Classic Text" in the first drop-down menu of the text properties, then the second drop-down menu will change with the "classic" options: Static Text, Dynamic Text and Input Text.

  • How can i set the dynamic text box to show variable value?

    In AS2, I can make a dynamic text box set a var name, when i
    use button set/change the var value, this textbox can show the
    value also.
    but In AS3, dynamic text box can't add var name. than how can
    i do it now?

    Set an instance name for the dynamic textfield. Then, to
    populate the textfield with the value of a variable, use:
    textFieldInstanceName.text = variableName

  • Showing RSS feed in Dynamic Text box (with hyperlink)

    Hi all -
    I am currently trying to pull RSS data into a project for my first time and am trying to get 3 (potentially 4) boxes filled with rss data that will be updated. So far, I am going with Actionscript 3. So far I have the code below, but it puts data in a listbox. What is the easiest way to put the data in three dynamic text boxes inside a movie clip, so I have one for the title, one for description and one for link (shown as 'read more' text but a link using the url from the rss value)?
    I am really banging my head against the wall on this one and want to get it sorted asap, so any help would be GREATLY appreciated! I have also attached an image to show what I am trying to do:
    I also want to know if it's possible to show rss values only if they exist. For example, my xml feed currently only has 3 items that change, and i will be assigning these to boxes, but is it possible to display a fourth if it exists, and if it doesn't it just shows the first?
    My code so far:
    var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
    loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
    var xml:XML;
    function onLoaded(e:Event):void
        xml = new XML(e.target.data);
        var il:XMLList = xml.channel.item.description};
        trace(il[1]);
             lb.addItem({data:il.description.text()
                                label:il.title.text()}):
    loader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.rssfeedhere.xml"));

    you would create a movieclip (exported for actionscript and class = rssItem) with 3 textfields and the display shown in your message and use something like:
    var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
    loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
    var xml:XML;
    function onLoaded(e:Event):void
        xml = new XML(e.target.data);
        var il:XMLList = xml.channel.item.description};
        for(var i:uint=0;i<il.length();i++){
            var mc:rssItem = new rssItem();
            addChild(mc);
            mc.x = 300*i%2;
            mc.y = 300*Math.floor(i/2);
            mc.titleTF.text = il[i].title.text();
            mc.descriptionTF.text = il[i].description.text();
            mc.readmoreTF.text = ?
    loader.load(new URLRequest(http://www.rssfeedhere.xml));

  • SQL Subscription field shows * only with Dynamic Text Label in SQL query

    We are using Hyperion Analyzer 7.2.x for showing budget and actual data. I have to show this financial data based on the security e.g. person in IT can see only IT dept. data. Hence I want to use dynamic text label <<userid>> for the security based on the person logging in to Analyzer.
    But when I use dynamic text label <<userid>> in the SQL query in SQL Spreadsheet, SQL Subscription field shows * only selection option. Does anyone have idea how to solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    -SV

    Hi
    Okay i know this is a bit crazy way.....but i think this is the solution for your issue.
    Create a report without the where clause (<<useris>>) then add a filter (sql subscription) then you can find all the values that are there in the SQL field (try to increase the query limit it is set to 250 as default) then edit the spreadsheet and add the where clause (<<userid>>).
    This will help you having the filter and the dynamic text label. I think there is an issue when you try to filter it with a where clause.
    Hope it helps.

  • Added dynamic text; How do I stop variable name from showing?

    I am creating a simple game for kids.  On the first page, I added an "input text" field for their first name.  I called the variable firstname.
    When they move to the next page, I used a "dyanamic text" field so I can call them by name on this page.  It works.  However, When I test the game, on the first page, where the firstname is input, it shows    _level0.firstname          instead of just a blank space for them to input their name.
    I know I fixed this in the past and it was something simple, but I can't remember how to do it.  I'd appreciate anyone's help!
    Thanks.

    Beginning with Flash MX (version 6), you assign the text field an instance name using the Property inspector. Although you can use the variable name method with dynamic text fields for backwards compatibility to Flash 5 and earlier versions, Macromedia doesn't recommend this, because you can't control other text field properties, or apply style sheet settings

  • Dynamic text don't show some characters

    hi guys,
    i'm with a problem.. i have a dynamic text in my flash and
    it's reading vars from a txt file, but it does not read some
    portuguese character as ç Ç or accents such as ã
    â Ã Â...
    i tried to embendding theses characters on my dynamic text,
    choosing embed>all and it doesn't work...i already tried to
    write them on the text box and embed>auto fill but it still
    work!!
    am i missing something?
    help me,please!

    Well the characters you mentioned should be in most regular
    fonts as well. They are hardly exotic enough to warrant a complete
    unicode font. I'm guessing the key something else. Of course it
    depends upon what font you are using. But most fonts that come with
    a computer and regular software should have those characters.
    You mention you are reading the vars from a txt file. Try
    this in the testing environment. Test publish your FLA and once the
    text file has been read go up to the debug menu and List Variables.
    Some place there should be the contents of the text file. Do the
    characters show up correctly there?
    If they don't, then the problem is that Flash isn't reading
    the text file correctly and no font will be able to fix that. Be
    sure that you are saving your text file as UTF-8. Flash doesn't
    play so well with other formats and beyond the basic ASCII range in
    text files.
    If they do show up correctly in the List Variables. Then you
    know the problem is with your fonts. As I said most fonts should
    have those characters so post back if you need more help.

  • Show inside dynamic text the title for multiple images on mouseover

    I have 25 animated movieclips dragged on the stage and they have similar instance names for easier manipulation purposes inside programming using loops. The instance names look like this: image0, image1, image2 and so on.
    Each time I go mouseover on one of these unique images I want to show the unique title of that image using for all titles just one dynamic text container named imageTitle.
    I have succeeded to make this work image by image but this would require me to copy paste and modify for each image the following code.
    image0.onRollOver = function() {
        imageTitle.text = "First image title";
        imageTitle.textColor = 0x000000; // setting the text color here
    image0.onRollOut = function() { 
        imageTitle.text = "Choose an image";
        imageTitle.textColor = 0x000000;
    Question: The above code would work but seems redundant to me. Since I have similar instance names (image0, image1, ....,image24), how can I put this code inside a loop or something in order to work for all images without repeating this code 25 times.
    Update: I have added an array to the project that contains all the titles:
    var imagesTitles = new Array("First image title", "Second image title", .... ); 

    imageTitle.textColor=0x000000;
    for(var i:Number=0;i<imagesTitles.length;i++){
    this["image"+i].ivar = i;  // key step
    this["image"+i].onRollOver=function(){
    imageTitle.text = imagesTitles[this.ivar];  // key step used here
    this["image"+i].onRollOut=function(){
    imageTitle.text="Choose an image";

  • Dynamic Text does not show "%"

    Hi,
    I have a dynamic text box that read from external data
    source(text file), but it cannot display "%" character in flash.
    It is not in HTML format, Any advice? Thanks in advance.

    Jimmy...
    In your text file, put the characters \u0025 (backslash,
    U0025). This is the unicode equivalent. For more Unicode, see

    Hope this helps...

  • Dynamic text not showing up under a mask

    Hi All,
    So like many people, I've discovered the joy that you cannot display dynamic text boxes if they are masked.
    After browsing the internet I found a few things to try, first embedding the font, which I have done, and that didn't work.
    The other solution involves setting the mask to a display object, which I've done, sort of.
    I create a Sprite() in code (I use Flex Develop, and never code on the time line), then use the Sprite.graphics to draw the mask, then set my main stage movieClip's .mask property to equal this layer.
    That didn't work either.
    Is there a third option?
    Thanks in advance,
    Tom

    mask removed, the text still displayed, but I'm not sure what you meant by that, I can't see the field for the text itself, just the text, which is fine because it isn't an input box, the textfield itself is part of a movieClip, and I am able to adjust it no problems.
    After some fiddling around and forehead banging against desk I found that if I just drew two boxes at the edges of my video on top of everything and the same color as my background, it would cover what I wanted to be covered and leave the rest visible. Not an elegant solution, admittedly, but the one that I found and that works in the time constraints I have.
    Thanks for trying to help me once again kglad.
    I'll learn to ask the right question one day, I think.
