Using html in action script.

I have a text field but I want to put in an image in the text field. It will not let me load it up so I can view the image on flash.
I have it set like this:
[quote]
background.htmlText = "<img src='http://localhost/background.jpg' />";
[/quote]
Every time I view it, it doesn't give me an error or anything but it will not load the image.
Can someone help me out?

It is set that way.
in flash CS5, I made a text field that is set to dynamic. Under "Character", I selected "<>" in there for HTML format. It doesn't work.
I told you that the image is correct. You can prove me wrong by making a example image, and an example flash file that I can open up into flash CS5 and zip it up and let me see it. I'm telling you, nothing is incorrect here.

  • Invoke an application using mxml or action script

    Hi all
    I am using flex 2.0 beta 3. And i would like to know if any
    method is there to invoke a software using mxml or action script.
    I tried with URLLoader and URLRequest to load and open a
    file, with a hope that the file will open in the default program
    that i configured for that file to open. But i got an error saying
    Stream Error.
    Can anybody guide me to resolve this issue ..

    Here is one possible solution:
    You can use the ExternalInterface (
    http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/flash/external/ExternalInterface.html)
    class to communicate with JavaScript. JavaScript can then popup the
    media player very easily like this:
    http://www.webreference.com/programming/javascript/jf/column5/index.html
    The documentation on the ExternalInterface class has a nice
    example (in the bottom of the page) on how to communicate with
    JavaScript in a browser. Hope this helps,

  • Using  FDM Import Action script to import data from ERPI table "tdataseg_t"

    Hi Experts
    I have extracted data from EBS using ERPI and loaded into the intermediate table "tdataseg_t"
    I am trying to use Import Action script within FDM to extract data from "tdataseg_t" table (where ERPI extract data is stored) as i could not use the normal import script.
    Requirement : I have to restrict the custom 2 dimension based on Account dimension.
    Dim Account
    Account = ???? ( i am struck here)
    If Account = 1000 to 5000 Then
    Custom2 = Right( product , 5)
    End If
    but , I could not find the exact syntax to call the Account dimension from the "tdataseg_t" table.
    Please Advise
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Importing data via a manual script defeats the purpose of ERPi. As it will not provide you an audit trail, drill-through/drill-back, etc.
    Your best bet is to use the default settings by the software. Just because it returns more records than you want is not a bad thing. You can conditionally change/alter the information either in an EventScript inside of FDM or by mapping the un-needed information to IGNORE.
    Thank you,

  • How to use html form actions and methods

    Hi, I want to make a quick contact page using Edge. I used the following code in my creationComplete but had no luck.  Any help?
    var na = sym.$( "email" );
    email.html( '<form action="send_mail.php" method="post"><input type="text" id="email" value="" />' );
    var button = sym.$( "btn" );
    button.html( '<input type="submit" value="Send" />' );

    My understanding from your question is that you would like to programmatically (using LabVIEW) send input to and click a button on an existing HTML website, is that right?
    If yes, then you can use ActiveX calls to embed a web browser into the front panel of your VI and then use its invoke node to input a text to a form or click a button. Another way is to use the lower-level TCP VIs in LabVIEW, but you need to understand HTTP protocols to successfully use this. See below examples to get started.
    ActiveX
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-25396
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-12454
    TCP VIs (HTTP)
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-2230
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3153
    FYI, LabVIEW Internet Toolkit has been deprecated starting LabVIEW 2012, so it is not recommended to build a new application using that.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to use HTML and Java Script files in Portal

    Hi,
    I am trying to access a web application using iViews. My application contains JSP,HTML,Servlets,JS(java script), image files. I am using JSPDynPro to access the JSP files and I am putting servlets in the private/lib folder of the PORTAL-INF dir of Portal project. Now my problem is almost all the JSP files uses the HTML files, JS files and image files. Where can put these files in the portal project dir structure to give access to the JSP files when i am creating a iView for the JSPDynPro componenets in the irj.
    thanks,
    Ashok

    Hi,
    JSPDynpage is the controller, one JSPDynpage can call more than one jsp file according to the coding. Through the JSPDynpage's setJspName() function only you can display a jsp page.
    EX:
    public void doProcessBeforeOutput() throws PageException {
      this.setJspName("logon.jsp");
    if you put the JSPDynpage in the src.core then the JSPDynpage can be accessed only by this application.
    if you put the JSPDynpage in the src.api then other applications can access this component.
    You can put the jsp pages in the pagelet folder.

  • Developing ios/android game using flash and action script

    I'm completely new to this, I have done a bit of research about using flash to create ios/android apps, but one thing really confuses me is,
    should I create my game in flash lite or in air? I know swf format will not be supported, so i will leave that one out...
    If using air format you need to install the air application in your iphone or andriod devices before the game can be played?
    Is it possible not to use air for apps development using flash?
    Since it is somehow non-user friendly as users were prompt to download and extra application before any game can be played...
    thanks for the help in advance...

    You want to use AIR not FlashLite - for iOS the end user doesn't need to install the AIR runtime, on Android they will however. But it's painless...
    You don't need AIR for apps in Flash, but you do need to publish using AIR if going to iOS or Android.
    Be sure to get AIR 2.7 and copy it over 2.6 - CS 5.5 installs with 2.6 which runs much slower on iOS, than does 2.7

  • Newbie here, with button action script issue

    I have just started to scrach the surface with actionscript
    and I have attempted to assign it to buttons. Much to my supprise,
    it worked, sort of... All my buttons require a double click the
    first time you click on them. I was able to put
    this together, by
    using the following action script for all my buttons:
    on (release) {
    ybutton.onRelease = function() {
    gotoAndStop(28);
    So I have 2 questions. What actionscript will give me the
    single click that I am looking for? Also, is there any shortcut to
    making a broad change? In other words, will have to switch out the
    code for every button on 37 frames?
    Thank you

    1: // You needed two clicks because you have 2 onRelease.
    on (release) {
    gotoAndStop(28);
    2: Yes, it'll go fast I would copy the above and paste where
    needed then just change the frame #.

  • TLF on action script 2 ?

    Hi,
    I designed an animation with action script 2 in years ago. now how can I use TLF text in that animation without converting it to action script 3?
    if can't, how can I convert action script 2 to 3 easily?
    Best Regards.

    Seems you can not use TLF in action script 2 as TLF is an action script 3 library...
    We are not the experts about how to convert action script 2 to 3 but we'll post this question to our internal forums. If there is anyone answers this question. I'll let you know.

  • I am trying to reinstall Flash CS4 professional as the action script is not working but now I am getting an error: 2 message when I use the original CD to try and reinstall

    I can't get the original disk to work on a reinstall.  I get the message
    AdobeColorCommonSetRGB
    Error:
    Error 2.
    I teach a class using this program on Macintosh computers running 10.9.5 and the action script is not working.  It will work on any program designed using the 10.8 but if you design any animation on 10.9.5 the action script will not work for the buttons

    You would have to manually delete the color profiles in question... Run the cleaner tool and see if it gets you started.

  • Difference in using the same component made in mxml or action-script

    Hi,
    I made a sample project to show a kind of bug in the SuperTabNavigator component of FlexLib
    In this sample you can see that using the same component (made in both mxml or action-script) can make a difference
    I'm just wondering why ?
    Thanks
    Here is what i've posted :
    What steps will reproduce the problem?
    1. Create a button to dynamically add new tab with icon on a SuperTabNavigator
    2. Click on this button to add new tabs
    What is the expected output?
    - The expected output is tabs added without abnormal behavior
    What do you see instead?
    - Every time a new tab is created the one who had the focus has its content
    (icon + label) moving from the top-left of the tab to its original position
    Please provide any additional information below.
    Configuration:
    - Flex Builder 3 in Eclipse
    - FlexLib 2.3
    Sample:
    (see attached file)
    There is two type of tab, one in action-script and one in mxml
    They both are equal
    - Adding a new action-script tab to SuperTabNavigator works fine
    - Adding the same tab but an mxml one doesn't
    - Adding a new action-script or mxml tab to TabNavigator works fine
    -> meanings that the issue comes with SuperTabNavigator
    - Adding a new mxml tab to both SuperTabNavigator and TabNavigator at the
    same time makes TabNavigator to get the same bad behavior
    Remarks:
    - Tried everything but i'm really stuck
    - Weirdly, removing the PopUpButton correct the issue
    - In the same way if you keep adding action-script tab it automatically scroll to the
    last tab. And if you do the same with mxml tab then it add the tab at the end and
    scroll to the first one.
    => what could be the difference between using action-script or mxml object ?

  • Send data from html to flash action script

    Hi,
    I would like my flash to act differently depending on what
    html page it is on. Can I send information from html code to action
    script?

    Hi,
    Yes you can, by using FLASHVARS. Refer the attached code for
    example. Also you can use Javascript setVariable method of Flash
    object to set values in between i.e. after the page has loaded, as
    in case of FLASHVARS these are sent to flash just at the begining
    i.e. once SWF loads. In the attached exmple i've sent 2 variables
    to Flash one is 'username' and other is 'userId', thse will be
    fetched inside flash movie as _root.username and _root.userId.
    Note: I've added flashvars as PARAM and also as an attribute
    for EMBED tag (used by Mozilla, NS etc)
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • How do I use the button states in an action script?

    In my Captivate 8 project I use smart shape as buttons. The buttons have different images presented dependent on the state of the button. I have also created a simple action script that shows what happens when the button is pressed. When the button has been pressed the normal state of the button appear. I, however, want the down state of the button to remain visible util the user presses another button. How do I accomplish this? Is there variables for the buttons different state or how can I create that?
    BR,
    Madeleine

    When you talk about 'actionscript' do you mean advanced or shared actions? You cannot write actionscript within Captivate, only Javascript. If you use advanced/shared actions they'll be converted on runtime to either Actionscript (for SWF output) or Javascript (for HTML5 output).
    The states in shape buttons are the normal way buttons behave (not only in Flash). If you are indeed using shared/advanced actions, and you want the down state to remain until the next shape button is clicked, you'll have to go the way described by iFlashAppsToo. Create shapes that have the look of the down state, make them initially invisible and group all those shapes on one slide. Add two statements to the shared/advanced action (please do use shared actions, you'll save time):
    Hide Group   so that eventual down mimicked states on previously clicked buttons disappear
    Show Im_Downx    to show the down image for that button

  • Using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

    using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

    Thanks for your swift response.
    That sounds like a good solution, but the code I have on frame 2 is this
    timer = 0;
    countup = function(){
    timer++;
    countupInterval = setInterval(countup,100);
    If I added the same actionscript to frame 3 which has a dynamic textbox with a variable timer attached wouldn't it just put the timer back to 0? What I want is the last known value that was given when it was in frame 2.
    I am thinking of temple run here, I am trying to caculate the total distance(set in the timer variable) from the previous try.
    Hope this makes sense.
