is there a way to get the index of the html text field cursor position

I'm working on a block of text as MC with 'insert text at position X' and 'Find and replace' can someone tell me how to find the index of an html text field cursor. Selection.getBeginIndex (), Selection.getEndIndex (), Selection.getCaretIndex () as far as I know these methods only work with text and not htmltext.
What I'm trying to do, it's affecting different parts of the chain to the variables so that I can combine in order to restore my html string.

ray1872:

If I understand correctly, you want the corresponding position in the
another index of the caret htmlText property (who, like you, has no on the)
position in the plain text of the textfield content version).

Here's how I'd do. It is perhaps easier or more effective
way (using objects XML etc.), but I don't know it. You could conduct all
your search string in plain text and then convert the result of
the positions of html. I didn't build this to accept negative parameters
for the parameter pos (for example, end of string towards the back), but the
function could be adapted to do this also if necessary. The test data is
not good html from a text field, but it does not really matter what he
is as long as its formatting correctly. It separates only tags of
content to allow apples to apples comparison.

some test data
var testStringXML = ""Hello I can't tell you hOE happy I mod.'; "
var undecoratedString = Hello "I can't tell you how happy I am.";

the conversion function
function findDecoratedPosition(pos:Number,_xmlString:String,_test:Boolean):Number {}
anything between '<' and="" '="">' should be excluded from the search in plain text.
create a table of elements of array (n = 2), consisting of tag and then plain text
requires xml/html properly put in the form
var tempArr:Array = xmlString.split (')<>
for (var aa = 0; aa
tempArr [aa] is [aa] tempArr,.split(">").;
}
remove the first and last elements in the new array (they are empty)
tempArr.pop ();
tempArr.shift ();
find the location of corresponding plaintext and calculate the position "decorated."
var retPos:Number = 0;
var posCount:Number = 0;
for (var aa = 0; aa
retPos += tempArr [aa] [0] .length + 2 + tempArr [aa] [1] .length;
+ 2 allows you to lack< and="">
posCount += tempArr [aa] [1] .length;
If (posCount > pos) {}
return (retPos + (pos-posCount));
}
}
out of range
Returns - 1;

}

test code:
for (var aa = 0; aa
var altPos = findDecoratedPosition (aa, testStringXML);
trace (undecoratedString.charAt (AA) +"position" + aa + "in clear corresponds to the position" + altPos + "in decorated version [" + testStringXML.charAt (altPos) + "" "]" ");

}

  • Is there a way to get the HTML code of my Muse whole site?

    I posted this question earlier, but I have not received a solid answer on "How can I get the HTML source code to my site."

    That's what I did:

    I chose "Export to HTML" for my site in Muse CC 2014, but I gives me a folder with several items inside.

    Here's my question: How can I get the HTML on my site in order to be able to paste my site in an HTML editor and upload it to a site?

    I need to download my site in the HTML of a Web site editor. I know that I can use a text editor to get the HTML code for the site, but I don't know how to get the HTML of "my site." When I export to HTML, I get only one file with content inside.

    What I need is just the HTML source code for the 'whole site' I did so that I can paste the site I created in Muse in a HTML editor.

    Thank you!

    I see, you will not be able to use the Muse like this. You must be able to have the full html of tact folder structure.

    The only way you would be able to do would be to copy all of the HTML files and create an exact structure like it on your server. Your online system probably who can't stand by the sounds of it.

    Product keys are bit-agnostic - they don't care if it's 32-bit or 64-bit.

    However, cannot legally use the recovery disk from one computer to a different constructor machine - as other licenses are not properly paid..

    There is nothing nonetheless to try all possible variations on the absence of character (there are only 25, after all the )

    Other than that, your best option is to contact the manufacturer and order a set of recovery disc for the machine. I do no download available for Vista with SP2 - but you can download Vista with SP1 and create the disc.

    Guys,

    Is there a way to get the names of the currencies of the members. I don't see any VB API function to do this. How can I get it?

    See you soon,.
    PM

    Mikki, if you want to just take one of your dimension of 'Country' and see what the currency is associated with him, call it EsbGetMemberInfo or EsbOtlGetMemberInfo will do (at least, according to the docs, do not remember having ever done).

    Only valid in > = 11.1.2. but if you export the outline to XML go MaxL, information is here too.

  • Qosmio F30: Is there a way to get the remote to work directly with built in receiver

    My remote control Media Center only works when I plug the Receiver USB on my Qosmio F30 yet will work directly to the laptop with the vista media center pre program.

    Is there a way to get my remote to work directly on the built-in receiver?

    Steve.

    Hi Steve

    There is unfortunately no way to do it. Qosmioplayer is also part of the media offered by this book, and as you know this small Linux based application runs without booting the operating system. Due to this USB port can not be used (external receiver) and because of this one way remote control with Qosmioplayer is infrared receiver window.

    I'm not a technician and can explain you why this little infrared window is not used with the operating system running but, I'm sure, there must be a technical reason for it. Anyway, there is nothing to do, and you have to live with it. :(

    I hate to be "Clippy" (or is this Clippie?) of XP and I would like to know if there is a way to get the old Office Assistant in Win7.

    They were actually disabled in 2001 with the implementation of 'Microsoft Office XP' and completely deleted for good at the end 2002 with the release of Microsoft Office 2003.

    You can restore to 2003 with some changes to the system registry and the replacement of prudent file, but it is not supported.  And this can be done at all in Office 2007 with impatience.

    If I read you correctly, you mean if a computer is are not nested in other

    Comps.

    If so, then there is no API for this list "used in". you will need to

    read the draft and check the layers of each model and compare the source.

    Start by getting the project item for the model you're looking for

    using AEGP_GetItemFromComp().

    then analyze the project with AEGP_GetNextProjItem(), check the type of each element,

    and if it's a model to digitize its layers using AEGP_GetLayerSourceItem().

    is the source of the layer with the source of the model and you will know if it is

    used here.
