Pass a variable to a text entry field in a URL (was: I feel like it should be simple but)

I think it should be simple, but I'm having a hard time finding how to pass a variable to a text entry field in a URL. I have a text input field ("enter your postal code') and a button that says 'Go '. When the user enters their zip and hit 'Go', I need the postcode, they came to pass in a URL to a new Web site so that they can see the offers in their region. This is a Flash 300 x 250 banner. Can someone help me?

I can download my FLA somewhere and link to it if needed!

Click on the frame that contains your go button and your textfield and paste Panel actions:

go.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, f);

function f(e:MouseEvent):void {}

navigateToURL (new URLRequest ("http://namebrandinsurance.com/auto/newResults.php?zip=" + zip.text + "& submit = submit"));

}

  • Extraction of numbers, no strings of text entry fields?

    Hello

    I have two input boxes that I can type numbers in.  I would like a third entry check box to show the total of the first two.

    I set up a listener to button on the stage to perform a function that adds together when a key is pressed.

    It comes, he puts just the strings together - it ddoesn can't add them

    So, how can I tell Flash that box1.text and box2.text are numbers?

    Box3.text = box1.text + box2.text is not doing.

    Thanks for your time.

    Hi celebrities music

    You will need to get the string to a number.  Something like:

    var firstNumber:Number = Number (box3.text);

    var secondNumber:Number = Number (box2.text);

    answer: var number = firstNumber + secondNumber;

    Of course, you want to make sure that the text in the text field is actually a number and someone was not able to type in a Word.  The best way to do it is NOT to do the textfield a text entry field.  Instead make a dynamic text field and give it a MouseEvent.CLICK event listener.  When someone clicks on the dynamic text input field, bring up a keyboard that requires them to enter the number in this way.

    I have an application exactly like this one where students had to enter a number in a text field to understand the econ issues.  The workflow has something like:

    1. Click the dynamic text field
    2. Bring up the Enter key digital
    3. When the user clicks on a number on the keypad, text matching using a switch statement
    4. Add numbers to text in a string field, that way someone who, between '1', '3' '8' will get 138 and not 12.
    5. With each press of button, update the dynamic text field to show what the user enters
    6. With the user presses the Enter key, then mount this text field in number and store it in a variable of type number

    Hope that helps.  Let me know if you need help with the code for one of these steps.

  • View 2 records text entry fields

    Hello

    New on ADF and want to know how to do a particular task:

    I have 2 lines with 2 different IDs and want to display two records one after the other, I can achieve this by using a table but I want to put the data in the text entry fields?

    FOR EXAMPLE:

    ID name City ZIP code

    1 Fred Bloggs Leeds LS1 2 minutes

    2 Gary Smith Liverpool L2 in 4NP

    is this possible?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can make use of af:iterator. First, create a tree binding based on the data control and use something like this.

               
                        
                        
                            
                            
                        
                        
                            
                        
                        
                            
                        
                    
                
    

    It would show two lines of data. You can adjust the rows property to display the number of lines. If you want all the lines, remove the rows property.

  • Changing the position of the cursor in a text entry field and remove digital zeros

    Flash8 - AS2

    It's good to be back after all these years and thank you for the people of faithfull as kglad, Ned Murphy, Rothrock and all others who give much of themselves to succeed this forum!

    My problem:

    I have a text entry field that is named in the box of properties like 'numberOfKids '.

    When the program is run, and a DELETE or BACKSPACE is pressed input textfield turns off

    and all the calculations that use the "numberOfKids" shows NaN.

    I got trapped in NaN and indefinite so that a digital 0 appears instead of a white one.

    There are two problems:

    First problem:

    The cursor to the left of zero, so the first number entered by the user is 10 x larger than what they want.  0 becomes 10.

    Question: How can I get the cursor to the right of 0?

    Second problem:

    When I manually move the cursor to the right of 0 and a number of entry, let's say 4, it appears like 04.

    Question 2: How to remove the zero digital in input textfield?

    Thanks for the help.

    Here is the code I use:

    calculateChildWeight = function () {}
    If (isNaN (numberOfKids)) {}
    numberOfKids = 0;
    }
    If ((numberOfKids) == undefined) {}
    numberOfKids = 0;
    }
    If (numberOfKids > = 0 & & numberOfKids < = 137) {}
    numberOfKids = numberOfKids;
    } else {}
    numberOfKids = 0;
    }
    If (isNaN (adjustedChildWeight)) {}
    adjustedChildWeight = 0;
    }
    If ((adjustedChildWeight) = undefined) {}
    adjustedChildWeight = 0;
    }
    adjustedChildWeight = Number (numberOfKids *(-100));
    numberOfKids.setSelection (numberOfKids.length, numberOfKids.length);
    If (numberOfKids.length = 2 & & numberOfKids < 10) {}
    remove the first character or no leading zeros
    numberOfKids = numberOfKids;
    // }
    };

    More important answer first: you get two helpfuls and one correct answer per thread. I think that once you give a specific answer a useful, you can't give the same answer. But I don't know.

    First of all, make sure that none of these text fields have a property of vars set.

    Also, you don't need to do it in two steps: revisedValue =-100 * parseInt (numberOfKids.text)

    As you read the value of your textfields of entry by using the text property, you also assign the value of the more dynamic by using the text property. That's what you do, right?

  • Average click boxes, and text entry fields are noted

    I create several CBT intended to show users how to navigate a new software. When I record, I choose the demonstration and training modes. For the part in training mode, I have several click boxes, and text entry fields. At the present time, when the user clicks on or between text, it has to click in the right place or enter the correct answer to move forward, otherwise a failure caption appears that says something to the effect of 'should have clicked here, please try again.' They try again and go to the next slide. When the training section is marked, everybody gets 100%.

    I was wondering if it is possible to create a user click in the wrong place or enter the wrong answer and still be able to advance to the next slide. So, not everyone would have a 100% automatic.

    Thank you!

    Mary

    P.S. I should also mention that I am using Captivate 4.

    Hello Mary,.

    As I wrote in my first response, simulation training is not intended to be marked. You should really start with a simulation of assessment to avoid having too many change thereafter.

    Have created a lot of assessments used in examinations (do not use an LMS, but this is not necessary) and my students would have been very happy if they could all have scored 100%.

    Enough joking. How you have configured the settings for the click boxes, text entry boxes, buttons? I give them only 1 attempt, never show failure, success, or legends of suspicion. As both actions for success or failure, I put in 'go to the next slide. The evaluation progresses so what was the action of the user, correct or incorrect. And the score will be awarded only if the user has performed the correct action. It works fine, really. If some actions need to be repeated several times, sometimes I will put the note of some of them to 0.

    Really think you can change the training simulation to work as an assessment, in the future it would be best to start with the last mode, possibly in combination with a demonstration or a training simulation.

    Does that help? My assessments are in Dutch, otherwise I could send you an example.

  • Text entry fields

    Hello.
    I have a clip that contains an e-mail form with text entry fields. This MC is then added to another clip which is then added to an another MC. When I test, text entry fields are displayed. The cursor changes to allow the input text, but you can not see the text and can't even see the white text boxes. Something that happens when the MC e-mail form is added to another clip, when you test the form e-mail MC on the main timeline, I have no problem.

    Help please as it is doing my head days.

  • How to show that a text entry field is selected.

    Hello
    How can I show that a text entry field is selected when _focusrect = false; and I use flash lite.
    When the text input field is selected, I want to change is the border color or show a shape... something like that or even the color of the text.

    If anyone is interested, the answer is:

    When the field is developing the text will be empty
    kword.onSetFocus = function(oPrevFocus:Object):Void
    {
    KWord.Text = "";
    }
    When the update go away text will be keyword
    kword.onKillFocus = function(oNewFocus:Object):Void
    {
    KWord.Text = '- key word -';

  • How do I Center a text entry field can be single or multi-line?

    I have created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and have almost everything I like.  One of my latest problems trying to get a text in a field of centered text.  The entrance is sometimes a single line and multi-line sometimes.  If I put in place for multi-line entries are centered, then the single line looks like offshore... and vice versa.  Is it possible to have the centered text automatically in the text field single or multi-line?

    Unfortunately, there is no way to set up a field so that the text is guaranteed to be centered vertically in both cases. If you set up so that the rich text formatting is enabled, it is possible for a user centered vertically, but this isn't something you can preconfigure so that it remains in effect when the field is cleaned. For a user to do, with the emphasis placed on the ground that they would have to display the toolbar properties (Ctrl + E), click on the "more..." "> paragraph > alignment > intermediate text [button]

  • JavaScript function to exchange the values of two text entry fields

    Hello

    I am a beginner APEX with the first application of the APEX. This app has a 22 page to enter data for a graph edge. There are two P22_LINK_NODE_A, P22_LINK_NODE_B text input fields.
    Sometimes it is necessary to toggle (swap) the values of these two areas.
    To do this, I added a button 'toggle_A_B' HTML and a Javascript function.

    But... it does what it is supposed to make :(
    By clicking on the button seems to send the page to the server, although this should not be the case... and the values of the fields P22_LINK_NODE_A, P22_LINK_NODE_B do not change.

    I didn't expect that everything goes right on the client side.
    Is it normal that the browser is trying to send the page?
    Do I need to implement something on the side Server? (process, branches,...)


    The "toggle_A_B" a button attribute HTML button: onclick = "toggleNodes (); »
    Redirect Optioanl of the button is set to "no target". (behavior is the same with "redirecting to page 22")

    In the "HTML Header" page, there is the following Javascript function (which works find in a non-Oracle-APEX HTML page).

    < script type = "text/javascript" language = "JavaScript" >
    function toggleNodes() {}
    var x = document.getElementById("P22_LINK_NODE_A").value;
    var y = document.getElementById("P22_LINK_NODE_B").value;
    document.getElementById("P22_LINK_NODE_B").value = x;
    document.getElementById("P22_LINK_NODE_A").value = y;
    }

  • Apply css to a text entry field... doh!

    Hello
    A few years ago, I read that a created text field dynamically, which makes a type "entry", is more a type of entry when css is applied to the text field. (this is to say that you cannot type in the field more)
    This is the case even in FlashCS3 or is there a workaround?

    See you soon
    _C

    I was wrong. You cannot use an external css file with an input textfield. You can use the internal text formatting. You can also use an xml file to load the formatting information and then read that data in a textformat object. I never do it, but I guess it's possible.

  • clearing text entry field values

    version 12.1.3

    I have three fields of research (input text) on a search page. All fields are mutually exclusive, that is, a user can search only by emp_no, dept_id, or job_code.

    The problem that I am trying to solve is when a user searches for emp_no, gets its result back then decides to search by dept_id or job_code and navigates to dept_id or job_code.

    I would like to have the field previously sought to reset/clear. What is the way to do it?

    the correct would be var2.setValue("");

  • reset of a text entry field?

    Hey, I'm working on a quiz where essentially you see 3 pictures that reflect a particular continent, and you answer with what continent you think it is.

    It works very well with the first response of "Australia", but when I go to the next question whose answer is 'Europe', he does not accept anything but Australia, how do I solve this

    clarification (answerTxt is the input area) and (resultTxt2, this is where it is said good or bad)

    Heres all the code I have for now,

    answerTxt.addEventListener (Event.CHANGE, testAustraliaText);

    function testAustraliaText(evt:Event):void {}

    var response: String = "Australia";

    If (answerTxt.text is {answer.substr(0,answerTxt.length)})

    resultTxt2.text = ' come ON you can do it! "

    if(answerTxt.Length == Answer.Length) {}

    resultTxt2.text = "that's right!"

    }

    } else {}

    resultTxt2.text = "incorrect: ("; ".

    }

    }

    Stop();

    next_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playClicked);

    function playClicked(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

    gotoAndStop ("europe");

    }

    Thank you!

    What you want to do is to make your code more genericx and use a variable outside the function reassign you to each new image.  The code that you have demonstrated should only be in image 1 on a layer which extends along the timeline and should be modified to be...

    Stop();  It is an order of chronology, not a coding command

    var response: String = "Australia";

    var response: String = "Australia";

    If (answerTxt.text is {answer.substr(0,answerTxt.length)})

    resultTxt2.text = "that's right!"

    }

    } else {}

    }

    }

    next_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playClicked);

    function playClicked(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

    Then on the following frames you would...

    answer = 'Europe '.

    section 3:

    answerTxt.text = "";  erase the previous answer

    response = "Asia."
