Got another CSS/htmlText flash question. What I've been working with is this:
I've got a screen layout program that allows the client to select background images, and how many columns they want. Then, when any column is selected they get a live input textbox they can put in the text they want for that column. They can select a section of text they want to apply a style. I've got all this working fabulously - ie even with the focus going off because of the combobox. What I'm doing is calling a function that gets the begin..endIndex of the textbox and applies the chose textFormat by setNewTextFormat; it then sends the changed htmlText to the screen's textbox. Well, now I want to change to CSS rather than saving the styles (which will allow me to change things later). I want to be able to select the text ie 'bob says hi' and add the selected CSS stylename such as txt = <p class='"+name+'">" + selectedTextString + "</p>". This is all easy to do the first time - the selected section gets replaced with this and the htmlText gets set. But since the preview box can have OTHER htmlText -- well, if I'm getting the string based on the TEXT of a member; how can I get the correct offset from the htmlText of a member? do a substring with the actual selected string? Is that the only way? _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
