RE: [flexcoders] Trademark Symbol

[Gordon Smith]

I meant to name my variable trademarkSymbol, not copyrightSymbol. But the code works.   - Gordon   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gordon Smith Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2005 10:24 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Trademark Symbol   You almost had it, but you were missing a semicolon after the 8482.   These three ways work:   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml">       <mx:Script>         var copyrightSymbol = "\u2122";     </mx:Script>           <mx:Label text="Macromedia&#8482;"/>     <mx:Label text="Macromedia&#x2122;"/>     <mx:Label text="Macromedia{copyrightSymbol}"/>   </mx:Application>   The rules are:   The MXML compiler follows the rules of XML and looks for escape sequences starting with & and ending with ;   However, it doesn't know about character names like &trade; and there is no way to declare them. (This would make a good feature request.)   The ActionScript compiler, which handles the parsing inside <mx:Script> blocks, event handler attribute values, and databinding expressions, follows the rules of _javascript_/EcmaScript and looks for escape sequences starting with \u.   - Gordon   -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erik Westra Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2005 1:47 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Trademark Symbol   Just do it the simple way :)   <mx:Panel title="My Company(tm)"></mx:Panel>   Copy the sign from a webpage, or somewhere else and paste it into the string u use as title.   Greetz Erik       -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Malcolm Sent: donderdag 23 juni 2005 7:48 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Trademark Symbol   Hi yo all,   I am new to the Flex crusade (cf over sql background), so here goes with my first question.   How do I get the proper trademark (TM) symbol in Flex?   For example:   <mx:Panel title="My ApplicationTM"></mx:Panel>   Using anything like:   <mx:Panel title="My Application&trade;"></mx:Panel>   OR   <mx:Panel title="My Application&#8482"></mx:Panel>   Doesn't work, and besides this is this not the world of html anymore :-)   The closest I have come is using escape (unicode) characters. For example:   <mx:Script>       <![CDATA[               function myTitle()       {             var myTitle:String;             myTitle="My Application\u00ae";             return myTitle;       }           ]]> </mx:Script>   <mx:Panel title="{myTitle}"></mx:Panel>   But \u00ae is the registered trademark (R) symbol not (TM). I realize that the TM symbol is not part of the ISO 8859-1 character set supported by the flash player.   Is there anyway to get the trademark symbol in flash? IE Unicode characters higher than 256.   Many thanks in advance, Malcolm       -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
