At the instance or global level of an mxml file, you can only
initiate variables to simple values. “richTextInstance” does not yet
exist when you are trying to access the text property value, thus
the error. Declare the variable as you are, but wait to initialize
the value by using a ceeationComplete handler.
Now, mx:Form is just a layout container, and won’t process the field
data for you in any special way. You will need to get the value
from each form item control individually, and build the string you
want. (or, if the form changes update a model, use the model.)
Right, so what I had built thus far is:
private var mailMe:String = "mailto:[email protected]?subject=answers&body=
";
private function sendEmail():void
{
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(mailMe + unNaturalText_1.text +
unNaturalText_2.text),'_self');
}
It's working well now except that there's no separation between each
text block from each TextInput instance in the email output. I'm
trying to put each text block in its own paragraph. I've tried
inserting \n and \r in various combinations with + and the .text
instances. None of those thus far works to separate the text blocks
into their own paragraphs. What am I missing?
Is there good reason to use a model for this situation?
Tracy, I appreciate your patience, persistence and teaching.
