The goal is to drag and then drop text highlighted on an HTML page to a Flash or Flex-based component (or for someone to tell me it is not possible so I won't search/try any more!).
I am presuming based on my limited knowledge of Drag-and-Drop using HTML(and its associated Javascript) and, separately, my experience using Drap-and-Drop within Flex that some amount of scripting will be required on both sides to complete the task. Since I have seen some cool examples of Drag-and-Drop using Javascript and I know Flex 2 enhances the ability to communicate between Javascript and the Flash platform, I assume that there may be new ways of accomplishing this that previously either did not exist or were less excessible than before. If anyone has experimented with them, I am hoping they can share. My ideal scenario would be to highlight text and drag it directly into an TextArea (without HTML formatting would be just fine). My hopefully manageable compromise would be to load a local HTML page that had an HTML-based text field in it and an IFrame. The thought would be I could use ActionScript to pass the Javascript the URL I was interestd in, the Javascript would load the URL in the specified IFrame, I could then highlight the text I wanted, drop it in my HTML-based text field using Javascript/AJAX and then again using Javascript pass it back to Flex. -Mark > -------Original Message------- > From: Manish Jethani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [flexcoders] IFrame Example for Flex 2? > Sent: 10 Feb '06 20:51 > > On 2/10/06, Mark Wales <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Does anyone out there have any HTML/Javascript-to-Flash/Flex examples > > they can share? > > Can you elaborate on that?
