Looks like you´ve created the textfields on the same level. Create the
fields like this instead: 
_root.createTextField("mytext"+[i], this.getNextHighestDepth(), myX, 0, 100,
30);

Ämne: [Flashcoders] TextFileds not receivign data?

Hi guys,


I want to create as many text fields (which eventually I would like to 
turn into buttons) as the length of an array. I also want to use the 
content of the array to populate the text of the fields created 
dynamically. I have tried everything I know but ....all I seem to get is 
one filed with the lasat item in the array, sheesh!

I've gone absolutely mad on this one (newish to actionScript, I am!) but 
can anyone tell me what  I am doing wrong here? I could do with a 
helping hand or seven =:-)



var myTxt:Array = new Array("branding", "news", "about us", "print", 
"marks", "contact");
var myX = 430;
var menuArray:Array = new Array();
var ySpacing:Number = 90;
//

/*****************create  textFields**********************/
//
//

for(i=0; i<myTxt.length; i++) {
    _root.createTextField("mytext"+[i], 1, myX, 0, 100, 30);
    myId = _root["mytext"+[i]];
    myId._y = ySpacing;
    ySpacing += 40;
    //       
    trace(myTxt[i]);            //the trace works, it list all tyhe 
lements in the array but
    myId.text = myTxt[i];  // this one in not producing the appropriate 
results
    //
    myId.border = false;
    myformat = new TextFormat();
    myformat.font = "Verdana";
    myformat.size = 14;
    myformat.bold = true;
    myformat.color = 0x555555;
    myformat.align = "right";
    //
    myId.selectable = false;
    myId.setTextFormat(myformat);
    //myId.text = myTxt[i];  //tried putting it at the end but no dah!
    //
}
