Re: FLASH: Textfield problems

[ComposiMo]

Paul, thank you thank you thank you... 


 ok, now there is a new problem... The specific use of this, is an offline 

"application" of sorts... i built a little "mini-app" so that i could quickly 

and easily create a bunch of txt files that will all have the same vield 

names in them... (they will be called as descriptions to pictures)... Anyway, 

is there a way for this "+" thing to be completed automatically, so that i do 

not have to manually type in the + each time i want a space? some thing like:


Eval "TextField5"

    if "any character" = "<space>"

        set variable "<space>" = "+"


or something like that.... i don't know actionscripting too overly well, so i 

have no idea how to write this, but i am hoping that someone out there knows 

this, so i don't have to reach up and hit the + sign every time i want a 

space.


P.S. no server, no other scripting environments.... just creating txt files, 

for a CD.


Regards,


       John Ward
