hey…
im about to try to make a message board =)
going to make it with flash php and mysql…
the php and mysql parts i can manage just fine…
but when it comes to the flash im hoping one of yall can help me =)
my php output will look something like this…
user=someone&titel=hello&message=hello world&date=today bla bla bal&
now im gonna loop that out on the page for as many entries as there are…
now for the flash part…
i want to read all the information into arrays…
question 1) how do i read the 4 variables into 4 different arrays…
and what is the command for getting how many entries in an array ( so i know how many times to loop arrays onut onto flash text box)
the output on the page will be something like
posted by:someone
title:hello
message:
blalbalbalblalba
date posted :today bla bla
posted by:someone1
title:hello1
message:
blalbalbalblalba1
date posted :today bla bla1
i want to put all these messages in the same text box ( thinking that would be the best)…
all the help i really need here is
question 2) how do i get flash to jump down a line
thought it was /n but that dont work … and putting html format on and using <br> dont work eitrher =)
question 3)
and i want the title to be in bold. now im wondering if you can format just one word to be bold
ex
boldword=(whatever code is needed to make text string ‘big’ bold)
word1=‘i like’
word2=‘butts’
done=(word1+" “+boldword+” "+word2);
so done if placed in a text box would look lie
i like big butts
thanks
