I think this is almost impossible, or at least very difficult. The thing is: I wanted to make a guestbook on my site (inside flash) but my server doesn’t allow me to use php. So the only other way (I think) is to use a remote script-host. So that’s what I did, I found one on scripthost.com. It’s a very simple one, it just changes a html-file everytime a new entry is entered. What I want to do now is to extract all the things that are in the html-file and put them in textboxes. Is this possible?
I searched a little bit and I found that I could use the server side include tags to read a html-file to another html-file (inside a div) and then use javascript to read the div and send it to a textbox in flash. But I can’t seem to use ssi I don’t know why, I never used it before and I don’t really understand the language :crazy: .
lol u have a similar idea as me… why aint there any html textbox in flash… anyway it is impossible to render html within flash itself… u can however use txt files etc to load text into the textbox http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dynamic_scroller.htm
this is the tutorial on it…
Yes, I knew that, and I also know that you can load html-files with it but textboxes have to be set as variables (textbox=…). The thing is, I can’t change this HTML-file and it doesn’t start with something like it.
Maybe I can read this html-file using javascript and put it into a function, so I can use flash to call this function. Possible?
Also: If anyone knows how to use ssi (server side includes) let me know.
By the way, I don’t have to render it, I just need the code, well actually just the text…
