Textbox.text from php

I can do this:

print “_root.textbox=$myvariable”

but this won’t work:

print “_root.textbox**.text**=$myvariable”

I nedd it to be .text so ican scroll the textbox! any ideas???

you only need to output something like like ‘myVar=$myvariable’, and then use a script like this:


lv = new LoadVars()
lv.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {
_root.textbox.text = this.myVar
} else {
trace("failed")
}
}
lv.load("myScript.php")

hope this helps :slight_smile:

omg! It works! Thank you thank you thank you! I tried something similar but it didn’t work! Thanks again m8!

um… now another problem occurred!
Now that I use .text the html is disabled for the textbox!
oh mannn! Isn’t there any way to enable it?

hehe no problem :wink:

if you’re loading html, then replace this line:

_root.textbox.text = this.myVar

with

_root.textbox.htmlText = this.myVar

:slight_smile:

sounds good but no effect… :-\

are you sure html rendering is enabled?

Am I stoopid? First I didn’t know that htmlText thing (strange) then I saw it wasn’t working with the .text thing so turen the html off (I dunno why) !
ahhhhh I must be going nuts
thx man! =)

lol :beam:

glad it works :wink:
