Hi,
I'm working on a Flash chat application using a .NET server and have been asked
to include hyperlinks in the scroll text and am a little buggered at the moment
. I thought this would be straight simple, make sure the text is being rendered
as HTML and possibly parse qualified web URLs and email addresses to add the
tag information but to my delight doing a simple test in a scroll pane under
does not render it as a link.
For example, if you have:
content.htmlText = "This example shows you how to create a scrolling text
object."
+ "\n\nAll <font color=red>the</font> <a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a
>working parts are here in this scene."
+ "\n\nClick the View Instructions button for a step-by step description of how
this was done."
+ "\n\nClick the Print Instructions Button for a printout of the steps."
+ "\n\nHere's some additional text added just for the effect."
+ "\n\nAnd the last paragraph of text!";
In the scroll pane it renders it as:
<font color=red>the</font> <a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a> working
parts are here in this scene.
Click the View Instructions button for a step-by step description of how this
was done.
Click the Print Instructions Button for a printout of the steps.
Here's some additional text added just for the effect.
And the last paragraph of text!
Instead of what I want:
the Google working parts are here in this scene.
Click the View Instructions button for a step-by step description of how this
was done.
Click the Print Instructions Button for a printout of the steps.
Here's some additional text added just for the effect.
And the last paragraph of text!
So, any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks in advance,
-Steve
