Check if input text is the same as text from file.

[Miamii]

Hello, so I have an input text field on the stage, and also button "check". When something is written in the input text, after clicking "check" button , a message "Correct" or "Wrong" should be displayed in a dynamic text field, accordingly, if it the inputed text is the same as the text from file.

The text file is :

content0=Cat
&content1=Dog
&content2=Mouse
&content3=Bear

each frame should consist of one word from text file(layer 1 text input should be "Cat". If it is written in the text input correctly, the message "Correct" is displayed.

I have buttons "Previous word" and "Next word" on stage too. Ofcourse, if, for example, the line &content3=Bear is deleted from text file, the frame for that text input is also "deleted" in the swf movie.

Could this be possible in flash?


The files so far :

InputCheck.fla
inputcheck_words.txt

Hi,

You didn't have any code in the file, but anyways it's very similar to the other file in the way you get the text file and so on.

stop();

var Words:Array = [];
var Words2:Array = [];
var Layer:Number = 0;
var total:Number;

mainText.text = "Layer " + Layer;

myData1 = new LoadVars();
myData1.onLoad = function(Success:Boolean)
{
    if (Success)
    {
        var i:Number = 0;
        while (this["content" + i] != undefined)
        {
            Words.push(this["content" + i]);
            i++;
        }
        myText_txt.text = Words[Layer];
        total = Words.length - 1;
    }
};
myData1.load("inputcheck_words.txt");

function hideButtons()
{
    if (Layer > 0 && Layer < total)
    {
        but_prev._visible = true;
        but_next._visible = true;
    }
    else if (Layer > 0 && Layer >= total)
    {
        but_prev._visible = true;
        but_next._visible = false;
    }
    else
    {
        but_prev._visible = false;
        but_next._visible = true;
    }
}

hideButtons();

but_next.onPress = function()
{
    Layer++;
    hideButtons();
    nextFrame();
    mainText.text = "Layer " + Layer;
    myText_txt.text = Words[Layer];
    message.text = "";
};

but_prev.onPress = function()
{
    Layer--;
    hideButtons();
    prevFrame();
    mainText.text = "Layer " + Layer;
    myText_txt.text = Words[Layer];
    message.text = "";
};

but_check.onPress = function()
{
    if(input.text.length < 1)
    {
        message.text = "Enter a word";
    }
    else if (Words[Layer].indexOf(input.text) != -1)
    {
        message.text = "Correct";
    }
    else
    {
        message.text = "Wrong";
    }
}; 

it is case sensitive too

Hi,

You can remove the code *var Words2:Array = [];*, I meant to delete it, thought I had

I don't see the point of making a new thread for this, instead of just replying to the other one, same project, but hehe anyways.
That's practically almost all the script i made. Try the script fruitbeard modified, if no success, let us now.

PS: Odd , in the .fla there is no code o.O
