Cascading Style Sheets

[dniezby]

Anyone had any success with Style Sheets to display Content Pane HTML content?

What are you trying to accomplish ?
Flash CSS support is pretty limited.

I've been looking to use style sheets to format text for a news page.

I was trying to use this script:

PHP Code:

//Load CSS Sheet
var styles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
styles.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void {
    if (success) {
        // display style names.
        trace(this.getStyleNames());
    } else {
        trace("Error loading CSS file.");
    }
};
styles.load("styles.css");


It doesn't work though.

The code you posted is AS 2 syntax. You have to convert it to AS 1 in order to use it.

Here's an AS 1 example that uses the stylesheet class.
Create a dynamic textfield with 'has html' set to yes.

var css_str = '.heading {font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold; }';

var my_styleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
my_styleSheet.parseCSS(css_str);

txt1.styleSheet = my_styleSheet;
txt1.htmlText = "<p class='heading'>My formatted text</p>";
