[RESOLVED] Wizard 666 clone - Text box question

[scheletro]

Hi

I made a LISA or wizard 666 Clone, do you remember that old game that used to run in OS2, A virtual ouija board in wich the user cheat his friends making them believe LISA answer all the questions

Maybe you know the new version

Well, mine is almost the same, with the difference that in mine I made a little bit more creepy layout

I was wonder....
Is it posible to have a flash runing and make the text box I want active?
I mean, like in yahoo, you open yahoo and when you finish the loading the cursor actuvates the search text box, so there is no need to click on it

I wont do it because in some browsers is necesary to click on the flash to activate it, so I wont need to make the text box active, I just wonder if its possible to make it active when some one load my flash, just to start writing when it finish the load

NOTE: Im planning to make an english version of LISA, but if you want to try mine is here

In case you want to try it, clic on the first text box and open the answer with ":" so you can put the answer and nobody will see it, they just will see "lisa, por favor contesta" (lisa, please answer) and close your answer with "." after that clic eny key just to finish the fake sentence, if you dont do it you can write what ever you want in the box

After you put your answer just click on the second box and type your question, then press enter and surpise, if someone doesnt know these tricks in the 3rd try he will have a scary surprise

Try

Selection.setFocus("txtboxname");

Yeah, the command is setFocus(nameOfTextBox). Check out the info in the help file.

Work just perfect, thanks guys !!!

Do you think this also will help to make the flash active with out clicking inside the flash like in some browsers to make the game active?

No. You need to use something Adobe calls Active content meaning the swf is embedded into html by javascript:
