[as] tag hack solution?

[senocular]

how about this, how hard would it be to copy the PHP code into the AS tags and just change the "PHP:" to "ActionScript:" that appears at the top of the code?

[petefs]

you have my vote -- hope it's an easy matter ^^

[CyanBlue]

Hehe... Are you trying to fool vB, senocular??? I think vB will explode because vB won't know what the !#%&*()_+ it should do out of that... :D

Yeah... That sounds good... Can we have it, pretty please??? :)

[dzy2566]

Hm, an intersting thought. Whatever the solution may be, I'm really looking forward to having our formatting back. It's so hard to read unformatted code...........call me lazy :)

[pom]

It's harder to indent it by hand... :/

[CyanBlue]

You call call ME lazy, dzy2566... I don't read the scripts that are not formatted... I need to spend more time to read and understand what their problem is, and I don't want to spend more time on something that can be provided as easy as using any formatting tag... :(

pom... Ctrl + Shift + F does the auto formatting... :D

[pom]

this.onEnterFrame = function () {
trace ("somebody shoot me in the head!") ;
}??

[CyanBlue]

Um... You can shoot me... :D
I meant doing that in Flash and then bring it back to the forum... :(

_global.$echo = function(exp) {
if(_root._url.substr(0, 4) == "file") trace(exp);
else getURL("javascript:alert('" add exp add "')");
};


Note the translation of the quotes...

I can probably impliment the PHP code for AS tags as well, as a hack if ppl wnat that, but ultimately I want to get our old AS formatter going because... well PHP is not AS. Also, we have a NEW AS2 formatter, which will do classes and evrything if we can just get the old one working as a basis!

Anyway, I'll keep on it.

// test scrolling box implimentation
// 1
_global.$echo = function(exp) {
if(_root._url.substr(0, 4) == "file") trace(exp);
else getURL("javascript:alert('" add exp add "')");
};

_global.$echo = function(exp) {
if(_root._url.substr(0, 4) == "file") trace(exp);
else getURL("javascript:alert('" add exp add "')");
};

_global.$echo = function(exp) {
if(_root._url.substr(0, 4) == "file") trace(exp);

};

OK I did some more playing and I think we've got it working now. *fingers crossed*

If anyone finds serious bugs in it please email me jesse@this_site.

[Jesse]

Alright, I had it working perfectly. Better than ever, int he little scrolly box and everything, and then as soon as I posted something,it magically stuffed up. In all honesty I'm about to run a "rm -f *" because of how much time I've wasted on this this morning! I've put in a little something util I have a real chance to fix it. I guess it's better than nothing, but I KNOW it can work, because it damn well was working 20 mins ago. Grrr.

I'll get onto it next week after exams are over.

[Colin Campbell]

Good luck with the exams Jesse :), don't sweat over the AS tags.

[red penguin]

Good luck with exams, sir!

As of this post, the quotes are fixed...

[Jesse]

Yeah I changed the code a little to search for "&quot" instead of """. That fixed it.

[Jesse]

Oh and thx for well wishes :)

[tg]

what? your taking exams jesse?



damn. and here i thought you knew it all by now.

hehhehheh. good luck.

[Jesse]

Haha. I wish I could convince my University lecturers of that as easily! Unfortunately I have 12 hours of examination to look forward to next week :)

[Colin Campbell]

I'm done 1 of my finals, 2 more to go :(

[Jesse]

Good luck to you too mate! :)

[Ricod]

Good luck to the both of you (and other people who have exams too of course) !

[dzy2566]

It's awesome that the AS tags are working again and I appreciate all your work to get them back up. Just wondering if we'll ever get the colors/bold/etc. back eventually too, or is that not in the works? Not trying to be greedy, just wondering. Thanks again Jesse :D

[Colin Campbell]

2 exams down, 1 to go.

I had my Math exam today, I thought it would be tougher than it was, thats always a good feeling :)

[dzy2566]

You must have studied extra hard...............:) I remember how great it felt when exams were all over, but those fews days during exam week, ugh.
