Function.swftextfield

Description

new swftextfield ( [int flags])
</BR >

swftextfield() creates a new text field object. Text Fields are less flexible than function.swftext objects- they can't be rotated, scaled non-proportionally, or skewed, but they can be used as form entries, and they can use browser-defined fonts.

The optional flags change the text field's behavior. It has the following possibles values : <P >

• SWFTEXTFIELD_DRAWBOX draws the outline of the textfield

• SWFTEXTFIELD_HASLENGTH

• SWFTEXTFIELD_HTML allows text markup using HTML-tags

• SWFTEXTFIELD_MULTILINE allows multiple lines

• SWFTEXTFIELD_NOEDIT indicates that the field shouldn't be user-editable

• SWFTEXTFIELD_NOSELECT makes the field non-selectable

• SWFTEXTFIELD_PASSWORD obscures the data entry

• SWFTEXTFIELD_WORDWRAP allows text to wrap

Flags are combined with the bitwise language.operators.bitwise operation. For example,

<?php $t = newSWFTextField(SWFTEXTFIELD_PASSWORD | SWFTEXTFIELD_NOEDIT); ?>

creates a totally useless non-editable password field. </P >

SWFTextField has the following methods : swftextfield->setfont(), swftextfield->setbounds(), swftextfield->align(), swftextfield->setheight(), swftextfield->setleftmargin(), swftextfield->setrightmargin(), swftextfield->setmargins(), swftextfield->setindentation(), swftextfield->setlinespacing(), swftextfield->setcolor(), swftextfield->setname() and swftextfield->addstring().
