Rich Text Editor -- convert the text into HTML format
Hi
I am using a rich text editor in flex 3.6
I have to send the HTML formatted text to the backend service which uses
PHP. There the code is used to create pdf. Conversion from textformat to
html tags is the work which I have to do. Currently I am trying to do it
using regular expression. I am replacing the textformat tags with html tags
like
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"> ---> <HTML>
<li>ere</li><li>ere</li> --> <ul><li>err</li><li>ere</li></ul>
Is there some library or functionality which does it automatically?
Thanks
Nitin Gopi

I think you can either create a new ConversionType (and suitable
interface, exporter class), or look into transforming the results of the
passing the XML type flag to the existing exporter.
I'd probably go with the later. You may get lucky and not even need XSLT...

Re: AW: Textinput in HGroup -> width
Posted by Alex Harui <ah...@adobe.com>.
That may work in many cases, but it looks like he has an Hgroup with a
button on the right, so I'm not sure it will work here.
Setting textInput's width="100%" should work. You may also need to add to
TextInput a minWidth="0" or some useful small number.

Hi Frank,
well I assume you have a component that contains the Input field. If you want the Input field to expand to 100% of the parent but not blow up the parent, using right="0" and left="0" instead of width="100%" should do the trick.

thanks,
do you mean the HGroup or the textinput where not to set the width?
the parent of the HGroup is a VGroup.....
left and right in a HGroup (VGroup) works???

Hi Frank,
Instead of width="100%" set left and right to 0 ... at least this is how I usually do it.

Betreff: Textinput in HGroup -> width
Hi,
with this mxml the TextInput is too large
also if i set the width of the TextInput to 100%
how can i tell the textinput to take only as much space as available (in
the parent of the HGroup)?
<s:HGroup width="100%" paddingRight="10">
<s:TextInput skinClass="spark.skins.mobile.TextInputSkin" />
<s:Button width="50" height="50"/>
</s:HGroup>
Thanks

Yes sure I will be glad to do that. In fact I have started working on it
using regular expression.

I have to do this same thing (different backend, but the same
activity...converting Flex 3 rich text to valid html)...if you
find/discover/create a solution, would you share?
