Ah I see.

Something along these lines?

I googled:: AS3 return instance as image

HTH,

well, I'm not trying to embed an image. I want to use a MovieClip.

maybe this 'ideal scenario' will help

var numStep:NumericStepper = new NumericStepper ();
var txt:TextField = new TextField ();
txt.htmlText = "age: <img src='" + numStep + "'/>";

(I know that will not work. I am just trying to get the point across that I don't want an image or linkage id, but I want an instance of class)

Hi Ktu,
I believe you want it to be a function return.

txt.htmlText = "age: <img src='getNumericStepper()'/>"

getNumericStepper could be a call to a createimage php file for example. when returning the image, php will send the data and content type of the image and the <img> tag interprets it as an image.

like ...

return imagepng($image); //the last line in my createimage.php file

I did this with a captcha box I made.
Made one in flash and html. both call on that php file for the image.
That way if a user was viewing with flash or a non-flash user, both had to
submit this captcha to register for instance.

Hope im not too off.  *:)

Best,
Karl

Thanks for the responses Karl. Yes, I meant displaying html inside Flash.

I am using Keith Peters' tiny components.
I want to instantiate an instance of the NumericStepper inside an instance of a TextField. I know that you can use htmlText with an <img> tag to place Library Items, image files and external SWF, but I want to instantiate just a random class in there (in this case NumericStepper).

vat txt:TextField = new TextField ();
txt.htmlText = "age: <img src='NumericStepper'/>"

does that make more sense?

Or Are you talking about displaying HTML in flash?
I did that once in AS2. Don't know about AIR, hopefully it is much better at it than the flash player.

You probably want to use flashVars to talk with some javascript that then calls the image and that, you put as the src?

Hey List,

I've been googling for an hour and haven't found a solution. My google fu is
weak, I concede defeat.

Pure AS3 AIR
No Library
No FLA


I am dynamically building a TextField. In it I would like to place some instances of Sprites. What should the src attribute of the <img> tag be if I
want it to instantiate an object?

ex. <img src='com.name.MySpriteClass'/>

If you can't do it, are there any workarounds?

thanks guys.
