I need to set the text field autosize property to NONE to ensure that HTML links do not jump on rollovers.
However, when I do this, how can I set the textfield height property to show all of the text without scrolling?
I have tried the following but for a reason I cannot figure out, it's squishing the height of my text:
htmlTextField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
htmlTextField.htmlText = htmlText;
var recordedHeight:Number = htmlTextField.textHeight;
htmlTextField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.NONE;
htmlTextField.height = recordedHeight + htmlTextField.getTextFormat().leading + 1;
TextFields have a 2px gutter all the way around so this may be tripping you up.
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
[SWF(frameRate="30", backgroundColor="#FFFFFF", width="500", height="500")]
public class TextfieldHeight extends Sprite
{
public function TextfieldHeight()
{
var textFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
textFormat.size = 11;
textFormat.font = "Georgia";
var htmlTextField:TextField = new TextField();
htmlTextField.setTextFormat( textFormat );
htmlTextField.width = 250;
htmlTextField.border = true;
htmlTextField.wordWrap = true;
htmlTextField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.NONE;
htmlTextField.htmlText = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aliquam sodales, eros at convallis viverra, risus mauris euismod tortor, ac imperdiet sem augue vitae risus. Morbi ut sem neque. Vestibulum accumsan posuere augue, eu consectetur nibh porttitor eget. Sed suscipit sodales dui id pharetra. Vivamus quis hendrerit lectus. Vivamus interdum, felis a convallis dictum, libero erat aliquet massa, non placerat neque augue quis lacus. Aliquam viverra sem ultrices leo lacinia eu dignissim dolor ullamcorper. Etiam ullamcorper tincidunt velit, a vulputate sapien consequat quis.';
htmlTextField.height = htmlTextField.textHeight + 4;
this.addChild( htmlTextField );
}
}
}
If you go here and read.
you will see.
Returns flash.text:TextFormat — The TextFormat object that represents
the formatting properties for the specified text.
Now if you look at TextFormat You will see the defaults are all pretty much 0
I ran into this issue a long time ago and the only work around I found was to select some text then grab defaultTextFormat and then deselect the text.
I am sure there is another method to do this but like I said it was my hack-a-round.

I have an essay with sidenotes. The page has two columns, one for the essay, another for the sidenotes. If a sentence has a sidenote, it is followed by a number in parentheses. The number is the sidenote number. For example: Essay: The sun circles the earth. (1) Sidenote: (1) Wrong!
My goal is to make all the numbers+parentheses smaller. I assume there is a simple CSS solution.
I should add that there are 80 different notes, hence my need for a simple, time-saving solution. Is there one that would allow me to say, "for every (n) where n is a number, make font 8pt"?
If you're looking for a pure CSS solution, you're out of luck. CSS is unable to parse text and manipulate the DOM—that is the work of JavaScript. If you are able to manually change the markup, you can wrap your citations, e.g. (1), with a semantic element, such as <sup>(1)</sup> if you want it to appear as superscript, or <span>(1)</span> if you want to style it otherwise. Given that you wanted Wikipedia-style citations, the former would be the way to go.
However, if you want the browser to parse your digits in parenthesis on-the-go, CSS alone is insufficient—you will have to use JS. As mentioned before, the best way to find such citations is to look for a format, for example, the following regex pattern will probably suffice: \(\d+\). However, it again depends on how you want them to be match. If you do not want them to match erroneously to normal bracketed numbers, such as within sentences, or in bulleted points, you will have to include a negated whitespace character before it: [^\s]\(\d+\).
Here is a simple example with JS+CSS combined:
$(function() {
$('p').each(function() {
$(this).html($(this).html().replace(/[^\s](\(\d+\))/gi,'<sup>$1</sup>'));
});
});
sup {
color: blue;
font-weight: bold;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus dapibus interdum ullamcorper, for example: (1) Suspendisse semper mattis ante, et efficitur justo tempor in; (2) Cras iaculis, magna a bibendum porta, diam massa ornare nisi, eget finibus sapien enim non elit; (3) Pellentesque ut ultrices libero.</p>
<p>Donec non velit et ante vestibulum maximus(1). Phasellus ac interdum nisi, eu iaculis massa. Proin vel sem est. Morbi euismod massa eu commodo efficitur. Phasellus vitae leo euismod, pretium turpis sit amet, bibendum elit(2). In efficitur id metus ullamcorper tristique. Integer et felis in felis suscipit tincidunt nec nec lectus.</p>
<p>Vestibulum mollis, magna sodales maximus faucibus, leo risus pretium libero, at placerat urna eros et nisl(3). Nunc cursus enim diam, in accumsan augue faucibus vel. Integer feugiat egestas lectus eu blandit. Donec ac neque turpis. Donec imperdiet feugiat purus, a congue dui convallis ut(4). Sed scelerisque ac massa non feugiat. Aliquam erat volutpat. Donec vestibulum odio id pulvinar elementum. Ut laoreet massa ac nibh pulvinar, id consequat tellus malesuada(5). Fusce porta purus diam, in luctus odio laoreet quis. Quisque condimentum condimentum felis sed rutrum. Aenean pellentesque felis in posuere efficitur. Mauris tristique ultricies massa at euismod.</p>
If you want a CSS solution, you could use the following:
HTML
<b>Essay:</b> The sun circles the earth. <span class="sidenote-number">(1)</span>
<b>Sidenote:</b> <span class="sidenote-number">(1)</span> Wrong!
CSS
.sidenote-number {
font-size: 10px;
}
The style in the sidenote-number class will be applied to the text inside of the spans.
Demo
What you may be looking for is the HTML <sup> (or <sub>) notation.
They stand for subscript and superscript respectively. The sub tag will allow you to create 'Wikipedia like' small numbers.
Example of superscript [1] (<sup>[1]</sup>)
Example of subscript [1] (<sub>[1]</sub>)
Here is a solution based on my comment. It amounts to a trivialized reference management system like bibtex.
Comment:
Maybe what you really want, is to use
every place you want a numbered side note, and then use javascript to
go through and automatically number and format them. That would be a
tradeoff between having to declare the span classes but not having to
keep track of your sidenote numbers.
This way, instead of hard-coding the side note numbers, you could add, remove or rearrange the notations, and they would still be automatically numbered properly.

<h1>Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)</h1>
<p>Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the
look and formatting of a document written in a markup
language <span class="sidenote" data-source="src1"></span>.
Although most often used to change the style of web pages and user
interfaces written in HTML and XHTML, the language can be applied to
any kind of XML document, including plain XML, SVG and XUL. Along with
HTML and JavaScript, CSS is a cornerstone technology used by most websites
to create visually engaging webpages, user interfaces for web applications,
and user interfaces for many mobile applications <span class="sidenote" data-source="src2"></span>.</p>

<ul id='references'></ul>
CSS:
#references {

Javascript:
var sources = {
src1: "Article by so and so in such and such",
src2: "Book by someone"
};
var sidenotes = $('.sidenote');

Untested regex/javascript/jquery solution:

function walk(node)

// I stole this function from here:
// http://is.gd/mwZp7E
var child, next;
switch (node.nodeType)
{
case 1: // Element
case 9: // Document
case 11: // Document fragment
child = node.firstChild;
while(child)
{
next = child.nextSibling;
walk(child);
child = next;
}
break;
case 3: // Text node
check(node);
break;
}
//Check if the text node contains parentheses.
function check(node)
{
var v = textNode.nodeValue;
var res = v.match(/\(*.\)/g); //Match anything inside of parentheses
if(res)
{
v.style.fontSize = "8px"; //Not sure if that part would actually work
}
textNode.nodeValue = v;

Am trying to do a replacement of customized tags with html tags in my website as follows:
[block-2] "Donec volutpat nibh sit amet libero ornare non laoreet arcu luctus. Donec id arcu quis mauris". [/block-2]
If the above [block] tag is encountered, it should be replaced by some html tags (using regexp), specifically:
<blockquote class="tm-style2"><span>
"Donec volutpat nibh sit amet libero ornare non laoreet arcu luctus. Donec id arcu quis mauris".
</span></blockquote>
I have tried the following but is not working. Please help:
$article_text = preg_replace_callback(
"(\[block-([0-9]+)\](.+)\[\/block-([0-9]+)\])",
create_function('$p','return "<blockquote class=\"tm-style".$p[1]."\"><span>".$p[2]."</span></blockquote>";'), $article_text);
You don't actually need to use preg_replace_callback function, just preg_replace would be fine.
\[(block-([0-9]+))\](.+?)\[\/\1\]
Then replace the matched characters with
<blockquote class="tm-style\2"><span>\n\3\n</span></blockquote>
DEMO
$re = "~\\[(block-([0-9]+))\\](.+?)\\[\\/\\1\\]~m";
$str = "[block-2] \"Donec volutpat nibh sit amet libero ornare non laoreet arcu luctus. Donec id arcu quis mauris\". [/block-2]";
$subst = '<blockquote class="tm-style\2"><span>'."\n".'\3'."\n".'</span></blockquote>';
$result = preg_replace($re, $subst, $str);
echo $result;
Output:
<blockquote class="tm-style2"><span>
"Donec volutpat nibh sit amet libero ornare non laoreet arcu luctus. Donec id arcu quis mauris".
</span></blockquote>
You need to escape closing tag's backslash in your pattern ...[\/block....
So full pattern is (\[block-([0-9]+)\](.+)\[\/block-([0-9]+)\])
What I am trying to do is find a chunk of HTML that has comments chunk!--/block--> and move it in its entirety right after header. The thing is that the comment always remains the same but the chunk varies through pages using find and replace in Dreamweaver. Here is a quick sample:
<!--header-->
<header>Hello</header>
<!--/header-->
This is where the chunk needs to be moved
<h1>Hello content</h1>
<p>lorem ipsum</p>
This is the chunk, it has a starting comment and ending one, I thought it might be used as a references for RegEx including everything inside.
<!--block-->
<p>hello world</p>
<!--/block-->
Ok. You didn't specify the language for reular expression but this PHP code does what you need I just wrote it and tested it. As a bonus I wrote the final result back to the source page.
First you have your original file, I called mine source.php
<!--header--> <header>SO HERE IS THE HEADER</header> <!--/header-->
<div>this is information that is above ID CARR, but will be below the div ID carr once php is done executing..</div>
<div id="carr"> Phasellus laoreet dolor magna, et tempor mi dictum eu. Aenean pellentesque vulputate tortor. Vestibulum odio velit, faucibus sed dui non, laoreet facilisis sem. Curabitur a magna ligula. Cras cursus vel dui placerat posuere. Donec ullamcorper risus eu lobortis dignissim. Nullam fermentum est diam, sed lacinia sapien ornare et. </div> <div>here is more informatin on the bottom</div>
Then you have another page called index.php that does what you want. In this example I am targeting the above.
<?php
$page_path = 'source.php';
$source = file_get_contents($page_path);
$regex = '#\<div id="carr">(.+?)\</div>#s';
preg_match($regex, $source, $matches);
$match = $matches[0];
$a = explode("</header>", $source);
//strip out what we found with regular expression
$first = str_replace($match, '', $source);
//append it to the place where you need it.
$final = str_replace('<!--/header-->', '<!--/header-->'.$match, $first);
echo $final;
$fp = fopen($page_path, 'w+');//w+ erases r+ point at begining of file.
fwrite($fp, $final);
fclose($fp);
?>
this is the scenario
I have a Word document ( .docx ) which i want to convert in a template, saving it as a "XML Word 2003" file. Inside the document content, i put a custom tag named {MY_CONTENT} which will be replaced with HTML code.
When I generate a word document like this, it didn't open properly. This is the HTML code i'm trying to insert into the Word Xml document:
<div style='text-align: center;'>
<b><font size='3'>Contract</font></b>
</div>
<div>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Proin quis justo elementum,
vehicula ante vel, facilisis ante. Aenean dolor lectus, cursus in mattis sed, ullamcorper ut quam.
Quisque fringilla erat sit amet blandit euismod. Integer nec odio vel erat molestie fringilla.
Aliquam tempor ac urna vitae convallis. Praesent mattis massa eget lectus mattis,
non imperdiet ipsum suscipit. Phasellus gravida eros turpis, et faucibus libero gravida
non.
Aliquam ultricies nisl eget magna tincidunt tincidunt. Proin feugiat interdum nibh nec rutrum.
In hac habitasse platea dictumst. Etiam ac condimentum nisl, et volutpat mauris.
Mauris erat dui, aliquam ut urna vel, euismod placerat est.
<font size='3'></font>
</div>
I tried to "htmlencode" the html code above, but still the document is not opened property.
If it was possible to "traslate" a HTML piece of code into Word xml tags, i think it could be resolved.
... or is there a way to display the html code into the word xml document, without converting it or applying sorcery ?
Thanx in advance.
Thanx for your kind comments. I stored them in my PKDB ( personal knowledge database ) :) for further uses.
Finally, I decided to use ITEXTSHARP library to generate the document, because it gives me the tools to insert HTML code without formatting isues.
I inserted an image template as background, wrote the HTML code, and that's all.
Hope this piece of code to be useful for any person
This is the code
string pathImagenPlantilla = Server.MapPath(<path_of_the_image_template>);
//generar el pdf al vuelo
string filenamePDF = "Your_Document_Name.pdf";
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=" + filenamePDF);
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
//load the image template
iTextSharp.text.Image jpg = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(pathImagenPlantilla);
//define your HTML code
StringBuilder strTextoHTML = new StringBuilder();
strTextoHTML.Append("<html>");
strTextoHTML.Append("<body>");
strTextoHTML.Append(<your HTML CODE right here>);
strTextoHTML.Append("</body>");
strTextoHTML.Append("</html>");
// margins, in milimeters
float margenIzquierdo = 25;
float margenDerecho = 25 ;
float margenSuperior = 25 ;
float margenInferior = 10 ;
Document pdfDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4, margenIzquierdo, margenDerecho, margenSuperior, margenInferior);
//Adjust the size of image template , to the screen size
float pageWidth = pdfDoc.PageSize.Width - (margenIzquierdo + margenDerecho);
float pageHeight = pdfDoc.PageSize.Height - (margenInferior + margenSuperior);
jpg.SetAbsolutePosition(margenIzquierdo, margenInferior);
jpg.ScaleToFit(pageWidth, pageHeight);
//If you want to choose image as background then,
jpg.Alignment = iTextSharp.text.Image.UNDERLYING;
PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDoc, Response.OutputStream);
pdfDoc.Open();
pdfDoc.NewPage();
//add image template
pdfDoc.Add(jpg);
//add html code
foreach (IElement E in HTMLWorker.ParseToList(new StringReader(strTextoHTML.ToString()), new StyleSheet()))
{
pdfDoc.Add(E);
}
//close doc and display/download
pdfDoc.Close();
Response.Write(pdfDoc);
Response.End();
Regards,
I am using iText (iTextSharp 5.1.1) and I am trying to do some tables.
The first table column spans across several rows. Depending on previous content, the column would sometimes be split on two pages. Sometimes, only one row would remain on the first page, leaving the column not high enough for a label to be displayed.
Is there any way to detect if a column would span across two pages if added to a document, so I can fill in some rows to prevent this behavior.
Or is there a way to tell a cell not to split under any circumstances?
Well, I coded your example with iText 2.1.7 in Java:
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(2);
table.setSplitLate(true); // default value
PdfPCell largeCell =
new PdfPCell(new Paragraph("Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,\r\n"
+ "consectetur adipiscing elit. Curabitur\r\n"
+ "vel nisl quis turpis molestie blandit.\r\n"
+ "Donec a ligula sit amet quam feugiat\r\n"
+ "aliquet in id augue. Etiam placerat\r\n"
+ "massa ac ligula dictum convallis.\r\n"
+ "Mauris in leo quis lorem facilisis\r\n"
+ "tincidunt. Praesent lorem libero,\r\n"
+ "porttitor tincidunt egestas consequat,\r\n"
+ "tempor quis erat. Sed lorem ipsum,\r\n"
+ "posuere a ornare ac, viverra ut diam. In\r\n"
+ "porta ultrices tristique. Nulla non libero\r\n"
+ "a nisi pharetra consequat. Vestibulum\r\n"
+ "nunc urna, lobortis id ultricies vitae,\r\n"
+ "fermentum eu magna. Duis nibh lacus,\r\n"
+ "adipiscing at tempor eget, interdum\r\n" + "quis libero."));
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Paragraph("Long Column"));
cell.setRowspan(5);
table.addCell(cell);
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
table.addCell(largeCell);
}
And it works quite well as asked by Kornelije... The "wrong" output will only be produced, when I use table.setSplitLate(false), so with the default value of true everything is just fine.
