Tex box

Hello i have downloaded the demo of cosntruc, i would like to show a text, from an url: mattepainting.be/index.txt inside the textbox.

How to do that?

thanks

best to look through the basic tutorial

scirra.com/tutorials/37/beginners-guide-to-construct-2

Actually, the beginner tutorial won't be any help here...

You need to use the AJAX object in C2 to request the file as detailed here

(It won't work if you request it from another domain)

Thanks lemo :D

MMhh i have tried... actualy it look like this but its not working :s

<img src="http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/323/ajax01.jpg" border="0" />

here its the link of my app: mattepainting.be/test/run.html

nothing happens, that don't show the text from index.html

Don't use AJAX.LastData as a tag (:

And also, I'm not sure that the On created is triggered if the object already exists in the layout

Try

On start of layout:
[ul]
	[li]> request "http://mattepainting.be/index.txt" tag "aSimpleString"[/li]
[/ul]+AJAX On "aSimpleString" completed
[ul]
	[li]> Textbox: set text to AJAX.LastData

Ok i have done like you told me but :s result don't work :s

and the test: http://mattepainting.be/test/index.html

Can someone help please?? i think the AJAX don't work.

So i have made everything, but the ajax don't want to show the link by requesting his url.

i don't know what to do, i want just to load an external text file in the text box.

In the console you can read:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://www.mattepainting.be/index.txt. Origin http://mattepainting.be is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin

no that change nothing, that don't work at all <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

This works:

http://www.mattepainting.be/test/index.html

There's a difference between http://mattepainting.be and http://www.mattepainting.be. You can't make AJAX requests from mattepainting.be to the www subdomain. You should make your requests relative like

AJAX request "index.txt"

or "../index.txt"

ahhh lool thanks :D solved :D
