take Text from TextInput on Scene 1, Display it in Scene 2 Label

[Boomtown]

Hi there,

I want to have the user type in their name and click spin.

Upon clicking the button, it changes from Scene 1 (where the user types name) to Scene 2 where it displays the result.

After the spin it returns the result and congratulates the user.

I want to display what the user typed in from the previous scene.

Scene 1 on my button:

var str:String = fName.text;

Scene 2 :

label1.text = str;

Below is exactly my issue, however I do not understand the answer,

Passing values from one scene to another

I have also tried:

var firstname:String;
fName.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, inputCapture1);  
function inputCapture1(e:Event):void{  
firstname = fName.text;  
}

Hi.

It could be something like this:

AS3:

[Input scene]

import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var savedName:String;
function inputName(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    gotoAndStop(1, "Input");
}
function showResult(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    savedName = nameText.text;
    gotoAndStop(1, "Result");
}
stop();
spinButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showResult);

[Result scene]

resultText.text = savedName;
backButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, inputName);
