ActionScript 1/2 :: Saving Image To Server From Stand Alone SWF Using PHP?
Jan 12, 2010
I built an information terminal for the shop of a friend of mine which uns as fullscreen application.On this terminal the swf file is running as a stand alone file by unsing the flash player directly.I want to save a snapshot (jpg) from a webcam if someboy presses a button.This does work as long as I run my application (swf) by using the browser (Firefox , Apache and localhost).But if I try to use it as it should be used no image is beeing created.
There was an error when first testing the application which forwarded me to an Adobe site where I had the possibility to grant files permissions, which I did for the file (the SWF) that needed it.Did I do something wrong, or is there some permission thet I have to grant before it works as it should be?

change the following php/AS3 to make it save the dynamically created masked image to the server instead of offering it for download? You have to pass it variables from the as3 AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST...
PHP -
<?php
if(isset($_FILES['Filedata'])) { // basically if file data exists to actually upload.

way to have a specific portion of the stage save as a .jpg to the server.
So, if a user were to draw something, and click a "save" button, they would be able to save their drawing to the server as a jpg.

I have created an xml driven application with which the client is very happy. They currently use notepad/dw to create the xml files. They now want a "form" of some description to create the xml file to avoid writing tags and so on. I have had a good look around. There is some info about creating the xml itself in as3 (looks pretty easy), but very little about how to save that file to the clients server. I gather that the flash doesn't do this for security reasons?
My question is really this: would i be better using php to create the form for my user rather than flash as3. Or is it better to create in as3 and then append a little php to upload the doc? Or am I going abouit this the wrong way!

I have in mind a very basic swf file that allows someone to enter data (via dynamic text box), submit this data (via php), which in turns saves it as a file on the Server. This file (.txt) would be used to populate text on the main site. Most of this seems quite straight forward, and standard practice, apart from actually saving the data as a particular file and on the server (or overriding an existing file), which I'm sure comes up against problems such as FTP access and everything else, but I was wondering if someone might have an insight on how this could be done?

I'm trying to write a contest where the user can paint an outlined image I provide, and then submit it. I want it to then save the image on my server with properties so I can tell who submitted it. They will be asked to input these values of course. I looked into the JPGEncoder but could only find examples for downloading the image directly. Is there an easier way to do a contest like this? I'd rather not have them have to save the image locally and then e-mail it, as this is geared towards kids and I don't want it to be confusing.

Say I have a webpage where a user enters their name and it is displayed to them on a swf. If I have a save button, how could they save their dynamically changed swf to their computer, with their name on it?
Bare in mind that if a normal save is completed, they will only be saving the swf on my server. Somehow, something needs to happen to get them to save the swf with thei name on it, as saving a dynamic swf is not possible in as3 (I dont think)

I am trying to save some images from Flash to Php by sending a jpgstream, capturing it in php and pushing it to a file. Not sure what I am doing wrong here.
I am putting all the images I need into an array like so: (history is just where I am keeping all the image data)
[Code]...
But this doesn't seem to do the trick. I have been going through a bunch of different tutes and code snippets, so maybe I just ogt something confused along the way. I have done this before though and don't remember it being this difficult.

Here's what I am trying to accomplish. I have a BitmapData that I am sending to a PHP function as ByteArray on the server by using URLRequest. The PHP function then saves the ByteArray as a jpg. All is well, so far and I am able to save the image on the server. Where I am stuck is that the PHP function generates the image file name randomly and I have no clue on how to get the name of the file I have just saved on the server. I am using the below code to send byteArray to the PHP function. How to modify/add this so I can get the filename of the image once it's saved on the server?
var myHeader:URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader("Content-type","application/octet-stream");
var myReqst:URLRequest = new URLRequest(path);

I am working on an educational game that requires the user to enter their username and password in order to retrieve their saved game data. I know how to do this locally using the sharedObject class but I do not really understand how to do this remotely on the server. I thought maybe using remote shared objects would work but it looks to me like that only works with a flash server and data can be changed by anyone.

I am trying to make a flash application that can save (to the user's local hard drive) a screen shot of the canvas (or more accurately part of it).I've dabbled with Quasimondo's Bitmap Exporter which did some funky stuff to render an image, ship it to a php script on the server, and bounce it back to the client. But not only is that inefficient it also has two other major flaws:
1) it's written in actionscript 2 so I can't use any actionscript 3 abilities.
2) it breaks as soon as one of the images on the stage is defined as a variable brought in through $_GET rather than hard coded. (the image comes in fine but then the rendered finished product is a blank white image)

I'm using CURL to upload files to a service. Currently I'm getting the file content with $GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"] then save it on my server. After that, I'm using CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS with the file's full path. Is there a way to send the file content directly, without saving it on my server, as if I saved it? Or is there a way to upload a Photo from a flash app to facebook album, without saving it on the server?

how I can save a screenshot of a SWF. All the examples I found requires some form of PHP scripts and some action on the server side.I am doing a simple program where at the end, the players will be awarded a certificate and they have to be able to save it on their desktop. This program is to be run on a cd-rom or off a local hard disk, thus it must not involve any server side actions.

Im currently trying to work the imageSnapshot function in flex. Ive been looking hard but I cant seem to find a solution to my problem. I wish to take a screenshot of one of my components, to capture the final output of my program, since a plain "printscreen" cuts off some of the output due to it scrolling. My current code looks like -
<mx:ApplicationControlBar dock="true">
<mx:Button label="Take snapshot of Profile"
click="takeSnapshot();" />

I'm using sephorith's excellent export jpg with flash and php set up which can be found here:
[URL]
I have this working, taking a simple grab in my flash movie and finally displaying the image in the broswer as a jpg. This is all fine, however, instead of displaying the image in the browser, I want to just save it into a folder. I know very little php, but in the file provided, he uses the line:
[CODE]
// print out the correct header to the browser
header("Content-type:image/jpeg");
// display the image
imagejpeg($img, "", 90);

I am working on a web-tool that allows users to add pre-loaded tiles of data as overlays to Google Maps. I then want users to be able to save their work. I'm approaching this as them saving a series of images that they can then import to work and add text etc to a layout they choose. If you want to see it in action, it's available here: [URL]
My issue is saving the map image.
I started by trying to use BitmapData.draw() and the JPGEncoder class in the as3corelib and this works for the 2 legend images. It also works for the map when testing on my PC (and changing the Global Security Settings). As soon as you put it on the server it hangs at the BitmapData.draw() line, and I've since found out that this isn't resolvable:
code.google.com/apis/maps/faq.html#bitmapdata
I went back to trying to use map.getPrintableBitmap (code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/flash/reference.html#Map.getPrintableBitmap; which I'd previously discarded due to poor resolution). I can still pass this through JPGEncoder and am now happy with the result. However, the code only runs when no overlays have been added to the map.
My "save code" goes as follows:
Code:
import JPGEncoder;
Security.loadPolicyFile("195.62.199.219/pctsla/gis/supporttool/crossdomain.xml"); //see note below
[Code].....
Note: PHP cannot be installed on the server I am working with for various reasons so I need to pursue other routes.

A project of mine involves a flash movie (.swf) in a webpage, where the user has to pick from a number of items, and has the option to thumbs up or thumbs down (vote on) each item.So far I have gotten this to work during each run of the application, as it is currently loading the data from an XML file - and the data is still static at the moment.I need to persist these votes on the server using a database (mySQL), such that when the page is reloaded, the votes aren't forgotten.Has anyone done this sort of thing before?The two mains methods that I have found on the 'net areeither direct communication between AS3 and the SQL using some sort of framework, orpassing the SQL query to a PHP file, which then executes the SQL query and returns the SQL to AS3.
Which of these methods is the better option?For the latter method (involving PHP), I have been able to find resources on how to acheive this when attempting to retrieve information from the database (i.e. a read operation), but not when attempting to send information to the database (i.e. a write operation, which is needed when the users vote). How is this done?Edit: Implemented solutionSomewhere in the PHP file:
if ($action == "vote")
{
$id = $_POST['id'];

I have a project where the user uploads a large 300dpi image, then manipulates it (drag it, rotate it, position it). And the user can reuse this 300 dpi image, basically to make something like a t-shirt pattern. Then when the user is ready, they save this t-shirt pattern, and the save format is a large 300dpi png. This saved png file is for printing. Now I figure I can have PHP take bitmap data (as binary I assume) and the php can create the png. Is it a good idea to use Flash for this? I will have to scale down the users loaded 300dpi image so they can position. Then I assume scale it back up when it comes time to save Does anyone think Flash can't handle this?
