ActionScript 2.0 :: Can Flash Integrate Bi-Directional Dynamic Text?
Aug 16, 2002
I am quite new to the world of Flash (as far as developing anyway), so here's my question: Can Flash intergrate Bi-Directional Dynamic Text? I know Flash can read text (from a text file) and input it Dynamically in a movie, but can it do the reverse? Can it take text, data, and/or variables created by actionscript or input text fields (both from within the movie) and write it into an existing or new text file?
Does anyone know where to find examples, tutorials or source files on how to integrate flash with backend to create a dynamic image gallery that can easily be updated?
Anyone have any code or a possible tutorial for using the directional keys for scrolling. In particular I want to use shift + left or right keys for scrolling an image.
he problem I'm having is I can't make this code reusable- I want to use it in a more linear fashion for banners rather then dynamically with mouse clicks. Has anyone had any luck using this in a timeline?This is my attempt to customize at the moment (old_loc is coming up as undefined, which in turn makes new_loc NaN):
i have a problem with the line space flash creates when a dynamic text is loaded in a dynamic text field on the stage i put a dynamic textFild with istance name "profile_text". then im loadin in it a text. my text is written in the Notepad like this
[Code]...
i already set a Textformat to my dynamic text with i tryied to play with the "Leading".. but i think it something dealing with paragraph. how i can decrease spacing between paragraphs??
how to change the directional arrows to keyboard letters on keypress. the browser scrolls when i press arrow up and down arrows and it's quite annoying. i just want to change the keypress of up arrow to w, then left arrow to a, right arrow to d and down arrow to s. just one of any will do then i'll do the rest.
here's the code:
function detectKeys() { var ob = _root.char; var keyPressed = false; if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
Is there a library for SSH in ActionScript 3? If not, how to have Flash integrate with SSH.I have a Flash prototype programmed out, and my client wants to see some minimal integration with an SSH server. What is needed is basically: connectauthenticate send a few basic commands I can't just have these commands be sent out blindly, as I need Flash to be aware of the SSH feedback and let the user know if the authentication, commands, etc were successful.
tutorials (e.g. ) show how to integrate Flash and MySQL. Also Flash can manipulate and sent this back to serverTo integrate flash and MySQL one can do the following:(1) MySQL -> php -> Flash (e.g. What is the most robust way to set up (1) and (2) to work at scale - as quickly as possible? What are the server loading implications? Is there any other way to do (1) and (2) more effectively?

I'm building a portfolio website for my design work. The whole website is Flash based. I have a Flash banner that I would like to add to the website but I can't seem to place it on stage. Is there a way to stream the banner? If I do that, how do I place it's location on stage?
Here's what I am trying to do: I am working on a flash site and I want it to start out with a bang so I've made a intro clip in After Effects in 1920x1080. I want this intro to start by you clicking a button. So when you first see the screen you are going to see the paused video (In my case the earth from outer space) and a big red button which you can click to start this video. Since I am working in 1080p I won't be able to use FLV so we are talking about the embeded video function. My problem: I want the video to stop or go to the next frame after playback it only loops as of now.

Just wondering how do i integrate a php file with flash to get and recieve variables through the php file from as3?
I would like to start off by putting as3 variables into php database. Then i would like to connect with an as3 variable from php to change the variable to something from the database.
I have previous experience with AS3, but not so much in web development. now I want to install a game in facebook, but since im very uninformed,i'm having a bad time chossing the best option. I have three alternatives to integrate my flash app in facebook.Adobe actionscript API: Until now, I tried it and worked for me to log in , get friends, and that kinda of basic. Has a ton of problems and bugs, and i decided to switch.
FMBS seems to be the best option, according to most people feedback in forums, but it's going to be deprecated and i don't want to invert effort and time in an option that is going to be dipossed.What do i have left ?, iframe ? Javascript ?
I tried to implement this captcha [URL]. But It seems really hard I wasn't able to do it. I tried to make a test php page but it wasn't successful either. session_start(); # ~~~ CAPTCHA Form Submit ~~~~~~~~~~ # if ($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] == 'final') { if ($_SESSION['secCode_ok'] === true) { $_SESSION['secCode_ok'] = false; // reset old results Then pass and execute query. <input id="sec_code" class="input_captcha" maxlength="5" /> How to get a working example file?
I'm trying to integrate a Flash Professional/AS3 game into Facebook. The swf is hosted on a secure (https) server. The swf has to connect to a SmartFoxPro socket server on another domain.I'm using the Facebook Actionscript API to interface with Facebook. (Should I use PHP, instead? I read an article that recommends using PHP, because the Actionsrcipt API may not be kept up to date.) When I fire up my app, I get a "Security Information" pop-up box saying that the page contains both secure and nonsecure items. I click "yes" to all the display of the nonsecure items.
Then, I get an "XD Proxy blah-blah-blah" popup. This pop-up goes away, and then my app logs in to my SmartFox server.So... What is this "XD Proxy" window? I think it looks unprofessional, and users may think there's an error with the app. Also, can I block or hide the "Security Information" pop-up? Why don't I see this in other FB apps?
simple way to integrate flash forms with any database,without using ASP or any other scary programming.All I want is to insert & retrieve data from a database directly from my flash movie.
I'm trying to find a way to integrate google map in my flash project. I've tried several components that i found on the web, but non of them works properly. The only one that did some kind of work was this:[url]...The problem with it is that when i test the flash on my pc it works fine, but when i upload the flash on the net the map doesn't show. There is instead a sign "We are sorry, but we don't have imagery for this zoom" or something like that.
I'm using the dynamic text scroller from [URL] found at [URL] Here's a link to my zipped files too... [URL]
1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.
I am working in Flash CS5 and I have placed a text field (dynamic, classic text) on the stage. I am accessing it through Actionscript on the same frame like this:
var ct:TextField = TextField(getChildByName("Temperature")); ct.text = "Hello world";
What ACTUALLY appears is this: So... The H, Ls, and D are gone. Mysteriously. Without warning. I am sitting here utterly confused. Is this just me?
PS. The text field is set to Myriad Pro Bold, a font on my computer, so it isn't like it's a font problem.
There is a dynamic text box and I set it's wrap to be falseHowever, when I input text and press enter key, it still return to next line. How should I fix it in Flash CS3?
I am a DBA and I provide data to the developers at my companyin XML format. The developers create Flash graphics and use the XMLto populate data variables. I want to start requiring thedevelopers to make calls directly to my MySQL databases so anytimei have to make a change to the underlying data, I don't get stuckgenerating an updated XML file for the developers.My developers tell me a Flash graphic cannot make a calldirectly to a mySQL database. They say Flash has to reference apage in which variables are defined, such as an XML, PHP, ASP pageetc. This page, they say, is generated from database info, butFlash does not directly make the call to the database ... thatanother programming technology (XML, PHP, etc.) does and has toparse the information, making it available to Flash.
