ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX04] LoadVariables Need To Be Run Twice
Jan 7, 2006
i'm calling a php file, which is supposed to make an xml file. whenever i call the php file using this syntax, most of the time i get "cannot load file" in the xml loading section, but this updates the xml file.
[code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",this,"POST");[/AS]
but when i do it this way. [code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",NONE,"POST");[/AS]
the "cannot load file" messge doesn't get displayed, and the file loads perfectly, but this doesn't update the xml file.
so everytime i have to first use "this" and then "none".
what can i do so that whenever php is called, it'll update the xml file, and still load in the swf.

Ok, not sure where my other thread is, unless it needs to be manually approved by the moderators? If so, then my bad for making a 2nd thread.It doesn't exactly work... well when I use preview in CS4, it doesn't give any errors about not finding the file on the URL, I tested a fake URL to see if it would give an error and it did. So it is accessing the file perfectly. The chmod is set to 0777 on the settings.txt file.I don't understand why it's not "working" - all I need to do is view the flash file on site1.com - where the actual flash file is hosted on site2.com - I figured that it wasn't working before was because it was loading the settings.txt file from telltarget("..") - so viewing it on site1.com was searching for settings.txt on site1.com (I think???)That's why I need to get the loadVariables() working with a url so that when I view site1.com with the embedded flash file, that it will show it correctly.

Im developing a game. In some parts, i need to save some info on database (like experience, money, level, ...).
But i cant let people inject code on the server side script (php).
If i send the variables via post, the injector may create a form and send too =(
In php, i've tried to get the referer from where the data came from... without success, from flash, the referer comes null =(
If i make SESSIONs, the injector may enter on the game, after that, he goes to the form to inject the data, the session will not be erased =(

I'm doing my portfolio in FlashMX using Actionscript. Everything in that sites has a preloader.
Anyway, in the actual portfolio section I use variables form a .txt to load each work (that way I can add in a more easy way new content). The .txt contains location of images, text shown, titel, and some other variables. Each .txt is aprox. 350bytes.
The problem is that if the variables aren't loaded fast enough the content of each work is shown wrong.
Is there a way to calculate getBytesTotal() for variables ?

When I use the code below it works fine and loads the CSS-file and shows the the html-textarea as it should be CSS-formatted. BUT when I try to put the SAME code into a movieclip within another fla-movie it does not work (loads text but not css) and I get un "undefined" all the time. After trying a lot of different things I've come to the conclusion that it MIGHT have soemthing to do with the .onLoad that gets "undefined" in some way. As you can see below I'm getting two vars from input textfields and then use a button to activate the function loadCSS().

someone knows if a directory can be opened using loadVariables and then placed into an array or loop. I know files can be loaded individually, but I want to be able to see all the files using PHP and my .swf file.

I'm trying to send email from Flash. The email form is in a movie loaded with loadMovie. When I call the email.php page, it seems to take forever to do its thing and then nothing happens.
I based my script on the flash email form here in the Kirupa Tutorials and I've tried every way of giving the path to my variables - that is, the path to the text fields in the form via _root and _parent. I've tried appending variables the the loadVariables url and just tried posting them. I can't even get any results when I use the print function in the php script. Here is my php script:
PHP Code:
<?php
$name = $HTTP_POST_VARS['name_txt'];
$email = $HTTP_POST_VARS['email1_txt'];
$interest = $HTTP_POST_VARS['interest'];
[Code].....
It seems like my variables aren't reaching the form, but I'm also concerned hat is is taking forever for any data to be returned to the flash movie (I've got an on(data) event on the form).

I've got a windows that I can move with the startDrag script. This works just perfectly fine. When I load some text into a textbox inside the mc (window mc) the drag-script isn't working, neither is the close window script. But the text loads just fine. Why is this happening? I haven't changed anything in any of the scripts. If I just delete the loadVariablesNum("info.txt",0); line I can move the windows again.

it has many different sections(15 or so). Now i have made the movie and created all the checkboxes needed in the form.
I have given each one an instance name - e.g. chk_individualtax1
Made a global variable for each checkbox to get the .selected value - e.g. _global.individualtax1 = chk_individualtax1.selected;
At the end of the movie I have put a trace command to check that the variables are working( because they are on different timeline levels)- e.g. trace(individualtax1);
Now my problem comes here because now I am trying to send these variables off to the server using the getURL command. - e.g. getURL("send.php", "_blank", "POST");
This works and the email is sent off to me via php. however only the variables on the main timeline are sent? is there a difference in fetching global variables off different levels of the timeline Now should I rather be using the loadVariables command and if so how?

I have a PHP-site/script called webshop.php with a $_SESSION variable where I store id's of products. I've tested the script via the browser with functions ?add_item=11 etc... Everything works at that side.
Now, I want to call this script from a flash-movie and thought this little code could do the job: loadVariables("/webshop.php?add_item=" + id, this);
But it doesn't work. (I've also tried with a hardcoded id just to test, webshop.php?add_item=11).

I use loadvariables to get data from mySQL using PHP and up to Flash. Flash gets the data flawlessly. Now one of the data I load into Flash is a path to an image.
My problem is, when I check the imgVar variable, it telles me, its value is: images/news/001.jpg
Now When I use the AS:
loadMovie(imgVar, blanker);
it does nothing (blanker is the movie clip I load the picture to).
When I use the AS:
loadMovie("images/news/001.jpg", blanker);
it shows the picture...
My other question: If I solve this problem, how Can I resize the externally loaded image by just setting either the height or width and doing the resize so that it won't deform my image.

Like any of it's simple, but here's what I've got...I'm doing my loadVars, everything's going peachy, but now I want to swap the variable. I've got a bunch of vars in a text file, and here's how I'm doing it right now...
Code:
on (release) {
output1.text = myLoadVar.name2;
}
Now, this works ok, but with as many vars as I'm planning for, I'd like something that I didn't have to make a ton of frames just to have it run.
Code:
on (release) {
output1.text = myLoadVar.(name('prevnum'+1));
}
How do I do this?
