getting the preloader working. I also searched and found claudio's exampe of it and tried to follow it exactly but it seems I have it failing miserably...I have a form in an external swf that's being loaded in with the previous script, but the masking doesn't allow text to be edited in the imput field. I know dynamic masking let's you do this, but I couldn't apply the mask to two items then. [URL]
View 5 Repliesi have this image of a tree and a single frame so i want to make it inside a nested movie clip so i make the symbol and make the mask, and i tween the mask to start off on the bottom and moves its way to overtop of the symbol i write the code to what i know works with a regualr preloader but when i go to test the movie nothing happens. How do i make a masking preloader with actionscript 3.0 giving the impression that the tree is the item that is loading on the screen?
View 1 RepliesI'm making a flash website for a non-profit organization. I made a guestbook with PHP and XML and my contact form with PHP, but the server I am using doesn't accept files with php, asp, js, html, or htm extensions. They are using godaddy's WebSite Tonight built-in website builder currently. They want to keep the original site for backup but cannot export the current website files because of the website builder application. Is there any way I get make a guestbook without php, asp, js, or html?

View 1 RepliesI am doing some forms in Flash Cs4 with AS3. The forms are working well, but i have a code to check if people have enter information in every field. But the verification only works for 2 field. The code is exactly the same for the other but it doesn't work. Can you double check my code and maybe explain me why it doesn't work or maybe how to replace the validation code by another.

View 2 RepliesDoing some development in Flash Builder 4 using Action Script 3.0.I'm trying to have some code run each time the form is displayed.The form is not always recreated, but sometimes hidden and reused.Visual Basic used to have an Activate event that does similar to what I want.I tried Render, but that fires every time the form changes (via click, text-edit, etc.)We tried the FlexEvent.ADD, but it only fires when the form is first created, same as creation_complete.Is there a good resource that shows the form "life cycle" and all the events and when they are fired and in what order?
NOTE: I'm trying to get our forms to close when the ESC is pressed.

I have made two input forms, one for the subject and one for the message, and a button. Now, my problem is that I want the data from the form to go into the users email program in the right boxes.
I don't want the button to send the message!! Just open the message in the email program.
How components can be used to create an order form in Flash MX. I have looked for multiple scripts etc an have found a few, but:
i) What AS must I use to target the PHP/ASP (which is the better to use) file?
ii)What must I use in the serverside script to tell it that the variables are being sent from Flash?
I've created a form with validation that works. Problem is when I turn it into a movie clip, and place the clip on my timeline, the form no longer works. Perhaps I have to reference _root but I'm not sure where.

My company has a database-driven system of web forms, each ofwhich consists of many questions in various layouts (2-columnradio, 1 column checkbox, etc). The forms are never hard-coded.Each HTTP request causes Java code to perform DB queries todynamically generate the various questions and answers.Thosequestions are then rendered through JSP and Struts tiles into HTML.The HTML also contains JavaScript functions to hide/showconditional questions on the web page based on answers to earlierquestions. Now we're trying to figure out the best way to adapt thissystem to use a Flash front-end instead of HTML/JavaScript.My preliminary research suggests at least two possibleapproaches:
1. A pre-compiled SWF could send a request with certainparameters, and the server could respond with an XML description ofthe form to build. Then the SWF could parse that XML andynamically generate the form using attachMovie for each formelement (with a lot of math to determine relative positions ofelements with variable sizes, like text labels). 2. Flex might reduce the code for placing elements, by usingMXML to describe the form structure as well as visual arrangement.I haven't used this yet, and I'm wary of Flex 2 simply because itrequires Flash Player 9 which is only at 50% browser penetration
I need to build a web application in flash, the gist is the application takes users inputs and generates a network diagram based on that inputs. I actually coded the entire application in JS DOM and PHP GD, and client comes back suddenly saying they cant support PHP (IT restrictions). So now am back to square one, wondering, how to draw network images dynamically. JS cant do it. So I stumbled upon Actionscript. So if i were to code an application entirely in actionscript,
1. Does actionscript provide me a way to create input fields (select, text, textarea...etc)
2. Would i be able to use these user inputs from Question 1 to generate a network diagram?
3. Can actionscript do Question's 1 and 2 without needing support from a server side
scripting language like PHP?
I have a project which has 2 html, 2 swf and 2 fla files. I have a default form and I would like to call another form or screen form a button click.

Currently I am using

I've installed free FMS developper version on a vista OS, using the embeded Apache server. I added PHP 5.13 and everything seems to work except that : when I try to manage HTML forms, using the 'post' method, the result is a prompt windows, asking me for downloading the php file (corresponding to that pointed in the 'action' attribute. It acts as if Apache did not recognize the type php. My httpd.conf includes everyting to make php works fine. The clue is, when I change the form 'method' to 'GET', the php script works well! My FMS is configured to tunnel the HTTP request, listening to ports 80 and 1935 ant proxying HTTP to port 8134 (defaults) When I override this tunneling, by requesting the php file from my web browser directly to port 8134, it works fine too ! Now, I know that the problem comes from FMS and HTTP tunneling, but I have no idea how to solve it...

How do I convert it to flash?
what AS3 code I should write, what should I call my form text fields and my button instance. Also where if anywhere should I put the equivalent of the <form></form> tags.
Is it possible to develop multiple forms using Flash/Flux and AS3.
