ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Data From Access Db Using Asp?
Jun 4, 2008
I have a quote reader where a quote is loaded from an access database through asp. First quote is animated in, waits for 6 seconds then replaced by the next. It is not working properly as it sometimes loads the first quote, but sometimes doesnt! None of the other quotes load in either......not used to doing this sorta stuff in flash so any help/guidance would be appreciated. Heres the code:
Code:
//Import the filter class
import flash.filters.DropShadowFilter;
//Create the dropShadow filter
I plan to learn use data from dtb in Flash. Do you know some tutor for loading data in Flash from Access or SQL in Flash? I don't understand PHP and mySQL. I use today ASP scripts for sending variables from Flash into the ASP page. I dont know how loading data in Flash. E.g. loading data in combo box for displaying option for selecting, loading list of items in text field, etc.

I have a simple microsoft access database (table with a handful of fields).I want to make a flash form that operators can use on mac and pc to enter information into the database.I know little about databases and although I've worked as a designer with flash for years, i know little about the latest scripting too.
Im new to placing external data into Flash. I just got CS3 and Im trying to use Flash to dynamically load XML data via a FlashVars call in the HTML.
The problem is I have followed the very straight forward AS2 Help files for using FlashVars and URL variables.I have placed the code directly from the Help file into the Html between <noscript> <noscript>and i keep getting undefined.I have tried saving the file as flash 8 and i am publish flash 8.
We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.
I have an Access Database (doesn't need to be Access, I can phpAdmin or mysql, whatever will work) that has a list of names. I want the user to open a Flash form and have the names load up into seperate input boxes for each name. The user can then change the names, move them, whatever, and then save the record. I want it to just overwrite the record. I donlt want create a new record. I cannot, for the life of me, figure this out. I have tried to find some tutorials but nothing makes sense. Is ASP a good way to go? I have been struggling with this for a week now.
I currently have a Flash app that gets populated by parsing data from an external XML file. However, I need to get the XML data into a (JSP) session and can't neccesarily have an external XML file--any suggestions? Can I put the XML string into a hidden input field in a form on the HTML? Can Flash communicate with that HTML? Or are one of the below methods recommended:
i load in AS3 data into flash and mantain their data type? Like receiving an array and even with arrays in it and recognizing that is an array instead of a standard string.
And if this is possible is it more reliable then using XML?

I'm currently working on a project that contains a lot of data, about 14.000 records. This means an xml file of about 3mb. Now my question is: Should I use the xml file to load all the data at once, or should I use a webservice, that provides the data when I need it? Keep in mind that I'm new to webservices. And if I'm going to use a webservice: How do I store the data, in a mySQL database?How fast is a webservice?

menas: I can't access the XML data by myXML.member[i].@mname. What I don't understand is, I can access XML by myXML.member[2].@mname, and I have for loop the length of XML data. why I still access by member[i]?
I've got a job for a client that includes creating a flash movie that will contain a number of thumbnails that represents links to avi movies, powerpoint presentation etc. The thumbnails need to be updated and added to on a regular basis. Is it best to call the thumbnails from an xml doc so the client can update easily?In the flash movie the thumbnails will be presented as a horizontal slideshow that needs to scroll horizintally on mouseover, and the thumbnails will also display a caption on mouseover. Is this all possible if the images are coming from an external source such as an XML doc.
I'm creating an application that will run on users computers rather than online. In the app users will have the option to save certain preferences as xml, and load their preferences using FileReference.browse() to locate the saved xml on their HD next time they use the app.
I'm using the FileReference class to save the xml out which works perfectly, but I'm struggling with how to access the data of the xml once I've browsed to it and clicked 'select' in the dialog box.
Here's some simplified code:
ActionScript Code: import flash.net.FileReference; var fr:FileReference = new FileReference();
I want to create an array and fill it with a bunch of stuff, but its getting too crowded in my document class..can I just create a class of 'data', ie variable declarations and arrays, and then reference that from the document class?
I am developing movie with AS 3.0. I want to send a big array of data to MS Access using asp. Normally we were doing it with sendAndLoad method for the old action script versions. But now using with CS 5 and AS 3.0. so I have to use sendToURL or NavigateToURL or loader.Load.
But in this case i need to send large data so I can't send it as QueryString, and not want to use navigateToURL since i found that it carry data on its URL.
How could I retrieve the data from asp page and send to MS Access if I am using sendToURL or loader.load method?
