I have a very simple form to send user data to a php file
when i run my form from FLASH PROFESSIONAL it send without problem
but when i run SWF or html with SWF no matter on lacal disc or website it doesn't work[code]...
Let's say I'd like to post some data to a server side script. If my data is
var data:String = "<data><tag1>hi</tag1></data>";
and I'd like to send it with LoadVars, I can do:
var lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars()
lv.data = data;
lv.sendAndLoad("http://thescript/", lv, "POST");
However, this results in the POST looking like this:
data=<data><tag1>hi</tag1></data>
if I want to send it without the variable name (no "data=", just the actual data), how is this possible? In AS3 I can just use the .data property of a URLRequest and it will work, however I can't find a way to do this in AS2.
There seems to be a problem with Firefox 2.x sending variables to PHP scripts with the LoadVars.send/POST method.

The same problem doesn't occur in IE or Opera. <br>See this url for example to try in both FF and IE/Opera: here. <br>The source files are here g.zelenka@iinet.net.au
How can i make form in flash to send info to php by post or get ?[code]...
View 7 RepliesIm building a reservation form, using actionscript and php. I use sendAndLoad to send variables to php via POST, which returns a different HTTP POST response in case of sucess or not.
Is there anyway to "read" HTTP POST responses with actionscript?
I am attempting to post 3 variables to an e-commerce page that was written in ASP.NET 2.0, but it is not working. I have deployed a simple .aspx page that echos the Request.Form object to the page so that I can see what it is receiving.When flash calls the loadvars.send() in Firefox I see what I would expect which is a list of keys value pairs.
View 1 RepliesThis code is being run from a frameset in IE8. When the new window is opened, the form data is not being recognized. It appears that the http header, "content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded", is not being passed into IE and this is causing the post data not to be processed. The data is there, IE is just doing nothing with it.
This code works fine in FF and Chrome, and in fact the correct headers are passed in FF and Chrome.
NOTE: The new page is on a different site, but i don't know why that would cause a problem with a POST and not a GET.
Flash code:
varSender = new LoadVars();
varSender.title = _parent.tCourseTitle;
varSender.notes = input_txt.text;
varSender.send("http://example.com/notes/print.cfm", "_blank", "POST");
I have tried adding the header to the send request, but that has no effect at all. The contenttype header is still missing and it still works everywhere but IE.
My current work around is to use a GET instead of a post, but that's ugly and it limits us in the size of data we can pass but for now at least it works.
I was just wondering if it is important to include POST as a method of sending loadVars to the php file. i was using POST before and i still ecountered some problems of receiving empty mails. Since i found an example which do not use POST or REQUEST method i dont have anymore prob. I just wanted to get another opinion about that as i wanna start using server side script with flash and i know that ill be using the POST method.
View 2 RepliesI was following 1 of the flash tutorials about creating a flash form and using .php to send the form to myself.I've followed all the instructions but upon uploading, the file just doesn't seem to work. I hope to have some kind of form in my new website.
View 4 RepliesI wonder if this is doable. Let say if I have an object:
var car:Object = new Object();
car.color = 'red';
car.doors = ' 4';
car.make = 'Honda';
car.model = 'Accord';
Can I send this object via Loadvars like this:
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();send_lv.carobj = car;
send_lv.sendAndLoad("script goes here", result_lv, "POST");
I am trying to make a simple POST using LoadVars. Since I am using an API there are some limitations though. The request must be send via POST with a JSON header. The body of the request should not contain name value pairs, but rather just a JSON object.
This last requirement has been troublesome for me because it seems like the only way to make a POST with LoadVars requires you to specify a variable name.

I'm using very successfully the "loadVars.send()", using the POST method. BUT I did not expect to see a popup browser window!? I can shut it down using another javascript, but get a confirmation message (because I didn't open up that unwanted browser window using js)... Is there any way I can call a loadVars send without the popup browser window? I am using: myVars.send ("Aurora.php", "POST"); Using: myVars.send("Aurora.php", "_blank", "POST"); or myVars.send ("Aurora.php", "", "POST"); gets me the same pop up window.

Example of code which would be used to send a bunch of variables to a PHP script via flashThis would require the PHP script to load when the data is sent.I want to use this for a Flash event calender which triggers more information about the event to appear in a HTML area of the page when an event is clicked on. The PHP file would be the same file that the SWF is embeded in so the FLASH file would reload the page with the variable sent to the PHP. The PHP would use this variable to select the right content from a MySQL database.
