Finding out my that my values are not loading the formfields in Firefox while they are loading perfect in IE i set up a small test.The codes are fine with IE and give a problem with Firefox and Safari

Code:
//Sending values. knop3.onRelease = function() { zend = new LoadVars(); ontvang = new LoadVars();
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
I have a survey in Flash with 5 questions. Three questions have input text boxes for the user's answers, and two have sets of radio button options. I want to send the answers to a PHP script and insert them into a MySQL database.The text boxes work fine, but the values for the radio box responses show up as "undefined" in MySQL. I'd like to know how to pass the values from the two radio button groups into the LoadVars object. The code I have is:
Code: submit.onRelease = function(){ var questionVar:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); questionVar.question1 = question1.text; questionVar.question2 = radioGroup1.getvalue();
I'm basically sending some variables to a php script from flash and then returning some values back to flash from the script. The problem is that the values returned to flash are appearing correctly but do not test correct. My actionscript and php scripts are below (just samples displaying the the mechanics of what i'm trying to do):
I get the following error when submitting on the contact page from my website in Firefox.Chrome does not show an error, but does not work. IE works fine and sends the email[URL]
enter_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, sendData); function sendData(evtObj:MouseEvent):void{const SCRIPT_URL:String = "http://www.greenclouddesign.com/php/flashcontact.php"; var request:URLRequest = new
The problem is that it executes #Second before #First, which means that the object is not fullly loaded but the code continues nonetheless. Is there a way handle this? I have tried using a while loop, but this is ugly and makes flash crash. Is there any decent way to handle this, does it have to do with better code structure/program flow or is there a technical way to make it wait? Also note: This code is executed on the server side, which means there are no frames involved.
UPDATE:When projects get bigger, this gets very ugly, especially when you are retrieving mulitple things from a server, you have to use very deep nesting, you have to keep repeating the same code, example for buying a serial:
I was trying to create a preloader that preloads content loaded by the LoadVars() Object. For some reason, the getBytesLoaded and getByetesTotal variables of the LoadVars object kept retuning a null value. Below's how I do it:
PHP Code:
var news_lv = new LoadVars(); var url = "news.aspx" news_lv.load(url);

I have created a form which sends the inputted values as an email. The file takes a name, delivery address etc and also should allow a quantity to be input. There is also an option where a different delivery address can be specified like so:The code looks okay, with no compiling errors, but the 'user input quantity' does not work and when changing different address,
I've got a swf that has a form inside a movie as follows
_parent.contentMain (an instance of formclip movie)
inside the contentMain I've a form witha submit button with the following code.
=================================== on (press) { // send variables in form movieclip (the textfields) // to email PHP page which will send the mail this.loadVariables("email.php", "POST"); } ================================
In the same directory I've got an email.php file with the code as follows. All I get is empty result strings without the actual form variables. Am I a using the loadVariables command wrong?my server does support php most definately. Cause the email comes through just fine. Just no results in it.
=========================== <?php /************************************************** * * PHP 4.1.0+ version of email script. For more * information on the mail() function for PHP, see
We're trying to upload a file and submit parameters to an ASP.Net MVC2 controller from a flash application. Essentially though this is simply creating a standard multipart/form post with a file and posted params. In the controller:
public string Upload(HttpPostedFile file, string someString, int someInt, DateTime someDate) {
I have a Input text area set up for a contact form. I want the area to display "Email", and for the alpha to be 50%. When you click on the text field to put in your email address, I want the original value to be removed and for the alpha to reset to 100%. I've been able to accomplish this fine so far using the code below; the problem is that I only want the value to become blank again if the user hasn't entered in information yet (this way if the user wants to come back and change something, it won't all be deleted when the text area is clicked on). I tried using an "if" statement, but Flash seems to just ignore it and perform the function either way.
Here is the code that I came up with: email.text = "email"; email._alpha = 50; email.onSetFocus = function() { email.text = ""; email._alpha = 100; [Code] .....
One of the moderators, could you've a look at this tutorial: [URL] it doesn't works with me, maybe because I've 2004 so if you change loadVars() into LoadVars() it should work
I've created a flash banner in action script 3.0. I've attached it with html with swfobject.js method and with wmode transparent. It works in IE 6/7, safari, opera, chrome, but it's sometimes not load in firefox both 2.0 and 3.0. when i removed the wmode property form javascript. it works on firefox.
I have a main movie which loads a movie with buttons, a button is clicked and movie goes to second frame and plays an animation then at the end of the animation it loads the next movie. ToolShopAnim01.swf does not stop on the first frame. I can not figure out why. Sometimes it works, but I can't seem to find the cause of it not stopping!
Here is the code in that frame once animation stops. stop(); _parent.startPreload("ToolShopAnim01.swf");
The code below is on the first frame of ToolShopAnim01.swf. stop(); foundational.onRelease = function() { gotoAndPlay (2); } foundational.onRollOver = function() { [Code] .....
I just discovered that one of my old AS2 projects isn't working properly anymore in Firefox.I have a multiline TextField with htmlText that works fine in the Flash IDE, and fine in IE8, but in Firefox it behaves rather strange: each paragraph appears on exactly two lines, no matter how long it is! It always breaks before the last word of the paragraph, even if the whole of the line is shorter than the textfield width.
But this behaviour only shows up if the text is loaded in from an XML file! If the same text is simply assigned to a string, it works normally.
I have made a presentation with voice over, in which the images and audio files are loaded externelly from the folder where the swf was placed. the voice over files are in MP3 format, loaded with the script follows
mysound = new Sound(); mysound.loadSound("voice1.mp3"); mysound.start(0,0);

I am using XML to load an external SWF that has a form using PHP. (Tutorial from, also using XML box resize tutorial to load from with XML) The form works, as far as sending the email correcly, but it does not goto the next frame that says with back button, so it may be confusing to the user if it doesn't do anything when the click send.On the form it has this actionscript attached:
onClipEvent(data){ // show welcome screen _root.nextFrame();
I've created a form-like input to receive user input in the form of text in a frame. Now, I would like to pass that input into an external text file. I hope to get help to implement this. Let's assume that this app will be only used locally and not over the web.
I have created a main swf file which holds a movie container which other swf's load into. One of the sections has a form in it. When I preview this section on its own the form works, but when I preview through the main swf file (or online) the text fields cannot be typed into. How can I fix this? Files can be downloaded from;[url]....
I'm currently working on a flash site, which consists of a "Main" SWF file that has buttons to load external SWF files. I figured out how to make the external SWF files show on its own layer below other layers on the main time line of the Main SWF. I created a blank movie clip file on it's own layer of the main time line and used this to call out to it:This worked perfectly. The website so far works perfectly with each page of the website being an externally loaded SWF. The problem I came across today though, is that buttons and text fields within the external SWF files don't work when they are loaded onto the "Main" SWF. They only work when I open the external SWF files individually. I really need to figure out how to make buttons and the text fields within the external SWF files when loaded onto the "MAIN" SWF.
I first came across this problem when I tried adding a form that I created to one of the external SWF files called guestlist_page_swf.swf. The form works on its own when I open that SWF individually, but when I try to load that SWF file with the form as a page on my "Main" SWF, the mouse doesn't even recognize that the submit button is a button, and it doesn't allow me to click on the text fields. Here is the link to the site I am having the problem with:
processing_mc.visible = false; // Clear the form fields first_name_txt.text = "";

I've created an AS2 3D carousel It loads text values in the "content" section of the code below - including numbers and special characters into the .swf but.What I can't figure out, is how to get it so that the "Tooltip" loads the text into the movieclip, but can also have numeric and special characters in it.For example, I need the title of one of the icons on this carousel to be "3D Images," but only the "D Images" shows up from the XML text for the tooltip. The content when a user clicks on the icon can include numbers, just not the titles for some reason.I think it has something to do with the way that my text is loaded from the xml document specifically for the tooltip and tipText for the movie clip. Can numeric values be loaded into a movie clip in AS2.
