ActionScript 2.0 :: Local Connection - 2 Swfs Sending / Receiving Same Variable?
Feb 11, 2007
All of the tutorials I have found re: local connections seem to outline 1 swf sending info & the other swf receiving. Is it possible to have two swfs using exactly the same action script for their variables to effect each other? I've got two swfs with 2 different sets of buttons who react the same way on roll over. Once a button is selected it remains highlighted. I want to know if I can have a button in swf 1 highlighted but un-highlight when a button in swf 2 is selected?

Not getting data back into flash from php that queries mysql data, think the problem is with my as3 code here?The php works, the as3 posts to the php ok, its the returning of the variables to as3 that I am unsure about and seems to be the problem?

We are thinking of adding a feature to a main page of a flash site that I will be building shortly, but it requires sending data out to an API where it will be processed and send back to Flash.The form will need to post a number of variables to a URL and then interpret the response code.. is this possible in AS2?

I use a socket connection to share data between flash and VB. I check the connection in VB and send a message when my flash is connected. My VB tool then sends the data continuesly (about every 40 milliseconds or slower) to flash. Works fine. Now I have to send some data back from flash to VB. I can send the data without any errors in Flash but it never arrives in VB.

ok so when i need to connect a swf to some sort of data source on the server be it XML, a .NET DLL, a CFC or what ever so that i can load data from a database or what ever, everyone is always saying that i shouldn't hard code the connection string into my actionscript as anyone can get it and do malicious things with it. So how should i load the connection string into flash. if i put them on the server in an XML file or somthing like that then i still need to put a connection string into the actionscript in order to load in my main connection strings into the actionscript.
Basically i need to know how to load an external string into a swf without anyone else being able to get hold of that string for them selves. i am developing an app for somone and i need it to connect to a database and i need it to be secure. i have everything sorted except making the connection string to the database unstealable.

I want to create the following: Suppose I have 2 swfs open in an HTML doc. The first sfw has 3 buttons: red, green, blue. When I hover over these buttons, I want the words "red", "green", "blue" to appear respectively in the second swf.
I found out that I can use "local connection" to to this, but it's too advanced for me.

Basically, I need some help from mac users. I've made a portfolio site at: URL... and I'm using the 'Local Connection' function for communication between the thumbnail menus and the displayed images.However, I discovered that this wasn't working on macs... and after some digging, I found out that I should add the statement:[code]So, I added this, but I have no way to test whether it's now working or not as I don't have access to a mac. Is it right?

i have a very complex object, i wanted to pass on the object from AS2 to AS3 through Local connection. Looks like it doesnt accept more than 40k. Right now i am splitting the object and merging from AS3. i knew this is not so efficient enough. Is there any way i can share the object without splitting or any efficient way to achieve this.

Is it possible to connect to the same Local Connection more than once?
What if I have a Flash signature with same flash movie on the page 3 times and I click on the button on the first movie. Can the other 2 movies do the same action the first movie is doing?
I thought thats what LocalConnection was for but when the second movie tries to LocalConnection.connect it says the connection is already connected.

I am really getting stuck with the 'Local Connection' action script vibe. All the tutorials show adding text from one swf and it appearing in another, but to this day i still cannot find a way of rolling over a button and it triggering the rollover on a button in anther swf.
My theory is that if it is possible to add text to another swf...surely connecting buttons is possible..

I have 3 Flash banners on 1 page that run through a synched animation together. At the end of the animation, there is a replay button in each of the 3 banners. I want the replay button when clicked in any of the banners to call a replay function in all 3 banners. Is there any easy way to do this? Using localconnection?
The banners are already using a local connection for the syching of the animation, if that helps.

I have three swf's using local connection to communicate. Basically a top and bottom navigation communicating with a main module. All this works fine and looks a little like this:
Top_Nav:
[AS]
Actions.LINKFunction = function(){
outgoing_lc = new LocalConnection();
[code]....
As I mentioned this all works fine. Where I am having trouble is that there is one link that takes the user to an eCommerce area of the site that lacks the main module. It only has the top and bottom navigation. So the navigation is basically broken once the user heads to this area. By putting a getURL into the top nav function I can easily get back to index.html, but I can't figure out how to send the functions once the page has loaded. Basically looking for a way for the functions to execute after the new html page has loaded. So the user hit's the LINK button, the page index.html is loaded along with the three swf's and instead on the default movie's loading in the main-module, the functions in the main module corresponding to LINK are run.

Ive used local connection before, it always comes up as a bit fishy, but the best reulst i got was following the emaple in the help file, but it only works when the files are online, and i need the receiving/listening SWF to be online..and the sending should be able to work both from localhost and a domain,
[Code]...
The following example sends a string to the previous SWF file and displays a status message about whether the local connection was able to connect to the file. A TextInput component called name_ti, a TextArea instance called status_ta and a Button instance called send_button are used to display content
[Code]...
LocalConnection objects can communicate only among SWF files that are running on the same client computer, but they can be running in different applications--for example, a SWF file running in a browser and a SWF file running in a projector.

I want to retrieve data from a Database and display inside a datagrid in a Flex web application. The way I'm thinking of doing it is :
Send the Query data from .mxml file to the .jsp page using HTTPService. In the .jsp, connect to the database and retrieve the data using select statements. send the results back to the .mxml using HTTPService.
I know what to use but I have an ambiguity. In the (.mxml) I use xxx.send() to send the data. What do I use in the (.jsp) to send it back ? I know that I should store the results in an XML in the .jsp file, but how to do that ?

I have an mp3 player(AS3) loads in external mp3. I am trying to attach the flash local connection script to the mp3 script so that I can have the mp3 pop up in a smaller browser and it be controlled by the main homepage.
here is an example, [URL] select track 4, you will see it starts playing but also another small window pops up but its behind the main browser. this is then controlled with a 'Stop' and 'Play' function on the main home page.
thats what I am trying to create:
ok;
I have an example working for the flash local connection where you can drag a ball and it also moves in the smaller pop up window, see here: [URL]
So I have that working and I have the mp3 working, but I need to put both togther and cross over the flash local connection script and incorporate into the mp3 script.
What is the best way for me to send script information, I don't want to flood the thread with AS. You can download the flash lconnection files and the mp3 player from here!

I am creating a local app that is going to be a swf file. Is there anyway to check if the user has internet while they are using my app. I tried this, it works great if testing the movie from flash, however, It does not work when running the swf file independently. I'm guessing this is because it is strictly intended for air app.[code]...
