I have this project were I load PHP vars from a mySql database into flash and I have been facing lots of problem on it.But now I'm completely lost. I got this bug that my game only load php info if the broser is firefox. I tried on IE and chrome and it does not work. All my info does not load.
View 1 RepliesThere 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 an empty SWF that's sole purpose is to call loadMovieNum and start the project. Each loaded movie has a few variables defined within them - unique to those loaded SWFs. Instead of declaring all the variables in each SWF can I declare all of them in one place, in the first frame of the empty loader it all starts from? I'm thinking I can then declare a variable which each loaded movie can increment as needed for me.
View 2 RepliesI'm writing code that takes data from mysql that's processed by a PHP script. It's actually a bit bizarre, at least to me. Anyway, here's some basic AS3 code that's moving toward what I want to do:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var urlRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("receive.php");
urlRequest.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;[code]....
For some reason, the statement "trace(evt.target.data);" produces a whole pile of garbled text before the actual stuff that it's supposed to show Because of problem #1, I've had to include a throwaway variable at the beginning, otherwise the first variable I try to pass into AS3 comes back as undefined. This causes errors when I run my flash movie in the IDE, but when I run it from the browser it doesn't seem to have any effect.But this is the strangest thing of all whenever I make any changes to the database (and subsequently try to load data from different variables), the new variables come back as undefined. For example, let's say that I add another entry to the database, and decide to load students 2, 3, and 4 instead of 1, 2, and 3. When I do that, any new data I've added comes back as undefined, even though when I view the PHP output in my browser, it looks just fine.
And now for the REALLY bizarre part: I'll copy that output, paste it into my PHP script as an echo statement, comment everything else out, and my flash movie runs fine. Even though the output from the PHP script is exactly the same, it gives me errors.
I have created a swf movie file that containes the movie playback panel & a f4v video & I have uploaded them to a subfolder on my server.The whole site has a secure connection (https), but the page that i will try to embed the movie will have a regualr connection (http).
The problem arises when i do embed this flash video in a HTML file. in IE & Chrome it works and looks great, But in firefox it doesnt. If i clear my cache (as if i were a new visitor to the site) and enter the page, the movie isn't displayed at all...is shows "done" in the browser loading bar.
After about a minute or so (which i assume is the amount of time it takes to load the full movie), i hit refresh, and the movie appears fully loaded.
The movie is currently embeded in my homepage (via Iframe - for site protocol reasons), and if it wont load immidiatly from the first time a user enters the site, many users will miss the video (and get a blank white box in the middle of the site).[URL]
Flash will ONLY load when it becomes into view on the screen For example, it won't load a Flashmove that is at the bottom of the page INSTEAD: it will ONLY load when that part of the screen comes into view
- Older Flash, ver 7 and below, this isn't a problem
- Newer Flash, ver 8 and above: problem
I am trying to load variables from a text file, and have them available from then onwards in the movie, globally so to speak.
While I can read the variable values in a loader function which executes when the text file is loaded, I don't seem to be able to keep those variables available afterwards.

I have a Flash movie that behaves as follows:Movie loads > tries to load an XML file using URLLoader.load() > uses the data in the XML to load some images into the movie.The requirement was for updates to the XML file to be picked up within 10 minutes, so I have added a querystring parameter to the XML URL which is a timestamp to the nearest ten minutes, e.g.1-40**This all works for me as expected in IE and Chrome, and it works locally for me in Firefox. However, on our production server (IIS) in Firefox, the following behaviour occurs (by observing Firebug):First load:SWF loads > XML Requested and loads > images requested and loadSubsequent page loads:SWF Loads > no request for the XML (no request shown in Firebug)Firebug shows the following information about the XML file from the first successful request:

Whenever a picture is supposed to load it shows a NaN% ( not a number ) I'm guessing something is wrong with my loader scripting. The pictures still load but there is no bar so when A client loads the large high res version they have no idea if its loading and the blow up effect I have just shrinks to 0.0 on the screen. I've been up all night
Code:
stop();
btnx.enabled = true;
btnx._visible = true;
btnx.useHandCursor = false;

View 14 RepliesI am loading variables from a txt file. After loading in Flash, the format of the variables is weird.
My text file looks something like this:
var1=15&var2=10&var3=this is a test&var4=etc
It has been created in notepad.
When I load the variables with the command loadVariablesNum("variables.txt",0); there is a problem with var1 and var2. These are not considered as integers but as text and have the values "15" instead of 15 and "10" instead of 10.

View 1 RepliesI have a flash page flipping book that I bought at activeden. It uses an XML file to load in the images of the book to flip through.

View 6 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do is, create a button in Flash, with a dynamic text box, where I name the first one "botao1", the second one "botao2" and so on.
I managed to get the text I wanted into the text box by using an external text file (notepad) with the following code:
Code:
menu1=Text
whereas "Texto" would be the text appearing inside that dynamic text box.
I also managed to do the same in an ASP page using the following code:
Code:
response.Write(&menu1=Texto
whereas "Texto" would also be the text appearing inside the dynamic text boss, and it worked this way.
Now, what I'm trying to do is the following:
I have a webpage with a menu in the Header. I have the menus in a database and I'd like my Flash to access that database and write the all the menu names inside the dynamic text boxes.

- send a string to a php file and save it on a text file
