ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Data Between .swf Movies?
Dec 1, 2006
A map of the US comes up and users will select where they work, before getting to the next page, which is a form where they fill out the rest of their contact information. The Submit button sends the form variables to a php file on a different server which then stores their info in a database and will take the "location" variable from the map (in the previous .swf) to send the user the correct demo map.
My vars from the form post to the PHP and a confirmation e-mail is sent to the user etc. etc. this works fine...i'm just confused as to how to send the location variable that was pre-selected to send along with the form.

I have been receiving great help for the past few days on many different things, and now I have another issue. I am creating a form in an SWF that pops up in a window over my main site. Is there a way to pass the information that the user submits in that form to my main movie? Or will I have to embed the form movie into my main movie? Is there a tutorial dealing with this? Also, since I'm asking, is there a way to save information to a text file using ActionScript or Flash, or whatever? I was thinking the other thing I could do would be to save the information in a text file, then dynamically load it in a text box on the main site.

I have a flash movie for drop down menus that is called by all flash/movie banner sections of my site. The banner movies use FlashVars to set the heading and an image. The trouble is that the flash menus also were set to use a flashvar to dictate the context of the menus and leave one top level menu highlighted to show the content to the user. I have not been able to get both of them to use the Flashvars functionality. The html page calls the banner movie directly and it can therefore access the Flashvars. The menu swf however - which is not called from the html page but instead is called from within the banner movie - cannot access the flashvars variables. That leaves me with two choices:
1. Either use a different method for passing the context variable to the menu movie.
2. HTML code calls the banner movie. I can continue using flashvars and get the context variable by reading it from within the banner movie - and then somehow pass the value down to the menu movie if that is possible.

I want to pass information to a Movie Clip (swf) loaded into a UILoader component on the stage. I need to be able to do this so I can synchronize the actions of multiple Movie Clips in the main movie clip. What's the proper way of accomplishing this?
An example of how I'd use it is when I'd load a video to the stage and I'd want to tell my audio player to mute the volume on the background audio.

I have two movies: m1 and m2. In m1 I set a variable to variable="yes". Now, I want m2 to read the variable and do an action depended on the variable (see the example below).
This is the AS in m1:
on (release) {
docufield = "background.txt";
}
And this is the AS in m2:
this.loadVariables(docufield);

Im trying to use dynamic SQL tables on my PHP server so I need to pass the table name to the PHP script. I don't understand why the Data Management system that sets up CRUD won't allow this extra parameter. It says it can only have one input: item. I can get all records, but when I try to create, update, or delete I get an error.
Or is there another way I can pass the tablename variable to the php file before I call any functions?

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'm trying to find a way of playing a presentation with product information and movie animation (flash or HTML with embedded movie) using a barcode scan as the activator. Ie, a customer would scan 1 of around 20 products on a barcode scanner, and product info and a movie would play. Anyone have any ideas of how this can be done. I've been out of the flash world for a while, so not sure if it has the capability. If someone has the ability to put this together, there would be some $$ involved. brendan.lake@circle-square.net

I would like to pass my SWF file an amount of data (textual).Is there some limit? I am talking about thousands of characters longI know the simple way of file.swf?data="mydata" but I know that you can pass data via "flash vars", when you embed the file in html(<object> How do I pass data in that way? Is it better to just read from a text file?

So I'm trying to make a project with multiple rss feeds on one page. All the rss feeds are in one xml file. this works fine but now I need to retrieve rssdata from each rsslink.
To do that I want a variable to be filled up with the rssData that I retrieve via an external actionscript file.
So in my main actionscript I would have something like this:
ActionScript Code:
var rssLoader:RssLoader = new RssLoader;
var rssData = /* THIS IS WHERE I WANT MY RSS DATA TO COME */

The movie runs fine and shows no errors, but when my browser opens forms.html the data is not there. I assume this is because I'm using navigateToURL(new URLRequest("form.html) and therefore opening a new instance of form.html rather than the one I've already loaded into flash. Am I right? and if so how do I open the pre-loaded version? Or....am I way off and have failed to understand something quite basic?

Goal: To build an Internet Mapping Site (IMS) using FlashScenario: Using Manifold GIS for the backend. It is a full scale GIS software which easily outputs data (geometry and tabular) into xml. It has built in IMS capabilities, but theWould like to build an IMS using Flash as the front end, and Manifold as backend. How would I set up something where the GUI and display were Flash, the user interacts with the Flash (Pan, Zoom, Selection, Query(SQL)), have Flash fetch that from Manifold via xml, and display the new extent, query results, etc.?
So there would need to be geometry data retrieval and display as well as tabular. For example the user should be able to use a "Zoom by Extent" feature where they draw a rectangle on the map, it returns the coordinates of the box to Manifold, Manifold returns it, etc. On the other hand they need to be able to query the datasets (simple sql queries).I hope this makes some sense. I'm a noob in many aspects to backend so I'm just trying to get a handle on whether this is possible, and what backend needs to be implemented in order to make this happen? Would you know of a possilble better method? Silverlight, etc?

I'm very new to flex and to flash in general. I walked trough one of the exercises in "flex in a week", specifically the MVC exercise which talks about how to seperate the view to a different component and later on send him the data as one of his fields.
I had no problems in the exercise and everything worked BUT, when I tried to do it on my own code it doesn't work.here is my relevant parts of the code:

I'm working on an interactive quiz where the user's responses will be incremented to a poll in a CMS. I have a url that automatically increments the answer choice in a poll, so I would like to use sendToURL to call the url without actually passing any data or variables. It seems to work with navigateToURL, but that opens a blank window in the browser (a complete nuisance every time you answer a quiz question).

So i a building a categorized menu of different foods. I have a class for "categories" (buttons) which essentially will return a string "salads", "drinks", etc. I now have another class "menuItems" for items within categories and this handles sizes such as "small", "med", "large", etc. My problem now is that when i return "salads", i want to invoke an array which contains all the elements of salads, send it to menuItems which will populate the menu. So far i have both the category objects and the menu object setup. I just cant seem to be able to send the data that the category object is returning and pass it to the menu object. Both of which are added to the stage as shown below:
If there was a way that i could say add all these classes to one class so that they can talk to each other that would be great but i dont know how to do this.
