Okay, there is something that I don't quite understand. I built a flash contact form in Flash CS4 and embedded the swf in my webpage using Dreamweaver CS4. I upload the files in my server but why it's not working? I created a test folder in my folder and it does work... (It doesn't work here) [URL] The problem is that I'm not receiving the information when the user enters and submits the information on the contact form. I do receive the information on the test link. I'm posting the Flash AS and PHP Code to see if anyone can point out any mistake that I'm doing.

Example:Lets imagine a html page with 2 swf embed inside. First swf has some UI, and second swf loads content.Is there a way to pass events or variables from the first swf to trigger stuff on the second? If yes, how?I would love to know the simplest way to achieve this.P.s- From what i understood from Lee's tuturial on swfObj, i can pass vars from html to the swf (using flashvars). Is there a way to pass from the swf to the html in a similar fashion?
View 7 RepliesI am creating an app in Flash Pro using AS3 for my wife to track our son's hockey progress. The app will have three sections: start, data entry, data retrieval.I have created the screens as separate classes to handle their individual functions. My data is stored in XML that I need to pass between these screens.I tried creating a separate class to handle my XML, but I am having trouble reading and writing to the new class. Is there a better way to handle passing this XML information around inside my application? Eventually I would like to have the app write to an external XML file then pull the new rewritten file back in. This code is in one of the .as files already, it's just not working yet.I added my files below (7 as and 1 fla Zipped) if you want to check them out.
View 14 Replieshow on earth you set about giving a checkbox in a form a varibale.
I'm passing the form to a CDONTS ASP page, and I have three checkboxes, which I need to appear in the retuened email as either blank or 'checked'.
(I have read the tuts here btw - but cannot get them to return a value)
My chk box is called 'chk1'
So my AS on my submit button looks like this:
on (release) {
chk1 = chk1.getSelectedItem().label;
getURL("http://www.holmes.7host.com/promise/mypage.asp", "", "POST");
}
My corresponding ASP page looks like this:
<% @language="VBSCRIPT" %>

I have 190 movieclips which display various types of information. When a user clicks on a movieclip, it has to tween larger but also send a string to a method. I'll probably e.currentTarget to use one function which contains a tween and I wondered if there was a quick way to pass string info in a similar way?
So, each movieclip has it's own value which can be passed to a method which will use that value. The only way I can think of so far is to have 190 functions which send the string data to the appropriate place. I'm trying to avoid that if I can.
I have a menu which is created from an XML file. I'm using LoaderMax to grab the data and do the magic:

So I'm building a little contact form in flash and it works, but it is passing along all of the font styling information into the email sent to the client. Kind of annoying. I want it just to send the plain text.
Here's what I'm using:
This code is in the actionscript, picking up the input text fields and posting them to the PHP file. It also tells a status box to update with current info:
Code:
loadVariables("send_email.php?flashmo=" + random(1000), this, "POST");
message_status.text = "sending...";
var i = 0;

I am trying to pass information to a many dynamic text fields when rolling over various movieclips that are generated using a loop. I have tried everything I know but can not get pahting to work prpoerly. The rollover works in that the curser changes by does not execute the lines of code within the in line function.(see red, bolded text (towards bottom) for problem). the Attached zipped swf is what it looks like as is.

I have some scrolling content (info). I've also made my own scroll bar.I want the scrollBar dragger to be positioned in relation to the info._y as the user scrolls info.I have created two vars: one that worsk out where info._y is as a percentage and the other that works out where the scroll._y dragger should be as a percentage...
Actionscript Code:
var scrollBarPercent = Math.round(scrollBar.dragger._y / [code]........
also onMouseWheel working too.I need a small bit of code that takes the % of info._y and moves the scrollBar dragger to the same % but in relation to the Stage.height...so if projectGalleryPercent = 50%, make dragger._y 50% of Stage.height using scrollBarPercent.
I need to make a projects that when a section is rolled over a info box appears. It is similar if not exactly like the link below.I have a solid basic working knowledge of flash and actionscript. Been working with Flash for few years, but it has all been basic work, nothing too complex.
View 1 RepliesIn FlashBuilder's compiler options (Properties->Flex Compiler), under "Adobe Flash Player options" there is an option for "Use a specific version", where you can tell it what Flash Player to link against:
How do I get this value at runtime? Note that I am not talking about the Flash Player version, but the version that the swf was linked against.
I would like to have a third party exchange english language text in a swf file with translation-text in other languages. They would like to do it via XML.

OK, I have a flash file which has a download button. This is in a php page. We have a php session in the header named sourceID= etc....
We tried putting the following url into the flash download button same as the php links on our page - [URL] echo (int)$_GET['sourceID'] ?> but it doesnt pick up the sourceID information.
i.e what to put in the php page and what to use for the getURL link in flash.

I have a page display people's name and when you click on a name information such as age, height, and weight are displayed. In Flash, can you create the same thing? I know with displaying data from a database you have to have dynamic text boxes set up to load the info but can you have it set up so you can load a name from a database and THEN click that name to have it load the other info?

View 4 RepliesIn Flash, I have the ability to save certain info onto the server. Now the problem is the user needs to be authenticated as admin in order to do so. I can't use sessions, since if you work longer than 20 minutes in the Flash application, the session is gone. The way I see it, I have 2 possibilities:
1. passing a parameter (bIsAdmin) to Flash from the Website.
2. Launch a http-get request, to get this value (bIsAdmin) from an ashx handler
on application startup, when the session has not yet exired.
In my opinion, both possibilities are not really secure... So, which one is safer, 1 or 2?
Or does anybody have a better idea ? In my opinion, 1 is safer, because with 2, you can just switch a packet tamperer in between, and bang, you're admin, with permission to save (or overwrite, =delete) anything.
Instead of populating the BitmapData class from an IMAGE.I would like to (within Actionscript) GENERATE some new BitmapData by capturing the Bitmap representing say, a TextArea component on the stage.In other words, sort of take a "screen capture" or "screenshot" of one of the components, and convert that into an image. Am I silly to even wonder if such a thing is feasible? Can an Air/Flex app "look at itself" in this way? Can it turn a datagrid or a canvas or a textinput into the corresponding image AS IF via screen capture?
