On load I want to read some attribute information including x, y coords for elements that will be positioned on the stage accordingly.
On moving elements to a new position I want the new coordinates to be written back to the XML file.
I understand AS can read the XML file OK but not write native. A php script is required to perform the write.
I'm trying to read a XML file and output the values, but i'm getting a 1120: Access of undefined property URLRequest. error.

View 3 RepliesI was wondering so long that how can people analyze the trait of each file extension (of course open it in notepad is not readable) For example, I want to write a program that can read everything from .fla file like timeline, movie clips, position of each MCs or all the motion tween values. And get the image embeded in it. (I'm planning to use flash as IDE for another project.)
(The reason that I tried to read proprietary format is I want to utilize their awesome editor. What I actually want to do is, I want to make an iOS game with cocos2d. There is a code to move things around in cocos2d but there is no decent editor. So I'd like to use Flash as an editor, then convert the motion to objective-C cocos2D code by reading the .fla file.)
I'm trying to save the contents of a XML file on a list, but I'm getting this error: 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before colon. Note: I think Im missing an import stuff, but I tried flash.net.List and didnt do a thing.

I'm a bit of a newbie with flash and Actionscript. I have been programming for a number of years now, but I have only been messing around with flash since CS4. I have CS5 now, and need a bit of help. I have a wireless device that I have made, I wish to make a flash program (potentially adapted to iPhone or Android) that sends and receives data (in the form of Word or Byte sized variables) from an IP address assigned to the device. Is this achievable?
View 1 RepliesAnother Adobe AIR question for you: Can we write files to the file system and leave them as read-only in Adobe AIR? In the future, we would overwrite these files (or delete them and write a new one).
Update: I tried the following approach, but I was still able to open the file, edit, and save to the file system after the process executed.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to zip/compress assets files into binary or .bin format through Actionscript or AIR? The compressed file will be in binary and can only be read by Actionscript which then parses the file.
Right now I am only able to read/write zip files using nochump's amazing library. I tried using AIR to write the bytes to disk and save it as filename.bin but I am still able to read filename.bin using 7-zip.
The objective is to protect my asset files as much as possible. Are there any other ways?

I have two variables that I would like to store in a remote data file which can be accessed by my Flash file. It is for a voting system, so the first variable would be a counter that is incremented each time a user votes, and the second would be the total rating. The average rating would then be calculated from these.
How would one store, retrieve, and then update these variables from the data file?
I can create the system within a single Flash file for a single session, but obviously I'd like multiple users opening the file simultaneously to be able to access the data and update it.
I think it can only access the network but not local file system, but from internet some people said it can in the newest version, can anybody confirm? It can reach arbitrarily file or just a specific location?

I'm working on this flash game right now and I need to implement a simple players database...
It needs to be both read and writable . Meaning, when the player register to save his character information , he needs to key in his email and a password and create an account. The account shall store that player's life amount, ammunition etc . All the infos are stored on an external file and retrieved again when the player logins to the game with the email as his login ID. Security issues are not the biggest concern here because its not exactly meant to be an online game and I don't think hacking would be something I need to worry about ^^'''
I've tried Xml with AS, but I realised that, that alone canot allow me to write the player's info into the xml file.
