my question is how can i use Java Script to read the flash cookie?
I'd like to read or write browser cookies, using a flash client.
Lets say, If I have a website with users... And they can play all sorts of movies (the client). I'd like to have a way to recognize the user. Maybe there's a different alternative?
To read JSON using as3, are there any built in methods? It would be better if we get some code samples.

View 1 RepliesSo I've tried to build a small utility to view the contents of a JSON file in an easy-to-understand manner (for non-tech people).I have Googled far and wide, high and low, but every example that shows how to consume a JSON file in Flash Builder uses the HTTP service, pointing to a file on the web.Here I am, sitting in front of my MacBook, wondering why I can't make this work. In the documentation I've found (sort of relating to this issue), they always show Windows examples, and they seem to work fine:That doesn't work. I've tried some "resolve to path" syntax, but the HTTP service does not seem to allow for anything but file paths in quotes.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to read json data from a web service. The problem is that it seems URLLoader always return the data as XML so I can't decode the json string.
This is my code :
import com.adobe.serialization.json.JSON;
var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(<asmx, web service path>);
myRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
[code]....
not surprisingly i get an error on the json decode because as far as i can see using trace, i get xml data.Also i tried to run it on the browser, didn't help. Also tried to set the content type in the request to 'application/json', but it gave me an error.Even though i googled it, i couldn't fint what is the problem in my as3 code. It seems to me it should have worked.
I'm working on a Flash AS2 application that needs to post JSON data to a web service.In previous projects, I've used LoadVars.send() or LoadVars.sendAndLoad() successfully to manage this:
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
send_lv.data = JSON.stringify({some json object});
var response_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
response_lv.onData = function(rawdata) {
[code]....
In somepage.php, I can grab that JSON data using $_POST['data'].However, on this project, the developer of the web service requires the JSON content to be the BODY of the request (i.e., not a name/value pair). Is this possible with LoadVars?
I was wondering if someone could explain or point me in the direction of how to implement an API that uses JSON in ActionScript 3.0. What I specifically want to know is how would I grab specific information. The following is how I do it in XML but I don't know how I would do something similar in JSON as in getting the equivalent of an XML tag. For example with the twitter API I'd like to grab the text [URL]

Created an editable flex grid which exposes a method called getGridData() to javascript. I am using the JSON.encode() method of the [url]....library to convert the grid object's dataProvider into JSON before returning it.
ExternalInterface.addCallback("getGridData", getGridData);
public function getGridData():String
{[code].....
However, when I sort a column in the user interface, the encode method is failing throwing the following error
Property usingCustomCompareFunction not found on mx.collections.SortField and there is no default value.
I'm new to JSON. This is the .json I want to decode but I always get this error:

I have a pure ActionScript 3 problem, but the simplified test case I've prepared is in Flex 4 for better visibility (the source code is below): Since Flash Player 11 / AIR 3 support JSON natively, I've decided to move a multiplayer game, which used XML for communicating with server, to JSON. But I have a frustrating problem, that given two Objects like

I am sending a request to a server, and in return I get a long block of JSON.
{
"response":"success",
"assignments":{
"17733":{
"asnid":"17733",
[code]....
Is there a way to do this? I checked if the property was enumerated and it returned true, but I cant find a way to access this data.
I have to work with webservices in Actionscript. I found the following code that allows me to use JSON URLs that implement only the GET method. However, it doesn't work for POST methods (doesn't even enter the "onComplete" method). How can i "POST" JSON data using Actionscript 3.0?

For a site I'm developing with a user login that uses cookies to store the session ID, a separate section of it uses Flash to provide content and such. Is there some way it can access the cookies that were set the by login? The name of the cookie will not the be same every time, as it is randomly generated, as well as its value. I then need to send the name and value of the cookie back to a page on the server to do additional stuff. Anyone know how to do this? Note that I didn't write the Flash interface, an the person who did doesn't know how to do this.

View 1 RepliesIs there a PHP library/class which provides parsing capabilities for Flash cookie files (.SOL) by any chance? I'm trying to avoid writing one myself :)
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to get data from a website, but first I need to log in to the site using java. The script worked until now, but now the site installed an anti bot system. Until now the procedure was simple, I've created a HttpStreamWriter and submitted my details to the login.php page, then get the cookies and later, when I want to get data from the site, I resubmit the cookie from the login.php page, but now there is a problem: an anti bot system: I'm not sure, but I think this is the system: [URL] The anti bot system creates a cookie, called anti-bot and I can't access the page without that cookie, the problem is that the cookie is generated by a flash application only after the page loads so I can't get the cookie from the page?

View 1 RepliesI'm having a bit of trouble in sending cookies through flash (.swf file). Is there a way to always allow the referrer to be shown? At the moment it appears only to show in Internet Explorer, but not in any other browsers.
View 2 RepliesSo I did the tutorial about SharedObjects, and I created a login movie which works fine.
My questions are as follows: Can i use a shared object I created in one movie (call it "mycookie") in a separate movie on another page, similar to an HTML cookie? If so, what is the syntax?
I tried reusing the mycookie = SharedObject.getLocal("user_profile")and it didn't seem to work. =(
Also, I know that alternatively I can pass flash variables to the URL with the POST method, but I forget the syntax. Time is of the essence here (project due tomorrow) so I'd really like some help if somebody knows the answer..
me and and a friend are working on an application for the PSP in Flash 6. And we're looking for a code to save variables. We tried everything, can someone post a clear tutorial! The function, and the Javascript part, us ASAP Edit: is it possible to save the cookies to a textbox in HTML?
View 10 RepliesAdobe is, in my opinion, intentionally deceptive on a number of levels about the privacy-invading cookies that Flash stores on your machine. These are NOT the cookies that get deleted when you clear your browser cache. These cookies remain on your machine until you MANUALLY DELETE THEM. And Adobe know that most users are not technically proficient enough to even find where they exist.There is a good site that describes how to get rid of them here: [URL]

I'm trying to find a javascript method to delete flash cookies on a page, but with no luck.I know it can be obviously done through flash or flex, but the problem is I know nothing about flash, flex and actionscripts...So my question is: Is there a way to just load a prebuilt flash movie in a page, which just programmatically deletes all the flash cookies it finds?I could find some actionscript code around the internet and didn't look complex, but I don't know how to use it
View 2 RepliesGI have a problem where a flash player, when run through firefox, is not including the HTTP cookies. These are included when run through internet explorer.
I want to know if anyone knows how to force flash to include cookies when communicating with a flash server?
We have a flash recorder which connects to a red5 server. These connections are opened through a load balancer which offers a pool address. There are multiple servers in the pool.
The recorder sends data using the RTMPT protocol. This sends the RMTP over HTTP (this allows firewall traversal). To ensure data arrives at the correct server we used cookie based load balancing. If a certain cookie is present the load balancer directs the connection to the correct server.
This cookie is set when the user logs into the site through thier web browser. The flash player then includes these cookies in the RTMTP HTTP requests when communicating with the server. This ensures the RMTPT connection is opened to the correct server.[code]...
I'm running a selenium script that tests an authenticated application.
The application uses a flash cookie to know if a user is authenticated to the site. Mid-script I need to delete the flash cookie.
I've tried to script the flash player settings page [URL] with no luck.
We use PHPUnit/Selenium if that helps.
I have a Flash game in one html page, and then I have an html link ("next" button) in another page that will direct the user to the page that contains the Flash game. What I need to do, is to have the "next" button, tell a MC within the Flash game to go to the second frame, and save it as a cookie so it will be at the second frame whenever the user returns to that page with the Flash game. The MC is basically a button and the second frame grays out to show completion. Clicking the "next" button on the previous page verifies that the user has reached the end of that section, which should then trigger the MC in the Flash Game to gray out. I want to set it as a cookie so the user can keep track of their progress.
Anyway, my original thought was to use the Flash External Interface to allow the html "next" button to communicate via JS to the Flash movie, and to use Local Shared Object to set the cookie. Well, I have been trying to employ several of these tactics with no success. :-( I am currently working on a Mac, and need something that works in Firefox on both Mac and PC, and IE for PC.

There's no access to the HTTP cookies from within a Flash movie, but I now have repeatedly read that Flash Player is supposed to take care of session cookies automatically. I could, however, not find any documentation about this, and it sure didn't work with my Flex client running against a Struts backend using the default JSESSIONID cookie.
View 3 RepliesWe're developing a Flex-based component that's going to be hosted inside another company's product. Due to the nature of their hosting environment, the Flash movie will run in its own <iframe> tag.The Flex app calls out to our REST services via HTTPS, and authenticates with an HTTP cookie. This works beautifully in Chrome, Firefox, Safari... everything except IE. I compared requests from Chrome and IE using Fiddler, and noticed that they are identical, save for the HTTP Cookies. IE omits several, including the one used for authentication.
