I'm trying to learn shared objects by attempting a basic function. I would like to have an .sol file remeber what buttons are clicked on by a user and assign an alphavalue for the buttons that have been clicked. Here's what I have..

I have a working shared object. The visitor types a password into an input text field and hits go. The next time they go to the log-in it pulls the shared object out and prepopulates the input text field. How can I add a "checkbox" (Remember Me) option to the process. I'd like the visitor to have the option of whether or not they want to be remembered.
My current code looks like this:
On frame 1 Actions Keyfame:
pw_babytalk = SharedObject.getLocal('babytalk');
if (pw_babytalk.data.pword != undefined) {
password_txt.text = pw_babytalk.data.pword;
}
stop();
I am making a game for the university I attend. I am having students choose between college and high school by two buttons to see if they choose the correct answer. Then I want it to display the number correct on a result page I will have them print out for the instructor of their freshman seminar class.Can flash remember if a specific button was clicked? I have each button with a unique name and could it tell which one was clicked to help me figure out results?
Otherwise, I was wondering if there was a way I could have flash keep track of "points" so I can display the number correct. Would it be possible if I gave each button a numeric value and somehow added up the numbers from each button to put over a total score of 12 (that's how many questions there are)? Could it be done in a dynamic text field?
I am trying to make my buttons do this (<-- Link). What I can't figure out is how to make the button stay red after the user clicks it and then go back to white when the user click on another button. Here is my file (<-- Link) so far. and here is my Code:

I've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash and AS3 to write an app for iOS and for Android and I'm saving XML-data using shared objects. Now it struck me that when I supply an update to the app store and the user updates the app, will the shared objects remain intact or will they be replaced? I'd very much like them to remain as they were.
View 1 Replieshow can i make a shared object save a user name for a scoreboard it works like this i made a mc that is the scoreboard and the scoreboard has text boxes in it and the game gets a popup when it starts with a editeble text i want that text to save on to a text box in the scoreboard mc how can i do that?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to have a local shared object in flash to detect whether a user is a new user or a returning user. If they are a new user I want to do newUser function and if they are a previous user I want to do a previousUser function. This should all be happening on an onEnterFrame.
Here is my code I have so far:
//shared object - cookie
newUser_test = SharedObject.getLocal("newUser");
newUser.text = newUser_test.data.title = "new user";
newUser.text.onEnterFrame = function () {
newUser.text = "new user";
} newUser.text.onEnterFrame = function(){
newUser.text = newUser_test.data.title = "previous user";
newUser_test.flush();
}
I have seen similar threads, but I am trying to recreate something I saw on a similar site where the user can record actions such as clicking buttons to produce sounds and stop the recording and then replay what the notes that they played.
I realize that I will need an array of some sort, but I am trying to work it out and I can't seem to get my head around how do replay actions such as the site example above.
I request my user from mic and camera setting on my website with Flash, but the remember checkbox does not show, so every time my user logs in he's requested once again for permissions, how can I make the checkbox show to avoid this?
View 1 RepliesI would like a Flash application to remember the settings that a user on a specific machine or specific browser has earlier set. This is possible, right? What's the most neat way of doing this? Using some kind of a flash cache?
View 3 RepliesI made a basic text editor that lets users insert predefined strings into the document with button clicks. What I need to do now is let the user define their own buttons and string values. For example I have a button that inserts "Hello" into the text. The user may want to create a button that adds "Goodbye".To accomplish this I figured I would create a .txt file called buttons.txt or something. i would readutfbytee, loop through it to create the buttons. problem is I know what I want to do but not sure where to start
View 2 RepliesI'm just trying to store a simple cookie that will remember the score for the next time the user plays the game (the score governs if an option is visible or not)It all works fine until I close browser/reload the page, at which point the shared object seems to disappear, any clues?
Write:
Code:
var rem_score:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("score");
rem_score.data.score = new Number(score);
rem_score.flush();
The problem prolly lies in my write code but ill post the reading aswell just incase there is a problem with that too
Code:
var rem_score:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("score");
if (rem_score.data.score != undefined) {
this.remdscore = rem_score.data.score;
if (rem_score.data.score >=30) {
[code]...
There is another point it is read but it is the same sort of thing as the above.
what I meen is to get all objects and their properties, is it possible? How to do such thing?
View 2 RepliesI have been trawling around forums for hours now and the only was to save information LOCALLY in Flash seems to be using the SharedObject stuff. which is fine. BUT I am making a project which is meant to be entirely run from a memory stick i.e. portable. So, I was thinking it would be good to save the information from the flash to a SharedObject .sol file and then to copy the .sol file to the memory stick, then load the information back into the flash file from the copy of the .sol file on the memory stick!
Dont know if this is possible, but I need to some how save information created in the flash file stored on a memory stick (which will be text and possibly an image which would be loaded from the users pc) to a file on the memory stick and then next time the flash file is run, load all of the information back in!
I know all this stuff is possibly using PHP etc. but as I am running it from a memory stick on a pc which probable wont have internet access.
Is it possible to load data from another shared object from another flash file? if so how?

!--Does anyone know if it possible to save the local shared object(.sol) file at a desired location or to embed it within the flash movie?
2--Is it possible to create an image file at runtime from a flash projector file?
I created a very simple experiment to attempt to access the same shared object in Flash Player and AIR.
A Flash SWF creates a local shared object.
A AIR application (being tested from CS3 or installed) opens the same shared object.
The data does not persist. Is this theoretically possible?

What I have are several items on a stage and when they are clicked I want to capture their names so I can use it to play a sound file that relates with the object clicked. For example: say I have a square, rectangle, and a square on the stage and when the user clicks on "triangle" it would play the sound "triangle_snd". This is what I have so far and the error I am getting from it.[code]...

Is there a way to have the air application remember the last location a file was loaded from and default back there?
If necessary I suppose the path could be written to the local db, but even still, I do not know how to get the filepath of the loaded file.
flash site that has a login screen...i used Shared Objects to allow the user to save their password when they visit the site (like cookies)...this all works fine...however, to save you all from an exhaustive explanaition of why i did this, there is a log-in page for EVERY individual page on the site (there's roughly 20 in all).this way, when the user clicks Log In, it takes them to the specific page they are requesting, instead of just defaulting to the home page (god i hope that made sense).
so here's the issue:for some reason the user info is only being saved on a page-by-page basis...meaning, that if the user clicks to the photos page, logs in and then closes their window...then later, clicks to some other page, their info is not retrieved on this new page...i understand that i am using different flash files for each log in page, but its the same script referencing the same shared object (which from what i see creates a .txt file), so it seems like it should workhere is the code:first frame:
Code:
stop();
user_so = SharedObject.getLocal("user");

There is a small feature I have implemented that makes uses of the Local Shared Objects to work properly.
I wish to be able to help the user self-diagnose if he is unable to use the said feature because he refused access for this computer to writing local shared objects and give him instructions to work around the issue if it applies to him.
I'm looking for something similar to the muted property of the Microphone class [URL] or the Camera class.
I'm using a loader for people to use to upload their own images for a background, and I want it to remember the image the next time they come to the page, so is there any way to save the loader data in a shared object? I haven't tried just using something like
Code:
sharedObject.data.dataName=loader
because I assume it doesn't work that way.
-Alright so I have made a next, and a prev button. That navigate the timeline inside an mc "tabs_mc." This mc ison the the main stage.-When the next and prev buttons are pressed they goto 1 of 4 frame labels on this timeline inside tabs_mc.-When one of these lables is reached an mc "thumbs" appears on the screen / stage.-These mc's "thumbs1, thumbs2, thumbs3, and thumbs4" contain buttons that SHOULD be clickable.-But are not after the prev, and next buttons are press. They are before the next, and prev button are press, but not after.
way this is or even better how to keep these buttons enabled after the next, prev buttons are clicked?I thought of making some sort of boolean to tell the each button that is needs to stay "true" after prev, and next are pressed.But I'm a beginner so I don't know where to start.Heres the next, and prev button code:
HTML Code:
//Button Listeners
/////next_mc.buttonMode = true;
