ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Flash To Write To A Text File
Sep 12, 2006
So here is what i'm working with. I built a quiz for teachers to use so all they would have to do is edit a text file and then flash would read the file and generate the quiz based off it. The problem i have is that a few of the teachers are having problems editing the text file in the correct way. I wrote this flash movie to save the variables to a text file. I read somewhere that fscommand - save dosent work anymore. Is there some other way to have it write a text file to the local machine? The swf would be saved on their machines.

I have an application that writes traces with a timestamp when certain items are clicked or accessed. I need to write these to a text log file so that they can be accessed remotely.. The device the app runs on doesn't have a web server and doesn't run the flash debug player, os is xp. How can I send these traces to a text file? I noticed Arthropod writes to an html file, but I need to do this automatically without interaction.

I'm trying to write some text to a text file. Actually, i retrieved the text from the file simply without using any PHP, so i thought there might be a way to write back to it without PHP too. Is there?? i couldn't find any through flash help files though.. Anyways, so i started trying to use PHP for it. I wrote some code so that it took some text from a dynamic text box on stage, and would write it into a text file in a folder inside the one which contains the swf and the php file.

I am scratching my head because there isn't much out there even in the forum on something this simple.[code]...
Here is what I am trying to accomplish I am able to retrieve these variables from the txt file that is stored with the SWF file and display them, I am unable to allow the user to change a line "item" and then have them save it amending the TXT file.
So the goal is to have this list on multiple office computers so that you can go in add an item to the list it then updated the TXT file so the next user can open up the flash file see the list and even add or remove an item.
The TXT file is going to be stored on a private drop box folder that is available on all computers concerned. ( If it's going to be easier than putting it server side )

Users can write a text, modify it (in type, color and size) and choose a picture (which is loaded through a XML-file) for an e-card, then send it to whomever they want. But when they have made the modifications, how do I save the card, and then store it in a database?

I have a lot of clips that I am working on simultaneously, along with a very large project. I see that I can combine my work into a flash project, but I need to be able to write notes to myself in each .fla file I am working on. Is there something I am missing? I'd like to outline, check off what I have done, see what needs to be done etc.

is there any way to get flash (via actionscript) to write an xml file?
What I'd like to do is build a picture gallery which only requires me to upload images/thumbnails/description text to specific directories on my web server, these images will then be viewable in my gallery without me having to edit the code.
One way I've seen of doing this is to store the information about the images locations in an xml file.
Can flash/actionscript write an xml file based on the directory structure?

It is possible writing to a dynamic text field in flash using PHP without calling the PHP from the flash? I don't want use the loadvar function, just load a regular swf with a dynamic text field and write a php line and write to the field.
Like:
This should be the HTML code:
<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" height="344" width="256">

I need to write a ByteArray to a file on local disk with Flash AS3. The flashapplication is run locally (it's a projector exe).
I found the FileReference class with the save() function which works perfect. The only problem is, that this function opens a filebrowser and let's the user select where to store the file. However - i have the path already as string and need to save to this location without useraction (since i'm exporting a lot of files into this directory in one go and don't want the user to choose each one manually).
Is there a way to store a bytearray from a projector to local disk without opening a filebrowser?
I'm also using mdm Zinc, which actually provides a function to save a ByteArray to disk, but this function is for some unknown reasons not working. I already filed a bugreport, but I need to get this to work very urgently, so i'm looking for alternatives!

I am writing a program and want to take store user inputs into a XML document.
Example
Try for XML File's Existence
Catch Create XML File
I also want the options to: Write to that file Read from that file with Array usage
Security is no issue. This is a local file with no needed security.
How would I do this using AS3.
