ActionScript 2.0 :: Change SendAndLoad Parameter Externally?
Dec 7, 2006
I am just learning actionscript, and I need some help please with a problem I'm having. I am borrowing the actionscript example for a simple login that comes with flash 8. There is a line in the code as follows:
login_lv.sendAndLoad("http://www.flash-mx.com/mm/login.cfm", result_lv, "POST");
The problem is I need to be able to change the url parameter externally so that the flash file doesn't need to be republished everytime I need to change the url. I need to be able to change the url with some kind of external config file, or parameterize the url somehow, I'm really not sure?

I have a component I have built in AS3 that takes a parameter which is likely to change with each instance of the component on stage. ie. the parameter will be different on frame2 to what it was on frame1.
The problem I am having is that flash will not recognise the change of parameter and redraw the component unless I do something like giving it a different instance name or putting it on a new layer. I find this very puzzling as I have the exact same component in AS2 and am not required to perform these actions to get it working.

I need a text box to change height according to an externally loaded number.
ActionScript Code:
homeText = new LoadVars();
homeText.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
[Code]....
This should set _root.contentMain.home_txt (the text box) to 400 height right?
Why is it not changing the height to 400?
trace (nmbr); does show 400

ActionScript Code:
myTextField_txt.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat("monotype", 16, 0x0CFF00, true);
This controls the output to the stage of my fetched text. It works great, but I would VERY much like to control this externally as well. The color for example. How would I call this in a flash variable to change the color externally? Is it possible with this code?

I would like to change the parameters of an object, or values like width and height, via javascript but I need a very lightweight method. In the end some of the thing that I want to change would be width, height and a parameters src value. So far I'm having no luck of getting it by id $('#test').attr('src','test.html') or the javascript method of getElementById().
What is the best - lightweight - method to do this?
An object being like this:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="500" data="http://www.thisembed.com" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />

Can we skip an optional parameter and assign value to the parameter after the skipped one?
For example I have a function:
public function Dialog(message:String,title:String="Note",dialogsize:int=99):void
{
}
I can easily call the function with a message and a title:
Dialog("HELLO","Intro");
Is there a way to skip the title and just pass in the dialogsize? I've tried it but can't make it work:
Dialog("HELLO",,dialogsize);
Is it possible to skip some optional parameters without using (rest) parameter?

Forgive me for this stupid noob question but I want to call a function (loadList) that originally gets triggered after a mouseevent from another function (addToXML) that does not have an event.
The loadList function takes info from a XML var, sticks it into an array which then gets loaded into a tile list and that is working fine.
The addToXML function when called adds elements to the XML var after which I want to call the first function with the event parameter so it refreshes the items in the tile list.
I know it can do this by creating a new array and loading that into the tile list in the addToXML function, but it be much simpler to just recall the function.
I have tried things like
Code:
addToXML.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadList);
but all the event constants I have tried give me error messges like "1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Function."

I was googling all the evening trying to find a safe way to send data to MySQL db.
The method that I was using in past projects is like this (AS2 > PHP > MySQL):
[Code]...
This method is unsafe since it sends data to PHP with a GET method, the URL string insertDB.php?Name=Jonh&Age=18&Country=USA&Points=123 So anyone can just type in the address bar [URL]..and insert this record (for example with 999 points) into database.

I am having an issue getting sendandload to work with IE. It is working great with Firefox. I am not using https for anything, so I dont think it would have anything to do with what I have been reading.

I have a flash form with input text fields. I am sending the data to a 3rd party server. I can send the information via getURL but I want to send the data without opening a browser window so I am utilizing sendAndLoad. It works great locally but not through a browser (tested in IE and Firefox). I have verified that all the variables and urls are in the correct case, I have tried both Post and Get, I have tried network and local

I'm attaching an MC to the timeline and within that attached MC is a LoadVars.sendAndLoad command. This works flawlessly when I have a few variables but becomes horribly bogged down when I have to send (and receive) lots of data. It actually freezes my swf until all the data is loaded, then switches windows <minimizes itself in Win XP> after it's all done loading.So I figure I need a way for the original attach movie to finish loading, before I send the PHP commands...

I'm using sendAndLoad to send data from a Flash form to a PHP script. The PHP script will search an SQL database and return the results, in XML, to Flash for parsing. The problem is I'm completely stuck on how to extract the sent Flash information with PHP. It's a single tag with attributes.

I'm having trouble with a sendAndLoad-script:

It uploads a text file to my server (I'm running the .swf file locally) and it works. But I need to load the contents of the file into my program, and when I do the special norwegian characters "� � �" turns into jibberish. So I wrote a script to change the encoding, but when I send the filename to the .php file, I don't get a response.

I am using the sendAndLoad class to perform a script through PHP and load the variables back into the swf. Using Firefox Firebug, I am able to tell that everything is executing correctly, including the PHP script returning the following variables:
&mySubscriberID=36&firstName=Bill
But the variables are not making it back into the swf file. Here is the code for the first frame of my flash file:

I also have dynamic text fields with the above variables assigned to them.

In the code below - fRequest_activate initiates a sendAndLoad - all fine and dandy. Thing is - I want to be able to return a value from this function that indicates whether the server response was satisfactory - and I can't work out how to to it.Because the onLoad function is nested within my fRequest_activate function it has all got a bit messy - and just doesn't work - how do I pass the status from an asynchronous server call - which at the moment is picked up by the onLoad callback, back to my original function? - or should I just approach this problem in a different way? All I want to do is call one function - and know if it has been successful or not in talking to my server.
Code:
function fRequest_activate():String {
var lvEmail_send:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var lvEmail_response:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code]...............

I am using sendAndLoad to query a database that returns over 30,000 records. While the query itself is executed in 0.43 seconds (says phpmyadmin) the sendAndLoad takes some 15 seconds to be executed in AS2. I am wondering if there is a faster alternative to this method.

I'm creating a login in Flash that connects to a MySql database through PHP.I'm using sendAndLoad() and the variables are being send to PHP without any prolems, however it does not seem to be returning any info resulting in a "invalid username/pass" message.I'm fairly sure the problem lies in the PHP but not too sure where! Do I have to declare the result_lv variable in the PHP somewhere? How and where?
