i'm trying to fill out dynamic text fields by adding to my url like so:url...if the url could link to the html in which the swf was loaded instead of to the swf directly, that would be even better... but that might or might not complicate things (i don't know)
View 8 RepliesWhen I run the flash from my local host (using XAMPP) it all works fine. But when I put the whole thing onto my online web server and change the URL to access the php file, its just coming back as "NaN" ...so why does it work on my local server but not the online one?
View 6 Repliesok I have a load vars function that looks for a txt file and grabs data from it, right now they have to be in the same dir. I'd like to have the txt in the root of my server and then be able to link from any dir in the site...I have: ("dataValues.txt")what should I add before it, I thought maybe a full URL, but no, is it something like ("../dataValues.txt"), basically I want to make the link global for the site - I dont have access to the files right now so I cant just try a bunch of stuff myself.
View 1 RepliesIn first frame of my movie I've got this:
PHP Code:
loadVariablesNum("produkter.txt", 0);
import TextField.StyleSheet;
var myCSS:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
[Code]....
and a dynamic textbox called "myHTML". If I name 'var' on this textbox everything works fine, but I want to write it in actionsscript instead. Where do I write that? (I have 3 different vars in the text-file)
i used this script:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
[Code]......
it gave me error like this:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property jumCust not found on String and there is no default value.

I have tried repeatedly to sendAndLoad variables from/to flash and php. The problem actually comes when passing the variables from php to flash, here is the flash code:
var dataOut:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var dataIn:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
dataOut.username = _level0.usuario.ss.s1; //passing the value of textbox
dataOut.pass = _level0.contrasena.ss10.s10; //passing the value of textbox

I have omitted some mysql code, but it would still work this way. Which is most odd is that when I test the movie in my computer it works perfectly, but when I upload it to the server it doesn't work anymore.
I have it when the user clicks on a link it loads the php ?page=portfolio, in portfolio.php i have a peice of code that writes "var=portfolio.swf" to a .txt file Actionscript loads the text file and grabs the var, which is sent to the preloader which loads portfolio.swf. The problem with this is the Flash cache, you have to open a new window to see the portfolio.swf loaded and the second problem would be clients fighting over the .txt file.
What I want to do is, eliminate everything on the client side (the txt file) and make it so flash picks up the vars from ?page=portfolio and directly passes that to the preloader.
I heard this can be done with FlashVars, its kinda hard for me to understand could some direct me to an example code of FlashVars that I can play around with.
i got this for my js:
Code:
SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>

document.write ("width="+screen.width+"height="screen.height)

i'm trying to read in the URL displayed in flash
if i do this:
url=this._url;
i get:
http://domain.com/myFlashMovie.swf
but i what i actually want is:
http://domain.com/myFlashMovie.htm
plus whatever i pass through the URL
e.g.
http://domain.com/myFlashMovie.htm?canUCme
I have defined two variables,
Example
x = 2;
y = 3;
I then want to load both of these variables so that they will look like this
(2/3)
/ is just a separator not a divide operator!
I want to load these two vars into a dynamic text field called loadText:
_root.loadText = "WHAT DO I PUT HERE";
i am having trouble loading multiple variables into a multline textbox. I am using asp which will output a recordset into flash. For testing purposes var0 should equal three names in my array. Flash is only reading 1. How do I set flash up to read that whole array(3 variables in one textbox)? I know Flash won't output var1 or var2 because I don't have those textfields with those variable names.
Here's what var0 outputs
[URL]
Here's my Flash code
Code:
loadVariablesNum("http://www.delusionalfx.com/exp/flash_asp/register/test.asp",0,"GET");
I have one flash multiline textbox with a variable name var0
OK I have defined a variable sayPHP Code:test="what should I do?" then I have a textfield with var name "test". Now when I play the movie it will display "what should I do?" in the textfield, but what if I put the textfield inside a button? It won't show! How do I change the actionscript so that it doesn't think that the field is in _.root??I tried this:PHP Code:button1.test="whatwhere button1 is the instance name of the button!ut this won't work

I built this site out in as2 and have to convert it to as3. It appears the same logic flow and coding just doesn't apply since everything has changed on an event level. The idea is to load thumbnails dynamically and upon clicking the thumbnail retrieve the loaded variable (i) in the array per the XML loop. I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong in logic flow as it keeps coming up "undefined" or pulling up the last one after the whole thing's loaded. I'd copy the exact code but there's a lot of variables. So I'll post this basic structure to give an idea of what I'm doing. The bold print is where I'm stuck in terms of getting a trace.

i have an swf called movie1, on the main stage of movie1 i have a mc that is named xpos,inside xpos i have a dynamic text box and it's value is asigned to the Var=clipX.to get the value of clipX i used this code in the actions of xpos like this:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
clipX = (_root.object._x);

I have a flash file which loads in vars from director. It then adds the values to a graph. The amounts from the string are inputed into text fields. the fields are named energy, waste etc. I want a textfield to output whichever sections that are over 5 saying "well done, you have excelled in water, energy...... I have got this working but am stuck on this bit: I am wanting to add an "and" before the last item, so it outputs as "well done you have excelled in water, waste and energy". Also if only one item is over 5 it wont add the "and". This probably doesnt make any sense, heres my code anyhow:
Code:
var summary_results = "2000,6,3,10,8,6";
var txtFields:Array = [Total,Energy,Waste,Water,Food,Transport];
var excelledItems:Array = [];
var theValues:Array = summary_results.split(",");
for(var i=1;i<theValues.length;i++){

i am trying to load vars from a text file into a load vars object.
var kitchentext = new LoadVars();
kitchentext.load('moccastext.txt');
Once in the object, i thought i could reference them like so
kitchentext.name
kitchentext.style
but i am having trouble doing this.
i have a textbox called displytext.
_root.displaytext.text = kitchentext.name;
doesnt work
I'm building a little application in AS3 but I need to get variables from PHP. I searched on the internet on how I should do that. It makes the connection, but it doesn't get the variables. It just prints whole my php script.
[Code]...
I think this should not be a big deal, but I do not get it to work. I got a "MainFlash" witch loades an XML with about 60 variables (Settings), in base of a paramater then this "MainFlash" loades another "FlashMovie" and this one needs, all, the same Variables too.
How do I properly pass all the Vars in the new/other "FlashMovie"?
U need to know I use LoadMovieNum to Level 0 I do replace the "MainFlash", cause the new loaded "FlashMovie" can have a completly different height and width ( ...I don't think it's possible to change the Document-Setting in a compiled swf, or is it? If this is possible I would not need to load a separate swf to Level 0. the main SWF usually ist about 320x180, the following can be 2x, 3x bigger...
var navChildXml:XML = <subpoint>
<text>XML(_nodes[prop].childNodes[inc].title)</text>
<link>XML(_nodes[prop].childNodes[inc].title)</link>
</subpoint>;
how to in this instance
the vars are not being declared
I've created a Flash interface that sends variables to PHP to place in MySQL.In Flash I have the following AS2 (abbreviated) ..
myVars=new LoadVars();
submit_btn.onRelease=function() {
myVars.username=_root.username;[code]..........
Invariably the else statement is deployed and a new record is inserted into the database even when the username and passwords (md5 encrypted) are identical. I've been on PHP forums and nobody has a solution, so I'm wondering if this is a Flash issue. Perhaps even though the username and password in MySQL 'appear' identical to what's submitted by Flash and md5 encrypted they're really not for some reason. I tried trim() and stripslashes() to no avail.
I have set something up for my flashvars. I have a form in html which accepts two inputs. This is then sent to this php page
[Code]...
how can I do this trick and keep different vars for each mc?
for(var i=0; i<arr.length; i++) {
var mc[i] = _root.createEmptyMovieClip('mc'+i, _root.getNextHighestDepth());}
i have two swf files, a preloader witch loads main.swf
in preloader on the maintimeline i set this var
var lang:String = "de";

trace(root.lang);
how do i get this var?
this should be simple as nothing but i just need to get a clearer picture here my PHP has this as final line

where $newPics is a number what do I insert in AS code to to retrieve that variable and store it as an AS variable?
I've surfed for days to find a solution to this. There are a jillion out there, but I haven't found one that works. Suppose I have the following
<?php
header('location:http://www.sleepydad.com?firstName=s...ame=dad');
// the above URL will house my Flash movie
?>
I need to get the values of firstName and lastName into my Flash movie to save as variables (ultimately LoadVars()) and pass as an ID for some MySQL tasks performed in my Flash movie. NOTE the value of the names are not constant (ie sleepy dad). They will change with login - each user having a unique name. I've tried modifying the javascript in my HTML - some.swf?firstName=firstName (in both Object & Embed Tags)

I am working on a project that uses PHP , as3, and possibly some AMFPHP.
The project allows users to upload and download images among other things. I have been trying to gather as much info about making things as secure as possible. I've got some good advise about using .htaccess files, and a few other tricks.
My main question at the moment is how to hide the "path" info from and to the PHP / assets / and to and from the AMFPHP sevices ...
Currently I have all the paths hard-coded in one .as that returns an object with the paths to any of the other classes that need/request it. I found this method to work well since I only need to change this one .AS , and it will branch out to the other classes that need it.
I'm not super worried about others decompiling my code, and they could probably "sniff" out the paths if they really wanted. I'm mostly concerned with allowing others easy access to all of my AMFPHP services or being allowed to parts of the site I do not wish them to be. basically I realize that things aren't gonna be 100% secure regardless, but would like to take precautions.
So to cut to the chase ... Whats the best- simplest way to obscure / hide the paths being used in a PHP - AS3 project ? ... I entertained the possibly of PHP includes or even a SQL database if need be. I rather not spend a bunch of time and money on questionable obfuscator software, unless there's a tried and true one for flash (not flex). .. and I currently do not have a SSL but don't know how critical - common this is.
Im trying to pass a huge string (12k) to my flash from the browser using the param embed tags.

[Code]....
The flash recieves the data just fine if its not so large. I know that flash can accept vars that are up to 64k big.
My flash does have a preloader for the swf but I think that I need some kind of LoarVars preloader for it? (oddly enough if I half the data size of the var's being passed in to the flash then it render's just fine in FF but does nothing in IE?)
