ActionScript 2.0 :: Pulling Info Out Of The Database Using Flash?
Nov 27, 2004
i got the info all in the database and then i have a php page that goes and retrieves the id that the e-mail sent through. here is my code on the load.php page so far:
now i've got all the records of value $card (lets say 8 for this instance) pulled into this php page, how would i go about loading them into flash with loadVars()? for the record names, i used this line to originally insert them:

I have a list of items in a database as well as images in a directory folder. I am looking for a flash app that can pull from the database to display the info and also the images and scroll this info vertically with associated links. I need to change this for each client by adding their unique "ID" in the code so their information pulls in correctly.
I am a pretty big newb- my challenge is get a flash page to look to a database and check for updates constantly (in the realm of 1update/second) then pull new data as it is added.
Got a client that says that Flash ( a panel that is pulling information from a database and simply displaying it in text field.) is not working in IE7. I told them that this is impossible as Flash is completely crossbrowser compatible. Am I missing something?? Is it a possibility?
im developing a game at the moment in flash that relies on flash remoting.I'm not great with flash remoting so ive managed to combine my flash game with a flash remoting tutorial. The tutorial pulls info off of my MySQL and works by putting it into a DataGrid. Im now just looking for a way to pull each piece of info out and into a variable. Heres some of the code:[code]I tried putting the info into and array but obviusly its returning an error due to the fact that r.result is a object.Im just looking for a way of pulling info out of the grid and into seperate variables.
I am currently trying to modify a hangman game I found on here (URL...). I'm not very good at actionscript and hopefully this will be a good exercise to learn more - I really want to learn how to make games. I have seen hangman games that include clues for words, but the only games I can find that I can read the source in don't have a clue field, and pull the words from an external .txt file. Is there a way of also pulling phrases to be as clues from these files? I could just create another .txt file and make it a new variable, but of course I would have the problem of it not matching the word. I hope i made sense.
I'm not sure how to explain this, but why isn't this code pulling the correct image and icon file? It continues to pull the wrong info at the line 35, which makes all other data one node behind. Even when I delete the three locations below, it still gets the xml wrong. Why would it be doing this? I verified the xml data and made sure all the files were in the correct folder. For example, this is a result from a trace:
I have a page display people's name and when you click on a name information such as age, height, and weight are displayed. In Flash, can you create the same thing? I know with displaying data from a database you have to have dynamic text boxes set up to load the info but can you have it set up so you can load a name from a database and THEN click that name to have it load the other info?
I need help to make a form (in Flash) that submits info to a database, and then displays it in Flash. Even better, submits the info to a Flash-made database.
I have created a site for my relative's garden. They have already registered there location and info with google maps and I have already installed the api in the site. I also, already have the map located on their location with an pin over it, but I was trying to figure out how to make the map pull the information that pops up when you click that pin. Do I need to create that myself or is there a way I can pull that from google? Here is a link to the site: [URL]
I am trying to get a .asp example file from an actionscripting book to work, but it keeps telling me that there is an error trying to open the .asp page on my server.I uploaded the .asp file, and the access file onto my server, but it is not communicating.Are there any browswer settings or web-hosting settings I should be aware of before I try to send and receive information from a database? Also, I eliminated one variable. In another document, I was able to pull information from a text file from my web server without any problems.

Case1: When a client makes a remoteObject request ie to save some Info... A call is made to Java SAVE_INFO method. If request failed ie came back to FaultHandler ( we save the info in an arrayCollection).Later we call SAVE_INFO again for each item in arrayCollection ie( if arrayCollection has 10 items.. We call 10 times the same method.. I know that's kind of stupid but we have no control over java to write a overloading method). Some times we see there are multiple records of same info in DB. I am not sure if this happens when looping over arraycollection and making calls or during normal one time call. We could not find a pattern to reproduce. Java LOG level is at Error level in production. can't set to INFO in production to monitor all calls. We dont know if this multiple times saved record is, the one in arrayCollection or normal one.
Flex3 RemoteObject --> WAS 6.1 , lCDS 3.0, Java1.5 --> Webservice -- > Java (hibernate) --> Oracle 10gCase2: When application is left open and user leaves for the day and submits info the following morning, we see duplicate records in DB of that info.(No arrayCollection here. Simple straight one call)Flex3 RemoteObject --> OC4J Blazeds Java1.5 (JDBC) --> Oracle 10g.Recently one of our Testers testing case 2 application found this pattern and I am starting to think that may be in the case 1 also.. users might be leaving for lunch/break and resubmitted the arrayCollection after coming back. During lunch java might have killed the sessions for the client and after resubmitting 10 at same time.
I am building a dynamic menu with xml via php, mysql. Attaching clips from the library for each database row/xml node, etc. My question is how can I rebuild that menu if another database call is made and the list needs to be repopulated? I imagine I could create a clip on the fly and attach clips, but how could I get rid of the previous one? I'd like to re-use the xml object just write a function that either rebuilds the clip or creates a new instance of an empty clip and builds the menu with that one?
i want to intertwine php, MySql and flash. so i can make a flash movie display text that is in the sql database and a php script to change the database, php > sql = i can do but sql > flash = i can't do..i want it so the sql data show's in a text box in the flash movie...
Is it possible to create a database driven website using these alone? Or do i need to learn any other technology? If i do then what should i learn? I know j2se for the desktop and oracle SQL/MySQL i finally got the feeling that i need to learn PHP anyway along with css and javascript. So it is fine. Also another query. Which CMS should i consider? Wordpress or Joomla?
I have a database on a server and I transfer the data from it to a web site. So I need to build a flash grid on this site and to load the data on it. But the problem is that I do not know how to do it. So my question is how to build a dynamic flash grid wich is fill with data from a database? Is there a way to do it with action script only or I must do it another way?
I have some scrolling content (info). I've also made my own scroll bar.I want the scrollBar dragger to be positioned in relation to the info._y as the user scrolls info.I have created two vars: one that worsk out where info._y is as a percentage and the other that works out where the scroll._y dragger should be as a percentage...
Actionscript Code: var scrollBarPercent = Math.round(scrollBar.dragger._y / [code]........
also onMouseWheel working too.I need a small bit of code that takes the % of info._y and moves the scrollBar dragger to the same % but in relation to the Stage.height...so if projectGalleryPercent = 50%, make dragger._y 50% of Stage.height using scrollBarPercent.
I am building a userinterface for some industrial instruments which output some data to a XML spreadsheet. This is the only way I can retreave these data's from the instruments.
Now, I need to make a flash that can pull out these data's from ex. "A1" and "A2" in this spreadsheet...
Here's a screenshot of the XML as it appears in EXCEL:
...and the XML as it appear if opened in Dreamweaver: Code: Select all<?xml version="1.0"?> <?mso-application progid="Excel.Sheet"?> <Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
Basically I pulll xml data into flash and most comes in, but only the first set will show the name, after that it goes to "undefined". Secondly, I can't pull in the info.
I loop through two arrays and im checking their data, i have collison working for them but I want to add more A.I. by making them stop when they are a certain distance from each other. so i need a way to pull EACH object that is in the arrays x,y, pos and use that data. my distance var keep bouncing all over the place...
THIS is my code: //check events between 2 objects function CheckEventsEnemyFighterFighter():void {
[Code]....
P.S. i need some tips for my coding... like should have i used a break in these for loops?
I'm currently doing a project that has to be multi-lingual. I need to be able to use Flash Var's to locate the XML file.why the below code does not work?ere is my AS3 code:
var xmlPath:String; xmlPath = root.loaderInfo.parameters(encodeURIComponent["xmlPath"]); Here is my HTML code:
I have a quick question that I am not 100% sure on. In my program I need flash to recognise if the object it is pulling in from XML is an: image/sound/mvie or animation. In XML the tag looks like this:
Code:
<mult_file type= "image" alt="alt text">intro.jpg</mult_file>.what I need flash to do is read the file type of it - I know how to put nodes in but how would I get it to find the type?
I am pulling a blog into flash through an XML sheet. I have a clip in the library that gets attached per blog entry. The issue I am having right now is not all the posts are the same length so I am trying to adjust the clips background to the height of the post text box, but they are all reading as the same height so they aren't properly adjusting. I even have the text boxes set to autoSize = true;
Here is my code..the resizeBlog function is where I am trying to resize it and then I want to adjust its y property accordingly.
