ActionScript 2.0 :: Reading An Swf Which Is In A Protected Folder?
Mar 7, 2007
Say I have one of my server folders protected (requires username & password). Is it possible to read this swf file, say from another swf?Same applies to an XML file. If my XML file resides inside a protected folder, is there a way to read it from my flash movie ??
I have a Flash application that displays online e-learning tests. Once a user successfully logs in(via .net webservice) the app loads in XML files, images and audio files via Loader/URLRequest objects and uses the loaded data to render the test on screen.This all works fine but recently the decision has been made to put the XML and media files used by the tests in a password protected directory for extra security.I was wondering if anyone has any experience loading files into Flash from password protected folders. From what I can see online I could specify the username and password for the folder as HTTP request headers using a URLRequestHeader object and set the requestHeaders property of the URLRequest to this URLRequestHeader obj. But this only seems a possibility with the POST method and I am using GET.Also even with the POST method there seems to be issues with sending a HTTP Authorization header in player versions before 9.0.124Is what I am trying to do possible or is it not allowed due to Flash security restrictions?
I have successfully gotten my images to load externally and randomly into 4 different boxes on my stage. My problem now is with the code I'm using, you HAVE to specify how many images there are in the actionscript. My goal is to allow for future updates to be done outside of flash and all we'd have to do is add or remove images in the external image folder. Here's the code I'm using:
I am changing the flashvars variables v1=value&v2=value ect then after the flash movie runs I am changing the variables externally by javascript, so far so good.when flash first loads it reads the vars correctly.when I try to read them ( after the change ) it keeps reading the old values.[code]everything works except I cannot seem to read the changed FlashVars.
i am trying to create a flash movie for my browser page. i am able to import and export the movie just fine, the problem comes after i export the movie. As long as i leave the flash file in the folder it was created in things work great. If i try to move the folder or rename the folder it stops working. It acts like it cant find the flv file i created the flash with. if i rename or move the folder back where it was created things work fine.

so I have a Track system with some kind of protection. So to get some data from any URL you have to pass protection like this [URL] and then (in browser) you can see some pages [URL] (if you havent passed login youll get no content)so how to login and get data from page using flash/actionscript (btw I am triing to create an rss reader)?
as many of us is aware is possible to dowload youtube videos using AnyVideo converter or any similar software. The basic mechanism is that, when bufering a video, a set of images is sent to the client machine, that's because youtube videos are in flash format. Not sure which format, .f4v, 4fp . I assume is .f4v rather than .4fp as the video can be dowloaded.
Parts of me would argue that is impossible to make a totally protected video. Every time you see a video the stream is dowloaded in the local machine and thus with a software reading the steram and converting it to mp4 or either other format it should be possible to copy the video.
i have the url of a password protected xml, and i need to load it in my application. but i can't figure it out how. i did find an example but it was in actionScirpt 2 and i'm having troubles coding it in 3.0.
ActionScript Code: var _login:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); var loggedInXML = new XML(); loggedInXML.ignoreWhite = true;
why (in this example) the use of a protected functions is required. It is an Adobe example showing an audio mixer board.I included just the code of the main document.
Create a new folder named AudioStreams at C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 4.5applications. Open the AudioStreams folder and add a new folder named streams.

I am confused when should we create definst folder and when C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 4.5applicationslivemedia folder?
I have my flash setup so that it stores information in an XML file. It grabs the current XML file and then appends the new data to the end of the XML file. It does this by using the short PHP file below:
[Code]....
The problem is that I want to make it so people can't just go and grab the data.xml file. How do I protect the data.xml file so that no one can access it unless it is accessed via the Flash?
I have tried messing with some .htaccess settings but can't seem to get it to work. I was thinking I could create some kind of .htaccess setting so that the data.xml file would be password protected and only the swf and php file could have access to it.
