how to refresh the dynamic varaibles using the loadVariables command? At the moment they are caching on the web - but it works the way i want it when tested in Flash.
I would like to know if it's possible todo something like this:loadVariables("script.php?id=<? echo "id"; ?>",0,"POST"); // the echo thing is nonsense I know, but is it possible to paste the $id, that I'm trying to pass to the external script, from my adressbar (browser)?
I dynamically load in a .php file from a server as XML.What I would like to happen is for flash to load the XML every 2 seconds or to whatever time span I choose.
Code:
var myXML:XML = new XML(); var XML_URL:String = "server.php?" + Math.random()*999; var myXMLURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(XML_URL);
i am trying to refresh a textfield ..withinin single frame..
I know It would refresh by giving gotoandstop(frame) command, since the textfield object is derived from AS3 class i can't no longer use the gotoandstop behavior to trick textfield refresh.
I'm currently using a scrollbar that I got here at Kirupa. I have my site set up with with 6 different navigation buttons, each button should load a new text file. To do this, I have a movie-clip with 6 frames in it. Each frame has this scrollbar on it and will load the correct text file depending on which button you click in the navigation. Everything works fine, except the scrollbar won't refresh itself for each different text file that loads. The scrollbar loads when the site loads, and then stays the same every time a new text file is loaded.
how to make the scrollbar refresh each time a new text file is loaded? I've attached my FLA in a zip file. Here is the scrollbar I used from Kirupa: [URL] Also, here is a test version of the site: http://www.bleedmedia.com/edrose2/index2.html And here is the actionscript used for the scrollbars:
I created a flash that's loading dynamic text from an external txt file. It's ON AIR flash that you can see on top right on [URL]
Now the thing is that I WANT THIS TXT CONTENT TO REFRESH AUTOMATICALLY... because I am actually loading txt file that's getting updated every few minutes, but flash content does not update, so the visitor must refresh page on go to some other page so the content will change again.
How do I make this work so that dynamic text in flash change whenever external txt file content change, without refreshing or changing the page.

I had an issue with my index.html testing on IE and the preloader just stalls on "loading 0%". he told me that locally the progress event doesn't have time to load and to try uploading it to your server and see if it works. It worked just fine. Rah Rah Kglad.
So today I'm fine tuning the swf/ fla to clean it up. Reduced some picture sizes and deleted unused files and reduced the swf from 4000 KB to 350 KB Rah Rah Gene. replaced the swf in Dreamweaver and re-uploaded with Filezilla. Rah ah Filezilla.
Everything working great and my preload went from 23 seconds to less than 3. So I'm real happy except for one small issue. Firefox and IE both do this. If I hit the refresh button, it stalls on "loading 0%" once again just like it did locally.
If I hit the refresh several times it WILL refresh randomly....2 times refresh......10 times refresh etc.

I'm using the dynamic text scroller from [URL] found at [URL] Here's a link to my zipped files too... [URL]
1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.
Ok, not sure where my other thread is, unless it needs to be manually approved by the moderators? If so, then my bad for making a 2nd thread.It doesn't exactly work... well when I use preview in CS4, it doesn't give any errors about not finding the file on the URL, I tested a fake URL to see if it would give an error and it did. So it is accessing the file perfectly. The chmod is set to 0777 on the settings.txt file.I don't understand why it's not "working" - all I need to do is view the flash file on site1.com - where the actual flash file is hosted on site2.com - I figured that it wasn't working before was because it was loading the settings.txt file from telltarget("..") - so viewing it on site1.com was searching for settings.txt on site1.com (I think???)That's why I need to get the loadVariables() working with a url so that when I view site1.com with the embedded flash file, that it will show it correctly.
ok. i would like to load a .txt file into a dynamic text box on which i have on the stage.when i did it i went from the C drive, but does it have to be in the library? i honestly have no clue as to what i am doing. unless, should i upload the .txt to my server and use a http:// for the URL? then for target is that the instanse or Variable name for my dynam. text box? and what does the method mean
I am trying to load a variable from a text file named "variable_file.txt"he variable in the file is "var" and I am trying to assign the word "value" hen I run the following code:

I have read a little bit about loadVars and loadVariables, so I am trying to read and write to a .txt on my server. This is my functions: (only Read works, but Send doesn't)
ActionScript Code: function Load(F, VAR) { var DATA:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code]...........
There are no errors or something; but the file is the same after Send();
Okay, so ive loaded some data from PHP into a textbox in Flash with loadVariables, but then found out, that loadVariables, havent got a way of checking if everythings loaded. So im gonna use LoadVars instead,This is the old loadVariables code:
i'm calling a php file, which is supposed to make an xml file. whenever i call the php file using this syntax, most of the time i get "cannot load file" in the xml loading section, but this updates the xml file.
[code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",this,"POST");[/AS] but when i do it this way. [code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",NONE,"POST");[/AS]
the "cannot load file" messge doesn't get displayed, and the file loads perfectly, but this doesn't update the xml file.
so everytime i have to first use "this" and then "none".
what can i do so that whenever php is called, it'll update the xml file, and still load in the swf.

I'm doing my portfolio in FlashMX using Actionscript. Everything in that sites has a preloader.
Anyway, in the actual portfolio section I use variables form a .txt to load each work (that way I can add in a more easy way new content). The .txt contains location of images, text shown, titel, and some other variables. Each .txt is aprox. 350bytes.
The problem is that if the variables aren't loaded fast enough the content of each work is shown wrong.
Is there a way to calculate getBytesTotal() for variables ?
