I have an xml file (externally saved) that is similar to the following:
[root] [main] [title]...[/title]
[Code]....
What I like to do is to get what's in [title] tag using HTTPservice, import it into Flex, and save it as array objects, and do the same thing for [content]. This way I can later refer the array object saying title[0] or content[2].
I have an Access Database (doesn't need to be Access, I can phpAdmin or mysql, whatever will work) that has a list of names. I want the user to open a Flash form and have the names load up into seperate input boxes for each name. The user can then change the names, move them, whatever, and then save the record. I want it to just overwrite the record. I donlt want create a new record. I cannot, for the life of me, figure this out. I have tried to find some tutorials but nothing makes sense. Is ASP a good way to go? I have been struggling with this for a week now.
I am creating a jpg based on movieclips. It saves. However, it is only displaying what it looked like on load. I allow for someone to drag or change colors and size dynamically. Is there a certain command or something that I need to say to update everything so the still will take the photo of the new dynamic content?
I got Adobe Creative Suite 5.5, and all the projects in company are made in 5.0. And i can't simply save by ctrl+s because Flash (thats concrete program i am asking about) want to save in 5.5. So every time i have to push file-> save as-> change from 5.5 to 5.0. I was trying to find somewhere, where to change it, but i didnt manage to.
I am trying to create a loop that changes the colours of my dynamic vectors inside my sprite however I am not sure if I putt the following var names in the right place in the end of my statement attached or if i need another variable :[code]
I am planning an eLearning project for an AS3 version of a family health history diagram (pedigree/genogram). A major consideration would be whether the diagram (created by the user by their inserting square, circle, other symbols, connecting lines, text labels, etc.) can be saved and re-opened for editing, so the user can build their family health history diagram, edit, change/add to it over time.
I've seen XML mentioned as a possible method for saving data and wondered if it (maybe by adding a server-side script-ASP, PHP) can save/re-open for editing, x,y positions of shapes, line positions, angles, length, type, etc. An SO could also work, but I'm not sure if 100 kb is enough for this data (if the Max storage is not changed in player settings, by each user).

I am working is CS3 and am experiencing problems changing the first frame on a graphic symbol. When I type in a new number it jumps back to the old one. When I try to change play once/loop/single frame setting it jumps back to the previous setting. I am trying to simply modify this on a keyframe in the symbol's layer on the main stage. I've experienced this on multiple occasions, but can't get the workaround this time. I know I can do what I am attempting. In fact, I do it at a couple of spots earlier in this symbol's instance without problems.
I did small program on which the user will type some data into array which should be later on saved onto server or to local machine as an xml file. Now I know that flash cannot save files on its own and it would probably need some php script or something. I've never worked with php and to tell the truth i couldn't fine any articles about this topic. Are there some examples that you can show me the way with??
I plan to create a level editor for the game I currenty work on. Thats no problem at all, but I have no idea, how i could save data for the maps into a server from the .swf and get them back at a later point.And I also would like to know, what kind of a server I would need. Are free ftp servers enough for stuff like this, or are they useless?
How do I save data from an AIR app to a .db file? I'm learning how to do an AIR app to take the strings from the user inputs textfield and generate a .db file that will be saved in 'My Documents' in the user's computer when the user clicked on the 'Save' button in the AIR app.

I have an AS3 document with roughly 200 individual elements I'm trying to save to the database. I just need to saved information about their physical properties on the stage.There are many ways to do this, but what is the recommended approach?
I create an area within the site where a user can manually create something from a list of objects, if I, say, wanted to save this data as a number of variables to the server ie- a new row containing all the data unique to that saved item, does anyone know the best method of doing this, I'd figure it'd be XML but resource seems a bit sparse in this area.
I m in between of my flash application. Actually its a MP3 player where MP3 files are dynamically loading in flash. I have to put a counter (total no. of times mp3 has played).
Can u please guide me how can I store this dynamic value in xml or atleast tell me how to save data in xml through flash actionscript.
I am trying to save user data and I keep on coming up with the same problem. The problem code is highlighted red in the ITEM.as file. The problem is that when I update the variable it updates the savefile also, when it should not! I do not have a clue what is wrong because I am putting the traces for the savefile in one right after the other so the code can't be executing elsewhere right?
SAVE.as
ActionScript Code: class Save_mc extends MovieClip { var nSaveAnim:Number = 0; function onEnterFrame() {
I want to save data my computer, that i got from playing my flash movie.
i'd prefer it if i'd be able to save the data on the computers of other people aswel, but i mainly need to save it on my own comp while developing the flash movie.
So want to be able to dynamically save/load data from actionscript.
the dynamic text is initially zero (0) and when i click the button it counts the clicks up to here every thing works right but...when .swf file previewed in html after clicks if refresh is pressed the number is going back to zero.i want to upload this file and use on webpage.
As part of a project I am working on, I would like to know if it would be possible to store some data in the actual flash file.
Let me make this clear now... I DO NOT WANT TO USE COOKIES!
I need to be able to save some data to the SWF itself, NOT to the local computer.
To be more specific, I need to store a set of URL's, but they also need to be added by the file, so...
Lets say i have a button that when you click, will make a text box appear, and you type in some urls such as:
[URL]
I then have a button that says "Save" and this will save these 3 URL's. I then would have the SAME SWF display these URL's (these will be URLs of Images). The important part is, these 3 URLs MUST BE READ by everyone who views the swf afterwards, so if I were to enter some URLS of Images, when someone else views the page, they will see the images that i entered. This is why it cannot be a cookie, as their computer will not see my cookie.
Even if the data cant be stored in the SWF itself, i will need some way to load this information where ever the swf is viewed.
