I am having an issue getting sendandload to work with IE. It is working great with Firefox. I am not using https for anything, so I dont think it would have anything to do with what I have been reading.

If I send a request with NO xml, it works just fine. But as soon as I add xml to the flash XML object it fails. To illustrate this I made to simple scenarios, both of them hitting the following C# code:
Save.aspx (C#)
Code:
public partial class Save: System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
[code]...
I have absolutely NO IDEA what could be causing this. I've checked my IIS logs and I can see that it's returning 500 errors.
Most curiously is I can't get it to hit a breakpoint in the ASP.Net code when it fails. Even after reboots.
I'm writing a very simple flash app (AS 2) to sign users up to an email newsletter; the way it works is that it uses LoadVars to hit a (same-domain) PHP script via POST with the user's email address. The PHP script then passes the info through to another domain via curl to sign up the user.
So far, so good, and it works on roughly 70% of the computers on which it's been tested (it's being tested live from the website, not locally). However, on some computers, it doesn't appear that the LoadVars.sendAndLoad call is being made, as the email addresses sent from those computers aren't showing up on the subscriber list. I know that the PHP script still works on those computers as I've made a barebones HTML form that acts in exactly the way the Flash app does (POSTs to same PHP script with same variables, etc) and it works on all computers.
Here's the relevant AS:
submit_btn.onRelease = function(){
submitOutAnimation();
this.enabled = false;

I have a high score submit script, and it goes as follows...This is the actionscript:
Code:
on (release) {
var uscore:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code]......
We have tried many things, and we finally decided to just check for success to see if the vars were passed through. The first time we tried it, it worked, and then since then no matter how many times we try it won't work. I have also tried to just run random scripts when the page is loaded, regardless of what vars were sent, and nothing ever happens, so I'm under the notion that the sendAndLoad() isn't well.. Loading the page. It was working before, but it appears to have just stopped, we're not sure what we changed.
i am trying to get my serverside URL link from XML file to be able to POST in flash using sendAndLoad method.

I have a little flash application(cs4) to read xml files and to display the contents. xml files are being read using LoadVars::sendAndLoad() over http. It works fine unless I have an accented characater in the url.

I was googling all the evening trying to find a safe way to send data to MySQL db.
The method that I was using in past projects is like this (AS2 > PHP > MySQL):
[Code]...
This method is unsafe since it sends data to PHP with a GET method, the URL string insertDB.php?Name=Jonh&Age=18&Country=USA&Points=123 So anyone can just type in the address bar [URL]..and insert this record (for example with 999 points) into database.
I have a flash form with input text fields. I am sending the data to a 3rd party server. I can send the information via getURL but I want to send the data without opening a browser window so I am utilizing sendAndLoad. It works great locally but not through a browser (tested in IE and Firefox). I have verified that all the variables and urls are in the correct case, I have tried both Post and Get, I have tried network and local

Just wondering if you can use the sendAndLoad method of the Loadvars object to send "POST" data to a server then recieve the response in an XML object.
[Code]...
Theres a great tutorial for sending and loading XML here: http:[url]...However, its written in AS2 and Id like to have an equivalent in AS3. Ive attached my attempt, but it doesnt work? even though it doesnt throw any errors.
View 2 RepliesI'm attaching an MC to the timeline and within that attached MC is a LoadVars.sendAndLoad command. This works flawlessly when I have a few variables but becomes horribly bogged down when I have to send (and receive) lots of data. It actually freezes my swf until all the data is loaded, then switches windows <minimizes itself in Win XP> after it's all done loading.So I figure I need a way for the original attach movie to finish loading, before I send the PHP commands...
View 1 RepliesI'm using sendAndLoad to send data from a Flash form to a PHP script. The PHP script will search an SQL database and return the results, in XML, to Flash for parsing. The problem is I'm completely stuck on how to extract the sent Flash information with PHP. It's a single tag with attributes.

It uploads a text file to my server (I'm running the .swf file locally) and it works. But I need to load the contents of the file into my program, and when I do the special norwegian characters "� � �" turns into jibberish. So I wrote a script to change the encoding, but when I send the filename to the .php file, I don't get a response.
I am using the sendAndLoad class to perform a script through PHP and load the variables back into the swf. Using Firefox Firebug, I am able to tell that everything is executing correctly, including the PHP script returning the following variables:

How do I add a preloader for the sendAndLoad function.
View 11 RepliesIn the code below - fRequest_activate initiates a sendAndLoad - all fine and dandy. Thing is - I want to be able to return a value from this function that indicates whether the server response was satisfactory - and I can't work out how to to it.Because the onLoad function is nested within my fRequest_activate function it has all got a bit messy - and just doesn't work - how do I pass the status from an asynchronous server call - which at the moment is picked up by the onLoad callback, back to my original function? - or should I just approach this problem in a different way? All I want to do is call one function - and know if it has been successful or not in talking to my server.
Code:
function fRequest_activate():String {
var lvEmail_send:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var lvEmail_response:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code]...............
I am using sendAndLoad to query a database that returns over 30,000 records. While the query itself is executed in 0.43 seconds (says phpmyadmin) the sendAndLoad takes some 15 seconds to be executed in AS2. I am wondering if there is a faster alternative to this method.

I'm creating a login in Flash that connects to a MySql database through PHP.I'm using sendAndLoad() and the variables are being send to PHP without any prolems, however it does not seem to be returning any info resulting in a "invalid username/pass" message.I'm fairly sure the problem lies in the PHP but not too sure where! Do I have to declare the result_lv variable in the PHP somewhere? How and where?

From what I understand, LoadVars.sendAndLoad( ) is generally used to request variable data form a server. I am trying to download an image (which can be returned to me as a bitmap, jpeg, or png depending on my a variable i pass to the server in the sendAndLoad command.
Is this possible? If so, what object do I specify as the target object in the sndAndLoad( ) command?[code]...
I have a RESTful resource that gets looked up from a flash widget client. If the resource is not found, the ActionScript will create the resource by posting to a URL like /articles.xml with the appropriate data. If this is successful, the backend returns a 201 status and sets the HTTP Location header with the address of the newly-created resource. My understanding was that ActionScript, upon seeing the location header set, would essentially grab the document at that URL like a redirect and make it available to me in the XML object. Here's some code:
Code:
var create_params:String = "<article><foo>abc</foo><bar>xyz</bar></article>";
var create_xml:XML = new XML(create_params);
var reply_xml:XML = new XML();
reply_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
create_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
[Code] .....
The resource gets created as expected, which means the 'send' part works fine. And if I examine the results returned in a sniffer, or test using Curl, the Location header is indeed set by the server side. However, the Flash never makes a request to my server for the new resource and therefore when I examine the XML object, there isn't any data there. Is this not how sendAndLoad is supposed to react to the location header? I can't seem to find any documentation on it or other people with similar issues, so I'm kind of puzzled. If it doesn't auto-redirect to grab the new resource, is there a way I can pull the value of the location header into a variable so I can at least manually fetch it?

But it doesn't work, and yes I tried it in the browser.
Im building a reservation form, using actionscript and php. I use sendAndLoad to send variables to php via POST, which returns a different HTTP POST response in case of success or not. Is there anyway to "read" HTTP POST responses with actionscript?

Using a colon instead of an equal sign?

I also have dynamic text fields with the above variables assigned to them. why the swf is not receiving the data correctly?
