View 2 RepliesI will be creating a program to use for data entry. I'll be studying zebras in kenya and I won't have the internet there as I'm recording the data. I'd like to be able to send the data I generate in flash to an external text file. I understand I need some sort of script to do that, but is this something I can run just on my machine? (I'll probably make the data into xml format).

ive managed to get info from a mysql database into flash in a combo box. i have a text field and i want it to load in the corresponding data when a new title is selected in the combo box.
View 1 RepliesI've been struggling with this for a few weeks, but I still can't get it right, and all the info I found is too ambiguous or uses AS2. What I want to do is to retrieve info from a MySQL database, using PHP, and send it to Flash; and in the other way, input info into the database from a Flash form. I want this to make a series of Flash tests for my website. show me a simple example code (on both PHP and Flash) of how to exchange data? PD: I know how to work with databases on PHP, so the only PHP code i need to see is the php-flash communication part.

it took me so long to write this tutorial Well, here I go... Section 1: Introduction So you want dynamic content on your Flash movie. Sounds simple, right? Well let me tell it is, and well, it isn't. This tutorial assumes a basic knowledge of Actionscript, PHP and MySQL. If you have that, it's time to move on. Otherwise, I recommend you do some reading on the subjects... Section 2: Setting up your SWF to receive external data Loading external data into an SWF is a fairly simple task. Although the external text file method is probably the most widely known, it is by far the clumsiest way to get data into your SWF. Of course, this may be your only option of your server doesn't support MySQL/PHP! But for those of us who are fortunate to have these privileges, let me show you how Flash can get external data without having to create additional text files.
Dynamic text fields In order for Flash to get data from an external source, you need to make use of dynamic text fields. Simply place a blank dynamic text field on the stage and make sure you give it a variable name (NB: dynamic text fields have both an instance AND a variable names. In this case we want to focus on the variable name). Note the name you give to the field's variable name, as we'll need it when we write our PHP script. Once you have a text field setup, convert it to a movie clip symbol. Attach the following code to the resulting movie clip:

View 1 RepliesI am a DBA and I provide data to the developers at my companyin XML format. The developers create Flash graphics and use the XMLto populate data variables. I want to start requiring thedevelopers to make calls directly to my MySQL databases so anytimei have to make a change to the underlying data, I don't get stuckgenerating an updated XML file for the developers.My developers tell me a Flash graphic cannot make a calldirectly to a mySQL database. They say Flash has to reference apage in which variables are defined, such as an XML, PHP, ASP pageetc. This page, they say, is generated from database info, butFlash does not directly make the call to the database ... thatanother programming technology (XML, PHP, etc.) does and has toparse the information, making it available to Flash.

View 1 RepliesI've been making flash based websites recently with a simple PHP and MySQL backed CMS.
