View 2 RepliesI am making a site that is in Hebrew and English. It contains two .swf files. The 1st .swf file allows the user to choose whether he wants the site in Hebrew or English. When he goes to the 2nd .swf file via a link I would like the 2nd .swf file to already know what language the user chose. How would I do this? using getURL and variables?
View 2 Repliesso making a high score board i can use in my games. the tutorial i found (every tutorial i found, in fact) was AS2, so i've taking the principles in the tutorial and converting them to AS3. I'm pretty darn close to having it work. i have it successfully pulling the data in the php/database to the flash file and listing the contents of the high score board, but i seem to be missing something when sending new name and score info to it.
here is my test file: [URL]
you can see the high score list comes up (the info coming in is from when i went through the AS2 tutorial), but as you can see it's not adding the name and score you enter in the first part to the list.
here is code i'm using to send the info:
Code:
var sendScoreVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
sendScoreVars.userName = userName;
sendScoreVars.myScore = userScore;

i wanted to make the step of sending variables from flash to PHP. I just made a simple PHP script which takes in three variables and uses them to send a mail. So after searching a while i found something that should work, but when i tried it nothing happened, no error nor any email recieved. Here are my scripts:
ActionScript Code:
var myVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
myVariables.to = "name@domain.com";//can be replaced with your own email
myVariables.subject = "Test Mail";[code].....
i have an email box on my site. It has 2 input text boxes, name and email. It also has a few check boxes that i made. Now here is the problem. The two input boxes work just fine, however, i need it to also send a variable to my php file when a box is checked. send a variable to php that is NOT a text field
View 6 RepliesI am currently working on an online connect four game where the state of the game needs to be updated after ever move. i've had no problems sending variables from a php script to flash but i'm having difficultly sending variables from flash to php when trying to update a database. i am getting this error message:
The String passed to URLVariables.decode() must be a URL-encoded query string containing name/value pairs.
To try an understand the process and figure out what i am doing wrong i've stripped down both my actionscript and php files to the bare minimum but still it wont seem to work. here is my actionscript:
Code:
var game_id:String = "1";
var postURL:String = "updateMoveScript.php";
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
[Code]....
i know the php query is fine as i've tested it by changing the $game_id variable to the value i want to send.
i've tried changing urldataformat from variables to text and also messed about with changing post and get and about every different possible combinations of doing this but with no joy.
I load a new swf on level 0 to replace the one already there and I'd like to pass variables (an object) from the unloading movie to the loading one. I can't use cookies or shared objects. I remember reading something somewhere about using javascript to do it but can't find it.
View 2 RepliesI want to send variables from my Flash (AS2) movie to a PHP file that would then process the variables and echo them, but echo in an HTML page. Basically, I want to make my Flash movie form the equivalent of an HTML form, in that, when it's submitted, it sends the variables by POST and opens the PHP page for the PHP page to process and deal with, instead of sending the variables and loading the response from PHP into Flash.
I've been unable to use loadVariables in the usual way that I do it.
Actionscript Code:
form.loadVariables("myPHPfile.php", "POST);
Because that sends the variables to the PHP file, but then does not open the PHP file in the browser. Is there anyway that I can make this work? How can I make the variables send from Flash and then open the PHP page in a new browser window, just like an HTML form would?
how to send data via ActionScript 3.0, I just wanted to make sure that my code is on the up-and-up. I'm having some problems getting my data to send, and I'm wondering if it's on me, or on my client's backend.

function add_score():void {
var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(baseVar + "main add_record");

I am working on the contact form for a website that is done entirely in flash. The following is the code I have for sending the variables to the emailForm.php script that I created. The only problem I'm having is that everytime you send the contact information, a new web browser window opens up (it opens the php file in the web browser). I'm testing this on my local server and it works great, except for the fact that everytime I send it, I dont want a new browser window opening up.
View 1 RepliesHow would I send variables to php when I use AMFPHP? I'm trying to send mediaID and voteValue to my php file, but nothing seems to happen. I guess there's something wrong here..
View 5 RepliesSo this is probably a simple question, but for some reason, I'm having problems with it. I have no ideia why, but I suspect the fact that sending a xml with full "< something >" tags may cause the php to behave wrongly.So all I need is to send (from a swf as3 client) a filename and a xml. The php will write a xml file with the required filename.
Everything should be okay with the php side, because I tried it using " $_GET " variables, but whenever I try using the flash client, It just doesent work, and the php log says that "the filename variable can't be empty". Whenever I try some static filename (not using GET or POST), it works.
EDIT: Code added.
var xmlURLReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("www.url.com");
var test:URLVariables = new URLVariables;
test.filename = "01.xml";[code]............

I sorta asked about this in the Server-side section, but I guess the question is really more AS related....How can I send variables from a swf to a cfm page that the swf is embedded in WITHOUT having to reload the page.
I tried the LoadVars() Object, it send() variables fine but the page reloads, and it loops so I get a million windows opening...what do I do? I need to be able to communicate back and forth with the cfm files...
I've got a bunch of movieclips which are thumbnails. When you click them, they open a popup with that picture up big and a little description of it.

Code:

thisName = this._name
thisPictureNumberArray = thisName.split("Container")

Edit: and if I trace the variables trace(thispictureTitle); it works fine too, so they're being got fine.
I'll try to explain this as best as I can.I have about 30 .jpg files, 1 .swf file and 1 .php file.I want the PHP to load multiple copies of the SWF and have each copy load a diffrent JPG.
