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'm making a piece of flash used for a website banner, previously i've had very little experience with action scipt as i've made various animations only having to use simple functions such as "stop()" and i've made a never ending scrolling menu also, but now i want to have an event that "onPress" a small animation is played where the mouse clicked the banner. What would be the appropriate script to link the .swf i make to the "onPress" command?

So i have a really nice flash gallery that i downloaded from a site but i am trying to personlize it. It uses a dynamic text (for the preloaders and the titles) which is post by this procedure :
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNe xtHighestDepth(),50,50,200,20);
target.my_txt.selectable = false;
};
So what i did was basically to create a new style (my_fmt) and apply it to dynamic style applied by default (my_txt) :
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNe xtHighestDepth(),0,0,200,20);
target.my_txt.selectable = false;

Anway nothing changes. The text is always the same (Times New Roman which is by default) I also tried to change de height and width definitions but no difference. It only works when i change the x and y position of the text.
I have a variable called intervalTime, which gets changed. The following code does not work:

i'm trying to dynamically layout a calendar using actionscript and i'm no good at determining algorithms to quickly and efficiently lay things out. i was hoping for a litwhat i want to do is set it up per the image attached:* where there are 7 columns and a varying number of rows.* the top row has the 2 arrows and the month and year display.* the second row has all the day headings, i.e. S, M, T, W, R, F, S* and the rest of the rows will have the dates.
View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip button with a dynamic text field inside. I am loading the mc dynamically to the stage. In Full_Screen mode static buttons including the full screen button work without a problem, but the dynamic button event does not trigger when clicked. In this simplified code belwo the dynamic button when clicked should change its message to "You have clicked button 1". This works in normal mode, but not in Full screen.I tried btn_cuePt_1.enabled= true; but without success.
Does it have something to do with not using the fullscreen events?
exp. stage.addEventListener(FullScreenEvent.FULL_SCREEN, s_function)
Structure of my button is: Think of it as three layers inside a movie_clip. I used an empty button on the top layer so I would get a pointer cursor, I used a dynamic textfield the one that should change after the event to "You have clicked button 1", and last but not least the button graphic.

PHP Code:
//global variables
var btn_cuePt_1;
//file definitions

I have some problems using dynamic textfields, spent hours to get it fixed but nothing works. Here's the problem. I've created dynamic textfields where visitors can enter their data, like name, address, comment and so on. My website appears on fullscreen when the web address' typed in. When it's in this fullscreenmode, I'm not able to type in any data in this textfield. When I leave the fullscreenmode I am able to type in my data. Also I've created a dynamic textfield, which loads this sent data from an external database. Now I want to add a scrollbar to this textfield, so all the messages that doesn't fit in the field will be visible. I've tried to create my own, without success, even the simple one in the componentspanel doesn't work.

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.

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.
Im developing a game. In some parts, i need to save some info on database (like experience, money, level, ...).
But i cant let people inject code on the server side script (php).
If i send the variables via post, the injector may create a form and send too =(
In php, i've tried to get the referer from where the data came from... without success, from flash, the referer comes null =(
If i make SESSIONs, the injector may enter on the game, after that, he goes to the form to inject the data, the session will not be erased =(
