I need to send a variable (zipcode) to a coldfusion script and also load the cf page that displays the results (same script) in the browser window (_self) is getURL the appropriate choice for this? (never done it this way before). if so, does using POST in a getURL just grab any variables on the _root? where does it get its variables?
View 3 RepliesI have been tyring to figure this out for a while now and no luck. I have some AS2 code below which works:
on(release)
{
var sendText = "../Flash/uploadVoteandFeed.php?";

Im using a for in loop to grab the names of my mc on the _root timeline and push() them into an array named bricks. i then use a prototype function fade them in one at a time. The problem is that it only works to a piont and then stops.
I thought posible causes could be the time it takes to build the array as i do have 713 mc on my timeline.
this is my code i tried attaching the fla but its to big
fadespeed = 9;
function init(){
brick = new Array();

In the code below i want to change the _root.broj and _root.logo variables inside the function which returns values from .php file. Inside the function everything works fine and all values are correct but when i trace var broj outside the function it's still 0.

var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var broj:Number=0;
var logo = new Array();

I have a project that works quite beautifully right now. I have come to my next task. Creating swfs that are loaded into another swf. This newly loaded swf needs to grab some variables from the main swf's document class or global variables class that I have created. I have set the class path as such that it can access the classes as needed. I did not set a document class.
Structure of loaded swf:
core.swf -> loadedBackground.swf -> interactive.swf
1.) Classes are all located in a folder titled classes
2.) cores.swf is outside the classes folder and is linked to document class within the classes folder: BuildCourse.as
3.) swfs folder contains the loadedBackground.swf and interactive.swf
4.) How can interactive.swf grab variables from the main.swf after it is compiled?
I'm trying to grab the number of variables I'm loading using LoadVars.
View 5 RepliesI have an .SWF that is a "Share With A Friend" and the text fields are filled in and then the SWF sends the variables to sendToFriend.php and then the email is sent out.. The PHP is working fine and I have all the right codes to send that information from the SWF to to PHP, but the client wants another feature I can't figure out..
They want me to grab data from an XML and use those variables as well, because the XML will have the USER EMAIL and I need to grab the specific data from the XML and I can't find anything that does this..
I barely know where to start. Maybe a simple tutorial that doesn't just load the XML and display the content (I have found that), but rather something that loads the XML, then refers to a specific child and turns the text to a variable to get sent to PHP..
EXAMPLE XML
<client>Joe</client>
<email>JOE@JOE.com</client>
How do I load the XML and directly refer to the <email> information so my PHP file can grab "JOE@JOE.com" ???
I got a request today conserning .txt files.What I want to accomplish is to grab information from a text file and save them in variables (or an array, depends).Whats the best way to do this, and whats the do's and don'ts?I'm planning to use the LoadVars class to pass the variables through and i've got a working test, but isn't there a more efficient way to do this?
View 9 RepliesI've created a 'flashvars' tag in my embed code (aid=test), which I simply wish to add to the end a GetUrl statement, contained in within a button (which is on the first level of the flash movie). This is the code I've added to the button...

I mean, i have an ASP page that has 5 variables. I need to know how to make AS3 get'em.
I am just trying to pass some variables from flash to php with getURL
getURL("CompSummary.php?url3=" + url3, "_self");
URL33 keeps coming back as undefined
However I printed out url3 using dynamic text in the flash movie just to check it and it does indeed exist, and is defined. I also tried creating a string and passing that to getURL
var path = "CompSummary.php?url3=" + url3;
getURL(path, "_self");
still no luck.

I am trying to send variables from my Flash App to an ASPX page which receives the variables and outputs them on the screen. But he aspx script is not able to receive the variables. I am putting the variable into an object and sending that object using POST method through the URLVaiable class.
View 1 RepliesSometimes, multiple times a day in fact, users of my web application are submitting a certain form which has about a dozen form fields, half of which are hidden fields, and half of the $_POST data is simply not present in the processing script. Note that the fields that are not present are at the very bottom of the form. I know this because this raises a fatal error, and an email is dispatched to me which includes the post data. And of course, neither I nor any of the developers on my team can reproduce the problem. Flash is involved in the process, as I'm using a library called Uploadify to display a progress meter. Here is the flow...why some of the post data would be getting wiped out?
-User visits edit screen for a page in the CMS I am using.
-Record id for the page is put into a form as a hidden value.
-User clicks the Uploadify browse button and selects a file (only single file selection is allowed).
-User clicks Submit button for my form.
-jQuery intercepts the form submit action, triggers Uploadify to start uploading, and returns false for the submit action (manually cancelling the form submit event so that Uploadify can take over).
-Uploadify uploads to a custom process script.
-Uploadify finishes uploading and triggers the Javascript completion callback.
-The Javascript callback calls $('#myForm').submit() to submit the form.
This happens on multiple browsers (Firefox 3.5, 3.6, Safari, Internet Explorer 7, 8) and multiple platforms (Mac OS 10.5, 10.6 and Windows XP, 7).
AS3 documentation says that Strings in AS3 are in UTF-16 format.There is a textbox on a Flash Clip where user can type some data.When a button is clicked, I want this data to be sent to a php script.I have everything set up, but it seems that the PHP script gets the data in UTF-16 format. The data in the database (which is utf-8) shows some unrecognizable characters (where special characters are used), meaning that the data has not been sent in a correct encoding.
var variables:URLVariables=new URLVariables;
var varSend:URLRequest=new URLRequest("http://website.com/systematic/accept.php");
varSend.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;

I'm trying to send data via POST, since it's far too long to send via GET.
Here's the code I'm using...
pdfUrl.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
var vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
vars.html = data;
pdfUrl.data = vars;
navigateToURL(pdfUrl);
The problem is that it always sends as GET, and the data in vars.html is too long for my server to receive.
To make matters worse, it seems like AIR can only send GET via navigateToURL.
The issue with this is, I need to open a new browser window and send the POST data so that a script on my server can create a PDF file for the user.
I've got a flex app that is basically completed it uses Zend AMF to connect/supply data.My app does have a login screen which seems to work fine. Now I'd like to add another login form on my site that would allows users to enter in username/password. When submitted form should pass the data to the flex app and bypass the application's login.
