ActionScript 3.0 :: Access XML Data Through FileReference?
Jan 25, 2010
I'm creating an application that will run on users computers rather than online. In the app users will have the option to save certain preferences as xml, and load their preferences using FileReference.browse() to locate the saved xml on their HD next time they use the app.
I'm using the FileReference class to save the xml out which works perfectly, but I'm struggling with how to access the data of the xml once I've browsed to it and clicked 'select' in the dialog box.
Here's some simplified code:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.net.FileReference;
var fr:FileReference = new FileReference();
[Code].....

I am trying to use the load method of FileReference object to load the data and use it to display a thumbnail of the selected image.However, after calling fr.load(), fr.data remains null.I'm using Flex Builder 3.0.2 on Windows 7 with Flex SDK 3.4 and Flash Player 10 Debug. If I evaluate fr.load() in Eclipse's watch variables list, I get an error reading "No such variable: load."

I need to make a flash applet that automatically grabs a specific file on a user's system (iTunes XML file) and auto uploads it to my server. So far I have only been able to accomplish this with a user selecting the file, how to upload a specific file without the user having to go and find it.

I have an urgent task to implement in my project code. I can't able to access the new properties and methods which are present in FileReference Class. For load() ,save() methods needs runtime version of Flash Player 10. I need to include the flash player 10 in CS3 publish settings Version. Otherwise you can suggest how i can able to access the FileReference class new properties and methods without CS4.

I am using the FileReference object. I want to be able to save the local file data into a ByteArray. I know that I can use the data property in Flash 10, but I would like a solution that works for earlier versions of Flash.

server, the swf is in the same domain as the images directory andthe PHP file. It's exactly as laid out in the Unleashed book: (see ). However, I get an HTTP 406 error whatever I do. I've checkedfile permissions. I suppose it is some sort of security problem butI can't see what. I tried the same thing on my local PC apacheserver and there I got an IO error can point me to more details onthe FileReference error handling

i have a flash 8 movie that upload jpegs to a server side script. When hosted on an NT server, with a php script that recieves the upload, the FileReference onComplete event gets called correctly when the an image has completely uploaded using FileReference.upload. This when movie is viewed in Flash Player 8, in IE and Firefox on Windows XP and on OSX.
When the same swf is uploaded to an Apache Tomcat/5.5.12 server, with a jsp script to recieve the upload, then the problems start. The upload works ok on both PC and OSX, except that the onComplete event of the
FileReference object is never called on OSX. It is essential to trap the onComplete event for the site to continue with its functionality. (If the file takes long enough to upload (more than a few fractions of a second) the the onProgress event is called while its uploading on PC and OSX.)

I've got a job for a client that includes creating a flash movie that will contain a number of thumbnails that represents links to avi movies, powerpoint presentation etc. The thumbnails need to be updated and added to on a regular basis. Is it best to call the thumbnails from an xml doc so the client can update easily?In the flash movie the thumbnails will be presented as a horizontal slideshow that needs to scroll horizintally on
mouseover, and the thumbnails will also display a caption on mouseover. Is this all possible if the images are coming from an external source such as an XML doc.

I am developing movie with AS 3.0. I want to send a big array of data to MS Access using asp. Normally we were doing it with sendAndLoad method for the old action script versions. But now using with CS 5 and AS 3.0. so I have to use sendToURL or NavigateToURL or loader.Load.
But in this case i need to send large data so I can't send it as QueryString, and not want to use navigateToURL since i found that it carry data on its URL.
How could I retrieve the data from asp page and send to MS Access if I am using sendToURL or loader.load method?

I'm having troubles trying to pass data from an array inside a function and make it available globally:
Code: Select allfunction getDials_Result(dialAry) {
for (var i:Number = 0; i<dialAry.length; i++) {
trace(dialAry[i]);
}
[Code].....
If I put the trace outside the function everything is undefined.
How can I set this up so the variables are declared globally so I can get them elsewhere.

I need to access data from internet using :
insert_lv.sendAndLoad("http://www.datalocation.com/data.php", result_lv, "POST");
It doesn't work. I've searched about this problem and found it as security issue. It can be solved by using :
System.security.allowDomain("www.yourswflocation.c om");
But it only works if you put your swf in server (www.yourswflocation.com). In my case, my swf is desktop application. I dont put it in any server. How can i access the data from internet?

I have a class LoadXML which loads and extracts data from an XML file. I am using this data for my Main class by creating a new LoadXML class. I now want to use this data for my other classes but without having to create another new instance of LoadXML. Since global variables dont exist in A3, I tried creating get methods in LoadXML and then returning these values into variables in the desired classes.[code]
