ActionScript 3.0 :: Connecting To Database, Validating Data?
Apr 22, 2011
I'm still learning AS3 and am trying to set up validating user (text box) input of 2 items (name and password) by checking with an SQL Server Database on my website.I have the ASP page set up using a standard request/response.write script. It works I've tested the ASP, and it works. The ASP receives the 2 variables, hopefully each in a name-value pair, and checks with the DB, then if the name and password received from the Flash SWF match a name and password in the DB, sends back a "YES" and, if not, sends back a "NO".I'm having difficulty getting the AS3 written and working correctly. Here's what I have so far that displays errors, causes a flickering when previewed and doesn't yet work.
I'm working on Flash project for which I have to conenct to Oracle database, retrieve data and display it.Is it possible to connect to Oracle database from Flash?
I have a website in which the content on the index page is controlled by a PHPMyAdmin database. I want a a flash "movie" at the top, that can take the data from the site, and slide-show it until a user clicks on a specific link, in which the movie will direct itself to the clicked event.
The page is for a booking/promotion concert company. They want a "Featured Shows", "Calendar", and flash file that all are interconnected. One page. Does anyone know how to do this, where to find tutorials, or so on? Note, i'm not wanting to WRITE data to the database, I just want to GET data to post on the flash file.
I am writing a large flex app that has to connect to a database many times. I currently am using asp pages to connect, but I would like to use the most efficient option. What do you think is the best way to connect to a database from a flex app?
I got the script to work perfectly, even got to register a few hundred members to the site. However, my old host had a bandwidth limit of 400gb so I had to move to a new provider. I transferred all the files with no problems, and even setup the database properly. My new problem is registering... I can login just fine using an existing account I had made. But I go to try and make a new account and I get an "undefined" error.[code]...
I'm developing a desktop application in Flash, but I can't seem to find any tutorials that aren't based on FLEX to connect my application to a database file.
Do I have to write my application in FLEX to use SQLite or can I create an AIR app in Flash and still use it?
What I am after is to be able to connect to a SQL database directly or via a ASP Page (whichever is easier) to pull out some variables and display them as text in a text field. Basically we have a news section on our intranet (stored in an sql) and I want to be able to pull these out and put them into flash. I have looked on the internet for examples, but everything that I do don't seem to work.
This is what we have... a new Actionscript developer (Me) and a seasoned Visual Basic/ASP developer. We've also got some SQL Servers... We need to write a web application (Flash) that checks user authentication (User Name and Password) against a SQL Server database before allowing the user to continue through the program. After the user completes various components of the eLearning program, a brief quiz will follow. At the end of the whole eLearning program, a lengthy quiz will be given and those results will be scored and stored in a database.
I need to know what is required to do this... this being the database connectivity? I've been seeing PHP/MySQL tutorials but is there some way to hook up into ASP/SQL Server? Furthermore, how exactly does this work? I've read that with PHP, flash will write and store variables in PHP which is then used to get results from the database. I'm not exactly sure tho. If any one can point me to a great tutorial that explains everything about ASP/SQL Server..
I am trying to connect to a MySQL database using PHP in Flash CS3 using Actionscript 3.I have written the PHP file and some AS3 code and it displays the information but for some reason it also displays the tags.[code]The picture below shows what happens when I test the movie.I also need to add buttons to move to the next and previous record and to add or edit the database via the Flash interface?
I have a task to make simple game that deployed as a facebook app using Adobe Flex. Like most facebook game, I need to show high score, compare score with friends and some other similar functionalities, which I think need some sort of database thing.
The problem is a had only little experience about database, only have tried simple things with MySQL and I don't know where to start.
I'm using the XML Connector to bind information to a List Component. Everything binds okay but when I run the MC I only get one item of information. The object I'm binding from the XML is called "Location" and there are a total of 5 listed in the XML. The five are Los Angeles, Seattle... The only one being displayed is Los Angeles. What do I need to do get the other 4 locations to display in the list?
All the web services tutorials I have reviewed always demonstrate how to setup the WebServicesConnector and bound to other input components on the stage (like the textinput component). I want to bind from a variable value in my Flash movie (ie; _level0.set_zone ) to somewheres in my WebServicesConnector. How can I set this up within my binding bound to value field?
how to send data from a flash to a database and how the receive it aswell. Im presuming you pass the data from the flash to a php file to the database when sending and call the data using a php file to the database aswell. What im trying to do is just have a button that will increment a number in a database by 1 and then display that information on a different Frame within the flash later.
Basically what i want to do if have a button pressed to increment a number in a database.

I was wondering how to send some data from as3 to a database. I did a little (in fact a lot) of research, and found something useful. But it doesn' t work.[code]
I have a flash project that connect with a server. I get all data from the server as raw tables as XML. So I have to do the server logics client side. (Don't ask why!)
I have looked for a framework or some code base that have solved this. A framework that can do mapping of keys asf. Basically a frame work that stores the data and handles retrieving of the data like SQL.
Ie. I can get user with the userid without iterating through all the instances. This gets more complex when you have more id in the same table.
So is there a data framework for flash out there?
(the HTML 5 sqlLight would be great if more browsers supported it)
initially when i want to load data from database, it will output all the elements from a tablenow i create a timer to make sure it will query from the database every interval to keep track of the updated content, however, the problem comes in...when i delete a data from there, the data was somehow 'cached' into flash, meaning, it wasn't updated at all.weird thing is, if i port the data over to xml and update the file, the flash would show the updated data correctly
I am a beginner using AS3. I'm trying to set up a simple Flash SWF validation of 2 text input boxes' data. In one box the user enters a username and in the second box they enter a password. This is sent to an ASP page which checks the name and password with a SQL Server database on my site. If their name and password are in the database, then the ASP send back to the SWF, "YES" and if not, "NO". The AS3 could then use an if/else: if "YES" then gotoAndPlay(2), or else display a message.The ASP script/page is completed. I've tested it with another program, and it works to check the DB and get back data.My AS3 is not working.e AS3 script to get it working.Here's the script so far. It get a trace of: [object URLRequest]. So I do not get any data back.
