I'm trying to send variables to a payment gateway (dibs) and need to post variables to the likes of[code]...
In creating a dynamic variable I'm doing this, which works. But it's not posting the values to the php-page. (The "normal" variables are being posted just fine, so the error isn't there) [code]...
I'm pretty inexperienced with actionscript, and I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out how to load variables from a file and send it to a dynamic text box. The content of an external file, "varload.txt", is "name1=John". Here is actionscript of my flash file:
[Code]...
Let a qualified-user place a dot on a country map and this dot will be shown on the map. When other users come by they see dot's and those dot's trigger a image.
1 Create a map, duh
2 Use the mouse to get the coordinates (_x and _y position) onRelease will be the selected coordinates.
3 Create a preview-scene were the qualified user sees the placement of his dot.
4 If oke, a image upload scene is triggered (the selected _x and _y coordinates are hidden)
5 The qualified user selects a image on his computer.
6 Again a preview scene, now with the dot on the map and the selected image.
7 If oke the user sends the coordinates and image to the server (i will use php-files to upload the info and a mysql-db to store the info)
I am stuck with step 2. In the attach file you can see what i have so fare.The trace messages are the data i want to send to a php script. And think i must create an array in flash something like:
Code:
coords = new array();
for (i=0;i<=v;i++)[code]...
You gotta see the attach .fla to understand this. I have the values collected in "controller" movieClip.
In efforts to allow users to save their progress in my application, I've decided to allow them to save. In order to do this, I'd like to create an array with all the necessary information, and send that information to a coldfusion (.cfm) file and process the information from that page. Is it possible to send an array instead of a bunch of url variables? It is possible (and quite probable) that users would exceed the query string length of most browsers.
View 1 RepliesI'm using the weather.com XML service to retrieve forecast data. I created an instance of UrlLoader and passed the entire HTTP address including credentials, location and other parameters to it. This works very well in tandem with the XML(urlLoader.data) functionality in that I get the result for the specified location ID. I then use E4X to trace just the nodes needed.
The tricky part is that I have to do this for 19 additional cities. I've done the initial work in the Main class, Main function, private function onXmlLoaded. I tried creating a new public function getCityName making the new URLRequest, tracing XML and adding values to my components. However, when I attempt this, I receive
Error 5006: An ActionScript file cannot have more than one externally visible definition.
How can I easily setup the URLRequest to request data for all 20 cities, and parse the results thereafter? Do I pass an array of location IDs to URLRequest, because that's the only part of the HTTP request that's different. Do I create separate ActionScript files with their own class and functions for each of the 20 queries?[code]...
I want to add Authorization header to my requests.I added the following line in crossdomain.xml of the server:
<allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="Authorization"/>
And still, the header is not sent (checked with Wireshark).
EDIT:the code of the urlRequest:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.url = this.uploadURL;
request.data = post;

Need to find a way to send a delete method from Flash Player (Flex). Currently it's not done by default (except for from AIR), but I am sure someone has augmented the URLRequestHeader to get it to work properly. I've tried this, it isn't working:

I have XML object formed and data ready to write to the server by means of server-side script. The code used on the server-side script is testing code available from the ActionScript 3.0 cookbook examples (by Joey Lott). It basically takes the XML object, parses it and writes some of the text node values into a textfile. What i want to achieve send the xml data from AS3.0 to PHP/PERL script, parse these data, write some variables from the xml object into a textfile on the server.

I'm looking to send a list of variables (say 6 in total) from php to flash and for flash to pick a random one and send it back to php when clicking a button.
I would like it to appear in a dynamic text box. That randomly selected variable needs to be sent back to php on pressing a button.

View 6 RepliesI am trying to create dynamic variables. Lets say: I read a file where I have: building, restaurant and hotel.
[Code]...
This gives me syntax errors.
var ["Dp"+ event.target.name]:Boolean = new Boolean()
I am trying to create dynamic variables.I read a file where I have this strings: building, restaurant and hotel.Then, will load them like
X = building.
Y = restaurant
Z = hotel.
Now I want to create variables like: building = 123; restaurant = "abc"; hotel = 2.5; So on how to use the value (building, restaurant, hotel) on naming or creating variables to use them later?
This is what i want to accomplish.This gives me syntax errors.Can you do something similar to this?
var ["Dp"+ event.target.name]:Boolean = new Boolean()

"variable = variable1" after a second it changes to "variable = variable2" .
I have an AS3 swf which users can upload jpg images to my EC2 instances which sit behind and Elastic Load Balancer. The jpg images are converted into bytearray data and sent using URLLoader.load(URLRequest)I make 2 calls when uploading, one to upload a large version, then another to upload a thumbnail version. A PHP script to which the bytearray data is uploaded converts this to a file using file_put_contents($destination,$GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"])Is it possible to combine these two requests into a single request which contains both the bytearray data for the large and thumbnail images and 'split' the HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA to create 2 files at the server. This would be better than uploading the bytearray for the large version then using something like ImageMagick to resize the resulting image into a thumbnail which I realise is another option.
View 1 RepliesI have multiple movieclips on my stage. Im bringing in figures from a xml file which i will used as my movieclip._y positions. So as the figures change in the xml file, my movie clips should hopefully float up and down.
I have assigned them a starting position, bring in the first array of positions and they float there nice. When i bring in their next aray of position they jump back to their first position then float to their second new position?
I have the code below but I need to generate it with a for loop. What is the proper way to do this? I don't initially know how many points i will have. I just want to create a for loop to loop through a variable that holds the point count such as "var totalPoints=10"
//1
var p1oint = new Point();
points.addChild(p1);

I'm retrieving variables from a DB via PHP via the URLRequest, and the formatting is set to variables (URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES) and matches the structure "myVarName=myValue&myOtherVarName=myOtherValue&... ".
My question is; is there a way, within Flash, to identify the variables and their values, without having to know their names?, are there methods within the loader class that allow this?, such as the variables count etc?
(I can access the variable "copyrightTxt." via the syntax: loader.data.copyrightTxt because I know its name, but I'd like something like
loader.data.variableSent[45].name = "copyrightTxt"
and
loader.data.variableSent[45].value = "@ 2009"
and
loader.data.variableCount = 98
I am building a simple swf that will load in variables from an asp page using a URLloader and URLRequest. The asp page loads in the current values from a SQL database but these values will change every second. My swf loops every 6 frames and loads the data. How much load this puts on the server? And when the server is busy might this cause a problem with the variables I am reading in?
Does AS3 run all actions on frame 1 before going to frame 2 etc? I don't know if this is the best way but my last variable in the ASP page is called Loaded and I test for it before moving on. My major concern is the load I am putting on the website but is this small? In firefox the status box constantly flickers transferring data from ... and waiting .. but in other browsers you can't see the activity.
I am trying to set up a series of URL links inside a cycling button. However, when I try to use the variable, the link sends me to the variable name instead of the URL. Below is a snippet of the code:
[Code]..
I need to send a byte array of data (its an image source) along with a bunch of other vars to a service.If I send the byte array using something like the following
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest ( 'http://www.mydomain.com/upload.php' );
var loader: URLLoader = new URLLoader();
request.contentType = 'application/octet-stream';
[code].....
I have one simple question. When you type this line of code in AS3:
var req:URLRequest=new URLRequest("somephp.php");
You get this error:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null.
So my question is how do you create URLRequest with non-direct link (so no [URL]).
This is my code to addChild and removeChild when clicking a button. And i know there is a way to make this more dynamicly instead of hardcoding it.
ActionScript Code:
// Yatzi-knapp
yatzibtn.buttonMode=true;
yatzibtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
[Code].....
as you guys can see it addChild with dynamics and its not hardcoded. difference between adding a movieclip from the library and loading a swf external?
because i cant get this to work. Even tho my code does addChild and removeChild i get error-messages in the output. The movie works fine but it isin't a pretty code
So, i've got an request that returns variables count i0 i1 i2 etc.
I'd like to put them in an array.
var imagecount = evt.target.data.count;
for(var i = 0; i < imagecount; i++) {
image[i] = evt.target.data.["i"+i];
[Code]....
I'd just like to use the i loop number as the variable name. What is the syntax in doing so?
I am building a Gallery/Case Study application and I am running everything off of XML, and I need to be able to add images/text to the application whenever, without causing any problems. On the sideshow portion of the application, I am putting dynamically generated textfields under the picture viewer, with the number of the current image, highlighted. Similar to the one here:[URL] the first slide haha this was one of the best examples I could find. Anyway I've created the textfields, that display the correct numbers (that is, from "01" until say "07" depending on the .length(); of the XML tag <image>), but that is all they do so far. I am setting the type in the textfields by doing this
Code:
_tf.text = "0" + myIndex as String
myIndex is a varibale incrementing as long as var i:Number is less than the length property of the XMLList I'm using to store the image URL's. I am adding the _tf var to the stage using addChild(); and multiplying i by like 20 or something to make the x values different for every _tf. My problem is that if i try to reference the myIndex value when the textfield is clicked, it says the value of myIndex is 7, which is what it was set to when the last iteration of the loop executed. Basically I need to be able to store a value somewhere, that is unique to each textfield so I can load the corresponding image from my XMLList. I've tried messing around with the .name property of MovieClips, but I'm not exactly sure how it works. I use it earlier in the code with my Loader instance, but I don't know how to use it with MovieClips.
In my movie i have a link button with following, simple, function creating a link:
[Code]...
lately i've associated a class file (.as) to my movie and immediately after, when publishing the movie i got the following error message: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: URLRequest. as well as a couple of other related error messages: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method URLRequest. 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method navigateToURL. when i remove the link to the class file, the problem goes away. also, i have checked the class file for mentioning of "URLRequest" and nothing is there.
I'm trying to create a flash program that uses it's own code to send and create images. Each square has a colour and that colour gets added into the array. A black, then grey, then white is:
filecode = ["Bl", "Gr", "Wh"];
That works fine, but when I try to paste it into an Input text box it will only fill in the first part of the array.
filecode = ["Bl,Gr,Wh"];
So the program has NO idea what I want.The only ways I can think of fixing this is by putting in 402 text boxes to suit every box...But every one of them needs a Variable Name.Or by sending the information straight into the array. But this way you are just looking at what you just drew, and that is not at ALL practical.
I have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?
