I have a problem with getting a string from server. When I get the string, it is encoded and I don't know how to encode it. In the string are normal characters and instead of special symbols are eg u010d, u011b and others. Are there some function to decode it?

View 1 RepliesI'm working through a book called Foundation Game Design with Flash, and I'm finding the Flash IDE confusing. I've been programming for several years, so working with AS3 directly is far easier than trying to understand symbols and nested symbols and the difference between graphics and movie clips and scoping issues and all that -- when tied into the IDE.
How many of you who are making games in AS3 also use the Flash IDE? Can anyone recommend a resource that is AS3 heavy and Flash IDE light? I don't care how much time I may or may not save by using things like the timeline, I just want to understand what I'm using.
I'm attempting to use CS4 (PC/Vista, if that matters) to create a SWF file that will basically act as a "library" of commonly used symbols. This SWF would be loaded at runtime by other SWFs, which could then use the symbols within it, including all art and code assets.

Is there any way to do that, well bone tool is for AS3 only.. so how would you connect symbols with other symbols?

I had a php programmer write me a script to download information from a local real estate board, and it works great, but we had to have it download to an xml file using urlencode in php (there were characters in the listings that caused problems - ie. > < & "). Anyways, now I'm parsing the information in flash, and still left with a few "+" signs between street names (ie. Bear+Mountain Road).
I tried adding:
var loadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();loadVars.decode(i.attributes.street);trace(i.attributes.street);
In my actionscript, but I still end up with "Bear+Mountain Road."
I guess either the "decode" function doesn't work to remove "+" signs, or I'm using the wrong thing. Right now it seems to be ONLY "+" signs, so even if there is a way to search the attribute and remove them that would be great!
My AS3 Flash loads some file that is a JSON with some special characters : quelques caract\u00e8res sp\u00e9ciaux (updated) After using some str_replace('\\','\', myVar) i did get rid of the double slash, but it still won't display as an accent. is there a way to decode this string in AS3 (get back©, chars...)?
View 2 RepliesIf I URL encode my flashvars, is there a prefered technique/method(s) for handling them inside as3?
During some of my testing, I recently url encode the = and & symbols, but my AS did not seem to translate them when using LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters (Maybe I was doing it wrong... Hehe, it has been known to happen.) Question: Using AS3, should I decode the parameters? Or, does that happen automatically?
I assume I need to run some sort of url decode. What is the best way to handle Flashvars? Do you folks have any tips?
Simply said, I want to have an inputtextfield, a button that is linked to the textfield and a dynamic textfield as an display, to display stuff, which comes from the inputtextfield and the button.Then, I want to have items in the actionscript, like item1 = 5, or item1 = 1a, or 1a = item1. Just some code that equals to another code. But for now item1 = 5.For the button that is linked to the input textfield, has to calculate something when pressed and the dynamic textfield will display it. So if I would type in the inputtextfield 5 and press the button, it will be as example multiplied by 2, so the dynamic textfield will show 10.
Still following? The point is, I know how to set something like that up, but what I want is that when I type item1 in the textfield (which equals to 5) and press the button the dynamic text will show 10, because "2 x instance name inputtextfield" (in which intem 1 is typed, which equals 5) should be 10 right? But when I try to do this, the dynamic text will show nothing or some error. but when I type directly in the code "2 x item1" and press the button it will show 10. But I want it to double link, so "2 x (instancename inputtextfield which equals to what is typed in the field, this case: item 1 which equals to 5) and not that it stops to item1, so it will freak.
I want to know if it is possible to get the decoded frames from FLVPlayback, or if it is known another alternative to access the decoded frames from a flash player. What I want to do is to manipulate the decoded frames before they get rendered on screen. The video source could be an RTMP stream or a FLV (F4V) file.

View 2 RepliesHow do I decode a Base32 encoded string in Actionscript?
I'm using AS3 to base64 encode a JPG and pass it to Javascript. I'm attempting to use AJAX to pass that base64 encoded string to PHP and have PHP decode it. (I know I could send it back to Flash and Flash could decode it and send it to PHP, but I'm trying to eliminate the need for Flash on the decoding end).It appears that AS3's encodeToBase64String() function and and PHP's base64_decode() function do not use the same algorithm, as PHP evaluates it as a base64 encoded object, but does not seem to output it properly

encode(string) will give for example: "yuioUasUenUwdfr"

It does not have to be secure or anything.

View 3 RepliesI have an environment where strings are percent encoded by Actionscript escape() function and then passed to Java for decoding.I have for example a test string "m é". It is passed to Actionscript escape() that outputs "m%20%E9" When I try to decode it with Java:
URLDecoder.decode("m%20%E9", "UTF-8")
The result is:
"m ?"
%E9 seems the unicode point for "é" character, but it is not quite understood by Java decode.Is there a way to decode in Java the strings encoded by Actionscript escape()?What escape format do these function use since they seem to be different?
