ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Variables From Internet File?
Jul 20, 2011
I have a dynamic text box on my scene, and I have tried the following code:
Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loading);
[code]....
This doesn't work, although if I put the vars.txt file in the same directory as the flash file it's fine.
Code:
loader.load(new URLRequest("vars.txt"));
Is there a way to load the vars.txt through the internet?

I'm trying to load an XML file from the internet in a CD-ROM flash application and seem to be getting nowhere. The XML object needs to retrieve the results of a PHP script with 2 variables. The first being T (territory), and the second TYPE (type). The TYPE variable is currently fixed. In this situation, we will consider its value: 'bsc'. I have tried an on(change) handler on the ComboBox, and gotten it to at least produce the correct URL with both GET variables, but the XML object refuses to load.
I have tried using trace() outputs, the debugger, and every permutation of my code I can think of ... but with no results. I do know that my PHP code is working properly, and IS generating the output I exactly expect. What am I doing wrong, is there an access restriction between a local Flash file and the internet?

I need some help? Anyone experience this problem before with IE8 FLASH bug? Can not get this to work on all subsequent refresh to the flash. I have a flash piece which simply renders only on the first initial load. After that, if i refresh or visit the page, it does not load correctly. It seems I am having this problem with the swf only on subsequent loading of the page or whenever a refresh happens.

I'm working on a function that checks for 2 things to pull up the correct .swf file. I have to check for 2 things
·_global.theYear
·_global.theDate
Is there a different way I could write this function to say something like:
checkAll(_global.theYear, _global.theDate) = function(){
loadMovie(_global.theYear,_global.theDate".swf", 1);
}
So when a button is pressed, it runs the function above and fills in the variable. Names in the .swf name, does that make any sense, am I on the right track? Because all the .swf file names are all consistent such as 2009_18.swf, 2007_5.swf., etc. The only problem I see is there are 2 sets of buttons, one when you press it sets the _global.theYear variable and the other sets the _global.theDate variable.
So would one button look like this:
mybtn.onPress=function(){
checkAll(2008,_global.theDate);
}
And the _global.theDate would be set with what the current var is set at as?

I have been using AS2 for a while now but am having some trouble when it comes to the internet side, I basically would like to be able to change the value of a varible on a web page or something and use this value on a different computer, like an mmorpg but it does not have to be that fast, I have looked around and am having trouble working it out, I know you can use servers and stuff but I don't want to have my computer running 24/7 so someone else can use it.

I am making an audio player app that collects variables based on javascript running on the page. By default it loads 2 mp3s, but I need to be able to re-assign the mp3s that it loads based on different javascript clicks.
I think what I want to do is assign the default 2 songs to variables on file load. Then call a function that re-assigns those variables to the javascript variables passed in. My question is - how do I create a function that only runs on initial load? I assume I could then use javascript to call a different AS3 function to stop the player, re-assign the variables, load the file, and then start it again.

I'm having with loading variables from a text file that is sitting on a Hard Drive rather than the server?
I would like each computer station to pull data from the server based on their individual Station IDs (which is defined in the text file on the hard drive).
The path to the text file is C:StationID.txt - I am having trouble with defining the PATH to the text file on the actual hard drive.

I've searched, but I don't believe flash (actionscript 2.0) itself offers a "select filefield" and fileupload functionality?
That's why my swf has a button which opens a popup window. In the window the user has the ability to upload a file to the server. That's no problem.
But I would like to send the filename back from the popup to the swf. How on earth can I manage that?
I can't use Loadvars.sendAndLoad in the swf because then my visitor does not see a popup and can't select the files. Loadvars.load doesn't work in popup?

This is for mx 2004. How to load variables from an external txt file at the beginning of flash movie...At various keyframes in the scene the movie shows different forms for user to fill in into the TextInput components. As soon as these forms are shown, the TextInput components are pre-filled with default text (the variable values that were loaded, for example "Enter your title here"). I know how to do this in earlier versions easily with the Var variable but now I'm stuck. I've been trying to do something but I keep getting "undefined" in the TextInput.

I've been trying to create a screensaver that dynamically loads images and text from a server, but it seems like I am not able to load anything outside of my own computer at all.It seems like the problem is coming from the Security Sandbox, the sandbox type for the screensaver stays "Local_with_file" meaning it can access local files but cannot access files from the network. What can I do to make the Sandbox "Local_with_network" as I do not need to load anything locally, but images and text from a server.

I've made a flash file with actionscript 2.0 and I'm trying to load images from a live webcam on the internet. I've made 3 frames: frame 1 contains this code:
[Code]...
In the first frame i is a code for the frame i'm trying to load... it goes sort of random, i haven't quite found a formula by which it loads images... and find the next image. For exampel the current image is : 1276353066859 , the next one (as fast as i could right click the webcam image in the browser then Copy image adress ) is kinda like 1276353068859, 1276353127259, 1276353124265 so not necessarily a logical order that i've found yet ) Anyways...my problem is another... i've put those traces in the actionscript because after loading the first image, it stops... the output is like this:

I have a piece of jQuery that requests a file (using .load() method) with some HTML and an embedded Flash video player. IE7 doesn't seem to load the Flash video player, but it does load all the HTML and applies proper CSS to the elements. It works at least on FF3.6.6. I've tried both static embedding [1] and SWFObject [2]. I've also tried several different Flash video players and neither works. Both of the flash players load just fine if I don't request them with AJAX. Now is this is even possible? Are there any tricks to make this work? Or do I have to implement another way for IE?[1]:
<object id="player" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" name="player" width="400" height="315">
<param name="movie" value="player.swf" />

I have an empty SWF that's sole purpose is to call loadMovieNum and start the project. Each loaded movie has a few variables defined within them - unique to those loaded SWFs. Instead of declaring all the variables in each SWF can I declare all of them in one place, in the first frame of the empty loader it all starts from? I'm thinking I can then declare a variable which each loaded movie can increment as needed for me.

I'm using swfobject (2.2) to load blip.tv videos. Everything was working fine with their old player, but now that they have switched to the stratos player, it fails to load properly in IE. It shows a grey video window, with the play button half showing on the left side, and the button won't work.
Here is my js code:
function loadBlip(videoFile,width,height,cssID) {
var blipSWF = "http://blip.tv/scripts/flash/stratos.swf";
var expressSWF = "/lib/js/swfobject/expressInstall.swf";
var attributes = {
[Code]......
The file that I pass to the loadBlip function looks like: [URL]
Again, this works fine in FF/Chrome/Safari, but fails in IE.
