ActionScript 3.0 :: Using URLLoader For MySQL Queries?
Jul 22, 2011The basics of my problem is I need to have actionscript query a MySQL server. I figured the best way to do this was create a Database class that will hold several static methods for the various queries. I created the PHP program necessary to run the queries, and the MySQL database (no problem there). I also figured out the basics of URLLoader to get the info back from the PHP. Now lastly, I am trying to figure out the best way to make the data usable.
Essentially the flow I wanted was the static method in the Database class would return the result of the query (e.g. return user's name) so in the main class I would just write something like firstName=Database.getFirstname(idNumber);. However, I quickly learned this may be impossible since the loader obviously takes some time to load everything and storing and manipulating the data is best done through a Event.COMPLETE event. Is there a way to have a function pause and not run subsequent lines until an event occurs? The ideal function would look like this I guess
Code:
private static variable url:String = "phpFilesUrl.com"
public static function getFirstName(id:String):String

ActionScript 2.0 :: Shared Objects And Secure DB Queries
Aug 4, 2009I'm working with a friend with some changes to their complex flash site after their previous developer jumped ship on them. In the process of making some edits I noticed that the previous developer had exposed all of their data to the world. Any slightly tech-savy user could pretty much read all the table data in their database by visiting a php page.
So here's the scenario I'm trying to solve.
- The flash site uses Shared Objects to save users access privileges when they log in successfully.
- There are frequent calls to the database to display information (whether logged in or not). The site calls a php page.. lets say... query.php?table="tablename" and returns all tables data... (what a mess). Only specific columns are needed to be returned to the user (whether they are logged in or NOT logged in). there is no check to see if the user is logged in or not when this page is called. so anyone can call a page and get this data.
- Only the ADMIN should get returned the full table set as they are the ones that need to see all the data in flash. however the same php query is called for the admin and for the regular user and any non-logged in user.
So. I guess I can limit the data set returned for the average logged in or not logged in user so the more sensitive data isn't shared. But how can I authenticate the logged in admin to share the full table data?
Php :: Zend Class Variable Retention For Mysql Queries
Jan 9, 2010I have a flash application which uses a single php file to retrieve records from a database (using the Zend framework). When the application first begins, I make a call to the php to set a class variable, so that all future requests to the database will use this variable to select records based on its value. So here is how the class begins: class MyClass
[Code]...
So my question is, how can I get a PHP class variable to persist so that I can set it once, and I can access it anytime during the life of an application?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Calling Random Functions And General Game Queries?
Jul 24, 2011I am currently making a game with Flash CS5 and AS3... namely Tetris I have created my main menu and the objects and so on and have a few questions
1) How do I quit the game should a player press the quit button?
2) How do I get a button (Z and X) to rotate an object whilst the object is moving downwards (it is moving downwards using the timer function)?
3) How do I get the object to stop once it reaches the bottom of the screen? (im thinking something along the line of the hit detect but havent had much luck)
4) Any ideas on how to get flash to detect if a line is complete and therefore delete it? (it needs to segment blocks off the graphic)
5) My final and most important question (the bit im working on at the minute) how do i get flash to call random functions so that random tetrominoes appear on screen so that the game is different everytime and the blocks are random as the player plays)

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Make A Preloader For A Little Flash Project That Involves Re-assembling A Load Of Rectangles To Make Up A Pattern?
Aug 4, 2007I'm trying to make a preloader for a little flash project that involves re-assembling a load of rectangles to make up a pattern.Idea is that instead of the usual load bar i wanted to make use of this pattern that is relevant to the project and have it rebuild it self with these rectangles flying in from the side. So far I have got the tweening sorted using the tween class and staggered the 42 (yes took a little while, probably an easier way so let me know on that also) rectangles using 'setTimeout' so it releases each 100milliseconds after the one one before it. This probably the wrong way to do it but i wanted to check how it looked and this was the one way i knew how to do it.
I want to make it so that these rectangles fly in a complete the pattern once the loading has finished, but on a fast connection I don't want it to rush the animation but for a slow connection I obviously want it to adjust the release time and maybe even the travel speed to compensate.
I had an idea of maybe working out the percentage loaded divided by 42 and then run an if statement to see if that percentage for that segment had been reached before 100millseconds had passed, if 100 had passed then release the rectangle, if not then hold the rectangle until 100 m/s had passed. Not sure if that is the best way to do but that's why I'm looking for some suggestions from more experienced developers.
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.Regular;
// declare variables

I am trying to make a sprite button with graphics and can't make it work. I have successfully added text fields so I know the path is correct. I suspected my code was correct and confirmed it should be, after reading several tutorials showing the process for creating sprite buttons with graphics. Anyway, I imported nearly every class on Earth, but certainly everything which needs to be. Stage is gray and 800x600.The graphics code by itself with appear, but not when linked to the sprite. Also, the sprite won't appear no matter what. Another interesting piece of the puzzle: nothing will trace, not even objects such as textfields which actually appear and function on the stage when I text the code.
