ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing Dynamic XML Via URLVariables?
Apr 5, 2011
I have XML I'm dynamically creating and want to pass to a swf via URLVariables. What I have right now is the following:
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.data_file = "us/data.xml"; //data.xml is static/already created
I have written up some code following preivous work. And it seems to me like it is correct.ut i am getting the below code when i click on my button to run the function!Error: Error #2101: The String passed to URLVariables.decode() must be a URL-encoded query string containing name/value pairs.
at Error$/throwError() at flash.net::URLVariables/decode() at flash.net::URLVariables()
I am having trouble creating an email form in Flash. The PHP is working fine and the email sends if I query the php in a browser but when I pass the variables from Flash the email address that is passed gets ****ed up.
For example: the text I enter in the text field: bobloblaw@football.com what is sent to php: bobloblaw%40football%2Ecom
I realise this is probably to do with urlencoding and I have tried escape() on the strings
I want to know which is more effective to use in terms of passing values to flashvars.I have a dynamically created XML on the fly that will be assigned to a flashvar.I am planning to assign a whole xmldoc to the flashvar..it basically includes all the tags as in the whole xmlobject..and then i'll use this var to be able to display it on a carousel like image gallery.. Basically the content is all dynamic.Is it more preferrable to accept the XML PATH or the whole XML DOCUMENT for the flashvars?
I am trying to complete a project (not school work).This is the point that i am at, and i probably need specific spoon feeding as i am obviously missing a piece.code in frame one of flash:
Code: stop(); myVars = new LoadVars();[code]............
I am not sure how to code this as pairs and like i said the only ones i need to be transferred are the substance and sum.
I know this is pretty simple but all that I have read doesn't make much sense to me. I have one swf calling another swf that I have embedded into an htnl. In other words just calling another html page in a seperate window. In one.swf (runing in broswer) I use the below to call another html page passing the variable NewLessonArray. This contains an array of completed chapters.
[Code]...
All that is returned that I can see is object Object. But since I am passing on a address line into another swf embedded in a html page I am unable to determine that correct syntac for retrieving the information.
On my stage I have a dynamic text field (instance name = lives).
In my actionscript I have created a number variable called livesnum. And then beneath that I'm setting the textfields value to be the livesnum variable but I get the following error:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String.
My actionscript is as follows :
var livesnum:Number = 4; //Amount of lives lives.text = livesnum;
How would I achieve setting the textfield as the numeric value of the variable?
I have a flex application that reads from external XML file(URL loader) and displays graph. My xml file is dynamically generated using PHP and the filename=currentloggedin user name(i.e. username.xml).How should I load the xml into SWC? Will Flashvars work? I have a HTML page that has PHP code to get username and the same file embes the swc. How to pass the PHP varibale to my SWC?
I'm making a function, and I want to pass it's handling less restrictively, kinda like jQuery I guess.
Code: function cfunc(min, max) { return (Math.floor(Math.random()*(max-min))+min);
[Code]....
Now I know that alternately, I could pass them individually to the function and then join them all together as one, but I'd prefer to use one variable and pass the data through it, kinda like a scripting engine.
The following code, when attached to the MC panTracker_mc works as desired, passing the value of the dynamic text field with a VARIABLE name of s1Pan to s1 sound object, thus controlling the pan.
I am using the new Dynamic Streaming classes with AS3 and FMS 3.5. I am storing four different streams in different locations on FMS. Because I can only identify one URI, how can I pass the different paths for each of the F4Vs?
Example in brief:
private var _nc:NetConnection;private var _ds:DynamicStream;private var _vidDisp:Video;private var _connClient:ConnectionClient; private var _uri:String = "rtmp://myserver.com/vod";private var streamName:String = "MyString"; var dsi:DynamicStreamItem = new DynamicStreamItem();_ds = new DynamicStream( _nc ); _ds.client = _connClient;
how do i pass upperLimit="", dial value="" and maxValue="" values in colorRange dynamically from the flex side. i need these 3 values to plot on the angle gauge fusion chart
The following code, when attached to the MC panTracker_mc works as desired, passing the value of the dynamic text field with a VARIABLE name of s1Pan to s1 sound object, thus controlling the pan.
I was actually watching a tutorial about how to make a highscore table. The problem is it was done in AS2 and I'm using AS3. I've been searching tutorials for 2 days and so far I've converted what I could. In the AS2 tutorial he uses loadVariables which works for him and I've successfully used URLVariables to pull in my php variables in AS3. But, when he pulls in his variables for instance name1="happy",score1="100", he uses the set command and these variables can automatically be referenced by var1 and var2 respectively and can populate the dynamic text fields of his score board.
Set works differently in AS3 and using URLVariables I see the string of name/value pairs and I've split them up with an array, but, when I try to display them AS3 treats these name/value pairs as a value of the array instead of name/value pairs. I understand that you can load URLVariables as name/value pairs, but, how do you get AS3 to treat them as name/value pairs once the string is loaded?Sample code:
var sumString:String = event.target.data; var sumArray:Array= sumString.split("&"); trace(sumArray); //this shows the whole array string
i'm pulling my hair over this. i have sucessfully (verified) loaded an xml file and can trace the data i'd like to pass. i am loading the external swf into an empty mc called X. in the external swf i am loading is a mc and in there is a dynamic textfield. i give the content of the xml to the path to the dynamic textfield and nothing happens. trying to pass the variable with: target.text = content;
i listed the variables and objects in the test movie debug option (command+enter) and i can see the dynamic text box variable. then i took copied the path from the output window to my actionscript, replaced _level0 with _root but still to no avail. what am i doing wrong? do i have to publish the swf being loaded in a certain way? why am i able to look at the variables in the debug list variables and objects option, but not in the actionscript?
I am trying to pass information to a many dynamic text fields when rolling over various movieclips that are generated using a loop. I have tried everything I know but can not get pahting to work prpoerly. The rollover works in that the curser changes by does not execute the lines of code within the in line function.(see red, bolded text (towards bottom) for problem). the Attached zipped swf is what it looks like as is.
Code: //how many floors are there in the building? var floors:Number = 25;
I get the following errors when I try using URLVariables andURLRequest. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong ?The class or interface 'flash.net.URLVariables' could not beloaded.var params:URLVariables = new URLVariables();The class or interface 'flash.net.URLRequest' could not beloaded.
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("upload_process.php");
It only seems to work if I provide a value (which I am trying to avoid). What I would like for it to do is send the url param: myObject[array_list][]=& (i.e. an empty value)
I have a URLVariables object (variables) that I'm setting its properties this way. [code]But the properties differ so I want to just pass an object in the following format and have it set the property names and values correctly.{fname: "fname", lname: "lname", address: "address"}I tried a forloop like this, but it's not working. Not sure exactly how I achieve the same thing as setting the properties manually.[code]
I am currently trying to write a simple class that handles form validation with a backend script, how the backend script works is that you POST a variable type and it's value and an XML is returned with any errors. The problem is, I want to be able to dynamically generate the variable names so that they don't have to be hard coded into the class. Is this possible?for example:instead of
ActionScript Code: var urlVariables:UrlVariables = new UrlVariables(); urlVariables.first_name = "foo";
I am attempting to make a flash object that receives name/value pairs to a swf that resides inside a LCMS. There is some documentation on the topic from the lcms, but very little support. The documentation says to instantiate the flash class called URLvars (which doesn't exist, so I'm using URLVariables) and says to use this code with the following example if the name/value pair is baseColour = 0x1c617D (essentially, then, the value of the variable baseC would be 0x1c617D):
var thisURL:String = _url; var vars:URLvars = new URLvars(thisURL); var baseC:Number = vars.data_obj.baseColour;
I tried to do this in a very simple object, but it will not pull the name/value pairs from the LCMS
I got a problem with URLVariablesprobably better to show by example
Code: for each(var foo:String in fooArray){ variables.foo = foo; }
this unfortunately doesn't work as intended as the old foo variable in the URLVariables get overridden each time.Thus when I output the variables as suchTried looking around the net for it but couldn't find anything. Also it seems logical enough that the variable gets overridden and I wouldn't really question it if it wasn't that ive been told the querystring should contain multiple definitions of the foo variable...
