Code: Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim tnumber As String = ""

[Code].....
then i can access t2_2 value on aspx page, so what shoul i put before getURL so it will set values from texboxes
I am trying to pass a variable from my .aspx page into my published swf file. I am using the code below, and using swfobject to try to pass my variable. (I am very comfortable with swfobject and would prefer, if possible, to avoid using FlashVars.) The variable myVar represents the name of an image file, and will be a different image for each user on my site. I am using Flash CS4, and AS3. I only mention that because I was able to do this in CS3 using AS3, yet certain things have been deprecated in CS4 - hence my code does not work. And for what I'm doing and how I'm doing it I cannot use CS3 to create my swf file. Anyway, here is the code:
I have a Flash movie which is embeded in 'base.aspx' file, when a button is clicked in the flash movie another 'something.aspx' file need to be called.When I run the flash movie from the Adobe Flash Professional CS3 IDE , it (the flash movie) calls the 'something.aspx' file just as expected.However when I embed the flash movie in to the 'base.aspx' file it doesn't work as expected .
Because of my version of Xcelsius I'm limited to 2 web service connections so I tried using XML Data connection and aspx page to bring data from database to Xcelsius.I have an ASPX page that outputs an xml file with the format
In Xcelsius I made a XML Data connection having the XML URL pointing to the .aspx page that should output an xml. Then I have the Enable Load checked and I have selected the proper # of cells and rows . If I try preview I get
"An error has occurred. For more information, contact the file creator or yoursystem administrator. Error: Error #2032 Connection Type: XML Data".
I have the crossdomain.xml file on both the application folder and IIS wwwroot folder that looks like this:
If I put in the XML URL in Xcelsius, the url to the xml file directly without using .aspx to write it to the output of the page it works. The xml is in the same application folder as .aspx page.My scope is to use the .aspx page to write query on the database and output back an xml with the table in the correct xml format so I can then consume the data in Xcelsius.
I've made a flash page with user input for email and comments. The thing is I am working with a aspx.net server. The programmer has written out a aspx coding for the server side. Now all i have to do is write a script in the input fields in flash to connect to the aspx server. The progammer said that I would have to create variables inside the flash program to call to the aspx page he created. I am faily new to aspx and have no clue to writing a script with variables.
How to retrieve xml data in an aspx page after sending it using URLLoader.load
This is the flash code i am using:
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT; //tried by giving VARIABLES also urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleComplete); urlLoader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
[Code]....
I were able to accept data in above statement when i send a string in var1 say "test". But on sending xml above error is getting.I have tried to load the xml data in XMLDocument also.
In AS20 i used sendAndLoad method to send and reterive xml data.
We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.
I have a swf (swf#1) with links to another swf (swf #2). I would like use GET to pass data out of swf #1 to a PHP page that will be holding swf #2. I want swf #2 to start at a specific frame based on the data passed from swf #1.
Goal: To build an Internet Mapping Site (IMS) using FlashScenario: Using Manifold GIS for the backend. It is a full scale GIS software which easily outputs data (geometry and tabular) into xml. It has built in IMS capabilities, but theWould like to build an IMS using Flash as the front end, and Manifold as backend. How would I set up something where the GUI and display were Flash, the user interacts with the Flash (Pan, Zoom, Selection, Query(SQL)), have Flash fetch that from Manifold via xml, and display the new extent, query results, etc.?
So there would need to be geometry data retrieval and display as well as tabular. For example the user should be able to use a "Zoom by Extent" feature where they draw a rectangle on the map, it returns the coordinates of the box to Manifold, Manifold returns it, etc. On the other hand they need to be able to query the datasets (simple sql queries).I hope this makes some sense. I'm a noob in many aspects to backend so I'm just trying to get a handle on whether this is possible, and what backend needs to be implemented in order to make this happen? Would you know of a possilble better method? Silverlight, etc?
So i a building a categorized menu of different foods. I have a class for "categories" (buttons) which essentially will return a string "salads", "drinks", etc. I now have another class "menuItems" for items within categories and this handles sizes such as "small", "med", "large", etc. My problem now is that when i return "salads", i want to invoke an array which contains all the elements of salads, send it to menuItems which will populate the menu. So far i have both the category objects and the menu object setup. I just cant seem to be able to send the data that the category object is returning and pass it to the menu object. Both of which are added to the stage as shown below:
If there was a way that i could say add all these classes to one class so that they can talk to each other that would be great but i dont know how to do this.
I had this problem (Error: addChild() is not available in this class. Instead, use addElement() or modify the skin, if you have one.) and I followed the recommended solution:
// container ( IVisualElement ) for DisplayObjects var container:UIComponent = new UIComponent(); addElement( container );
[Code].....
What I need to be able to do, is get the string Locale to be read by the Child swf.
I am working on creating a basic message board for my website and I am having difficulty getting things to pass from Flash to Database to Flash. I just checked out the tutorial on this site that shows how to go from Flash to Database. Which is awesome by the way. I was wondering if anyone could help me on how to get the database data back into flash and post in a message board style. In another related note. Through a form set

I'm currently working on a flash combobox and text field passing data to php to display the input from flash. It require using query string method. I'm stuck on the query string code. My as3 has nothing wrong, I just don't know whats going on the php is not catching my data for display.

I'm trying to pass a string variable with custom event and having a problem retrieveing the string when the event is handled. The event fires OK, and I can trace the string in the Event, but it returns "undefined" in the event handler. I'm hoping it's just a typo or something, but it's got me stumped. Below is my Event code and the handler code. [code]
I'm working on an interactive quiz where the user's responses will be incremented to a poll in a CMS. I have a url that automatically increments the answer choice in a poll, so I would like to use sendToURL to call the url without actually passing any data or variables. It seems to work with navigateToURL, but that opens a blank window in the browser
Here is the navigateToURL code that increments the poll successfully, but opens the unwanted browser window
var url:String = "URL GOES HERE"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); try {
[Code]....
I tried replacing "navigateToURL" in the first option to sendToURL and it wasn't incrementing the poll.
I'm trying to do a Christmas Calendar in Flash. I'm using buttons for the 24 days, that I want to activate depending on the date. Since I can't count on clientcomputers having the correct date set I want to use the date from the server and pass it into Flash. Now I found out on the Macromedia website, that you can use FlashVars as a ActiveX Parameter to pass values into Flash. So far so good. How do i address the variable in Flash then? Using a syntax like this PHPode:FlashVars="datum=DAY_OF_MONTH" //DAY_OF_MONTH holds the date I get from the serverin my html file, that's calling the .swf I should be able to simply use datum as a variable in Flash. However that doesn't seem to work
Im trying to use dynamic SQL tables on my PHP server so I need to pass the table name to the PHP script. I don't understand why the Data Management system that sets up CRUD won't allow this extra parameter. It says it can only have one input: item. I can get all records, but when I try to create, update, or delete I get an error.
Or is there another way I can pass the tablename variable to the php file before I call any functions?
I created a Contact Form with Flash 4 on a website: [URL]. When I fill out the form in the "Contatti" TAB (contacts) and click on "invia" (submit) the email browser opens correctly (Entourage) but the text in the site form does not appear in it.
I'm trying to take a variable from a php page and send it to flash to then use in a link.I'm having problems just selecting ONE variable from the print function, the code will help explain:
It collects all the data fine but it does not print it out correctly, it prints out all the variables in the php in one link. For example: If i click the facebook icon, i will be taken to http:[url].... This also happens with the other icons (Youtube and Twitter).
