both codes work fine separately.
but when i merge them the problem is file loading handler is called in the last.
how and what to do to run both piece of codes fine .
what methods and parameters of the urlloader class we have to use to display images in a flash player if possible..also movie should update everytime a new image is added to a database or filethe images can either be in a file system or in a sql database (if possible)does flash comes with an object of this type or we have to create it
View 1 RepliesI'm basically interacting with a third party API flash file to send HTTP POST requests to my server. know I'm on somewhat the right path because it requires a crossdomain.xml file, and before I added that part nothing in the POST variables was showing up, however since I added that file there are 4 variables that are set, these POST variables are sent by the application to give me basic information about the file.. but I actually need to read the RAW POST data to actually save the image being sent by the Flash.I'm aware there are 3 ways...$GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA'] $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA which is probably the same as the firstfile_get_contents('php://input')For whatever reason, neither of these "work". By "work" I mean they're not being set, when I var dump them I get nothing.
Could it be that there's a setting in php.ini that I need to set, or perhaps the Flash application is truly not sending the actual image? I think it's doing the right thing, because it's a semi popular API and it's used by a couple other sites so I'm pretty sure it's right on their end.
I turn to you for help, dear sweet Kirupa Forumites. First, let me explain the problem: I have a flash file reading an external text file for the content. Everything works perfectly for nearly everyone - you click a menu button, and the content text comes up fine. However, a couple of people have found that the text shows up as "undefined". I have checked the player versions of the people where it doesn't work, and it is the same as for those where it does work, so that ain't the problem.
I don't understand why it works perfectly for nearly everyone, but a small number of people have this "undefined" text problem. It seems to be a problem with loading the external text file, but I don't know why. I have a main flash movie, and load the text in the first frame, using the following:
var my_content = new LoadVars();
my_content.load("content.txt");
my_content.onLoad = function(success){
if (success){
[Code]...
I then have a couple of dynamic text boxes in the main movie - one called ErrorText (for displaying an error message to the user) and one called ContentText (for displaying the content). I use an external menu swf which jumps to a specific frame in the main movie, depending on which button is clicked. Actionscript on the main movie frame for the first button does the following, with the other frames similarly configured:
ContentText.htmlText = my_content.content1;
stop();
My external text file is properly configured (content1=blah blah&content2=other blah blah) etc.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can solve this particular weird problem??

View 3 RepliesBasically, I have alot of text that needs to contain underlines and all that good formatting stuff that flash text can't do. So I created a dynamic scrolling text box, loaded in an external txt document containing all the right HTML tags for flash. But for some reason the flash cuts off the text. It won't show all the text I have. I noticed that it seems to be cutting it off in SOME (not all) areas where I have a hyperlink.

I have successfully gotten my images to load externally and randomly into 4 different boxes on my stage. My problem now is with the code I'm using, you HAVE to specify how many images there are in the actionscript. My goal is to allow for future updates to be done outside of flash and all we'd have to do is add or remove images in the external image folder. Here's the code I'm using:
[Code]...
I would like to intergrate 6 pictures in my AS 2 website, that uses XML, but i cannot manage to do anything. I added a flash magazine, but what it only does, is keeping my website loading hard and jerky. so i wanted to put a simple gallery with 6 images, and zoom so the user can read the newspapers images well, like 200% zoom so the text would be visible to the viewer. When it clicks on any of the pictures or a separate button,the newspaper image goes zoomed like 200% and, when the mouse is out the image zooms out, or click on the separate button and the image zooms out as its initial state.
View 1 RepliesI am wondering if it is possible to use random file access for reading and writing data to file in Actionscipt 3.0 similar to that what is in Visual Basic?
View 1 RepliesI need to read the URL that the browser shows when a Flex application is called because I would to reference it in a mxml configuring Cairngorm remote objects. The goal I would reach is to automatically configure Cairngorm services from environment to environment (dev,test,qa,prod) without statically set the value in the mxml or other ActionScript. Since the Flex client is deployed in the root of the war of the webapp, it's enough to read where the browser is pointing.
I have written a class that is doing so:
public class ConfigServer {
public function ConfigServer() {
var loaderUrl:String = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.loaderInfo.loaderURL;
var urlToSet:String = <loaderURL-string-manipulation>;
_serverUrl = urlToSet;
[Code] .....
But whenever I call the ConfigServer constructor and for every (known to me) technique I applied (statics or singletons or public ro so on), I have always had the same error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at org.fao.fapda.util::ConfigServer()[C:devworkspacesFAPDA runkFAPDA-clientsrcorgfaofapdautilConfigServer.as:8]
Cairngorm services initialization is done as follow:
<fx:Declarations><cut/>
<services:FAPDAServices id="services"/>
<cut/></fx:Declarations>
And the problem is that FAPDAServices.mxml is read runs before FlexGlobals is valid. Is there a point in the Flex Application lifecycle where such loaderURL is defined so that I can construct ConfigServer? When in startup events that initialization in done?
I have an URL loader with the following code:
public function getUploadURL():void {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
var url:String = getPath();
[Code]....
My problem is that this request might be wrong, and so the server will give me a back a 400 Bad Request, with a message to explain the error. If the Event.COMPLETE, I can see some message (a response) back from the server in the "data" field of the Event, but if onGetUploadURLError or getHttpStatus is called, it just says that the error code is 400 but does not show me the message associated with it.
The "data" field is undefined in getHttpStatus and it is "" in onGetUploadURLError. On the contrary, in getBaseURL, I get: {"ResponseMetadata":{...}} I checked and I do get a similar response in my browser for a wrong request, but I cannot see it.
I would like to have two applications communicate with each other. One app is a Flash running the browser and the other one is another app of ours that is distributed as *.exe file. We need the C/C++ application to read some info out of the SOL file, that is written by the Flash app.
Any other mean that can be used to read the SOL file from a C/C++ application? How often is the format of the SOL file being changed ?
What I have so far...sure there is a better way to do this and as I learn AS3 I will figure it out. The following is what I put together where I now have three instances of the segmented thumbnail button that shows an image when cliked on. What I figure out why it only reads the one xml file.
My XML files: images, images_a, images_b
<images><image full="images/full/image1.jpg" thumb="images/thumb/image1.jpg" /> <image full="images/full/image2.jpg" thumb="images/thumb/image2.jpg" /> <image

I'm trying to read a url from an xml file and attach an onRelease event to a movieclip that opens the url when clicked.

var thelink2 = "../news/Press Releases/testpdf.pdf";
if (thelink <> "")
{
tempMC.bat.onRelease=function(){ getURL(thelink); }
}
If I use the "thelink" variable as input to the getURL function, I get a "Page not found" error.If I use the "thelink2", it works as expected.When I look in the debugger, "thelink" and "thelink2" are identical!Here is the code for the findNode function. I've had no problems before with this code, so I don't think the problem is there.
Code:
function findNode(node, nodeName)
{
if (node.nodeName==nodeName)

I was wondering if there was a way to have a flash file read its own flash name and use it as a variable within that swf. ie, 05.swf. I would want 05 to be a variable with the page.
View 2 RepliesI have a couple variables coming from PHP. So for example if my PHP looks like this:
PHP Code:
$qry = "Select * from memory";
$result = mysql_query($qry);
echo "memory=";
while($resultset = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo $resultset['name'].";".$resultset['memory'].",";
For this the output from the PHP file would look like this:
memory=Person2;Memory2,Person1;Memory1,
So basically the comma represents a new record in the database. So basically in my text field I'd like the following result to happen:
Memory: Memory2
From: Person2
Memory: Memory1
From: Person1
So take the first record and display it like I've shown and then have a couple break lines (not sure how to accomplish this either) and display the next record that was separated by the comma.I have the following AS code which works for one variable but I have more then one like above:
ActionScript Code:
files = new Array();
lv = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function() {
[code]....
i'm trying to read a txt file (well actually, the file has a different extension but it's a simple txt file). i have a path in that file that points to a jpg that i want to load. if that path has a plus sign (+) in it, the actionscript reads it as a space!
View 2 RepliesIf you have an .as file in the global include directory do you have to upload it to your server with the flash file or does it compile the flash file with the included info?
View 2 RepliesI am changing the flashvars variables v1=value&v2=value ect then after the flash movie runs I am changing the variables externally by javascript, so far so good.when flash first loads it reads the vars correctly.when I try to read them ( after the change ) it keeps reading the old values.[code]everything works except I cannot seem to read the changed FlashVars.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash file sitting inside of a web page in our company domain. There is another server (used to store images) that is part of the domain but is not running any web services (for security reasons). A folder on the images server is however shared in such a way that any site on the web server can display images from the images server as long as the user is plugged into the domain. For example, both I and my boss can pull up a web site on the web server and see all the information, but only he can see the images
because I have Vista Basic and no domain support. This is done via "<img src='\serverNamedirectory.'/>"
That's ok, but on this particular instance I don't want to display the image on the webpage, I want it in a SWF on the page. However the SWF can't seem to load the images even though the page it's sitting in could. I've tried tons of variations of URLRequests and Loaders, most resulting in security errors. Since most of the online discussions about these errors revolve around cross-domain access, I can't seem to find any tech support for our specific situation.
I've got a student doing a project, and has accounts on 2 different web servers at our school.
From server A, all the images in the swf are missing when it plays. (I believe the images are in simpleButtons, and are drawn using the drawing tools )
From server B, all the images are there.
I am making a random name chooser for a class (using an array to read from 28 names). I was wondering if it is possible for flash to read an array from a notepad file. [code]Is there a way to make it so that instead of having to edit the Fla file to edit the names, I can just make a notepad file with the array and _root.NumberOfStudents variable so that it can be edited from year to year easily?
