ActionScript 3.0 :: Save Results To Xml?
Apr 15, 2011
I recently made a drag and drop game that gets users to rate a word 1 - 5, nothing fancy just event listeners that have many (many) if statements that push the selection into an array at an index.However now that I have this preference list im kinda stuck as I dont know what to do with it now.In java I could save it to a file but from everything ive read there are things to stop flash/as3 from accessing your hard drive(security issues)Basically im trying to find a a way to put this array into some sort of use such as saving them to a file on my hard drive.Also as an aside if there any good tutorials on how to make a scoreboard?ay if a player gets 3 of them 'right' they'd get 3 points and be placed accordingly.

I'm having some trouble getting around a security restriction of flex. Saving a file is apparently an action that can only be invoked upon user interaction. The problem is that after my user clicks on the save button, I need to perform a database query to get the data for the file I want to save.
Because Flex works asynchronous, I have to make the database call and then catch the ResultEvent in a different function. In that function, I no longer have the user's mouseclick event. How am I then supposed to save this file?

I've designed a painter program where the user can select different colours and 'paint' a custom design on screen. What I would like to do is incorporate a 'Save' button which takes a snapshot of their drawing which they can then save to their computer.

At my college, they have CS4 (master suite) and at home I've got CS5 (design premium). I can save files in CS5 as CS4 so they can be read at college (by Flash) but I have to do it via the "save as" every time I save. After a couple of times, it get rather irritating. Is it possible for me to save in the usual way (as if it was a CS5 document) without the save as dialog every time I save my work?

server the scripts it has to load from the server, but if i call it like it will not load and will get stuck. i remember there was a parameter for the player about allowing it to read only local scripts or something like that, and i plan to test it with this (or if according to the problem description, somebody else has a different theory, all is welcome), but at least in dreamweaver it does not appear the parameter for flash objects, and i dont remember where i saw that parameter or what was its name, what is the parameter to allow a flash movie to read scripts from different servers (even though the situation is kinda weird, since dnses are pointed correctly, or it would not load at all with my and how do i edit the parameters value? do i have to edit it by hand in all pages, in all occurrences?

I have a movie that is connected to a database. It pulls info, stores it in an array and displays it. We also have buttons that are coded to send a search query (selected from the data pulled from the database) back to the website to be displayed. Weirdness happens. Here is the button code.
PHP Code:
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.mysite.com/mySiteBuilder.php?tagged=true&UpdateSearch=update&myRouteResults="+_global.taggedRoutes[0][6]+"", "_self");[code]....
All is good here accept for the 1414,2626,2525,1919,1212. These should be 14,26,25,19,12! Checked it and it does perform correctly.

Basically, I have a function that when called will display a menu of options that the user can click on. The menu is dynamically generated from the script and each menu item has it's onPress handler setup to call a dynamically generated function that which has access to the index of the menu item (or any other data I choose to pass it).What I would like to happen is that when a menu item is clicked on, the value is somehow passed back to the function (which built the menu), so that it can return it to it's caller. I've got everything but this last bit functioning.The approach I've tried is to give the onPress handler access to a field in the class which holds the menu building function. Then when it's clicked on, it can set the field to it's value. Meanwhile, a while loop in the menu function is waiting for the field to change, and will then return the new field value as it's result.
However, this doesn't work and the reason is obvious. Any sort of busy waiting while loop locks up the flash player. Therefore, it ceases to handle events and so the user cannot click on the menu item (or do anything else for that matter).What would be ideal is some sort of sleepAndHandleEvents function I could call from the while loop, but from what documentation I've searched, I can't find something like that. I've googled around, but so far I haven't found anything.The reason I want the menu selection returned from the function (rather than the usual method of using callbacks) is that it's called from some procedural code. I know I'm going a little bit against the paradigm of flash (which is mostly event oriented), but some things are just procedural in nature and I don't want to split my code into a million little pieces and turn it inside out.

would go about setting up flash to display results returned by a SQL query one at a time.I can work out the query and PHP, but want I want to know is how to make flash take each one and animate it, including pausing and clearing the screen when full, then continuing on a 'new' screen. It's basically for displaying a list of events in a database.
Blank screen
Event 1 (pause)
Event 2 (pause)

We're seeing very different results from the same files being packaged for iPhone verses iPad. Not having a lot of luck getting things to run smoothly on the iPad when they work great on the iPhone. The iPhone versions also run great on the iPad even though it has to scale down all the retina quality images. I feel like I'm missing some important difference between the two?

I have a library that provides a reflection API on top of describeType() (a method that returns an XML object with all the specs of a class or instance). Since this library is used in several other libraries and frameworks.
The problem I'm facing is that I'm not sure about the best approach to refactor this libraries' code and make it possible to test and compare the results. I could easily add timers to the code, log the ouput and compare the results, but it seems like a lot of work to do this manually.How did you test and compare the results of the changes?Is there perhaps any testing framework (also non-actionscript) that helps in performance testing in such a scenario?

I think this is just a matter of fine tuning some different elements, but I'd like to know your take. I've got a Flex app, using the Flex 4 data services, communicating with Zend AMF services. One of the services returns all the results in a database using SELECT * FROM table there are ~1200 rows (140KB package size).
My problem is the response time, it's rage inducing. Total duration is always between 7-8 seconds. All but about 150ms of that is latency. I broke up the PHP to figure out exactly where the latency was and turns out return $rows is eating up ~6.8sec latency. I can deal with 1-2sec, but when I start waiting around for 8sec I feel kinda dumb. I cross checked the query response speed directly from the database, and just like I was expecting the total query time is 45-60ms.
PHP, this is basically just the generated Flex data service code, although in production it isn't the same:
public function getAllProject_entries() {
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection, "SELECT u.*
FROM $this->tablename u");

public ResponseLogger(HttpResponse response)

In my Flex application I'd like to show the result as soon as it's flushed on server side. Can this be done using Actionscript?

I have a problem that is driving me nuts. I have been googling for the last two days now, but I still haven't found the solution to my problem.
I'm creating a list of courses for an LMS where the data is pulled in from an XML file. All that works perfectly well.
The user should be able to filter the list based on a number of parameters and I have been able to get some of it working (the very simple filters) but other things just wont work.
For example - I am able to filter the results based on the node values that are located directly under the main "course" node. However each of these main course nodes also contain a "sub-node" called "Categories". What I really need is to be able to filter based on the content found in that categories node as well.[code]...
