ActionScript 3.0 :: Sending Textfield Input To Server?
Apr 7, 2012
I've got a textfield for the user to enter their name and I want to take the users name and sent it to my server so that at the end of the game I can call the name back. (And show the user their time)The problem is that I've never done this before and haven't a clue what I need to do. I've tried creating a php doc and saved some code in that and put it in the root folder on my website but nothing :I've also had a good look at every tutorial I can find on this but they all seem to not explain the php doc very well.

We have a for loop creating text fields from arrays.
We have four arrays.
First three arrays create dynamic textfields getting their data values from a xml file.
The last array creates empty input textfields where the user enters the data.
What I'm trying to do is to send the values of these textfields to a PHP file.
The problem here is that I'm not being able to get the updated data of dynamically created input fields,which is the data that the user(visitor) enters.
P.S. : I'm using flash CS4 with action script 2.

I have created a script for an Adobe FMS application to broadcast a playlist of video files as a live stream. (internet tv)
I am now working on a custom Flash-based video player to play my stream.
How do I send information from my server-side FMS application (main.asc) to the client-side video player? (e.g: title, duration of current video player)

I have upgraded from FMS2 > Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 I added both the seriel number for FMS3 and FMS2 during the installation process. When I logged onto the admin panel there was no licence listed, and a link saying "to upgrade to unlimited connections now, click here".
So, I checked the fms.ini and no seriel was there. I put the seriel number in and restarted the server through the FMSadmin tool. Still, no licence file was showing. I then added the licence file via the admin panel and got a dialogue saying "Seriel Key "blah" Sent To The Server for approval". The seriel key now appears with a valid status of false. And no further progress after that. The documentation states that when you add the seriel key in this manner it should recognise it immediately.
Can anyone suggest what I might have done wrong? I have trebble checked the seriel number, and copied and pasted it to make sure it is exactly right.

My rtmp client connects to the server ok and rtmp data flowing ok for about 4hours, in the wireshark trace I can see that the server just stops sending data roughly after 4hours. The server version is 3.5.1, and I also try it on a 4.0 server the data stops coming from the server as well after 5+hours. There are no errors or any indication of session disconneciton in the diagnostic logs. I have also looked thru the settings in applicaiton.xml and server.xml I just don't see any obviious reason for the issue. I do send rtmp Acknowledgement to server after the client receives "window size" bytes, and the client sends ping response to server.

I am slugging through the processing of data posted from an Flash based form. I have a dev server that uses php to process input. The php script produces the following test php file variable array:
$input['VE'] = 't';
$input['A'] = 't';
$input['ML'] = '5.1';
$input['SA'] = 't';
$input['SV'] = 't';
[Code] .....
What do all the variables sent to the server mean in this context? And, is there a tutorial focusing on form handling with Actionscript 3.0?

I am going nuts here. I've searched exhaustively, and cannot seem to find anyone else experiencing my issue, so it must be something elementary I am not grasping. I'm creating TextFields dynamically, for use as input boxes:
Code:
function makeText(whatParent, whatText, whatFormat, input){
var thisTextField:TextField = new TextField();

I have created a flash game. When you are finished playing we would like to invite the user to share the site with a friend. We have designed an email that should be sent to the email address entered on the site. I searched the forums but could not find what I am looking for. I don't want to send a message from a Flash text Field or input form, I want to send a custom email to the the entered email address.

How can I send a combo box'es labels to a text box? I would just like it to display whatever the user picked in a text box. I tried using a listener:
objComboListener = new Object();
objComboListener.change = function(eventObj){
mon.text = eventObj.target.value;
} mon_cb.addEventListener("change", objComboListener);
mon.text is the textbox, mon_cb is the combo box.
There are two problems with the above code though:
A. It displays my data, and not the labels.
B. It only displays the first selection. E.g.; if I choose something, it will display that thing, but if I choose another choice, it continues to display the first selection.

I have an input box with a variable name. When the user enters some text and presses a button that variable is sent to a php file using the GET method. Then the info is put into a database. When I checked my database, I found that a load of styling html tags has been included. I want for my input text box to have styled text, but I don't want that styling /html tags to be sent to the php file. I know I could use strip_tags in php to get rid of the html tags, but surely there's a way of not sending the tags at all, just the text content of my variable?

We're writing a flash application that can download a MP3 file, convert it to a Sound object, get the raw data and make some processing (like adding sounds, change octaves). After the processing, we want to send the data back to the server in chunks, so the server will be able to glue the data together and recover the new generated file. The problem is: if we send to the server "wav" pieces of sound, we are able to glue them together without any problem in the generated file. However, if we convert each wav piece to a mp3 file (so we can send a smaller file to the server) and join the mp3 files at the server, the result is a sound with some problems at the merge point.
This is how we load the mp3 file from the server:
sourceSnd.load(new URLRequest("sample url to mp3"));
sourceSnd.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, carregou);
This is how we convert each piece of mp3 to bytearray and wav:

I have a project, that sends JPG data to server. 3 hours ago this script was working fine. Here is the as3:
switchToLooking();
content.bgr.visible = true; //SETS WHITE BACKGROUND
var jpgSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData(273, 414);
jpgSource.draw(content.content); //ACtual movieClip that I'm sending as bitmap data
var jpgEncoder:JPGEncoder = new JPGEncoder(100);
[Code] .....
The problem is - $GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"] is not set. I'm just not receiving any jpg data. But $_POST has 200 indexes. I know that it sends correct bitmapData, because I tried adding it to stage and it worked. And I know, that the request is reaching the server, because I get the right response. But I don't know, what the problem is. Maybe there is any other approach at the php side?

At the moment, I am posting information from my flash to a PHP page within the same server. This causes no problems, as I am posting to a PHP file within the same directory.
form.loadVariables("email.php", "POST");
However, I am wanting to place my 'WIDGET' on other sites but still post the information back to my server to the PHP file (email.php).

I am in the process of creating a flash site for friend of mine. He wants to be able to have a guest list for his events in DC. I have created form boxes and have given them all "instance names". But I have absoultely NO clue how to have the text entered by people trying to get on the guest list sent to my server so we can all read it.
I have a book on Flash but it really doest explain how to do it at all. I'm guessing I need to do some actionscript?

I am attempting to send XML data to a PHP script from my server-side app using the following code:
var my_xml = new XML("<highscore><name>Ernie</name><score>13045</score></highscore>"); my_xml.contentType = "text/xml"; my_xml.send("http://www.server.com/temp/fms_post.php");
I am logging anything that the outside server receives at $_REQUEST, $_POST, $_GET. I can see that my server-side app is reaching out to the external server, but the data is always blank.

I have a flex app which allows user to create some content. this content will then be sent via xml back to the server:
private function saveBackXMLToServer():void {
var params:Object = {};
params["xml_file"] = XML_content();
http_Service.send(params);
}
My problem is, that the transport of the data this way is very slow... It takes about 20 sec for 10'000 lines of XML... How can this be done better?
I'm trying to follow all of your hints, but they don't seem to be simple to change. My code is done in a way that I can't get access to every Object, and save it. So what I do is to load the swf file with one xml, and return the whole xml after I run it. My guess is, that the time isn't spent on transporting those lines to the web server (this task gets done quickly normally), I thing that there happens something on the send function of the HTTPService that every object must get changed, before sending...
UPDATE2: I just realized that it is not a matter of the flex app it is a matter of the rails app. It receives a 700 KB String. I guess it is not done for handling such a object. How to transport it then? I tryed to work with the file upload but couldn't get it done... Error 2037 was occuring! I'll go on trying.

I'm using Mate's RemoteObjectInvoker to call methods in my FluorineFX based API. However, all requests seem to be sent to the server sequentiality. That is, if I dispatch a group of messages at the same time, the 2nd one isn't sent until the first returns. Is there anyway to change this behavior?

It does not however tell me how to take the compiled information I imputed, send it to an asp scripting page which sends that information to a database and at the same time send the seller of the product an email stating that someone has registered for their product.
Can I do all this with a simple submit button?
