ActionScript 3.0 :: Sending Variable Values To Javascript?
Sep 9, 2008
I'd like to enable the user to enter several parameters within the flash plugin. These influence the flash movie. The flash file itself works perfectly fine. But now I also want to access and process these parameters on a Javascript function.
I tried the external.Interface and navigatetoURL method but couldnt achieve the required result. (The 'link' between flash and javascript doesn't seem to work...)
So how / which is the best way to transfer parameters from AS3 to Javascript on the server ?

I'm wondering if its possible to do what I'm thinking, and if it is possible, does anyone know of a flash object that does what I need? I know a Flash object can provide a javascript API to interact with it, what I dont know is can Flash send an email directly without the need to talk to the webserver to do so? If thats possible would it not be possible to write a flash object that did nothing but provide an API to send emails? Has such a thing been created that is out there for others to use?
I'm looking to create a email form on a web page but the site is static (no server scripting). In my situation server scripting is not possible as there is no server, the site is 100% client side on a CD/DVD/USB Stick.

I need to send my flash file some values to .as file.
Example: I have 2 buttons.
Actionscript Code:
Button1.onRelease = function(){myXML.load("something1");};
Button2.onRelease = function(){myXML.load("something3");};
And if I press the button then AS3 get myxml.load value
Actionscript Code:
private var xmlURL:String = HERE';

I think this is very simple but I'm obviously missing something. I want to insert input data from Flash into a database through a PHP file but although I seem to be able to create new records in the db through this script, no actual data (in this case the value of a variable called "nombre") is recorded. What am I doing wrong? Here is the AS3 script:
[Code]...
This myVariables.nombre = name_txt.text; doesn't seem to be working although a new record is created in the db. The textfield is correctly named and everything but.

I have a flash banner1.swf (AS2) on [URL] (html-file)
How do I send 4 values from banner.swf to banner2.swf?
- banner2.swf is on another domain
- send the values to [URL] (php-file)
- And output the values into textfields on banner2.swf
- Inside banner2.swf I also want to make all the comparison and editing of the values.
I send the values in banner1.swf:
Code:
$envelope.carValue1 = value1;
$envelope.carValue2 = value2;
$envelope.carValue3 = value3;
$envelope.carValue4 = value4;
_root.$envelope.send("[URL]","_blank","POST");
Is there any way to only send the values directly to banner2.swf without using any PHP script in test.php? The problem I get is that banner2.swf doesn't catch any values. How do receive the sent values into banner2.swf? Do I have to have banner1.swf in php-file and banner2.swf in php-file? Is there any difference if both the swf:s are on the same domain or not?

I've got a piece of JavaScript code in an HTML file which detects the height and width of the browser. What I'd like to do is pass the height and width values to Flash. I've followed the Adobe documentation for this using the ExternalInterface class but can't get it to work. For some reason the sendDataToFlash(); function in my JS isn't being called. Here's my code (NB. I'm only trying to pass the height value at the moment as a test):
HTML file with JS:
<script src="Scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript">
</script><script type="text/javascript">
var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0;
function getDimensions() {
if( typeof( window.innerWidth

I am having many websites . In that I have to send some parameters from php to flash. All the parameters are getting correctly displayed in flash except the currency symbol. These currency symbols are extracted from db to php in form of html entities like(& pound;). I can't change the db as it will require many changes in all websites of mine. I have used rawurlencode in php before sending to flash but in flash it gets displayed as & pound; in flash. I have given space between "&" and "pound;" so it is not converted to symbol in the post . In db it is correctly entered with no space. Previously , I was sending directly by writing the object tag in php file and and writing the parameters in params tag withing object tag. It was working perfectly fine . Now I have start using swfobject.js javascript library of hosted by google for embedding the flash content. Now its not working ( currency symbol is not getting displayed instead it html entity unicode shown above is getting displayed.) . I can't change the flash files also. I have to handle it from php or javascript code only.

In our application we have an embedded Flash control (in a HTML file in our Browser control) that shows some games. I looking for some way to call / notify this Flash control from C++ or JavaScript when some events are happening outside of it in order to display something / set it's internal values.
how (if possible) this could be acheived? I think there is an option to call JavaScript from C++ and then JavaScript call Flash, but that's looks a bit tricky to me. is there is a way to "call" the Flash control "directly" or send a message to it.

I have a ColdFusion function which sends analytics called from a Flex sendPageAnalytics() function to a SQL database when the user navigates - this works perfectly.What I am trying to do is have the Flex application send a bunch of analytics when the user closes their browser, therefore providing information about the last navigation.
I have used an ExternalInterface callback and listener for window.onbeforeunload and a trace statement tells me that this is working fine.My problem is that when all bundled together, I get as far as tracing out that the sendPageAnalytics() function has been called, but I do not get a sendPageAnalyticsFaultHandler() trace or a sendPageAnalyticsResultHandler() trace, which I do on every other sendPageAnalytics() call.

I'm trying to pass the contents of variable playnoyes to the long line of code below to decide whether or not to autoplay the flash movie, but doing it as I have below, the resultant line of code has the variable in quotes and therefore the code doesn't execute it as expected. My question is, how can I pass the variable so that the resulting line of code doesn't have the quotes around the variable value.
var playnoyes='true';

I am trying to post the score that the player achieves to a database. I have set a web page "highScores.aspx" which gets a query string variable "webScore" and puts it in a database. This works fine as tested in a browser.
The problem I have is getting the correct information into the query string variable. I have:
form.loadVariables("http://www.rightjustified.co.uk/highScores.aspx", "GET");
where the text in question is located inside "form" (which is a movie clip). I've been following this tutorial [URL] and while not really relevant, it's got me further than anything else. The problem with this tutorial is it relies on the user entering text, whereas I am just displaying out the score in some dynamic text. This means that in output I get the following error:
[Code]....
I should point out, I do not need to read the text to get the value as it is stored in a variable beforehand, I just display it to the player via some dynamic text, but I'm not sure how to use this to my advantage.

This is going to sound like a really stupid query, but I'm totally new to this. I can grab the contents of a single variable from a php page and display it in a field in Flash, which works great. I do this using the echo command and placing an & before the variable to be sent. e.g. echo "&textData=$contentSenttoFlash";
When I embed the flash movie into the php page though, the echo command also prints that variable to the screen, so that it appears both in the flash movie (which I want), and again as a text string on the page (which I don't want). Is there any way to prevent the php printing the variable as well whilst using this method?

I'm using a preloader SWF to load my content SWF and XML file, and when the COMPLETE event fires I'm using the following code to send my XML data to the content SWF -ActionScript Code:evt.target.content.sendXML(XMLData);I then have a sendXML function in the content SWF that picks up the data.This works - but I can't access XMLData right away (it's null if I trace it). But if I set up a timer with a tiny delay which then checks XMLData, the information is there.It seems to be a bit of a dumb way to do things. Has anoyone else got a better solution or a way that will allow access to the variable right away?
