I'm not too sure how to amend the php code

I'm almost there and this will be fundamental to my website as I can create important stats on hundreds of children.
When you login you type in your username and password and gain access to course.Down the line you play games and take tests. Using URLVariables you post and update a mysql dbase thought a php script.HOWEVER, at the moment I am cheating - I am passing in the username through the game with the scores.The reason is that I don't know where to keep that username when I first logged on. It should be kept somewhere as some kind of global variable.Perhaps it is kept in the container movie when we first gain access to course.
View 8 RepliesI have a Flash website with 3 interfaces( 3 frames with movie clips inside). they have a button that goes to different loaded .html page(text). But once the back button is pushed on the web browser, it always goes back to the first frame instead of the actual last page, which might have been frame 2 or 3.

View 2 RepliesAnyways I am using action script 3.0 and I created multiple layers using just one scene. I created a layer with lables on them to mark where I want my buttons to point to and go to. I have the stop (); on the first frame. And I made my buttons mostly interactive with movie symbols and tweens.My first scene I have 2 doors, the user can pick which door to go to and it takes them into a different path.I made the buttons that are clicked to go forward, and then I tried to make an invisible button on the button edge of the scene to go backwards However, the PROBLEM is when I click my button to go backwards I am stuck on the first page and can't move forward.
function gotoOne(evt:Event):void{ gotoAndStop("one")}backbutton1.addEventListener("click",gotoOne);
function gotoFour(evt:Event):void{

I have a GUI using Flex. I have a condition like i need to execute some command line arguments in the local machine and get the results back or output back to a textbox area. How can i do a button on submit, execute command in the local machine and return the output?Command to execute example:
echo logfile.log | grep username
Code:
button1.onRelease = function ()

I am working on a having external swfs get loaded into the main swf one by one from an array.I can get the first one to load, but it just keeps on playing the first item in the array over and over, instead of loading the next movie. I have a container on my stage, cleverly named "container" and I am using AS2 and loadMovie.
I am guessing my conditon on my if statement is off, but I am not sure how to tell the onEnterFrame to check the currentframe of the loaded swf and not the container itself. I might be way off, but in my mind I feel like this mostly makes sense, but knowing Flash it is probably not nearly enough coding.I might also add this won't be running on the web, so I don't need to worry about preloading swfs since it will be running directly off a PC onto a screen in our office.Here is my code:
Code:
var myClips:Array = ["movie1.swf", "movie2.swf", "movie3.swf", "white_logo.swf"];
var i:Number = 0;
_root.container.onEnterFrame = function() {[code].....
I've got the standard scene 1 with three frames on it. the first frame has a movie clip with about a 70 frame timeline. the second frame has a movie clip with about a 20 frame timeline. the third frame is black with a stop action. i'm trying to make a leaderboard banner, and i need each clip to play one after the other.
right now, when ctrl+enter it plays nothing. i actually have to rewind it to have it play the first clip. then it just repeats the first clip and completely skips the second. in the first clip's timeline, I have a parent.gotoAndPlay(2); on the last frame.

View 1 Repliesi want to know how we can make back button in flash to go back to page same like browser back button.
View 1 RepliesIn my apps, i would like to:
1)have a pop-up menu when a button is touched, then ok to close but still in the same page as it is
2)invoke the popup menu by using samsung's "MENU keycode",then ok to return the same page as it is
3)having the user to swipe 5 images to view them, left image as 1st and 5th image as last image with smooth transitions
4)and also using the "BACK keycode" to go back to previous page
Why will this not work? I get back: "Welcome Back, DEFINED." The firstToUpper function will not run. I set the variable for Party already.
Players = firstToUpper(Party); function firstToUpper(word) { firstLetter = word.substring(1, 0); restOfWord = word.substring(1); return (firstLetter.toUpperCase()+restOfWord); trace("hey")}Hiusername.text = ("Welcome Back, " + Players);
basically this code will work like a browser back button its very simple but "could end up very long" basically it will act "similiar to the browser back button"
Code:
on (release) {
if(page1 = _currentframe){
_root.gotoAndStop("quiz");
} else if (page0 = _currentframe){
[code]....
it works when the (page1 = _currentframe){ is rotated with the first if statement...because for somereason it seems to not recognise the "else if's"
Sometimes flash seems to execute two loops faster that one loop which contains all of the actions that the first two loops contain. Does flash cash processes so that repetitive processes are performed faster if they are performed back-to-back?
View 9 RepliesI have been working on a tutorial in Flash on the topic of Flash () for two days, and I am just finishing up on a template. I have fixed five bugs, but I cannot think of how to fix this last one. I'd rather actually fix the problem this time, instead of improvising . So, here is what is going on:
I have this thing at the end where you have to enter in the code that I taught the viewer to proceed, then hit the continue button to finish the tutorial. But for some reason, whenever I try to go back with the back arrow, it does, but then I can't go forward with the forward arrow until I reach the first frame that contains actual tutorial ("page" 2). Then it works again. It seems really random, but there is [obviously] a good explanation for it. I thought it might have something to do with the fact that all of the arrows up to the "test" part, excluding the back arrow there, have the exact same instance name. However, "page" 2 is the 2nd time it is used (introduction, then the "page" 2, then 3, 4, 5, and 6, then the test part thing), so it makes less sense that it would work the 2nd time, but not the third, fourth, fifth, or sixth. And I know there's nothing wrong with the code itself:

i have a question concerning the 3d carousel :
is it possible to make a 'back button' appear somewhere on the scene after we click on an icon of the carousel ?
i know that clicking on the icon itself sends back to the spinning carousel but it may not seem obvious to people not used to flash the web in general.
I have a small title screen which is capable of opening one of two swf's depending on which button the user presses(see code below).When I put similar code in either of the swf's that are opened on the button click to go back to the title screen, the title screen opens with the previous swf still playing in the background. How do I unload a previous swf once the the new one is open?
Code:
var movieLoader:Loader = new Loader();
swf1Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openSWF1 );
swf2Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openSWF2 );

View 3 RepliesI accidentally clicked an area on the timeline that made all the frames to the right of the layers disappear. I've gone through all the menus including VIEW and WINDOW where I thought I would be able to make the frames appear and can't find it anywhere!

I started using Flash CS5. I spent many hours working on a .FLA file. Saving as I went and at one point Flash CS5 crashed during the save. The .fla file is now corrupt. The new .fla format is essentially a .zip file. So I was able to change the file name to *.zip and explore inside of it. The DOMDocument.xml file is corrupt and dead. The DOMDocument.xml is the timeline so all my placement and animation is gone. However, my LIBRARY folder is in tact and has all of my library items as *.xml files. How I can get those library items into another .fla file so I don't lose ALL my work? I've tried creating a new .fla file and dragging the LIBRARY folder into the new .fla, but my library items don't show up when I load the new .fla in the Flash CS5 IDE.
