ActionScript 3.0 :: Local Use Of Loader, URLVariables And URLRequestMethod.GET?
Aug 4, 2009
Does anyone have a way (or an alternative to) to get code below to work on local, windows if that matters, files (so not served on a http server)?If I use code below, the IOError eventhandler is triggered (it appearantly cannot deal with the ?testing=true trailing the filename)If URLRequestMethod is set to POST, the external file loads but its loaderInfo.parameters do not contain given parameters from the URLVariables object.
Code below does work on localhost so in essence it's OK, right?I can have the loaded file poll the parent or whatever to retrieve variables or push variables after Event.COMPLETE but that does not seem as elegant...
var l:Loader = new Loader();l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onError );var u:URLRequest = new URLRequest( "somefile.swf" );u.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;var d:URLVariables = new URLVariables();d.testing = "true";
u.data = d;
l.load( u );addChild( l );
function onError( e:IOErrorEvent ):void{ trace( e );}

I try to load a file over the local network with Loader Class but I get the error "URL Not Found". I use a path like this "file://///myPCnetID/pubilcFolder/pictures/mypic.jpg" which refers to a folder on the same PC I compile and run the Air flash file.
When I copy the adress into the browser the jpg-file ist displayed corretly.

Why isn't this working as I am thinking it would:
var i:int=-1;
for each(obj in myData)
{
i++;
[Code]....
If I add i to an array (like myArr.push(i)) it will have 3 elements, 0, 1 and 2.

I'm trying to load a local xml file:
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("../xml/xmlData.xml"));
But I'm getting this security sandbox violation:
#2148: Only local-with-filesystem and trusted local SWF files may access local resources.
I don't get this error when I embed the XML file directly with the EMBED metadata tag.

I'm trying to use URLRequestMethod.GET to get some xml from our website.In ie7 the onComplete never fires so it gets stuck but it works great in every other browser. I know that to fix a similar problem with preloaders you change the onComplete to a ProgressEvent and check to see if bytesLoaded == bytesTotal.This doesn't seem to work for URLRequestMethod.GET because when bytesLoaded = bytesTotal it doesn't mean that you have your data. Is there another way to check to see when the data is finished?

I'm having the weirdest problem. I have a drawing app that is supposed to send the image to the server via URLRequest once the user has been passive for 2 seconds.
It works fine inside flash, until I take it to the browser. I've tried many different things but the URLRequest just won't fire, however if I put a button on the stage and attach the same URLRequest function to it, then it works perfectly.
Is this somekind of flash security issue that you can't do URLRequests without mouse interaction???

but when I change URLRequestMethod.GET to URLRequestMethod.POST, I'm unable to. why, and if there's a workaround?

I was actually watching a tutorial about how to make a highscore table. The problem is it was done in AS2 and I'm using AS3. I've been searching tutorials for 2 days and so far I've converted what I could. In the AS2 tutorial he uses loadVariables which works for him and I've successfully used URLVariables to pull in my php variables in AS3. But, when he pulls in his variables for instance name1="happy",score1="100", he uses the set command and these variables can automatically be referenced by var1 and var2 respectively and can populate the dynamic text fields of his score board.
Set works differently in AS3 and using URLVariables I see the string of name/value pairs and I've split them up with an array, but, when I try to display them AS3 treats these name/value pairs as a value of the array instead of name/value pairs. I understand that you can load URLVariables as name/value pairs, but, how do you get AS3 to treat them as name/value pairs once the string is loaded?Sample code:
var sumString:String = event.target.data;
var sumArray:Array= sumString.split("&");
trace(sumArray); //this shows the whole array string

I'm developing a game add-on/plugin which replaces a built in feature of an online game. The game loads an .swf therefore, my solution also has to be an swf for it to work 'in-game'.
I would like to be able to have the user press a button in the custom .swf I am making - and this would open an external application (amongst other things). I.e. if there was a button that said Notepad, it would open Notepad.exe on the machine.
My initial thinking was that i could have a XML Socket server 'daemon' runnning (c#) , which i could connect to with flash - however, as both the swf and the daemon are local, flash complained and gave this error: "Error #2010: Local-with-filesystem SWF files are not permitted to use sockets."
The only way i know to fix this - is to change the security settings of flash - not very user friendly!
So! Any thoughts on how I could otherwise go about this? I was thinking a custom http server could do the trick (connected with URLRequest) although i'm not too sure.

I have tried several different ways, but it seems that it never sends the empty array value to the server
_vars["myObject[array_list][]"] = null;
_vars["myObject[array_list][]"] = [];
It only seems to work if I provide a value (which I am trying to avoid). What I would like for it to do is send the url param: myObject[array_list][]=& (i.e. an empty value)

I have a URLVariables object (variables) that I'm setting its properties this way. [code]But the properties differ so I want to just pass an object in the following format and have it set the property names and values correctly.{fname: "fname", lname: "lname", address: "address"}I tried a forloop like this, but it's not working. Not sure exactly how I achieve the same thing as setting the properties manually.[code]

I am currently trying to write a simple class that handles form validation with a backend script, how the backend script works is that you POST a variable type and it's value and an XML is returned with any errors. The problem is, I want to be able to dynamically generate the variable names so that they don't have to be hard coded into the class. Is this possible?for example:instead of
ActionScript Code:
var urlVariables:UrlVariables = new UrlVariables();
urlVariables.first_name = "foo";

I am attempting to make a flash object that receives name/value pairs to a swf that resides inside a LCMS. There is some documentation on the topic from the lcms, but very little support. The documentation says to instantiate the flash class called URLvars (which doesn't exist, so I'm using URLVariables) and says to use this code with the following example if the name/value pair is baseColour = 0x1c617D (essentially, then, the value of the variable baseC would be 0x1c617D):
var thisURL:String = _url;
var vars:URLvars = new URLvars(thisURL);
var baseC:Number = vars.data_obj.baseColour;
I tried to do this in a very simple object, but it will not pull the name/value pairs from the LCMS

Is there a way to return URLVariables from a function
eg:
function varsLoaded():URLVariables {
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.var1 = 'string1';
[Code]....
Now what I would like to do is assign "variables" to a variable:
var theVar = varsLoaded();
trace(theVar.var1);
Obviously the code above isn't correct; just to illustrate what I'm hoping to accomplish.

I got a problem with URLVariablesprobably better to show by example
Code:
for each(var foo:String in fooArray){
variables.foo = foo;
}
this unfortunately doesn't work as intended as the old foo variable in the URLVariables get overridden each time.Thus when I output the variables as suchTried looking around the net for it but couldn't find anything. Also it seems logical enough that the variable gets overridden and I wouldn't really question it if it wasn't that ive been told the querystring should contain multiple definitions of the foo variable...

ActionScript Code:
//request is made to PHP script
function completor(evt:Event):void {
var getor:URLLoader = URLLoader(evt.target);//works
var vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables(getor.data);//doesn't work!
}
getData.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completor);
The first line outputs something like "&var1=something&var2=something_else". I just can't get why when I try to parse the data from the loader object into variables (second line) Flash simply stops and all the code after doesn't get executed.
