I've been learning actionscript 3 for the past few days and really enjoying it. However I've spent hours trying to find out how to do something very simple in HTML. Say I have a form like this...
I am trying to create a simple form using Actionscript 3 that will collect data from a form, then pass that data to an asp file. I have attached the following code to the submit button,but this is not working.I'm not sure if I have to add anything else and I don't understand why this is not working. I'm trying to load all the variable info into one variable called email form.
submit_btn.onRelease = function() { var emailform:text; emailform.email_txt = email_txt.text;[code]......
I'm very beginner in Flash. I'm trying to use document class only. I created a textBox and setting some value with
textBox1.text = 10;
When running, the stage flickers.How can I avoid this flickering effect without using code in timeline but only in document class ?
Update: Would like code in both cases:
all programmatically (no objects on stage at design time)put elements on stage with no actionscript in timelines and control them in document class with actionscript.
I wanted to create a simple flash contact form for my flash website. I went through Lee's tutorial on how to create the contact form and PHP file to go with it. I've uploaded everything to my server and tested the form. My flash form consists of Name, Subject, Message, and Email fields. When I receive the email all that comes through is this with none of the actual message that was written IN the contact form:
Name: Subject: Message: Email: The 'From' field is also blank. I don't know if my problem is with flash, my PHP code, or with my server. Can someone take a look at this and tell me what's wrong? I can't seem to find any errors from Lee's tutorial with my code or labeling.
I have posted the following in the Adobe forums a couple of days ago. I didn't get a respond and I also think I accidentally posted it in the wrong forum. So here's the post:Let me introduce myself. My name is Wisse and I have been working with Adobe products since I was a child at the age of 8 (10 years ago). Well, then it was called Macromedia Flash but you understand what I mean. I have always been using flash for making animations and small simple applications (for presentations and games) in my spare time. I also use photoshop and dreamweaver for making sites and other things. So I will soon order the new CS5 web design collection.
I have a big (biggest so far) project coming up and before I really started I thought it'd be best to orient on what Flash application(s) to use and how I will make this project. So here is the plan:I am making a dutch driving exam site where people can take practice exams for a small text message fee. The application will have to look slick and work smoothly. I made this to clarify what the application has to do.I have never worked with Flash Builder and Catalyst but I kind of like the idea of making nice looking interfaces using Catalyst and then export them to Flash Builder. But as I just said, I have never worked with Flash builder and so I don't know whether I will be able to make this on Flash Builder (due to it's complexity). Flash builder also has some nice options for accessing external data (the XML, HTTP API and PHP in this case). Catalyst's data list designer and transition animator will save a lot of time and effort when compared to doing it manually in Flash Pro. The big issue here is that I have no idea how to script the rest in Flash builder. but I want to make to be sure that Builder is the best way to go before doing so.But on the other hand, I am quite familiar with flash and that could also save time. Flash is a bit harder to use when I want to make a good UI and Flash builder wins when you look at the server communication and the debugging tools.
I am trying to program a simple chat program. I have looked all over the net for an easy to use tutorial for exchanging information between Flash 5 and a MySQL database. The reason this is so hard is because I just started PHP and MySQL last week.
A. Sending 1 line of text to a table in a MySQL database via PHP.
B. Allow flash to retrieve the latest line of text from a table.
Is there a really simple way of creating a Flash time/date signature? I did a couple videos in sort of a surveilance camera style. So I was hoping to do an overlay with the date and have the time going up in seconds.

I can think of some tedious long ways of doing it, just wondering if there's an easy way to do it in AS3
I want to make a contact form on my website so that when the user types info into the input textboxes I have and presses the SEND button, the message will automatically send, instead of opening up their mail service and having them manually send it.[url]...
And it worked, but when I tested it, it just when to my Outlook and had already entered everything in the subject and message, but I had to manually send it.[code]...
I'm trying to create a very simple flash:An input text field, in which the viewer is to enter a simple word (in this case, let's say the word is "earth.") Beneath this text field is a button.When the button is clicked, flash should detect whether the user entered the word "earth"- if they entered "earth", they get sent to frame 2 of this movie. If they typed something else, then they get sent to frame 3.Now, this should be pretty simple, but every attempt I've made has failed, and every search for a simple tutorial/example of how to compose the script meets with no results. Currently, this is the script I put on the button (The input text field has been given the instance name of "answer_1"):[code]
I am trying to make the SIMPLEST POSSIBLE MP# player using the player component preinstalled in flash.It is very simple, the code is as follows:
Code: on (release) { player.contentPath ="Song.mp3" player.play() } ("player" is the mp3 component)
This works if I want a single track to be selected and played.Now, I need it to AUTOMATICALLY LOAD THE NEXT TRACK, which I will input in the code.I am thinking something like this:
I am building an order form and here's the basic design:
Layout: Item - Description - Price - Quantity - Total
Functions: Print - Send by email
The user types the quantity of items desired and the total is calculated.
My challenge is to build it without dynamic functions.
What I'm missing is the code for typing the desired quantity of items, adding total, printing and emailing the completed form. (Not sure it can be done without php or cfm)

how would i go about uploading my canvas , and some form data (name,e-mail, etc) to a php, and how would i retrieve that data on the php page. i looked at the filereference.upload method and it appears that you have to use the browse method first, thus wouldn't work with uploading the canvas. I also looked at the urlloader and it looks like that only gets data into app..
I am new to server side applications and I have been working my brains out on an e-form project.Tried several tutorials and examples that were quite useful in getting me familiar with cfm, php etc. but still can't complete my project.What I want to do: set a simple e-form that adds up prices and then mails the results. No billing, no credit card security stuff involved, just sending the info to the store manager who will use it to invoice.So far, I have a basic form that adds up the items using static, input and dynamic text fields. I also have a simple e-mail form. They both work fine but I need to combine the two. Somehow incorporate the e-mail functions to the "shopping kart" form and email them.

I started creating a simple navigation bar: [URL] But decided to make individual buttons: [URL]
As you can see the latter repeats, however the code (after about an hour checking it seems to be identical: Actions for frame one: _root.buy_mc.onEnterFrame = function() { if (mouse_over_buy_mc) { _root.buy_mc.nextFrame(); } else { _root.buy_mc.prevFrame(); }};
Actions for invisible button: on (rollOver) { _root.mouse_over_buy_mc = true; } on (rollOut) { _root.mouse_over_buy_mc = fstartlse; }on (release){ getURL("[URL]"); }
I was wondering how would i go about making a simple application that can be run on a website that can: -show a opening page that will stay for 5 seconds (for advertisments)
-show random pictures (well they will only be text)
This is a question for using Flash MX. I'm supposed to design an order form for a website, but not sure how to do it. I'll describe what it needs to do. It's for a band's website where they are selling CDs directly from them. They are using PayPal for people with credit cards, but if someone wants to send check or money orders I need to create a form that calculates totals, tax, whatnot and makes a receipt to print out. They are to physically send the check to the band. If the customer is buying less than 5 CDs then the price is 14.00 ea. If it's 5 or more, then the price is 11.00 ea. And there is sales tax in CA. So, scripting to create this. I'm really a novice at scripting and have created music players and that's about it.
I have created a small application with three different slides.

On the contact page i have the following 'skeleton' code.. which i have to follow..[code]i need basic validation such as text lentgh, and also correct email format (i.e. containing a '@'
I'm trying to practice making a simple video phone app so I'm trying to make a program to send a video and recieve a video using Cirrus from Adobe. I'm having trouble recieving the stream though. Here is the cod that I'm using:
[code]...
Inside of the getVideoReveiver() function I'm getting the flag to go off from writeText("flag") then I get and output in the text box of:
NetStream.Play.Reset NetStream.Play.Start
from the netStreamHandler, but the video never shows up in the receiving video element.I'm running this is two different videos of the same computer and taking the nearID from one stream and pasting it into the textInput theirID. I'm not sure what to try next?
How do i use the on(dragover), becuase i am making a simple randomness game,(to start off) because i have something that you can drag, and i want to make it if you drag the thing over it it takes you to a new keyframe.Here is the movie clip i want to be drug on: (nothing happens)
how to respond when a rectangle hits another rectangle? I already know how to detect the collision, I just don't know how to respond to it. I'm just trying making a simple side-scrolling platform game where I have platforms I can walk on and bump against on all sides.
making my image gallery, but it only works as each image in the array is clicked. Now I am trying to make the gallery move automatically to the next image in the array every 5 seconds while still giving the user the ability to click on an image to view the one that they want.Here is my code so far (like i said it works great, but only as a click-able gallery):
making a simple game with video stills matching a running audio track.my audio is an MP3 i built in GarageBand. all works well in flash, but when rendered to QT, the audio and video go out of sync, and some video drops out too.have put all audios on their own layer and streamed them all too, set settings in Publish to 64, but still have same problem
I have a super involved and somewhat silly site I've been working on for a long time piecing together fragments of AS2 code and modifying them to the best of my limited ability.The site is here:http:[url]....I am finally adding the last steps, a series of contact forms with a PHP script in the back end. Anyway, I implemented a form script and have it triggered by clicking the "CONTACT" button you can see on the lower bar. So, click contact and once the form opens (an external SWF loaded into an MC), type away and everything works fine unless you use the letter "f" in either upper or lowercase. It causes the screen to flash and for the form input to lose focus.It works (in that you can enter everything normally -- the form doesn't function, but that's just the PHP which I have yet to edit.)
I have a qtwebkit browser with Mozilla NPAPI plugins from which I access a web page. This page contains flash forms and I need to be able to access and manipulate its elements. Does anyone knows if this is possible and how?
I was following 1 of the flash tutorials about creating a flash form and using .php to send the form to myself.I've followed all the instructions but upon uploading, the file just doesn't seem to work. I hope to have some kind of form in my new website.
I have a flash form that need to submit values to a PHP file.I am using in flash: varsToSend.send("subsrcibe.php","process","POST"); The "subsrcibe.php" contains a form that is connected directly to a database.What i want to do is, to load the variables from Flash to this PHP file, and then submit them automatically to the database (The PHP page should not open to the users).
