I would like to make a simple call to a script passing the data via http POST.In particular I would like to pass two parameters:
1) a file
2) a string containing the name of the file
How can I do that ?
I'm trying to reproduce a POST request that was captured from WireShark using PHP. This POST request was sent by a Flash (.swf) object, so it's a little bit complicated in configuring the header.It does not print out anything in the end, so there must be something wrong with PHP code that I could not see.Here is what WireShark captured:
POST /engine/ HTTP/1.1
Host: abcdef.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8[code]....
The result is a blank page instead of response from server.
I am making dynamic post values to post to a URL.
[Code]...
Maybe I am doing this the hard way with eval, is there an easier way, such as passing an array of post variables?
What i want to do is open a new browser window, (preferably a pop-up window) and have it display results based on POST data sent from flash. Like a form that targets _blank or something.

How to make POST requests from Flash/Flex?
When i crate flash mail list I past the variables via an object
Code:
variables.name = formName;
variables.mail = formMail;
etc.
So I'm trying to code an AIR widget for Tumblr. Before I actually start working on the widget, I wanted to play around with AS3 and the Tumblr API to do simple things, like reading and writing posts, editing posts etc. I got reading posts working, but when it comes to creating posts I run into an unknown brickwall. Here's the instructions from Tumblr's API doc on making a POST request:
The Write API is a very simple HTTP interface. To create a post, send a POST request to [URL] with the following parameters:
Email - Your account's email address.
password - Your account's password.
type - The post type.
These are the valid values for the type parameter, with the associated content parameters that each type supports:
Regular - Requires at least one:
Title
Body (HTML allowed)
[URL]
And here's my AS3 code:
import flash.net.*
gogo.buttonMode = true; // gogo is the instance name of a MC on the stage
gogo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, go);
function go(e:MouseEvent):void{
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
[Code] .....
And for the life of me, no matter how simple I make this code, I cannot get it to work.
I'm basically interacting with a third party API flash file to send HTTP POST requests to my server. know I'm on somewhat the right path because it requires a crossdomain.xml file, and before I added that part nothing in the POST variables was showing up, however since I added that file there are 4 variables that are set, these POST variables are sent by the application to give me basic information about the file.. but I actually need to read the RAW POST data to actually save the image being sent by the Flash.I'm aware there are 3 ways...$GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA'] $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA which is probably the same as the firstfile_get_contents('php://input')For whatever reason, neither of these "work". By "work" I mean they're not being set, when I var dump them I get nothing.
Could it be that there's a setting in php.ini that I need to set, or perhaps the Flash application is truly not sending the actual image? I think it's doing the right thing, because it's a semi popular API and it's used by a couple other sites so I'm pretty sure it's right on their end.
I'm trying to optimize a site I'm building with Django/Flash and am having a problem using Django's iterate over chunks() feature. I'm sending an image from Flash to Django using request.POST data rather than through a form (using request.FILES). The problem I foresee is that if there is large user volume, I could potentially kill memory. But it seems that Django only allows iterating over chunks with request.FILES. Is there a way to:
1) wrap my request.POST data into a request.FILES (thus spoofing Django)
or
2) use chunks() with request.POST data
When trying to send a POST request to an ASP.NET asmx web service I am seeing (in Charles and Firebug) it go through as a GET. Here is my AS3

View 1 RepliesI basically have a form inside of Flash that I need to submit to a server-side processing page, which will then return either json or xml telling if it succeeded or not ( json, xml I suppose ).

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a Flash AS2 application that needs to post JSON data to a web service.In previous projects, I've used LoadVars.send() or LoadVars.sendAndLoad() successfully to manage this:
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
send_lv.data = JSON.stringify({some json object});
var response_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
response_lv.onData = function(rawdata) {

In somepage.php, I can grab that JSON data using $_POST['data'].However, on this project, the developer of the web service requires the JSON content to be the BODY of the request (i.e., not a name/value pair). Is this possible with LoadVars?
I'm trying to solve a problem where I have a nice Flash button and when a user presses that button I need an Ajax request to be sent to the server in order to process some RJS code. I am using ActionScript3 to do URL handling logic of my Flash button. Has anyone done anything similar?

When Flex application make an asynchronus HTTP request, does it add a special header to the request, like some JavaScript framework does? Something that indicates whether this request is an AJAX call/not.I just want my server side code to return different response format, depending on whether the request is made from browser/flex.
