ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing Data In Multiple Page Survery
Nov 7, 2009
I am using labels for the pages so they are all on the same timeline. When the user gets to the last page there is a submit button that sends all the variables to a php mailform file. However I keep getting TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. I dont think my variables are not being passed.[code]
I'm trying to take a variable from a php page and send it to flash to then use in a link.I'm having problems just selecting ONE variable from the print function, the code will help explain:
It collects all the data fine but it does not print it out correctly, it prints out all the variables in the php in one link. For example: If i click the facebook icon, i will be taken to http:[url].... This also happens with the other icons (Youtube and Twitter).
Im trying to use dynamic SQL tables on my PHP server so I need to pass the table name to the PHP script. I don't understand why the Data Management system that sets up CRUD won't allow this extra parameter. It says it can only have one input: item. I can get all records, but when I try to create, update, or delete I get an error.
Or is there another way I can pass the tablename variable to the php file before I call any functions?
We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.
I have form in flash with input text fields with Var field set to t2_2 t3_2 t4_2... what i want to do when user enter values and press buton it should post data(values) to aspx page - how can i do that ? i saw what i did
[Code].....
then i can access t2_2 value on aspx page, so what shoul i put before getURL so it will set values from texboxes
i need to beable to click on a play/stop button in flash to play/stop music... and then when you go to another page in the site the flash needs to remember what the music control is set to... ie. because the page reloads (cant avoid this) it just restarts the music even if it was set to stop.the way i was originally thinking of doing it was to create a javascript variable in the page... then in the flash pass a boolean to the javascript variable when it is clicked (not sure how u do that)... then every link on the page would check what the javascript variable is ie. on or off. etc.
I have an asp.net page where I get the user_id from who's logged in. Now I need to pass this user_id to a flex application that runs in an asp.net page as a .swf. How can I get this user_id in a variable in my flex application.Or what is the best way to get the user_id into flex.
I checked out some of the posts in this forum, but i don't think they are quite what I am looking for.I have a database which stores a lot of user information.I need to gain access to this database and pull certain info from it and then load it into flash.I thought the easiest way to do this would be to load the variables/arrays and declare them in the php, the forward the variables into the .swf (on tht page)
I am building a page, like a table of contents (TOC) showing a list of videos the user can select from. It's written in PHP and populated by a MySQL database. There's a thumbnail and descriptive text which are linked to a new page with Strobe Media Playback. Videos will be delivered via RTMP stream from Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5.
What I want to do: Pass the filename of the video that was selected on the TOC page into the actionscript for the Strobe player on the player page. I have found a couple of posts here that related to similar issues, but I'm new to AS3 and was not certain if the other folks wanted to accomplish the same thing I do.
here's another one about passing data to an asp page. I'm trying to pass a variable through a string to an asp page. I cannot understand why this is not working. Here is my code:
this.btn1.onRelease = function (){loadVariables("http://www.mywebsite.com/paragonstats/flashprogress.asp?pagename=introduction","POST"); }
If I paste my url in a browser, it triggers the asp page as it should. But this code is not working from flash. If I use getURL, it works, but it opens another browser window or redirects my movie. I'm just trying to track click through statistics. I've even set up a movie with just one button on the root with this code and it won't work.
I've been writing movies in AS2 that have variables passed to them via the src parameter of the page code, e.g. src="/Flash/theMovie.swf?value=1"
Then in the AS I don't need to define 'val', I can use it straight away. However, in AS3 - at least, as I understand it - it seems that I can't drop 'val' into the code without defining it, as it throws ""1120: Access of undefined property val".
So, if I add a line of code public var val:Number; or somesuch, will this be enough to ensure 'val' is useable once it comes through from the page?
I've made a XML based Mp3 player using Flash 8 and AS2. The player is working just fine, I mean playing song on previous and next button. Now I want to enlarge this and my idea is to list all the mp3s on a PhP page and allow user to listen to any song randomly. This means, user can click any song name and that song will start playing in the player.
My problem over here is; the song listing and the player will be on one single page and clicking on any song wont reload that page to play the selected song but just reload the content of the mp3 player.
I know this can be done in Javascript. My thought on this is: On clicking each song name, I need to call a JS function and pass to it the "ID" of the song. This JS function needs to pass "that ID" to the swf which will play the song.
Keeping aside the complexity involve in ActionScript to fetch the song name as per the passed ID, I need to know how to pass this ID from JS to AS
On a page I have a an iFrame and a swf, I've been trying to use ExternalInterface to pass values from the swf to the iFrame, anyone ever tried this and had any luck? I won't be able to post any code until tomorrow, will update then if needed.Here is a visualization of what I need to accomplish, perhaps if it can't be done the way I said someone will have a suggestion of another way to accomplish this.
I am using ActionScript 3 to capture image via users webcam in one of my Asp.net Page. Here is the code i am using
package { import flash.display.Sprite;
[Code]....
Here the image is saved using file reference, which prompts the user to save. However i want that the image should be sent to asp.net page or server, so that i can get the image and save it to the database
I am trying to pass a variable from my .aspx page into my published swf file. I am using the code below, and using swfobject to try to pass my variable. (I am very comfortable with swfobject and would prefer, if possible, to avoid using FlashVars.) The variable myVar represents the name of an image file, and will be a different image for each user on my site. I am using Flash CS4, and AS3. I only mention that because I was able to do this in CS3 using AS3, yet certain things have been deprecated in CS4 - hence my code does not work. And for what I'm doing and how I'm doing it I cannot use CS3 to create my swf file. Anyway, here is the code:
So I'm wanting to create a DocumentClass that is willing to accept a variable for a path to an XML file, passed in from the HTML, like thisindex.HTML page would have this: mySWF.swf?xmlPath=xml/xmlFileName.xmlIn the FLA (SWF) I would have only a DocumentClass load a .AS file.In the .AS File I need to accept or read the paramater being passed in from the HTML page.
I would like to pass my SWF file an amount of data (textual).Is there some limit? I am talking about thousands of characters longI know the simple way of file.swf?data="mydata" but I know that you can pass data via "flash vars", when you embed the file in html(<object> How do I pass data in that way? Is it better to just read from a text file?
I've been researching for days on the issude but till now I still haven found a solution yet. I have 0 knowledge on ASP. And I just want to able to pass and get var/text from ASP.
ActionScript Code: private function loadASP():void { var aspSend:URLRequest=new URLRequest("testASP.asp"); var aspLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
So I try to send 1.the PDF 2. the message 3. the email-address to a PHP-Script. It works, but somehow my PDF always get garbled and is not a valid document.I transmit my things like:
Code: var emailURLReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest('pdf/email.php'); var emailVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
I have a swf (swf#1) with links to another swf (swf #2). I would like use GET to pass data out of swf #1 to a PHP page that will be holding swf #2. I want swf #2 to start at a specific frame based on the data passed from swf #1.
So I'm trying to make a project with multiple rss feeds on one page. All the rss feeds are in one xml file. this works fine but now I need to retrieve rssdata from each rsslink.
To do that I want a variable to be filled up with the rssData that I retrieve via an external actionscript file.
So in my main actionscript I would have something like this:
ActionScript Code: var rssLoader:RssLoader = new RssLoader; var rssData = /* THIS IS WHERE I WANT MY RSS DATA TO COME */
I'm trying to pass a string of text out to a html web form. Something I've never done before.
Tadster suggested I use something like this:
ActionScript Code: var outDataToJavaScript:XML = <script> <![CDATA[

The movie runs fine and shows no errors, but when my browser opens forms.html the data is not there. I assume this is because I'm using navigateToURL(new URLRequest("form.html) and therefore opening a new instance of form.html rather than the one I've already loaded into flash. Am I right? and if so how do I open the pre-loaded version? Or....am I way off and have failed to understand something quite basic?
A map of the US comes up and users will select where they work, before getting to the next page, which is a form where they fill out the rest of their contact information. The Submit button sends the form variables to a php file on a different server which then stores their info in a database and will take the "location" variable from the map (in the previous .swf) to send the user the correct demo map.
My vars from the form post to the PHP and a confirmation e-mail is sent to the user etc. etc. this works fine...i'm just confused as to how to send the location variable that was pre-selected to send along with the form.
Goal: To build an Internet Mapping Site (IMS) using FlashScenario: Using Manifold GIS for the backend. It is a full scale GIS software which easily outputs data (geometry and tabular) into xml. It has built in IMS capabilities, but theWould like to build an IMS using Flash as the front end, and Manifold as backend. How would I set up something where the GUI and display were Flash, the user interacts with the Flash (Pan, Zoom, Selection, Query(SQL)), have Flash fetch that from Manifold via xml, and display the new extent, query results, etc.?
So there would need to be geometry data retrieval and display as well as tabular. For example the user should be able to use a "Zoom by Extent" feature where they draw a rectangle on the map, it returns the coordinates of the box to Manifold, Manifold returns it, etc. On the other hand they need to be able to query the datasets (simple sql queries).I hope this makes some sense. I'm a noob in many aspects to backend so I'm just trying to get a handle on whether this is possible, and what backend needs to be implemented in order to make this happen? Would you know of a possilble better method? Silverlight, etc?
