i'm having a problem when php send variable to flash for example ("notlogged") , it's being send like that :
[Code]....
i know i need to convert it to htmlText but i can't find a way to do that
I have a rather simple flash application users can make a quick username when connected, and the username is created inside the flash swf.
Now, I have a cron job deleting inactive usernames every ten minutes (on my mysql database where these usernames are all stored and accessed by the other people online) which is fine. But it can still get cluttered up if a bunch of people sign off at once, there is still that 10 minute window before the cron job clears them.
The users have an option to click log out in the flash application which is fine and works great. But of course many choose not to click log off they just click the browser x.
I've looked into onbeforeunload and jquery's .unload but I still need a way to get the username variable that's IN flash INTO the HTML, then use a php script to run the delete username mysql query.
If not, any insight on how I might pass the username variable to the html to hold onto it after the user makes their username so it can be involved with the .unload function running the php script?
EDIT::::: Maybe is there a way to create a UNIQUE string of numbers with php then pass that var to flash to include with the mysql row then since i already have that var since it was created on the html side, just along with the unload, have it delete the row that has that unique id?
If anyone things this idea would be the best approach, and if i used something like md5(uniqid(microtime()) . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']) to make a random iD how could i go about storing the result in a var i could place in the flash vars param then again in the jquery unload or javascript onbeforeunload if that would be better .
How can I with the html-code include a variable that you can take out in flash?
PHP Code:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash
[Code]....
Also, just a little variable. (xmlfile=text.xml) (I want to have the same swf-file but use it in several html-files (and I have one xml-file to every html-file))
I was trying to send 4 paragraphs to a .swf element. I have no idea how to what to do. I tried using FlashVars but I feel like i need to drop in some actionscript to be able to work with the vars conceptsNdisciplinesPar=(some text)&cultures&countriesPar=(some text) etc... Is there an easy way to get access to this text in my .swf?
View 2 RepliesI know this is pretty simple but all that I have read doesn't make much sense to me. I have one swf calling another swf that I have embedded into an htnl. In other words just calling another html page in a seperate window. In one.swf (runing in broswer) I use the below to call another html page passing the variable NewLessonArray. This contains an array of completed chapters.
[Code]...
All that is returned that I can see is object Object. But since I am passing on a address line into another swf embedded in a html page I am unable to determine that correct syntac for retrieving the information.
An AIR application that load an html page which contain some forms. I want to pass values from flash to html and then submit data. Don't suggest other possible variants, i have experience using URLLoader, amfphp, blazeds e.t.c. Idea it's to pass that from flash to html form, and then submit that information to server using html page. How can be do that? Or maybe in an web application (not desktop)?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to send a variable from an HTML into Flash in order to modify it based on the value. I generally know how FlashVars works in AS3, so I did some quick reading for AS2 and made a test swf.
[URL]
In my swf, the first frame only has this code:
Code:
if (_root.tester == undefined) {
var passed:String = "Nothing Passed";
} else {
var passed:String = _root.tester;
}
texty.text = passed;
According to what I've read and what my code is, this should work. It should read the value of video as the value of _root.tester (check the HTML code), yet it's always listed as undefined.
I've been trying - with absolutely no success - to pass a variable from an SWF on an index page to an SWF on the next page (in this case home.asp). I am using the following method:
In the index page when a menu button is clicked I pass the value in the string
[AS]getURL("home.asp?jumpTo=aboutus", "_top", "GET");[/AS]
Then on home.asp I drop the value into the SWF link (both the object and embed tags):
myswf.swf?jumpTo=<%=request.querystring("jumpTo")% >
In the SWF I then attempt to use the value of "jumpTo" like this:
(this is on the first frame of the SWF)
[AS]if(jumpTo==aboutus) {
_root.button4.gotoAndStop(10);
_root.header.attachMovie("aboutID", "attachedAbout", 1);
getURL ("aboutus.html", "site");
}
There are 11 possible values for "jumpTo" and I have a similar "if" statement written for each one. i know the value is being passed from the original SWF to home.asp because when I request the querystring it gives me the correct value. it's obvious that the SWF embedded in home.asp is not receiving the value. Do I need to declare the variable first? Should I use a global variable? is it possible to set up a dynamic variable in the flash movie?
I use an swf file to play short flv files on a web page. I write the embed/object tags into a dynamic web page using php and understand how to pass the relevent parameters to the swf file. As a complete flash scripting dummy, I don't know how to get the variable into the flash script or how to use it once it is there. At the moment I create a new swf file for each movie I want to display and write the file name into the script as below. how to get the file name into the script below using FlashVars or a query string in the html.
// Create a NetConnection object
var netConn:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
// Create a local streaming connection

i have a flash file created in AS3, let's call it file1.swf it contains a variable.. we will call this testVariable file1.swf is embedded inside file1.html file1.swf reaches a point where it needs to load a new swf file that we will call file2.swf file2.swf is done in AS2. file1.swf simply calls file2.swf by calling a new HTML file that embeds file2.swf
So file1.swf calls
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("file2.html");
navigateToURL(targetURL, "_self");
I need file2.swf to have access to testVariable.

I have to dynamic text boxes; one is for articles and the other is supposed to bu for navigation of the articles. I have a variable set up for the article dynamic text box and I want the navigation part to be filled in via text file. so I need to find a way for the information that's fed in to the navigation part to functions as buttons and when they are clicked a variable should pass though flash telling is what story to display. for instance if you click stereohype then storyvar == stereohype. see what I mean? I could do it all in flash but i'm trying to make it where I don't have to touch the flash file after it's completed and everything can just be manipulated via text files with html php xml you name it, what ever works.
View 1 RepliesI would like to make an input text field in flash as2. What I need is when the user write down an answer it will direct him to an html page I created. There are 3 answers and 3 pages, so they will write down one of the answer and when they will click "enter" they will be redirected. I understand you can do it with "if" statement but I don't know how!
View 1 RepliesI have a html/flash site now, [URL]. i access email from my site itself by giving the userid and pwd text box which i copied from the actual website hosting my email access. i copied the entire <form...></form> tag to my page and thus was able to put the name and pwd in my home page only and access the email in a separate window. now i have redesigned my webpage using only flash. i would like to know how i can implement the same using flash. as i have not much experience using action scripting i am a bit stuck about how you pass the hidden form variables. the below is the the exact form syntax:

I have a task to upgrade a web site. I have a map of ND with some cities on it. I needed to add a new city to the SWF which did not seem to be hard (asuming I did it correct). The action on all the buttons for each city look like this except the name after the # is the city selected.
on (release){ getURL("locations_info.html#minot", "location_content");}
In HTML code snip that controls this looked like this :

View 1 RepliesHi, i'm working on a project where i have some major functions on the page working in over a flash file, and i was wondering if there was a way to interact with the html page, based on actions made in the flash file, without having to use ajax or something like that.
I want the flash file to send some kind of data to the html page, much like a javascript, WITHOUT having to reload the page or submit it like a form action.
How to parse data from a html form page in to flash, like : text, fontsize, font color, image .
View 0 RepliesBasically I am trying to send a variable from flash to php, I was trying to do it through the sendToURL function, because this seemed to be the most appropriate way to do this, although I may be wrong. Below is the AS.
var quizVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
quizVariables.party = "labour";
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(".../partyhandler.php");
myURLRequest.data = quizVariables;
sendToURL(myURLRequest);
Once this is done it should cause the following PHP to run (which works fine if I manually type in the address eg .../partyhandler.php?party=labour)
$party = $_GET['party'];
mysql_query("UPDATE party SET $party = $party+1 WHERE id=1");echo $party;
however something seems to not be working with the flash element of the code.
