View 8 RepliesI need to create an action script function so that when a mc is pressed, it sends a variable that is in it (letter_rdm)to a dynamic text field at the bottom. Heres my code:

tmp.width = 100;

What is the difference between both:
Below one is working

var arrVertrek = ["select the city",arrCity25000[0],arr26000[0],arr26220[0]];
Below one is not working, but as I need this kind of solution with variable =

I am trying to complete a project (not school work).This is the point that i am at, and i probably need specific spoon feeding as i am obviously missing a piece.code in frame one of flash:

I am not sure how to code this as pairs and like i said the only ones i need to be transferred are the substance and sum.
I have a dynamic text field in flash that is populated by an input box. The dynamic text field has a maxmium width it can be. So i have it as multiline WITH wodrwap on. My problem is that I have to send this data to server and for the php to be able to text the text and output the text as it is displayed in flash. There seems to be no way of finding the linebreaks and passing them in the string as far as I can see?
View 16 RepliesOn my stage I have a dynamic text field (instance name = lives).
In my actionscript I have created a number variable called livesnum. And then beneath that I'm setting the textfields value to be the livesnum variable but I get the following error:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String.
My actionscript is as follows :
var livesnum:Number = 4; //Amount of lives
lives.text = livesnum;
How would I achieve setting the textfield as the numeric value of the variable?
I am creating a flash website with as storefinder.. There is an input text field in flash and a search button which when pressed will load a javascript function that uses the input text var.
i can call the function using this method - getURL("javascriptpenMap()", "", "POST");
but how can i pass it the variable from my input text field?
I'm having a problem getting my data from input text fields to pass to the ASP script using getURL and "POST". The input fields have var of email and password. The form works fine when an html form passes the same variables.

ActionScript Code:
on(press){
//loadVariablesNum("samplescript.asp",0,"post");
getURL("samplescript.asp",0,"post");

where to look to pass the variables from the input text fields?

So I'm building a little contact form in flash and it works, but it is passing along all of the font styling information into the email sent to the client. Kind of annoying. I want it just to send the plain text.
Here's what I'm using:
This code is in the actionscript, picking up the input text fields and posting them to the PHP file. It also tells a status box to update with current info:
Code:
loadVariables("send_email.php?flashmo=" + random(1000), this, "POST");
message_status.text = "sending...";
var i = 0;

The following code, when attached to the MC panTracker_mc works as desired, passing the value of the dynamic text field with a VARIABLE name of s1Pan to s1 sound object, thus controlling the pan.
Code:

s1Pan = Math.round(_root._xmouse/2.5)-100;
_root.s1.setPan(s1Pan);

I've had a site running for a few months that takes fourinput text boxes (name, e-mail, subject and message) and posts thevalues to an ASP page which composes an e-mail with a CDO.Messagecommand. For some reason (nothing has been changed in the files or onthe server), it stopped working and I've traced it down to Flashpassing Input Text Box Formatting information along WITH theariable.Can anyone explain what's happened and how to correct it?For example, in my form I've set all the name, e-mail andmessage to static text and let the Subject variable be passed andin the e-mail subject line, I get this:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P
ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><FONT FACE="American Typewriter" SIZE="12"
COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0"

i'm pulling my hair over this. i have sucessfully (verified) loaded an xml file and can trace the data i'd like to pass. i am loading the external swf into an empty mc called X. in the external swf i am loading is a mc and in there is a dynamic textfield. i give the content of the xml to the path to the dynamic textfield and nothing happens. trying to pass the variable with: target.text = content;
i listed the variables and objects in the test movie debug option (command+enter) and i can see the dynamic text box variable. then i took copied the path from the output window to my actionscript, replaced _level0 with _root but still to no avail. what am i doing wrong? do i have to publish the swf being loaded in a certain way? why am i able to look at the variables in the debug list variables and objects option, but not in the actionscript?
I am trying to pass information to a many dynamic text fields when rolling over various movieclips that are generated using a loop. I have tried everything I know but can not get pahting to work prpoerly. The rollover works in that the curser changes by does not execute the lines of code within the in line function.(see red, bolded text (towards bottom) for problem). the Attached zipped swf is what it looks like as is.
Code:
//how many floors are there in the building?

1) Passing a control itself as parameter into a function 2) Passing an id ( managed manually) of the control as a parameter into a function . Say for an array of controls I have ctrl_Array = [ my_btn, my_mc, my_dtg ] and corresponding id_Array[0,1,2] PS: If my question is difficult to understand, i just wanna know, if it is a good programming practice to pass control references among the classes as function parameters ?

Creating a flash project where users can visit the site, and turn off/on objects in a house (ie. lights, tv, computer, etc.) The next user who will visit the house in the website, will see what lights or house appliances were left on. Flash variables are passed to PHP, and those variables are saved in an XML file. (For testing to see what is being saved to the XML file, on each click --vars.xml opens.) In the vars.xml file, I see that the house objects that were last turned on--are saved in the XML file- But in the SWF file, only one of the objects that are listed in the XML are turned ON. Only the last object that was clicked on would show ON--not all the objects in the XML file.)
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;

I'm trying to pass the file name of an image upload PHP script into Flash's UILoader component. So when a user uploads their image, the file name of the file is passed to flash so that the image displays within the Flash UILoader application. Here's the PHP variable I'm trying to pass: $filename= ''; And here's where Flash's UILoader gets it's source (ActionScript 3.0): uiLoader.source = "freshly uploaded file.jpg ($filename)?";
View 1 RepliesIs there a way that I can pass the value of app: or appstorage: to a javascript file which has been included via URLRequest? I have a web application with an HTML5 video player, and I've been asked to get it to work as an AIR app. So far so good, except that there is a bug in jPlayer that requires you to use absolute file paths for media if you're using flash fallback. I need to get the file path of the app: or appstorage: directory on a users machine, and pass that to javascript so that the player can find my videos.

I have to pass some variables to the flash movie (movie.swf?var1=aaa&var2=bbb). never had a problem with using them before.I've read around a lot an tried different coding, but when I export the swf I got the error, that root is unknown...doesn't matter, if I use one of this
var flashvars:Object = root.loaderInfo.parameters;
var flashvars:Object = stage.loaderInfo.parameters; // stage is unknown here..
var flashvars:Object = MovieClip(root).loaderInfo.parameters;
var flashvars:Object = MovieClip(root.loaderInfo).parameters;

So, I read the tutorial about passing variables by changing the url of the .swf with the following code:
Code:
if (movie==1 or movie=="") {
trace("default");
}
[Code]....
My question is, is there anything special if I want it to respond to the url of a .php page? So, if I have a page that ends in "?page_id=2" could I do the same thing or does it have to be an .swf?
Code:
if (page_id==1 or page_id=="") {
trace("default");
}

i have 1 PHP page in which i have a Flash animation. this flash swf file, display 2 fields and 1 button.
this php page is called "test.php".
i'm able to send data from Flash to a PHP page, but i would like to send the content of those 2 fields to the "test.php" and display them. however, i do not know how to do it.
i see that it works but i'm not able to display or refresh the PHp page to display the result.
as walkaround i was thinking to collect the webpage address where is executed the flash and to send it to another PHP page. and this 2nd PHP page, will reload the test.php with parameters...
how to get under flash, the address of the actual executed php page ?
