View 4 RepliesI need to be able to read an XML file from my flash application. I found this tutorial:
republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/xml/ But it doesn't seem to work even on their own examples. I can trace whole XML file, but when it comes to childNodes whatever I try to trace I always get "undefined". My XML is like a quiz DB with 25 <question>'s and 4 <answer>'s in each. So I need to operate with XML data as with an array.
Can a flash application (SWF) access the serial data on a USB port?

View 2 RepliesI'm exploring the feasibility of reading data from a local Excel file in a Flash application.
XLSX READER [URL], it's possible to read Excel 2007 files.
It works beautifully.
However, that function doesn't read Excel 97-2003 files.
I found this:

Which should read Excel files in Flex, but I'm working on a Flash application, and it looks like as3xls relies on a number of Flex only functions and types (ArrayCollection, NumberFormatter, etc.)
Since I'm not familiar with Flex, I'm having a difficult time making the adjustments myself.
Has anyone built a Flash app that reads Excel 97-2003 files, and is willing to share tips or code?
So I have a basic application descriptor file for my AIR app. It looks something like this, shortened for sanity:

What is the best way to open and parse and excell file from a Flex Application built using Adobe Flash Builder 4.5. I have done tons of research, most lead me to external libraries, I could deal with that if that is the best approach, but prefer a built in method.

View 1 Repliespull some simple text from an external website's RSS feed into a basic text box in a Flash movie. It would need to be in AS2 to fit with the website. The RSS feed is on a PHP page: [URL]
I understand I need to pull the content via an xml / php page under my own domain in order to get around the Flash security, but I still can't scrape together the right code for it to work.
I made this BlogFeed.swf file. Everything works just fine in Flash IDE. It loads the XML, renders it, displays fine and that's it: the world is filled with love and data.
The problem occurs when I try to use my swf online.
Here's the scenario:
SERVER A (Altervista)
hosts the swf file, trying to read the RSS Feed from...
SERVER B (my client's server)
serves the RSS Feed of his blog
[ things I already tryed ]
1) I wrote a crossdomain.xml file (allowing SERVER B domain to access the swf), place it at the same level of the swf file on SERVER A;
2) Set System.security.allowInsecureDomain("*") in the flash file
3) checked on both servers the server-to-server permissions (Altervista lets you do this via its own control panel; the client's server needed me to email the support: did it and they allowed me to connect)
4) moved the swf on ANOTHER server, on which I am completely sure that server-to-server communications are allowed, since I already did something like that.
Nothing changes: always getting the damn HTTPStatus = 0 and no items are shown.
What I really don't understand is why it does work from Flash IDE connecting to SERVER B and it fails (with NO IOError and HTTPStatus = 0, so no debug hints at all...) when I use it in server-to-server mode.

View 3 RepliesI have never looked into RSS feeds before, I now have someone that wants Yahoo rss newsfeed embedded in his main.fla. I have an AS 2.0 rss newsreader he sent to me, knowing nothing about RSS I started to look around and eventually got to a point where I went to a Yahoo RSS feed and copied the source page and dropped it in the xml file that came with the feedreader. When saved, published and uploaded to the server the file displays the feed from yahoo fine, but it never update the stories. I would think this has to do with the xml as it is embedded in the page so it can't change so my question is how do I get an rss feed converted to xml to update???
View 1 RepliesCan you load an RSS Feed onto a web site with only Flash AS3 or do you need something else like flex?
View 1 RepliesI am making a website that needs to read a RSS feed from a blog and then place the information into flash. I have gotten as far as getting the information into flash and viewing it. However I can't get the scrolling functions to work nor do anything else with the feed. The goal is to be able to format the feed in the way that it is online so that it is scrollable but only the most recent post on the feed. Do I have to change how the information is being used in flash to better manipulate it such as xml? Or is is something I've overlooked while using the rss feed code?

View 2 RepliesI'd like to know if you can stream someone's facebook feed in Flash. At the least, it seems you can stream an RSS feed in Flash (I'm not an advanced user, sorry if thats an obvious question), and since Facebook offers an RSS feed for each profile, I'd imagine I could stream that RSS feed.Is there a "standard" way to stream a Facebook feed in a full flash site? Is it possible at all?
