ActionScript 3.0 :: Refresh The Php Scoreboard?
Dec 3, 2010
I have a scoreboard in flash which works great, but once go back onto the scores page at the end of the game it adds the text to each field again rather than refreshing the scores/names, therefore each item appears twice in each box..
Is there a correct way to dynamically update the scores each time I access the page ? I've tried creating a loop that sets the value of each text_box.text to ""; once I leave the page but that didn't work !!

I had an issue with my index.html testing on IE and the preloader just stalls on "loading 0%". he told me that locally the progress event doesn't have time to load and to try uploading it to your server and see if it works. It worked just fine. Rah Rah Kglad.
So today I'm fine tuning the swf/ fla to clean it up. Reduced some picture sizes and deleted unused files and reduced the swf from 4000 KB to 350 KB Rah Rah Gene. replaced the swf in Dreamweaver and re-uploaded with Filezilla. Rah ah Filezilla.
Everything working great and my preload went from 23 seconds to less than 3. So I'm real happy except for one small issue. Firefox and IE both do this. If I hit the refresh button, it stalls on "loading 0%" once again just like it did locally.
If I hit the refresh several times it WILL refresh randomly....2 times refresh......10 times refresh etc.

Spoke to my hosting company who said everything seems fine on the server. BTW he said Chrome did NOT have this issue Rah Rah Chrome.

I'm building a dynamic scoreboard for a client currently. The first application will be a golf leaderboard. It needs to be updateable by the client (I'll write a form that fills in the xml file from the users input)I need to have a xml file that defines..-number of columns/rows-titles-content in each boxand then the flash that takes that and generates a table from it.Is there any tutorials or source files floating around that do this? There's plenty that talk about in-game scoreboards, but we need to have all the data input from an external file.

I need to create a scoreboard for my game. I want to be able to let my user submit the time it took to complete the game to my scoreboard. I have been able to purchase webspace with SQL, PHP. I have set up my SQL database. I have found a great tutorial about how to do precisely what I wanted on YouTube BUT after starting the tutorial I realised it was ActionScript 2, I REALLY need time type of tutorial but for ACTIONSCRIPT.

I'm trying to make a scoreboard of players.It works fine for strings (like the username) listing like:
User1
User2
User3
etc
using in PHP to seperate them. (Using Flash,PHP,MySQL Integration)This is how I get them from the db in PHP:
PHP Code:
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $rankPos .= $nrow . "
"; //# Position $rankUser .= $row['user'] . "
"; //Username obviously $rankN .= $row[$rankBy] . "
[code]...
The problem with this is, when flash receives rankings such as time, they are seperated by newlines () which makes them strings instead of integers as they rightly should be.
I'm using a time to string function to convert the time as integer (getTimer()) to a format HH:MM:SS It's fine ranking the times in the getTimer format but it all becomes a mess when trying to display the string format instead. (Considering times for all players are linked in the same string passed by PHP as time
time
time
time (000000
[code]...
The reason they are split with newlines is because the rankings are displayed in a single dynamic text.I tried converting each time in flash using the int function, but what would you do for newlines? The time rankings just comes out as '0' because of the newlines.I've also tried using this following function to remove the newlines and then possibly put each time into an array.
Actionscript Code:
function time(input){ timestr = ""; for(i=0; i<input.length; i++){ if(input.charAt(i) != " "){ timestr += input.charAt(i);} } return timestr;}
[code]...
What would I check for in order to get each time into an array?Though I'd much prefer using a much more efficient and easy method for display high scores.

Basically I've set up a scoreboard for a flash game I've made for a client. Now the scoreboard works fine but apparently it's not very secure. One of the clients friends was able to add a score of 100,000 without even playing the game. This is quite a big problem as they are planning on doing a competition with prizes for the highest scores.
What's the normal way to encrypt data on a scoreboard? The scores are stored in a MySQL database btw.

I am making a scoreboard. On this scoreboard I will have 10 different scores. I want to compare the 10 scores and list the top 3 scores in another location. I was thinking at first
if(score1>score2&&score1>score3&&score1>score4 etc.....){
some function
}
But this will only give me the top score in the group. I would like to find the top 3 scores, and then list them.

I also want another fla file to be able to reference this external array and pull the top 15 scores from it, and then display those scores on a scrolling banner. I want the banner to be able to update dynamically (I assume reloading the banner fla each time it reaches the end of its cycle, having the first frame load the external array on an onClipEvent action would accomplish this), that way it will update while remaining open. The main reason I need two separate files for the quiz and the score banner is they will be displayed on two different monitors. What would be the most efficient way of accomplishing this? I know a little about actionscript but I don't have much experience with calling data and functions from external fla or as files (the array and the function designating how the data will be arranged within said array are going to be in a separate .as file).

I need to make a scoreboard/timer that would show on a projector so that everyone can see the current points and the 8 second timer, all this controlled for a non-flash-user, considering someone else will have to do it cause I'm IN the gameshow, so it has to be easily-changable.
[[[I'd also like to mention I apparently heard that this could somehow be done sending information between flash and excel? The image attached is what it'd look like. Each peice is a graphic object in flash.

I need this for a simple iPhone app...I was trying to create a Scoreboard for my iPhone using Flash CS5 in Air for iOS mode. I succesfully add the Timer and the 24-seconds Timer, but now i need soooo much help. Problems: 1. When the Timer reaches 0 mins, it display only :59, not 00:59 2. I tried to add a Button for the Counter of the points, but it seems very complicated in AS3(not in AS2 :/). I created a TLF Read Only Text named "HomeScore" . But it's a String not a Number so i can't add a simple counter. 4. with the Reset button (for Timer & 24-Seconds) and the Start/Stop buttons (for Timer & 24). My code:import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I am making my very first AS3 game, and though it's quite simple I'm having trouble setting up a scoring system. The concept of the game is simple. Objects appear on the screen, clicking the objects adds points. For this project I am working with 3 AS files, a Document class and two movieclip class files. I would also like to track how many objects have been added to the stage in addition to the score which should track how many objects have been clicked. Here is my Doc Class

i'm working on a project that uses php and xml to link my database information with flash. I've successfully allowed flash to read the xml contents. I need to randomise the data i retrieved from the database, so my xml content will change everytime i refresh the browser. However, i realised that the flash content didn't change like the xml content. The script to read the xml is written on the 1st frame of my 1st scene. Is there a way to read the xml again everytime i refresh the browser or re-enter the scene?

Absolutely, I am not a professional, so sorry if the question is silly.
I have the script:
for (var i:Number = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
mov1.nextFrame()
}
The result is that I see the initial frame of the animation mov1 and frame 5. I do not see frames that are played during the loop. I need a refreshing function for frame or movie clip mov1, which could be placed in the loop . Alternatively, a function of pausing the action script to a vertical refres (vsync).

I am using a Tab Navigator component in which there are three canvas components. When I click one of the canvas (or tab), a Pie Chart is displayed. Actually what happens is that on-click
1. the canvas sends an HTTPService whose url is set to a php file
2. That php file actually gets information from a database. Based on that information an xml file is created
3. Fusion Chart uses that xml file to display a pie chart
The database is being updated after some time. Is there any way the Pie Chart may get updated after every 3 minutes to reflect the modifications in the database? or
Can I send the particular HTTPService again and again after every 3 minutes 'in background'? or
Is there any good way to update the information in a particular canvas (or tab) of Tab Navigator?
