ActionScript 3.0 :: Save And Retrieve Input Text Data?
May 15, 2010
I would like to know if it is possible to save data from an input text field to a file on my computer, then retrive the data from that file and load it into a dynamic text field. This application is not and will not be on a website of anysort its an experiment in creating a sorta phone book on my computer. I have created 2 input text fields. the first one is where i would enter a persons name, instance name of "_name", the second input text field is where i would enter a phone number, instnace name of "_phone".
Also there is a button with an instance name of "_save", which hopefully will save the data to a txt file on my computer or something, at this point i am up for anything. what I dream of doing is haveing two projectors one for entering the data, and the other for retrieving the data. The second projector, i would like to beable to type in a name or phone number then it would display, load, retrieve the name and phone number from that file storing the data.

What must be done to allow a user to input information into a flash form, have it permanently saved to a .txt file and then have the data returned to another location within the same flash document?

I'm trying to retrieve an input value from a dynamically created input text fields ("qtyWant_txt"). I want to play that value back into an array ("QtyWant"), which is tied to a form. When the form is submitted, it'll grab the value in the array. My problem is that I'm unable to retrieve the value in the input field prior to passing it to the array.

I've been trying to work on a web portal for updating a website I am creating. I originally duplicated a write-to-.txt php script and duplicated it for each of my pages, but for some reason it isn't working out very well as I assume they are fighting with each other. I am looking into creating what I assume is called an array, so that I can store 5 separate data pieces in one text file but I can't seem to find a tutorial that is close to this. the closest I can find is a guestbook tutorial but it is very out of date. I would like to be able to store multi-line text (so that paragraphs and breaks are preserved) from 5 different input boxes and then retrieve that data upon loading of the input boxes and in a different page which would be the actual content of the website.

I have an input textfield where the user can enter a long string of numbers, seperated by spaces. Example of this is "2 4 10 20". I made the textbox and made sure it only numbers and spaces can be entered. However, I am looking all over google for a way to split these numbers and save them in a different var when a space is encountered. I don't really know how to even start doing this.
saving in vars does not have to happen in runtime, but only when a button is pressed.
is there also a way to prevent the user from entering a space right after another space?

I have created a simple Flash file using actionscript 2 (CS3) that allows a user to enter text into an input text field and then print the results. Now what I want to do is allow the user to save the information they've typed in a file of some sort. I would prefer a .pdf, but I'm not married to that format.

I have an input text field that the user is going to type their name into in a form and then press 'next'.
After they press 'next' I want their name to show up in the next form (which all will be contained in one movie clip on the same html page)

I have a stand alone application that would run without a browser on desktop. I would like to write data to a text or database (MYSQL/PHP). Would it be possible for me to extend this functionality to a AS3 Stand Alone Application which would be strictly running on desktop?

I'm working in AS3 using Flash CS3 in the Mac OSX Leopard environment and would like to save data, to be later retrieved, in text files (probably xml). The data will be the result of the user interaction with the swf and the ideal location will be the directory (local or website) in which the swf file is located.
I know I could achieve the same effect using a database backend but want to make the swf file more portable, and don't really want to dedicate a database to this function. I've read a bundle of website comments on this but none seem to tidily do what I want, and I am not a whole lot wiser on the subject. The data will be user details and variables (e.g. scores) to carryover to when the user next accesses the game. What are my options (FileReference.save, SharedObjects, URLLoader, other )

All I want to do is have an input text box where the users type a number, then Flash to perform a simple calculation and then display the answer on screen. For example; output = input *2 so if the user entered "5" the value displayed on screen would be "10".
I found this tutorial which is exactly what I am trying to do: [URL] but cant get it working correctly for some reason and just gives a "NaN" result (looks like an old version of flash)

I have a string that searches the Twitter API, for keywords, for example :
var url:String = "http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=Robin%20&lang=en&rpp=100";
I also have a input textfield dynamically created:
var inputField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(inputField);
inputField.border = true;
inputField.width = 200;
[Code]....
But how do i take the data from the input text field and add it to the string, keep in mind the input data has to go in the keyword part for the string.

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"
