I am using as3 for some time now, but i have never tried to communicate with a server. I have to send some values to a server and also receive some values using HTTPS.I found some stuff about HTTP, i havn't tried them yet. I hope this is not too difficult because it has to be figured out by Monday.
View 0 Repliesi am using flash cs5 with AS3 along with PHP 5, i am calling a https page and sending post data to it and retreiving the response, its working fine inside action script (FLASH CS5 IDE) but when i am embedded flash in html to use it from my web server (WAMP) then it is unable to send and receive data from https url.
i have turned on the mod_ssl module from php.ini for both php and apache.
but still there is no gain. can you advice me any method to control this thing with in action script 3, (i tried php curl but not useful) or the right way to do it, i want to post and receive data from https url from action script or php.
I know you can send all the variables using: url...Is there a way to do this but only send the variables I want to? Say I only wanted to send "user" and "pass" but not "content".
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to create a file that shows data from a database depending on an id number the user inputs in Flash. I am having trouble sending to PHP the id so it sends back the appropriate data from the db.
This is the AS3 code that tries to send the value of the idNumber to PHP[code]...
I have a working code that connects to my server using URLRequest. Now I m trying to make the server work with SSL. When I try to change the address in AS3 to https, i get: Error #2032: Stream Error. URL
I've googled it and found out this is a sendbox issue. I have two questions: 1. I m trying this from Flash CS3 studio. Should that ignore the sendbox restrictions? 2. When I will try this from a swf running in a browser, I can I fix this? using crossdomain.xml?
I would like to send information to a php script that queries a database.
eg
send two strings clientName and userName to php
PHP queries the mysql database and returns the result.
How would I us URLVariables or URLLoader? or is it something entirely different.

View 1 RepliesCalling ActionScript 3 function from C#
i have a project which is is a desktop application in .Net, and from .Net 3 String value is Passed to Flash. My question is how to receive data coming from the desktop application in flash as3? because here i don't have any URL to load data.
I'm trying to send and receive data to/from flash and php, but I can't receive any data from php. I'm running this locally and the path is correct.
From PHP
Code:
<?php
require( "../weeklybread.php" );
$query = mysql_query( "SELECT * FROM $table" );
while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array( $query )) {
$message = ($myrow['message']);
[Code] .....
myVars.sendAndLoad("[URL]", myVars_received, "POST");
So I can't see anything inside the text field, I can't even trace it.. it says undefined in 20px caps.
Ok so I can send and receive XML nodes from the socket server I need to know how to take the nodes and the values within them.... like for example I want the X Y positions from the node sent to me from the server "<playerpos name="javageek1212" X="34" Y="23" />" Basically I want the values from within that node ok?
View 5 RepliesAny example of a telnet/chat or other console like FLEX application where you can use the same TextArea as input/ouput area. I've been trying to modify the app at: [URL] but so far, computer says no. All the implementations I've seen use a combination of TextInput and TextArea.
The challenge is that we'll be using this app to telnet into some old routers and we'll need to do a fair amount of copy/pasting. Based on what I've seen, it seems that I would need to point the mouse into the TextInput in order to be able to right click and paste, which is not very sleak.....
I am attempting to connect to a python twisted socket server with Flash using XMLSocket. The connect works fine, and so does the receive. However I can't send data to the server. Is there a specific format I should be using? The reason I ask is because I couldn't read any data with the XMLSocket until the data was in the form "something", that is, the data string had to be valid xml followed by the null character. Is there a trick to sending data?
I don't think this a cross site security problem, because if it was, I believe I wouldn't be able to connect or receive. I am able to connect to the server using telnet and a java client without issues. EDIT: I figured it out, the problem was my server needed to have the data sent to it end with"
I have made a game that sends and recevies data from an online leaderboard. It uses PHP and mySQL, and all works fine when running the .swf off my computer. The problem is, when the game is uploaded and running online, it fails to both receive and send the data to the leaderboard. I don't know why! When I first ran the game offline, a security box appeared that told me I had to allow it to access the server. So, I'm thinking it might be a security problem. Is there a similar security setting that I have to enable on the server somewhere? Or some code I can put to the game to override it? Note that everything is on the same server at the moment so I dont need any of that CrossDomain stuff, I think.

View 2 Repliesi want to make a simple chat with flex as3 and red5 media server
my idea is that i send from the swf a message to the server and the server sends it to all the swfs (including the one that sent the message)
i just don't know how to to send and receive and how to receive from the server
I'm writing a Comet-like app using Flex on the client and my own hand-written server.
I need to be able to send short bursts of data from the client at quite a high frequency (e.g. of the order of 10ms between sends).
I also need the server to push short bursts of data at a similarly high frequency.
I'm using NetConnection.call() to send the data to the server, and URLStream (with chunked encoding) to push the data from the server to the client.
What I've found is that the data isn't being sent/received as soon as it's available. For example, in IE, it seems the data is sent every 200ms rather than as soon as NetConnection.call() is called. Similarly, URLStream isn't making the data available as soon as the server is sending it.
Judging by the difference in behaviour between the browsers, it seems as though the Flash Player (version 10) is relying on the host browser to do all the comms. Can anyone confirm this? Update: This is very likely as only the host browser would know about the proxy settings that might be set.
I've tried using the Socket class and there's no problem with speed there: it works perfectly. However, I'd like to be able to use HTTP-based (port 80) connections so that my app can run in heavily fire-walled environments (I tried using a Socket over port 80, but that has its problems).
Incidentally, all development/testing has been done on an internal LAN, so bandwidth/latency is not an issue.
Update: The data being sent/received is in small packets and doesn't need to be in any particular format. For example, I might need to send a short array of Numbers, and this could either be encoded in AMF (e.g. via NetConnection.call()) or could be put into GET parameters (e.g. using sendToURL()). The main point of my question is really to see whether anyone else has experienced the same problem in calling NetConnection/URLStream frequently, and whether there is a workaround (it's also possible that the fault lies with my server code of course, rather than Flash).
I'm looking to send a list of variables (say 6 in total) from php to flash and for flash to pick a random one and send it back to php when clicking a button.
I would like it to appear in a dynamic text box. That randomly selected variable needs to be sent back to php on pressing a button.

Not client side.

Does anyone know how to send variables from actionscript to php?
View 11 RepliesI desperately need to send variables from AS3 to PHP. I have been searching and trying for days to work it out but nothing seems to work. I have a swf which will be used for quotes, each part asks things like size, colour and other options. It has a summary part at the end that shows everything that has been added. I want to send these variables with there values to a PHP page to send an email. I can work out the PHP bit and I have tried several things to get the variables sent to the PHP but nothing seems to work. I want to send the variables to php when the submit button is clicked, it goes to the test PHP page which should then print the variables but it is blank.
Here is the code I have at the moment:
ActionScript Code:
btnSubmit1.addEventListener(
MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,
function(evt:MouseEvent):void {
PHPSendData()
var myData:URLRequest = new URLRequest("test.php")
try {
navigateToURL(myData, "_self")
} catch (e:Error) {
[Code] .....
I'm new to AS3 so not too sure about anything but I'm not even sure if I need the loader bit or the function doComplete but I have tried it with and without and it doesn't make a difference.
Im trying to make an swf send a phone-number to a specific asp-fil on the press of a button.But since I'm an as3 rookie I have no idea where this code is going wrong (PLEASE HELP):[code]

this is what i have...getURL("webform1.aspx?id=1&status=I",0, "GET");

I have written the following to call in a text file via php and evaluate the contents for duplicates. If there are dupes, it identifies and removes them and resaves as a new array to send back and overwrite the current php. It identifies the dupes perfectly and assembles the new array as well. Unfortunately, it's not sending the new contents (myLV) to the php in my sendAndLoad.
I suspect that part of my problem is that it's all encased in the onLoad function which is embedded in another function, but I cannot get the initial variables to load from the php any other way.
Here's my AS:
function upDate() {
var playerData:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
playerData.onLoad = function() {
var currentNames:String = this.blog;

View 4 RepliesWell, I made a login page with flash and php. So I was wondering how can I make it so that I can send variables to another frame.
Like I have a button, when you press it, it connects to the database, and it checks your login. Then it gets all the variables. So how can I get the variables for every page on my flash project?
The only way I can think of now, is setting a dynamic text to the variable..
Just a quick question. I transfer one variable from php to as3 using
<param name="FlashVars" value="myVar=<?php echo $_POST['name'] ?>" />
How can I send two seperate variables? I know I can use & in the middle of that code, and pass another value, but this will place both values into the variable myVar. Can I just do a new one underneath like
<param name="FlashVars" value="myVar=<?php echo $_POST['name'] ?>" />
<param name="FlashVars" value="myVar1=<?php echo $_POST['pass'] ?>" />
