View 4 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.
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 would like flash to send and receive data from mysql.
To send data I would like to create 5 input fields, and then use a submit button.
Then to retrieve the data I would like to use the data grid or a dynamic text field.
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.

i just don't know how to to send and receive and how to receive from the server
i 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'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 would like my flash to act differently depending on what html page it is on. Can I send information from html code to action script?

View 4 RepliesI am having issues getting Flash to connect to a SQL 2000 Database. I keep getting an error with flash.data.*.The code is :
import flash.data.*
I receive the following error:
1172: Definition flash.data could not be found.
I am having newbie problems with sockets. Flash sends data to my php server script fine, and my telnet client(s) all get updated. When I make an entry into a telnet client, all of the other clients update immediately as expected. In Flash however, the only time I receive data is when I press a key within flash.
Example: Press 'a' within Flash, flash traces a, telnet outputs a Press b in telnet, telnet outputs b, nothing within flash Press c in Flash, flash traces b, c, telnet traces c

I guess this is more of an issue of how to set up Flash to listen for events on the socket
So, I have learned how to actually send data from Flash, but how do I in ActionScript send data every 3 second?

I have a flash form that sends a monthly report that users fill out to a php file, which sends it to a MS SQL database. This issue I am having is that anything larger then 1300 characters entered into the flash form will not work at all. If I reduce the amount of text to 1300 characters or less, it will send it to the php and database just fine. My research shows that a flash variable should be able to handle 65,000 characters, and when I trace my output from flash to php, all of the data is being traced. however, it is not being send to php. I am using LoadVars to send the data with _GET. So is this a php issue, or a flash issue? I ran a php info page and my max_post is set to 10M that should be enough to handle this load. I am not sure why it is not working with anything larger then 1300 characters. Below is my code for my php and flash files.
The variables that are affected by this are the testEvlauation, projects, support, and programManagement variables. I need them to send at least 8000 characters a peice to the php file.
Flash Code:
on (release) {
sendData = new LoadVars();
sendData.contractor = contractor.text;
sendData.name = name.text;

I have a site with an SWF that I can put some metrics into, such as ZIP Code, Weight, etc.. then, it takes that info and gives me shipping rates.
I need to build a front-end site that I can have a forms page that will push data to the backend SWF, and then return the data back from the SWF to the front end.
Front-end -> SWF (Zip Code, Weight, Size) -> *Calculates* -> Front-End
That should be the flow.. So I need to send data to the backend, GET the data that it calculated, and return the results to my front-end.
I currently have a Flash app that gets populated by parsing data from an external XML file. However, I need to get the XML data into a (JSP) session and can't neccesarily have an external XML file--any suggestions? Can I put the XML string into a hidden input field in a form on the HTML? Can Flash communicate with that HTML? Or are one of the below methods recommended:
* FlashVars
* Flash Remoting
* Web services
* JavaScript - call JS function
* fscommand
* ExternalInterface
I have a flash form (widget) on a website that the user can enter details (or select them from drop down menus).
There is then a submit button at the bottom.
This is quite primitive, and as far as my flash allows me. The bit I am stuck with is that I need to send the data then to a .PHP file that will then forward this to the correct people (this bit is already done for me).
sending this information (e.g. Phone Number, Country, Language etc) to the .PHP file.
I am using flash 8 and actionscript 2 I have created an array in flash to send to php using getURL and POST. i.e.

Hi, i'm working on a project where i have some major functions on the page working in over a flash file, and i was wondering if there was a way to interact with the html page, based on actions made in the flash file, without having to use ajax or something like that.
I want the flash file to send some kind of data to the html page, much like a javascript, WITHOUT having to reload the page or submit it like a form action.
I've got a piece of JavaScript code in an HTML file which detects the height and width of the browser. What I'd like to do is pass the height and width values to Flash. I've followed the Adobe documentation for this using the ExternalInterface class but can't get it to work. For some reason the sendDataToFlash(); function in my JS isn't being called. [code]...
