How can I send multiple variables (images + text) from AS3 to PHP?
In other terms, how to mix these 2 pieces of code:
Code:
var jpgEncoder:JPGEncoder = new JPGEncoder(85);
var jpgStream:ByteArray = jpgEncoder.encode(jpgSource);
var header:URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader("Content-type",

I am sending a complex flashVar sequence where a shell swf gets the URL for a SWF to load via flash vars. The URL for this loaded swf has flashVars appended to it. I need to pass in two flashVars to the loaded swf, but can't get it to work. I think it might have to do with escaping the "&" -- I've tried & but no dice -- in both cases it just ignores the & and everything following it. I can't post sample code as the forum won't let me post what it considers 'links' -- but basically the flash var string passed to the loading swf is something like [code]...
View 1 RepliesI have the livedocs wide open and I still can't figure out how to send off multiple variables in an object (from a class) to the FLA file...[URL] The setup: I have a class that extends EventDispatcher. I created an Object called _pass, public var _pass:Object;. In my last function (everything is cool up until now), I have four variables that need to be passed to the main fla. Let's say they're param1, param2, param3, param4.
It was explained to me that I could use the public var _pass:Object; by first creating an instance of the object like so, _pass = { param1, param2, param3, param4 }; (each param is available in the function). Having setup an object instance, I could then dispatch the object to read from within my fla: dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.COMPLETE));.
But I get these errors:
1084: Syntax error: expecting colon before comma.
1083: Syntax error: rightbrace is unexpected.
As the livedocs show, you can use an associative array (with braces and a colon), but I don't need that. I just need to pass my variables that are pre-made to the FLA.
I'm pretty inexperienced with actionscript, and I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out how to load variables from a file and send it to a dynamic text box. The content of an external file, "varload.txt", is "name1=John". Here is actionscript of my flash file:

For example, if a site has multiple pages in a section, and you want to send them to the next page that has new images and text, how would you do it? Use dynamic text? Movie clips? Or just send them to anoter frame?
View 7 RepliesI'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.

[Code]...
I noticed both work, but which is the right way to do it and will work all the time.
When I open a text document containing 1 string of a Base64 Encoded Image, it works fine:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.utils.ByteArray;
[code]...
The image displays and that's great, but I need to display multiple images; therefore, I used the standard format: var1=value1&var2=value2&... (In reality, the values are the huge base64 strings.) Then I just needed to add "my_loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;" since the format of my source changed. The thing that bugs me is that I'm tracing the imgB64Str after I set it and it traces fine (just like the other version).
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.utils.ByteArray;
[code]...
It runs with no errors, but the image no longer displays.
I have 25 dynamic text fields. If I could, I'd just assign their text by calling the array in the text property var, but that doesn't work.My text field variables are simply B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, I1, I2, I3, I4. . . (I'm populating a bingo card)I'm using 5 Arrays to get the 25 numbers. bArray, iArray. . . and so on.Now, obviously I can fill in my text fields by assigning each variable separately, however, I'd like a shorter solution.Instead of coding B1=bArray[0], B2 =bArray[1] I was looking for a way to assign all the variables in a for loop... or something...
View 7 RepliesI just want to know if there is a way to assign multiple variables, and if there is a way to check multiple variables.
I want to be able to assign variables to false and then check if all the variables are false.
I am at work right now trying to create a power point for our Christmas party. I know I can do so much more with Flash than I can with any other power point program. Right now, I'm trying to figure out a way to load a list of names into one dynamic text field that changes at certain time intervals. I'm using ActionScript 2 right now b/c I haven't learned 3, yet. Is there a way for Flash to access a word document and load a name say, every minute? I know I could add a different variable name in front of each employee name, like content, content1, content2, but I have a list of like 300 names here. That would take up almost as much time as it would creating a slide for each name in Power Point.
View 2 RepliesI have a question regarding ActionScript 3.0 and using buttons to change numeric values in a Flash project. I am trying to create a program that adds and subtracts numbers when buttons are clicked. Here is the code that I have written for the first button that I want to use:
Code:
//Number values//
var withdraw = 0;
Amount_total.text = withdraw;
[Code]....
However the problem I have is that the K200disp text only displays 1,2,5,10,15 etc while the Amount_total text seems to randomly display 200 or lots of 0s!
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]

View 1 Replieshow can i send variables to asp... that's all i want.
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;

Well, 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'] ?>" />

I need to retrieve data from a text file, sort it with a new added score, and then turn the whole data back into a string and save it back into the text file.
I have worked on mini .swf files and php files, and I can seperately:
- retrieve data from a text file to Flash
- do the sorting in Flash from a string coming from a text file
- send a string to a php file and save it on a text file
But I cannot seem to do the three at the same time! Here is my [code]...
I have a simple banner that has three choices. A, B, and C. When a user clicks on one of the choices...I just need a counter to make note of it...in some remote file. Php I would guess.So the end result is that you could access the php file and see that choice A was clicked however many times, and choice B was clicked so many times, etc.But I am not a Php guy and don't know what syntax to use to make this happen.
