ActionScript 3.0 :: SentToURL Without Data Or Variables?

Aug 18, 2011

I'm working on an interactive quiz where the user's responses will be incremented to a poll in a CMS. I have a url that automatically increments the answer choice in a poll, so I would like to use sendToURL to call the url without actually passing any data or variables. It seems to work with navigateToURL, but that opens a blank window in the browser (a complete nuisance every time you answer a quiz question).

Here is the navigateToURL code that increments the poll successfull, but opens the unwanted browser window

var url:String = "URL GOES HERE";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
try {
navigateToURL(request);

[Code].....

I tried replacing "navigateToURL" in the first option to sendToURL and it wasn't incrementing the poll.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Data From Different Variables - The New Variables Come Back As Undefined?

Jun 15, 2010

I'm writing code that takes data from mysql that's processed by a PHP script. It's actually a bit bizarre, at least to me. Anyway, here's some basic AS3 code that's moving toward what I want to do:

var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var urlRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("receive.php");
urlRequest.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;[code]....

For some reason, the statement "trace(evt.target.data);" produces a whole pile of garbled text before the actual stuff that it's supposed to show Because of problem #1, I've had to include a throwaway variable at the beginning, otherwise the first variable I try to pass into AS3 comes back as undefined. This causes errors when I run my flash movie in the IDE, but when I run it from the browser it doesn't seem to have any effect.But this is the strangest thing of all whenever I make any changes to the database (and subsequently try to load data from different variables), the new variables come back as undefined. For example, let's say that I add another entry to the database, and decide to load students 2, 3, and 4 instead of 1, 2, and 3. When I do that, any new data I've added comes back as undefined, even though when I view the PHP output in my browser, it looks just fine.

And now for the REALLY bizarre part: I'll copy that output, paste it into my PHP script as an echo statement, comment everything else out, and my flash movie runs fine. Even though the output from the PHP script is exactly the same, it gives me errors.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Refresh Variables With New Data?

Sep 19, 2010

I am tying to find a way to refresh variables with new data. I am using PHP and MySQL to randomly assign new data to a variable when the script is called. This new data is passed to Flash as in a variable using these functions:

varReceiver = new LoadVars();
varReceiver.load("iat_config.php");
varReceiver.onLoad = function(success){

[code]....

So my problem is that every time I call my movie to go to this frame that contains this actionscript, it does not provide me with new variables. Another important variable I need to change every time the frame occurs is startTime = getTimer(); However, the variable startTime will stay they same and not change when the frame is recalled.

I am working on the contact form for a website that is done entirely in flash. The following is the code I have for sending the variables to the emailForm.php script that I created.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Retrieving XML Data With Variables

Nov 9, 2009

I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I'm looking to retrieve a string from an embedded XML file, using a variable as the XML element's name. Here's what my code currently looks like, although it doesn't quite work:

Code:
private final function getAreaTitle(_index:int):String
{
var _element:String = map_XML.mapnode.@title[_index];

[Code]....

I'm not massively familiar with the XML format, so apologies if I've not explained myself very well. As you can hopefully see, I have one XML file containing my map data and another containing my text, such as area titles and locations. What I'm trying to retrieve in the example above is the string with the label "title_training" from the "text_XML" file. Of course, the function should be able to return the title for any area, so I need to find a way of converting "_element" in to the right format

Set Variables In MXML While Avoiding Data Binding?

Jun 2, 2011

I love MXML but am starting to notice some of its drawbacks. The main one I'm struggling with is its larger memory usage due to the need for binding. In the super simple code snippet below, which I've tested on Flex 4.0[code]...

My main question: is there any way to set variables in MXML that doesn't eat up memory? I'm aware that I can do this explicitly in AS and keep MXML as a bare bone structure but was wondering if there was an alternative path.

Secondary question: why memory usage in c different from a and b? I've looked up at the intermediate code and it seems like the const case still sets up some binding logic but not as much and have been wondering why that is.

Is there a line of code in actionscript that I can input that states that whenever there is "", for the flash to ignore it or just enter a space instead of looking for a new variable.

Data Integration :: Adding Variables To LoadVars Object?

A combobox (created with the returned data) is created on frame 61. When a selection is chosen in the combobox I need to add the value returned from the combobox to the variable catvar, add this variable to the LoadVars object and run the script again. It seems to set c.catvar initially but when I use the 'sendAndLoad command the second time c.catvar isn't included. Is it possible to add variables to a LoadVars object created
on frame 1 from frame 61?
