I would like to store a FileReference object somehow and load it when the SWF loads again. I tried to use the SharedObject class but it does not seem to work. I suspect that what I want to do is not doable due to security issues (not using Adobe AIR), but I wanted to check. Any way to store a FileReference object please and load it when the SWF is restarted?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to use the load method of FileReference object to load the data and use it to display a thumbnail of the selected image.However, after calling fr.load(), fr.data remains null.I'm using Flex Builder 3.0.2 on Windows 7 with Flex SDK 3.4 and Flash Player 10 Debug. If I evaluate fr.load() in Eclipse's watch variables list, I get an error reading "No such variable: load."

I am creting an application that containts 3 seperate slideshows inside movie clips, when one slideshow finishes the other starts. I do this by triggering the function inside the other movieclip slideshow ( _root.slideshow2.startSlideshow(); ) and stopping the currently running function startSlideshow = null; inside existing slide. It works until it gets to the 3rd slideshow and than everything freezes because all the functions where deleted
View 2 RepliesIn Action Script, FileReference.browse() is called. I would like to send the chosen file to Javascript and convert it to File object, just like if I would press the Browse button of the <input type='file /> and got File object. I need that to be able to display picture thumbnail like shown here. Maybe instead of passing the whole object it is possible to send only the required information for the thumbnail from the object?

I am almost done my short AS3 "Flight of the Conchords" game I just want to attempt to do one last thing...to successfully restart the game without getting a bunch of null object errors. The way it restarts now is that if you die or win the game then a screen pops up and a button takes you to the previous scene (menu), the problem is that once it goes to the previous scene all these null object errors occur.
P.S. This is my second time working with AS3, and I was able to do this following a YouTube tutorial by Borris123psn.
I'm working on a small validation script, to check elements of a data object for duplicates... it goes a little something like this (hit it!):
[Code]....
and continued my loop, it would work, but instead, it would catch the first duplicate, but miss the rest after that. Basically what I'd like to do is simple: If this record[i] is equal to record[i+1], skip record[i+1] and go through it again... I just can't seem to figure it out
I have a working s3 uploader in actionscript that uses the FileReference class so a user can browse for files to upload when he/she clicks on the upload button. I have a web application and I want the user to have his/her configuration saved to s3 as an XML file when they hit the save button, so the "save" button will trigger the upload. However, I cant figure out a way to add the XML file to the FileReference variable I create. I was looking at the File class but that appears to be only usable in AIR. Is it possible to create a FileReference object based off of an XML file that actionscript creates within the application without browsing for a file using FileReference.browse(); ?

Is there any way to get the file path of an object that is selected through the browse() method in the FileReference class. I don't think it can be done with a FileReference object, but is there another class that allows this, or any possible way to do this using XML?

I am trying to remove an event listener on a FileReference object by calling a function, but it seems not to be removed, and I do not understand why.
Here is the code:
private function clearFileUploadListeners(file:FileReference, index:String):void {
var dispatchEvent:Function = function(event:Event):void {
dispatch(event.type, event, index); };
file.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dispatchEvent);
var bool:Boolean = file.hasEventListener(Event.COMPLETE);
if (bool)
trace("ERROR");
}
When I run this code, the trace actually happens. I don't understand why this boolean returns true, when I just tried to remove the eventListener just above! I believe it has to do with the fact that the dispatchEvent function is defined inside another function when I add the listener:
private function upload(file:FileReference, index:String):void {
var dispatchEvent:Function = function(event:Event):void {
dispatch(event.type, event, index); };
file.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dispatchEvent);
}
The problem is that I need to access this "index" variable from the listener, and I can't set it as a global variable as each file has it's own index and it's a burden if I have to extend each event class to keep track of the index (Event, ProgressEvent, ..). I actually found a temporary solution, I am not sure if it is the best! I put my removeListener method actually inside the upload method, but made it a variable. As AS3 allows dynamic object, I attached this method to one of my object, and so I just call the reference to the method when necessary. The event is actually removed.
I have a basic photo editor I am building in flash but I want the user to be able to load an image into flash before its output to the server. Can this be done or does it have to go to the server first then have flash load it from the server? Trying to avoid the overhead and traffic of sending it on place then downloading the same thing back.

View 1 RepliesLet me start by saying I have no intention of using php and I can't wait until flash cs5 comes out with its new read/write capabilities want to load and save XML files (stored on my local hard-drive) in AS3.I am using the FileReference class.Firstly I have noticed that when using FileReference.save if you replace an existing file instead of writing over the file data is appended to the end of the file. Can I make it so the file is overwritten (as it should be) or make it impossible for the user to save in such a situation.Secondly I want to load in text from an external file using FileReference.load I know that somehow you use FileReference.browse first to get it to work but I want to know exactly how to do it.I have looked for a tutorial about loading text in this manner and have not found one.

i am preparing a game, the game has four bet spots. i want to save the user bet details. i like to save the user bet details in an object, so i can access it whenever i need. I have done same thing in AS 2.0. my object will look like

View 1 RepliesI have an array name region it has a couple of properties. "code", "name", "value"
I want to store this array in an indexed object called regions.
I would then like to access the object by referring to its sub property name
regions[1].code
regions[1].name
regions[1].value
I can set an array region.code, region.name and region.value but I can not set the regions values
regions[1].code = "abc"
regions[1].name ="alphabet"
regions[1].value =26
note: region is singular and regions is plural(many)
Can someone outline the variable definition and construct so I can access this information. Happy to replace the index field with the code value.
