I have a string of of base64-encoded PNG image that is suitable to use as a src (source) attribute in a <img> tag. However I need to transfer this image to Flash applet where I need to create (show) the image fast. Is there a way to simply use the data string and somehow create an image (inside a Flash movie) from it?

I'm developing a flex application that displays a list of images along with some metadataThe images are less than 500kb. They are stored in the database as base64 encoded stringsretrieved using PHP, send over to flex as XML (which creates a fairly large XML output file)Now my problem is that, while I can display upto 2-3 images easily, anything more than 3 or sometimes 2 images will cause the images to be corrupt. Sometimes the whole app fails.I am guessing this is due to the large size of the generated XML. I know I am doing something wrong here. I want to know what is the proper method for storing/retrieving a lot of images in a flex application.

Flash will be receiving a Base-64 encoded image (from a web service) and need to convert & display that image on the stage.
For conceptual purposes, I'm omitting the web-service aspect for now and just reading in a Base-64 string, generated from an online service.
Now that I have the data into Flash, how do I properly convert it to an image and display it.
I want a class that I'm going to pass a short bit of XML data And then I want that class to create either a Sprite or Clip that consists of an image and some text based on the XML data Example my XML might look like
<root>
<image url="whatever.com/image.jpg">
<name data="Blanius">
</root>
I know how to get to the data what I'm looking for is the best way to create this Sprite on my stage.should the class create a sprite or clip?should the class called to create an instance and then I addChild in my core script?
In Flex, I have a GUID that I receive as input in the following format "as a string. How would I convert this to a string of Base64 encoded values?
Please note that we have to account for leading zeroes in each section of the GUID, for example, "0091AFBC-8558-482A-9CF6-64F1745E7AC1"
In javascript, I have a variable which holds a pdf in base64 (the pdf is generated in flex and passed to js). I want to open it in the browser (ie I want the browser to display the open/save dialog box letting the user open or save the pdf).
I am using Data URI which works fine in some browsers, but is not supported in IE 6/7:
function getPdf(pdf) {
window.open("data:application/pdf;base64," +pdf);
}
How can I get this PDF to open in IE6 and 7? I've read about MHTML as an alternative to data uri but I don't think it can do what I need, or can it? For now I just need to open pdfs but in the future I will probably need to add support for xls (MS Excel) files too. Currently I'm using Flash's Filereference.save to let the user save the pdf to the disk then he can open it, but the client is insisting on giving the user a choice to open it automatically rather than forcing him to save it first.
Out of a drawing I'm generating a PNG and upload it as a Base64 string via PHP to my server. Is it possible to compress the Base64 string in AS3?

I have recently been using Charles the debugging app. And noticed a very chatty app named skyrocket (a very very cool slide presentation app) sending a lot of data across the wire. It is built in flex by the looks and I was wondering why they had chosen to send their data using base64 and not amf. Is it because they don't want to be locked into the flash platform? Or could there be another reason. Is it to store it as XML in the database as they don't want to be dealing with amf when handing data to other services/clients (iPhone etc).
View 2 RepliesI'm using AS3 to base64 encode a JPG and pass it to Javascript. I'm attempting to use AJAX to pass that base64 encoded string to PHP and have PHP decode it. (I know I could send it back to Flash and Flash could decode it and send it to PHP, but I'm trying to eliminate the need for Flash on the decoding end).It appears that AS3's encodeToBase64String() function and and PHP's base64_decode() function do not use the same algorithm, as PHP evaluates it as a base64 encoded object, but does not seem to output it properly

View 2 Replies'm trying to convert a movieclip to base64 and send it a server.
I've checked everywhere and I realized I can do it with an external PHP page that will communicate with the flash file and will send the MC as BASE64 JPG using POST.
Unfortunately, my client asked me to do that WITHOUT ANY EXTERNAL FILES (so I can't use the PHP page). Only the final SWF should be used.
I've tried to convert the project from AS2 to AS3, but it seems to be almost impossible.
Is there any way to convert the MC to JPG without the PHP page?

So I'm using AlivePDF to generate a 6 page PDF with a range of text and graphics. It's a fairly large PDF, prob 4mb when saved. I need to be able to pass the PDF along with a few other variables to a PHP script that uploads the PDF and then sends an email.
Because I need to pass the PDF data along with other information, I've been using a standard POST request with URLVariables, only I Base64 encode the PDF ByteArray before sending to avoid any sort of corrupt data. This works fine, except the Base64 encode operation takes ~8 seconds, and sometimes longer on a slower machine, causing a timeout.
