Actionscript 3.0 :: Receiving Data From A Different Url?
Jun 29, 2010
I'm setting up a kind of database, where the data are coming from a specific url.
I receive the source code of that url, get the data I look for, and display this in a text box. This works fine as long as I start the swf locally. However, when I copy the swf to my home page, the data obviously cannot be received anymore.
To make it more clear (with fictional url): Homepage [URL] contains the swf; tries to automatically read and display the source of [URL]

my first flash webpage sends data to a php script. I then do
var result_data:String = String(contactLoader.data);
if (result_data == "ok")
{
navigateToURL(strURL, "_self");
}
So if the data is sent with no problems, it will load up my new url. Problem is, this new url needs this data to display it. So, if my php file holds the data in variables, how can my new url retrieve these in real time? (meaning that data goes straight from swf to php to new swf) I have been trying LoadVars, but not sure if this will work in real time, maybe it will.

Not getting data back into flash from php that queries mysql data, think the problem is with my as3 code here?The php works, the as3 posts to the php ok, its the returning of the variables to as3 that I am unsure about and seems to be the problem?
public static function MineData():void{
var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("login.php");
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

We are thinking of adding a feature to a main page of a flash site that I will be building shortly, but it requires sending data out to an API where it will be processed and send back to Flash.The form will need to post a number of variables to a URL and then interpret the response code.. is this possible in AS2?

I'm writing a flash chat program using XMLSocket.It's connecting and sending data just fine. The server is sending the data back just fine (I checked the packets on Ethereal), but Flash is just not receiving any data.[code]The server is a Java server written with the NIO classes.

I'm goofing around with developing a Flash game that would be accessible via a Facebook application but am still trying to figure out how I want to organize the game itself. The game essentially is an educational game with competitive components - completing tests faster results in more points with which you can customize your avatar and other items in the game. Also, passing certain "lessons" open up new lessons. So the major components I see are:- Player data storage (scores, progress, etc.)- Social connections - transference of rewards, comparing high scores, etc.- Lesson data (what questions to ask, possible answers, etc.)How is this best controlled? PHP and SQL? XML? Should I use datagrids as an intermediary? I'm having a lot of problems finding good information, both on the internet and at the bookstore about how to manage this.

This is something I noticed on the Adobe documentation pages.
When receiving a textfile from a URL, the function to set the text will either look like this:
function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
var txt:String = URLLoader(event.currentTarget).data as String;
tf.text = txt;

I'm trying to make a barebones, simple flash client communicate ANYTHING to a server over a regular socket. I setup the listeners:
socket = new Socket();
socket.addEventListener(Event.CLOSE, closed);
socket.addEventListener (DataEvent.DATA, onSocketData);
[code]...
And then I connect. On the server side I have a simple policy server on port 843.And then the real socket server that the flash client is connecting to.The flash client connects to the policy server and gets the policy. The flash client then connects to the actual socket server. I know this because I can both see it when snooping the network traffic and the fact that the Event.CONNECT fires off. From snooping the network traffic I can see the flash client send data TO the server when it:
socket.writeUTFBytes( "TEST CLIENT
");
From the server app I can see the data the client sent. The server then returns a little data. I can see this data going from the server to the client in the network traffic snooper. However, the client NEVER sees the data. It never fires off DataEvent.DATA or ProgressEvent.PROGRESS or ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA. There are no errors and the connection remains open for as long as I want it... but the flash client never seems to see the data... no matter how much I send.
Over and over I read online that the data sent to the flash socket needs to be terminated with a � zero byte. I can verify it is in the network traffic snoop.if I try to read any data from the flash app via something like readUTFBytes it always returns nothing found.

The component itself receives all its parameters from a .txt file. The editor is a read/save form that initially loads the parameters into it's form fields, and then overwrites the .txt file when the user hits submit. You then refresh the component on whatever website you have it to see the changes.Here's the php code that I found to get me going:
<?php //Capture data from $_POST array $title = $_POST['Title']; $comments = $_POST['Comments']; $image = $_POST['Image'] //Make one big string in a format Flash understand $toSave = "Title=".$title."&Comments=".$comments."&Image=".$image;

I know that the best way to make a connection from my main app to my modules is through interfaces.
So, my problem is, how can I implement an interface so my module can send and receive data from my main app?, cuz, I understand that my module implements an interface that is used by my main app.. but, can I do it "viceversa"?
Other issue I have is, why do I need to call my main app children if I can just import a module's class?.

I'm developing a web application with Flash CS5 and AS3.0. The problem I'm having is this:At a certain state, the application goes to a frame with a "loading..." animation that loops continuously until the next state is reached. The animation is inside a MovieClip that lives on this frame on the stage (I'm not creating or animating it dynamically). While in this state, the app is waiting to receive a large xml file from an XmlSocket connection. The file takes a few seconds (literally - not milliseconds) to be received fully by the Flash player, and during this time the loading animation stops. I believe the socket is blocking the animation thread until it's done receiving the entire file.Does anyone know of a workaround that would allow the animation to keep playing while the socket is receiving? I've seen pseudo-threading hacks, but those always deal with computations or other activities that can be accomplished by calling a call-back function multiple times. Since I'm just listening on an open socket, there's no callback I could pass to a pseudo-thread.

I want to retrieve data from a Database and display inside a datagrid in a Flex web application. The way I'm thinking of doing it is :
Send the Query data from .mxml file to the .jsp page using HTTPService. In the .jsp, connect to the database and retrieve the data using select statements. send the results back to the .mxml using HTTPService.
I know what to use but I have an ambiguity. In the (.mxml) I use xxx.send() to send the data. What do I use in the (.jsp) to send it back ? I know that I should store the results in an XML in the .jsp file, but how to do that ?

I have a flash-movie on my webpage, which makes a post when its done playing. I want to catch that post and update a session.
I get the following "post-error" when the movie ends.
POST /en/RunTest/test/showmovie/finish
HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
"test" is my controller"showmovie" is my action which takes an id as parameter. fx.
/en/runtest/test/showmovie/1
That is the page my flash is on.
I've tried the using the HandleUnknownAction-method, but it just never gets there. I've tried some MapRoute'ing - but havent succeded.
What i want is the method setMovieSeen to be called whenever i recieve the post from the flash.

I want to instruct a server-side PHP script to generate a dynamic PDF using variables I submit from Flash. I then want to download that PDF back into my Flash application. Can I use "Loader" or "URLLoader" ? If so, how do I structure my code to render the PDF within Flash when it comes back from PHP? ...or do I have to use Flash Remoting or other means to achieve my goal?

As silly as it sounds, i need the trace to see the error. I am using cs4 for this and have not found anything so far to explain why it is not working. You can test it out without needing anything on stage.
This is the error i get and do not know why. undefined is the varSend trace
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/frame1() is the varLoader trace

I have no problem tracing out the returned variable in Flash, however i'm strugling to send back more than one variable.[code]If I remove the trace and echo for fromPHP2, it's all good, however with with my second echo for fromPHP2 it just gives me back undefined:[code]It seems that fromPHP1 is basically returning both echo's.
