I want to make a script that will list online users when they enter a page.Simple way is record newly entered users into MySQL and list them for example every second.But I don't think it's a good idea with tons of users like in a facebook app come in and out of the page.There would be a way with Flash and PHP sockets but I really don't want to use Flash either.So is there any option left?

What will I need to make it so that a player has to create an account and sign in, and then others can do the same and they can all see each other in the room. I have been unable to find resources on what it takes to turn a flash game into a chatroom or an "MMO".

View 2 RepliesI am a novice Flash user as I have built one "members section" website using Flash CS4 (but used Actionscript 2).I am now in the process of learning ActionScript 3 and am working towards building a v2.0 of my original website. The original website uses a PHP authentication system, where a user logs in through a regular HTML page. Once authenticated, they are given the option to access the members section.I wish to eliminate the need to have our users log in through this HTML page as I wish this to be built directly into Members Section 2.0 however I haven't got slightest clue how to construct a users "login" function.
have users login (authenticate themselves) through the main page of this Flash project by the flash project referencing the MYSQL user names and password database. Additionally, there are three types of users that will be logging into this site (Status A users, Status B users and Status C users).
We need to protect various downloadable documents (Word files and PDF's) to ensure only those with the correct authentication are granted access to particular files. I.E. Status "A" users get access to everything, Status B users get access to almost everything and Status C users get access to very few files.
I assume the best method for this, is to store the files in three folders, once for each Status Class therefore Status A users will access files from the Status A folder, Status B users will only be able to access files from the "B" folder and so on. best method to protect these files from unauthorized access I.E. "C" users attempting to download a document that is only intended for "A" users?
i'm trying to create an online brochure that users design with products/images they've selected. users will be able to drag a thumbnail to a pre-designed area, then swap them around to their liking. currently i'm in the beginning stages and just learning the power of actionscript.
i've attached two sample .fla files i've been working with. the first sample i have two thumbnails drag to a target and enlarge to a defined size. the second sample i used a tutorial from flashkit --- drag drop swap. it works but the as is not up-to-date. i'm trying to incorporate the two ideas together but get bizarre effects. most of the examples i find are close but no cigar.
So, here is the question. I have a small flash application that sends some variables to a php script (via POST), and that php script sends them to a mySQL database.
This works fine when I'm testing my flash offline, I go to phpmyadmin, and the registry is done. When I upload the swf to a online html, this stops working. It no longer creates another registry in the database. I have no ideia why this happens.
I read a bit about it and found out about cross domain policy, and thought it might be the problem. Thus I made a small .xml file and uploaded it to both servers (the one the swf is on, and the one that has the database), and its still not working.

If I have variables coming in to flash from a PHP script.
Whats the best way to populate a drop down list with these variables?
Basically each row in my table is a different food. I have columns for basic things like description. But, I have a "ingredients" array, and "how much" array, in an array. Basically on my end I can go ingredientsArray[0] howMuch[0] to display the ingredient and how much of it. So, Id like to save both of these arrays in a cell for the row of the food. I heard I could serialize the array, and save it. But I need it to be searchable. (Also, there is no set limit to how many ingredients. So I cant like have a column for each thats why I am going the array route). I'm doing my programming in AS3, and usng AMFPHP to connect to Mysql.

View 6 RepliesI have a typical Flex-based application that was written to use a Java/Hibernate/MySQL backend. The client changed the requirements - now they want to distribute it on a CD where the user can just run the app without any installation or a network connection.
To do this, I certainly need to eliminate the web server and the database server and adapt my application (with as few changes as possible, of course) to a stand-alone application that will fit on a CD/DVD. I've managed to export the data to XML and read it into Flex, but I'm wondering if there's a way to recreate the Hibernate data structures in Flex so I could change as little code as possible. Failing that, is there any way to keep the existing Java/Hibernate external to the Flex code but retrievable without installing Apache Tomcat or MySQL?

The 'recommendations' dataProvider is an ArrayCollection of String, which are generally sentences about as long as this one. By setting the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties as shown, if a sentence is too long to fit on a single line, everything works fine- the row expands and the messages show on two lines, or occasionally three.
The space allocated for this panel within the entire canvas means if the total text size of 'recommendations' exceeds six lines, I need for the entire list scroll. This is also working just fine. The trouble is when using the mouse wheel to do the scrolling- Flex scrolls both the entire list and the single item where the mouse is hovering. Often this results in only the second half of a sentence being visible. Non-programmer friends I have asked to look at this noticed this, and tell me it as a problem. If a user does not notice the dual scrolling, and sees only a fragment of a sentence, it will be perceived as an error in the application.
