I have a client (a photographer) that wants to include a login button for clients. This will take the client to the server where that pars all of this possible in Flash? I have used it for quite some time, but mainly for animation and basic intros, etc. I have been searching for components that handle what I need, but coming up short

How to upload and download a file from client machine to server.
View 1 RepliesI wonder how can I download/save/write a file from my server to a client's computer using flash or flex.
Sign up
Sign in
Click on the ("FREE") button placed on the right of the page. (the
orange button)

then you'll see a confirmation popup for the download, then you choose where do you want to save the file, and the flash movie saves the file!
We're building a web-based application that requires heavy image processing. We'd like this processing load to be on the client as much as possible and we'd like to support as much platforms (even mobiles) as much as possible. Here's the info: Image processing is rasterization from some data. Think like creating a PNG image from a PDF file. We don't have a lot of server power. So client-side processing is a bit of a must.
So, we're considering: Flash - most widespread, but from what i read has lackluster development tools. (and no iPhone/iPad support for now). Silverlight - allows us to use .NET CLR, so a big ++ (a lot of code is in .NET). But is not supported for most mobiles ( rumored android support in the future) HTML5 + Javascript - probably the most "portable" option. The problem is having to rewrite all that image processing code in Javascript.
Clarification: I don't need further ideas on what libraries are available for Silverlight and Javascript. My dilemma is choosing Silverlight means no support for most mobiles choosing Flash means we have to redevelop most of our code AND no iPhone/iPad support HTML5 + Javascript we have to redevelop most of our code and not fully supported yet in all browsers choosing two (Silverlight + Flash) will be too costly Any out-of-the-box or bright ideas / alternatives
i have a flash site im working on, with an image gallery. the way the site is designed, when you enter into a gallery, while it's loading the images (lets say 5-10 images), it draws 5-10 gray boxes in the exact spots the images will load into.
the trick is i need to know in advance how big the gray boxes should be (width/height) before the image is fully downloaded.
i found this site: [URL]
but the way he wrote this, as soon as the class determines the images dimensions, it cancels the download.
i'd rather have a fully complete image class that downloads images, dispatches events with the image dimensions as SOON as theyre detected, and fully downloads the images as well.
I have a need to build a flash login page. No big deal, but I need to have six seperate login accounts. For example:
Username: user1 Password: pass = link to [URL]
Username: user2 Password: pass = link to [URL]
Username: user3 Password: pass = link to [URL]
and so on for up to six users.
Again the usernames and passwords would not change, but need to redirect the particular user to a certain page.
stop();
var user_input = "";
var pass_input = "";
login_button.onRelease = function(){
if(user_input == "user1"
&& pass_input == "pass"){
getURL([URL], "GET");
}else{
gotoAndStop (3);
}}
how could i make a login form for people to use to login to a certain area?? like for instance on this website [url]..... at the bottom he has a client login form....how could i do that?
View 4 RepliesAnyone know if you can connect, login, post an image to a Facebook account directly from inside of Flash? I grabbed the Facebook API for AS3 and have it installed, created an application definition on Facebook but am having no look connecting to it? I have seen some refereneces to it only working inside of Flex and am wondering it that's the case. I am looking to do a kiosk application where a camera image will be uploaded directly to the persons FB page.

View 2 RepliesI have a client that is defined to allow networking only (no access to the local file system). I want to load an image from an FTP server and display it on the flash client (developed in AS3). From what I read, I saw that the FTP server must contain a cross domain policy file on the root folder. I currently get an error, a sandbox violation error and access denied to the ftp server. I don't know what to do.I placed the crossdomain.xml file that contains:
Code:
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*" secure="true"/>

Is flash capable to resize images in clients computer and then upload them?
View 6 RepliesI'm working on a project that demands a file upload for images. The guys over at development decided to use flash for this but they are not very proficient on the platform. Go figure... What I would like to do is get the image dimensions for validation purposes BEFORE the image is received by the server. I know it is possible to check for file size.
View 5 RepliesI am having a flash object integrated in my html page. It requires a version of 10 to run it. If the client is not having the flash player of 10 or above, the flash will not come and it will look a bit odd. In that case, I want to show an alternate image. What is the best way to do it?In fact I have the javascript code for it. But I dont know how to utilize it to get what I need.[code]
View 1 RepliesWe want a web app that allows a user to edit images on the browser and we're trying to decide which technology to use. We want to support simple image customization, such as high-quality resizing, cropping, image merging, and color transformations, as well as the addition of text elements with different fonts and colors.
The current options are: Flash: no worries about cross-browser compatibility; could use same image library on client and server; no iPhone/iPad support. Java (compiled to javascript with GWT): need to find a good image library in pure Java so it can be compiled to JS. Plain old javascript + HTML5: may be a mess due to multiple browsers; may need to write image editing code from scratch. Here's what's most important to us / criteria for choosing:
Image consistency: the image that the client edits on the browser must be exactly the same as the one we'll eventually use on the backend. We can achieve this by (a) having the same library both on the client and server to process images, (b) having the client generate the image and upload it to the server, or (c) use two different image processing libraries on the client/server and hope for the best in terms of consistency.
Option (a) seems best, but it would only be possible if we use Flash or Java/GWT. We don't like option (b) because the images are large; we'd rather save a sequence of operations to perform on a raw image than saving multiple transformed images. And we don't really know if option (c) is safe or not. Scalability: We prefer the client to do as much work as possible to decrease server load. Image quality must be kept high
Cross-platform: We'd like to support as many platforms as possible without rewriting everything (big negative for Flash due to iPhone/iPads).
i try to get a bytearray from a webcam. i can get the image of the webcam, copy it to bitmapdata and get the bytearray. but is it possible to get the bytearray from the image and sound from the client's webcam?
View 2 RepliesI am creating client side PDF with image using flex and AlivePDF for a web based application. Images have been generated on that pdf but it is creating problem for large size images as half of the image disappeared from that pdf. I am taking the image inside a canvas. How do I control my images so that they come fit on that pdf file for any image size that I take.
View 1 RepliesI'm rather inexperienced with flash and as3, and I've been given a task of writing a program that downloads images from URLs that are provided, and saves them to a specified location on the user's computer.
The idea is to be able to download multiple images (user selects them) and download them all to a single directory (which the user selects first) so that he doesn't have to download them one by one. Also, putting them in an archive and downloading as one file wasn't an option.The only solution I found is using FileReference.save(), which won't work for me because it opens a save dialog.
I'm creating some image uploader in Flex with client-side image processing. Processing consists of two steps:
1. Resizing (solved)
2. Converting resized image (represented by ByteArray in PNG32 with alpha-channel) to gray-scale PNG with bit-depth = 2 and no color-palette. Is there any existing library that is capable of second step? Something like libpng for C++, maybe?Edit:It seem I stumbled upon rarely encountered problem. However my descision was to create an AS3 class that is capable of converting bitmapData to 2bit grayscale PNG. I used standart PNGEncoder and PNG format specification (which is not so good as I expected) as basis.

View 8 Replies[url]...Now I have a problem, I would like to add DOWNLOAD button for every image, or to add ''Back'' button, and clicking on the image would open it in new window for downlading. I tried to modify code on my own but I didn't succeed a lot. I dont know if I have to put links in XML file and then create new var like ''picUrl'' or something? My main problem is creating function for that.

So, if I have the actual file on my server, I want to display download.png image ...however, when I compile & run the code above, the .png image appears randomly..regardless of if "file" exists.
I'm creating a flash application that will post images to a url for saving to disk/display later. I was wondering what are some suggested strategies for making this secure enough so that the upload is verified as coming from the application and not just some random form post. Is it reliable enough to check referring location realizing that I don't need bulletproof security, or perhaps setting authentication headers is a better strategy even though it seems unreliable from what I have read. The application and the server script will reside on the same domain and is in java - is there a way to check for a 'session' or something like that?
Another thought I had was some sort of simple hashed key type system, I could hard-code a key into the flash application and pass something to the server based on that - the server would also know this key and be able to verify if the value passed was based on that? The app is a public app, so authenticating users is not an option. After more research I am thinking about using a hard coded salt key on both ends, then sending an MD5 hash of the base64 encoded image bytearray+salt to be matched on the server side.
I am making a site for a tattooist and they need to update the gallery of tattoo images (jpg) about 4 or 6 times a year. I am making it in flash mx.I thought back to things i'd heard about and came to the conclusion that xml might be the best way with this - so the client can open a text file and change the image name and then upload the image as needed to the server.
View 2 RepliesAlmost every flash player has an option to display how much of buffer (or % of total video) is downloaded to the client. At the moment I don't see it in any implementation of html5 video player.
The real problem I am trying to solve is to have a way of knowing % of downloaded asset (image/swf/video whatever). In flash its easy by using MovieClipLoader and bytesLoaded property.
Is there any way of doing it in HTML/HTML5/Javascript (without relying on Flash) ?

No issues with the download. It automatically prompts for a Save dialog. Works well. But i want to open the image being downloaded in a viewer(flash viewer or any) instead of the save dialog.
I have an upload form for an image. The user clicks browse and selects a file. How can I get the image dimensions the moment the user selects the file (before the file is even uploaded to the server). It obviously has to be something client-side with maybe javascript/jquery or flash/flex (prefer js//jquery though), but can either of them do this? This is the code I'm using to tie into zozo's getImgSize() function, but it gives me 0*0 as size.

In flex, what we do, we normally upload the image from flex end and upload it to the serveri want to know, can we do some details checking, like i want to find out the imageesolution(on the client side) before it is uploaded to the server,There are going to be two profits, first the client doesn't need to wait for long to image get uploaded, and in case if finding the image resolution is on the server end, so it willtake time, even the image to be uploaded is not of expected resolutionsecond, the user interaction & interface with the flex application will be improved,
