we use Flex Charts to generate reports and want to be able to have these reports emailed out on a scheduled basis. To do that, we need the SWF to run (as if in the browser) to fetch the report data and then have its contents converted to PDF or a static image. This needs to happen server side with no interaction from a user. Currently we solve this via an AIR app that can read the report file, but a static image or PDF would be much more desirable.
I need a help in AS 3.0. The requirement is, user needs to draw something and take a screenshot or in the PDF format from flash swf by clicking a Save button[Save button will be in the same flash file]. Is it possible in AS 3.0 without any other server-side program?
This is very urgent. Please let me know whether this is possible or not.
I have a project that will have a video upload capability. The thing with this is when the user uploads it has to of course play in the custom Flash player - the only way for that to happen, to my knowledge, is if that video is in FLV format. how to convert the uploaded video file to FLV (serverside not client).
I am building a flash widget for uploading files, but I want to display the thumbnail with html/js, once I have the file loaded via Browse into flash and have access to the raw data, is there a way to convert that to a base64 encoded dataURL so I can send that back out to JS to create a thumbnail like ?
I'm trying to get some xml on the serverside to parse. I can load the xml just fine so there is no problem there but i can't get the streamArray to populate nor can i get any of the if statments after loaded to execute. Here is the code feel free to use the xml document on my server.
var StreamArray = new Array();var location_xml = new XML(); location_xml.onLoad = function( success ) { if(location_xml.loaded == true) {trace(location_xml); if (location_xml.firstChild.hasChildNodes()) { for (var aNode = location_xml.firstChild.firstChild; aNode != null; aNode=aNode.nextSibling) {
I'm using the following code to attempt to get netStream.time on the serverside.....i've tried various ways googled it but have come up short...what code do i need to use so i can track a streams progress from the server side?
myStream = Stream.get("home1"); setInterval(time,5000,myStream.time); function time(myStream){ trace(myStream); }
I've been struggling with this a while now and I'm wondering if there's a way to through flash and perhaps some serverside script upload big files to a ftp. My webhost has a php upload limit at 20MB, so I need to find a solution so that I can upload files up to 1 gig to my ftp. Is it a dead end situation or can I solve it in any way?
I have a game that allows people to arrange images however they like, but I need a way for users to take a screenshot/image of their design (stage) so it can be emailed. I've found loads of examples that use server side scripts such as php (JPEGEncoder) but this particular program I�m creating is for internal office use only and don�t have access to a server to upload it.
I've implemented a serverside script that records the current stream to disk. This record method is called from another clientside flash application. On some occasions the recording suddenly stops after a few hours without giving any errors, and without there being any network dropouts (Flash Media Encoder doesn't report any dropouts). What can be the cause of this, and what can I do to make the recording more stable?
I am very much a beginner to rails and I have a specific need for it. I wish to connect it to a flex app, and also use it to call a database.
For example when the following web page is visited: ?User=bob&id=4&lic=234 Take 'bob' and 4 and add them to an existing database table if the license number is valid and not already used. I don't want to use the standard database stuff, I will need to write my own SQL queries as well as have logic for checking other stuff to do with registering users etc. It is already done with Coldfusion but I am having issues with it, and would like to have it work with Ruby instead.
But to start with, I just want the ability to call a web page (on localhost:3000) get the string after the URL "?User=bob&id=4&lic=234" in this case and output "User:bob id:4" to the screen. I want to learn what the code is doing rather than have the least lines of code solution. I would rather use as little of the rails framework to do this as this will help me learn the language. I won't be making the standard website so learning the rails framework won't be so useful to me.
looking for, however I am having problems connecting with databases, mysql in this case:
I need to develop small flash aplication which will upload photos, videos and other files to server. But is it possible to upload these assets without serverside scripting like php or coldfusion? I mean that flash should independently upload images to server. Is it possible?
We are going to develop a simple chatroom in flex using Red5.Should we store UserList in a Remote Shared Object or Server Side List?Are there any example exit on Red5 or FMS , which uses Server Side programming and Remote Shared Objects? Red5 examples are not documented at all.
I wonder if this is possible using Flash or any of the other Adobe products.

Is it possible to convert the text above into an image? Generate dynamic images isn't problem but generating dynamic images which takes html tags into count is for me problematic. (the <br /> shouldn't be displayed instead it should generate a new line) So I was wondering if Flash had some ideas how it can be done...

how to change a swf to gif image?i used publish settings i got the gif image.there is animation playing in swf,but in gif instead of that animation some boxexare cuming.is there any other method to do that?
I'm working on somewhat of a templated system where I've got a SWF file as a template and then people upload their own images and place them in the certain masked areas of the SWF to create like a scrapbook page.
My question is this, what would be the best way to convert those images to an image that people can save and thus print? Would I have to do this while their viewing the SWF or is there a way to generate an image with some sort of command line tool that I'd pass the swf the user's settings to make the SWF unique each time?
in AS 3.0. The requirement is, user needs todraw something and take a screenshot or in the PDF format fromflash swf by clicking a Save button[Save button will be in the sameflash file]. Is it possible in AS 3.0 with out any plug-ins?
I'm giving users the ability to upload an image to my Air app, then displaying this image in an image control. But I need to allow for PDF uploading in the same manner, so I need to convert the PDF to an image. I only care about the first page of the PDF they upload for now. What I'm doing is:
1) User browses for a file with the file reference control 2) User chooses the image or PDF to upload 3) I encode said image to base64 and store it 4) I then load from that base64 with something like:
Flash will be receiving a string from the web, either Javascript or query string from the URL(which I'm comfortable with). GOAL: Use that string as a byte array and convert it to bitmap data and display on the screen.
MY PERCEPTION: Use ByteArray and readBytes (I've worked with neither before) to parse the string. Then convert that into Bitmap Data and draw the bitmap on the stage.
I am printing around 50(swf) pages in flash AS2.0. In printer we can print the movie clip only. But i need to convert the movie clip in to image and that image needs to be printed instead of movie clip.
I'm trying to convert an image viewer into an nav bar. The images are blurred and as the mask rolls over, the sharper image then becomes visible in its place. All the pics are in one MC. I want to add AS to make each image at on release go to a separate url.
I need to take a .swf Flash file, ideally from a URL (but I can read the file from disk also) and create an image preview of it (png, gif or jpeg is fine).I am using Adobe Coldfusion 8 so I'm looking for a Java solution. I need to get the first frame of the Flash movie only.
EDIT: I need to do this on the server in Java/CF at runtime - it's got to be automatic - I'm not looking for screen-grab software.
I'm trying to make a tile-based AS3 game that uses PNG images as the base for maps that loads them from the library and converts the data to an array with each pixel of data being an individual tile. Essentially, if I had a 128x128 pixel PNG with say, green pixels being converted to "GRASS" in my array, I could then cycle through the array and add tiles to the map movieclip accordingly. I've looked at the ByteArray class and I can't seem to decode the data into a usable format.
