Data Integration :: Date Interchange Between Flash And MySQL?
Jun 16, 2009
I am using the function below to convert a Flash AS3 Date type to a MySQL- compatible 'datetime' string. It is working fine, BUT I am worried that AS3 may not extract the 'same date format' from different client computers thereby rendering my function useless.Is there a better way of passing date to MySQL? One that gaurantees consistancy.
public function getMySQLdate(flashDate:Date):String var year:String;var month:String;var day:String;var hours:String;
var minutes:String;var seconds:String;

I'm in the process of expanding an admin area for a website (coded with PHP and MySQL) and would like to get my client list into a flash combo box. the main columns I would need would be the account and the company name... In a regular example would be
<select name='client'>
<option value='2460'>Client 1</option>
<option value='2461'>Client 2</option>
</select>
If I could get this I should be away...

I am a DBA and I provide data to the developers at my companyin XML format. The developers create Flash graphics and use the XMLto populate data variables. I want to start requiring thedevelopers to make calls directly to my MySQL databases so anytimei have to make a change to the underlying data, I don't get stuckgenerating an updated XML file for the developers.My developers tell me a Flash graphic cannot make a calldirectly to a mySQL database. They say Flash has to reference apage in which variables are defined, such as an XML, PHP, ASP pageetc. This page, they say, is generated from database info, butFlash does not directly make the call to the database ... thatanother programming technology (XML, PHP, etc.) does and has toparse the information, making it available to Flash.

I need to display a full recordset (say a table or a select from a table, returning many rows, not a single one) in a Flash doc, but I'm clueless. BTW, I read in other messages about amfphp which seems to be a good choice, but I can't use it on the Web Server (got no choice here).

I got a music portfolio web site running PHP, MySQL and Flash. There's a page showing all the artists my client worked for and when you click on a song title, this title is passed as a variable to a PHP page then to a Flash page. The Flash page contains an actionscript music player which then looks for the right audio file in the database and plays the song. Everything works great except for the dynamic text field which displays the song title. If the song title contains an apostrophe or a single quote, the Flash dynamic text field then shows the apostrophe.[code]

First time on here.We teach English through games. All done on flash AS3 now. Want to put courses online so I have been told to use php to communicate to server and database. My question is:Do I use mysql to save stats or xml FIRST: I will get info from xml and send it to my activities in flash - I'm OK with thisSECOND: I want to send out stats from flash to mysql OR xml. The stats are:1. Student logs on of course using username and password (well that comes in not out)2. What lesson the student is on ie: 2, 3, etc...3. Highscores for game activities4. Scores student gets on each activity As far as I can see the only stats that grow are the scores on each activity and even those could be erased periodically.

For various reasons, I would prefer to store binary data like images and videos as BLOBs within a MySQL database and have Flash retrieve that content directly from the database as opposed to getting it from a URL on a fileserver. So, I have written a PHP script that Flash calls which does a database query and returns the bitmap data from the BLOB. I have verified that the image data is being sent from the database through the PHP, but Flash either doesn't display the image or gives me an error saying that it is an unknown type.
[Code]....
Is there a way to get Loader() to accept bitmap image data that is retrieved from a BLOB in a database? Should I try to get PHP to mimic the response from an HTTP server or is there another way to load bitmap data stored as a BLOB into a display object?

I have a php page that sends xml compiled from data in a mysql table to my swf. The swf is actually an auction and I need to load in the' end time' of that item and do a date comparision for a countdown.
So what I'm asking for, in a nutshell, is for the best way to load in a date from a database in such a way that it can be used for date comparisons?
The mysql field is a datetime field. I can modify the format in php to whatever you feel in the best format (I need year, month,day,hour,min, seconds) - but I don't know what to do with the date once I have it in flash.
example xml: <Item end_time="2005-04-01 00:00:00" />
can I convert it into a valid date with out string manipulation? since the following doesn't work (obviously)
my_date = new Date(oXML.firstChild.attributes.end_time)
What I need is to be able to take the current time & substract it from the time in the xml to give me the remaining time.

I have a video player that is currently using XML for its video library which is all fine and dandy. Now I have some developers working on a CMS type page in PHP that is going to hopefully pass some sort of information to my player that will let it know where the video is stored on our server. Is there a way to do this without using FMS? If so does anyone have ideas where I can find the information for it.

I'd like to create one empty Flash movie that is essentially a placeholder for externally loaded content I can change through XML. This content would just be able to randomly load 1 of 3 photos, with a button linking to a website within each of the photos on page load. If the user refreshes the page, a new photo with it's link would appear, but I understand since it's random,having 3 images the same image is likely to reappear, but I can always add additional photos and links.
Does anyone know of a tutorial that might lead me on the correct path to create this? I've found some tuts, but they've been different than my need.

We want to be able to upload over 100+ files (if needed) to a server along with desc + keywords. I see that Flash 8 has the neccessary tools to handle file uploading, but my question is, can we have it act as a Stand alone FTP program so that we can utilize the fastest user upload, or will we be confined to the settings in the server INI settings.IE MAX_UPLOAD_TIME,MAX_FILESIZE, etc. If possible we want to avoid using the HTTP upload as it is noticeably slower. So if we can use flash to utilize user BW to upload, then that would be ideal.

ok I have amfphp returning a query that is a Date data type in side of mysql. It is in this format "2007-27-5" which is a string. When making a date object in flash you need some thing like this
Code: var testDate:Date = new Date(2007, 4, 27); I would like to know if there is a short cut around this problem. As it would look now I need to take that string and have a regular expression pull the sub-strings ("2007", "5", "27") out and some how convert the sub-strings in to a numbers (2007, 5, 27), then set vars with the number latter sending it to that date constructor.

We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.
