I've got several archived text files - 040107.txt,040207.txt, 040307.txt, for example - and I want to be able to build a dynamic link which loads whichever file is selected intothe Flash movie. This list needs to be able to build itself as Iwrite new files every day and add the old ones to the archive.
View 6 RepliesWe are mainly developing On-line web application works on Flash Movie remixer which remixes more than two flash movies (Picture In picture), SWF layers, Run-time special effects (Chroma-key, fire filter, etc.) and sound layers.This site is similar to the [url].... Recently we were having an issue that user should render the remixed movies and layers to one flash movie file (FLV format).

View 1 RepliesSo I am trying to load variables from a .php file into a movie clip and then plug in those variables to various fields and for some reason its not working...so heres whats going on...(this is for the staff page for my church)
In the primary timeline we have this line...
loadVariables("./middleware/staff.php?id=" + staffID,
staff_panel, "GET");
We are loading the variables into the movie clip which contains our various fields...the value for staffID is created in the previous frame when the user click on that person's icon, we know for sure that this is being passed correctly to this frame, because I have a text box in the main timeline which displays the number.
The resulting string from the .php file looks like this...
staffNameE=Jason+Webb&staffTitleE=Lead+Pastor&staffDescE=Jason's+bio+g oes+here...&picLoader=./images/staff_pics/jwebb.jpg&staffEmail=webmast er@brooklife.org
Within the movie clip that the variables are being loaded into we have this....it loops till the var load is done and then writes the information to the fields...
while (L ne "stop"){
if (staffNameE ne ""){
staffName = staffNameE;

I trying to load indivual strings of text from an external file. example: I have a movie that navigates from frame to frame. on each frame I'd like a line of text to load into the movie. When the user navigates to the next frame the text loaded vanishes and is replaced by another line of text. This can be done with separate txt files, right but I was wondering if and how it could be done using one external text file.

myData = new LoadVars ()
myData.onLoad = function () {

I have managed to load an external text file in one place one the maintimeline. I would like to do the same thing on other frames. When I go to duplicate the same thing that I did on the first one I get a duplicate textReq request. Do I need to give the textReq a more specific name for each section? When I did this the movie wouldn't even recognize and of the code that was working before.I am attaching link so you can see sections I am talking aboutAlso you will notice that the swf file I loaded won't go away. That's another problem...ugh.Here is code on maintimeline:

Im new to placing external data into Flash. I just got CS3 and Im trying to use Flash to dynamically load XML data via a FlashVars call in the HTML.
The problem is I have followed the very straight forward AS2 Help files for using FlashVars and URL variables.I have placed the code directly from the Help file into the Html between
<noscript> <noscript>and i keep getting undefined.I have tried saving the file as flash 8 and i am publish flash 8.
I am developing a VB.NET Windows application that plays SWF and FLV files in popup windows.
The user presses a button on the main application form, a window pops up, and the Flash media will then play (in theory).
I was successful in getting SWF files to play. First, I added the Shockwave Flash Object AciveX control to my toolbox (VB.NET named it AxShockwaveFlash1), and then double clicked it to add it to my popup form. Then, in the startup routine for my popup, I added the following lines to play my SWF:
AxShockwaveFlash1.Movie = "path/filename.swf"
AxShockwaveFlash1.Play()
I attempted exactly the same approach using a separate form for an FLV file, this time of course setting the Movie property of the Shockwave Flash Object to "path/filename.flv". In this case, the FLV file did not play. There were no error messages, but just a popup screen with nothing on it.
Im making a three related VB program and i want to integrate them into one package, for the easier access and navigation on those program, I make a flash file which serves as interface or menu for the navigation. My problem is how to call or run on those program in just one click of a flash button, i want to run the exe program not the installer. I mean if I install the program that I made in the VB on my PC, there must a menu to choose on the three program. I try to use the geturl and it works but there is prompt(popup message for to choose run and save. I want if i click the button, it will go directly on the application.
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to work on a web portal for updating a website I am creating. I originally duplicated a write-to-.txt php script and duplicated it for each of my pages, but for some reason it isn't working out very well as I assume they are fighting with each other. I am looking into creating what I assume is called an array, so that I can store 5 separate data pieces in one text file but I can't seem to find a tutorial that is close to this. the closest I can find is a guestbook tutorial but it is very out of date. I would like to be able to store multi-line text (so that paragraphs and breaks are preserved) from 5 different input boxes and then retrieve that data upon loading of the input boxes and in a different page which would be the actual content of the website.
View 2 RepliesWe 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.

I have an Access Database (doesn't need to be Access, I can phpAdmin or mysql, whatever will work) that has a list of names. I want the user to open a Flash form and have the names load up into seperate input boxes for each name. The user can then change the names, move them, whatever, and then save the record. I want it to just overwrite the record. I donlt want create a new record. I cannot, for the life of me, figure this out. I have tried to find some tutorials but nothing makes sense. Is ASP a good way to go? I have been struggling with this for a week now.
View 3 RepliesI currently have a Flash app that gets populated by parsing data from an external XML file. However, I need to get the XML data into a (JSP) session and can't neccesarily have an external XML file--any suggestions? Can I put the XML string into a hidden input field in a form on the HTML? Can Flash communicate with that HTML? Or are one of the below methods recommended:
* FlashVars
* Flash Remoting
* Web services
* JavaScript - call JS function
* fscommand
* ExternalInterface
I have a swf which it receives it's content from xml files. It displayes jpg's and mp3's by getting their paths from xmls. (also I must note that these jpegs and mp3s are uploaded from an asp.net form)
My problem is some jpgs are not being displayed & some mp3s are not played at macintoshs. I've tested with almost all mac browsers and flash plug-ins. It's all same. While some files are being displayed some do not. I see blank the area where the jpgs should be shown.
I have a project where I need to use XML to dynamically load PNG and GIF files not just JPEGs. I have found forums and information from 2004 of users complaining about the capability not being available but since then we now have Flash 8.
View 2 RepliesI started to develop my first flash web site. I use to import pictures into the stage, so far I only use
jpegs. I am wondering, after I will have finished my fla and export to swf, will these source picture still be useful when I will upload the site to my ftp? Or will they be part of the swf?
Is it possible to make such a thing: When Button_btn is clicked (onRelease), var( var Name:String = new String("Flash MX|) ) is send to file (File.txt) and saved there.

View 1 RepliesI am working on a page the allows the user, once logged in,to upload information and a picture. The picture is saved as his/her username, and if they upload a different picture, the old one is still displayed unless they leave the site and come back 10+ minutes later.I tried the HTML no-cahce headers and they don't even help load a new (up-to-date) version of the main movie.This should have an easy solution, that Adobe should have
addressed if they expect flash to be capable of being a dynamic site with user interactivity.
I'm updating a flash player some other guys built, it's in good shape but the functionality that my client wants me to add seemed easy at first but turned into a *nice* little puzzle. What I'm trying to do is a "reverse" xml load. Reverse because the way I've done it is have flash load an xml and parse it within the swf. But this one is the reverse of that. Basically I have multiple swfs that need to be dynamically populated by one xml file. Each swf (the same .swf) needs different text and images. I can see trying to do it a number of ways but their all leading to dark tunnels I don't know if I can get out of.

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]
