All the web services tutorials I have reviewed always demonstrate how to setup the WebServicesConnector and bound to other input components on the stage (like the textinput component). I want to bind from a variable value in my Flash movie (ie; _level0.set_zone ) to somewheres in my WebServicesConnector. How can I set this up within my binding bound to value field?
View 4 RepliesI'm using the XML Connector to bind information to a List Component. Everything binds okay but when I run the MC I only get one item of information. The object I'm binding from the XML is called "Location" and there are a total of 5 listed in the XML. The five are Los Angeles, Seattle... The only one being displayed is Los Angeles. What do I need to do get the other 4 locations to display in the list?

View 3 RepliesI have a Flash Web site for a small literary journal and am trying to switch over to my hosting service's mailing list manager for sending out newsletters. I see the HTML code for setting this up (available from my host), but do not know how to get it to work in my Flash site. (I did not build the site and know very little about Flash...I'm learning as I go in order to do updates.) It looks like the site currenly links to a PHP file to allow for sign ups to our newsletter. Can anyone tell me h how to get the HTML code to work on my site?
View 2 RepliesI have a DataGrid bound to an XMLConnector and XMLDataSet. The XML data loads fine into the components. However, I cannot get the value of the selected index using: my_datagrid.selectedIndex
The call works fine if you use addItem to populate the grid.
Is there an issue being that the datagrid.selectedIndex parameter is bound to the XML components?

View 1 Repliesusing kirupa's tutorial " Connecting to a Web Service using Flash" i have added Flash Builder's library into my flash project. I am using HTTPService class of Flex in my flash project. If I repeat this process in separate blank as3 file, its works perfectly fine. But when I only add the flex library in my working flash project, it stops working. No error, no warning. I am really confused. Where should i start troubleshooting? Just adding the library starts the problem, but when I add this in a new as3 flash file, it works fine. All settings are same in both files.

I am working on the contact form for a website that is done entirely in flash. The following is the code I have for sending the variables to the emailForm.php script that I created. The only problem I'm having is that everytime you send the contact information, a new web browser window opens up (it opens the php file in the web browser). I'm testing this on my local server and it works great, except for the fact that everytime I send it, I dont want a new browser window opening up.

I'd like to create a website that displays a swf file. Is there a way I can make it so that the content of the .swf file comes from session variables (probably coldfusion). So, if someone types in their name, I want to save their name to the database & then later display their name in the swf file.

I created a Java REST service using Jersey. I use three of the HTTP "verbs" GET, POST and DELETE. I want to create several prototype front ends for the service. After much research, a lot dating to 2008 and 2009, I have been unable to find anything remotely simple.My three options are:
1) resthttpservice. This project hasn't been updated in a year. The only activity are one off suggestions that individual users have implemented.URL...
2) Create an AIR application. This isn't unfeasible.
3) Writing my own socket level code but there is a security restriction with flash players and I need to implement a policy server.
I have already read the question posted about asking whether using Flex for REST services were worth it. That information is old as well. I want to introduce REST services to my company but Flex's limited support for HTTP PUT and DELETE are discouraging. My service also uses the Accept header to determine if JSON or XML will be returned to the client. I can't seem to change HTTP headers without doing socket programming.Is there an easy way to use Flex 4 with RESTful services that uses PUT/DELETE and the Accept HTTP header?

When a selection is chosen in the combobox I need to add the value returned from the combobox to the variable catvar, add this variable to the LoadVars object and run the script again. It seems to set c.catvar initially but when I use the 'sendAndLoad command the second time c.catvar isn't included. Is it possible to add variables to a LoadVars object created
on frame 1 from frame 61?

Im having a bit of trouble integrating dynamic variables pulled from a databse using an ASP script with a flash movie.
Background:
I need to send variables stored in a ms sql db to a flash movie to display several values.
The dyanmic element comes in because i am using an ID to select the values from the db e.g id1 = joe bloggs id2 = paul smith
etc
When i am hardcoding the id in the asp script the variables are sent to the flash movie no probs and they display correctly.
I am also printing the asp code on the page and that all displaying fine.
HOWEVER, the issue arises when i make the asp code dynamic and by that i mean I am using request.querystring to pull the id
from the URL - The print out of the asp code is still displaying the correct variables, BUT they are not being passed to the
flash movie at all - the placeholder is blank there isn't event an error!!.
Couple of things to note -
- if you change the id bit of the url in the dynamic script to the printed asp code changes
- THE FLASH MOVIE IS IDENTIAL in both scenarios
- all variable names have remained the same
- it is NOT a location of file issue as we have tested the dynamic code files In another folder and no joy
- we are not using any other file includes or asp code in any of the page - all other code has been stripped out
THE ISSUE WE HAVE IS THAT THE PRINTED VARIABLES ARE NOT BEING PASSED TO THE FLASH MOBIE in scenario 2 where the asp code is looking for the participant id dynamically (i.e from the URL)
i am using loadvars to load url encoded data from a php file.
when i trace the output it shows that the variables have been retrived successfully.
now i need to use the values by assingning then to a variable. i cant seem to get this going
i am using flash 8 with as2.
myVars.onLoad = function (success) {
if (success) {
trace (" variables loaded ");
ad1id.text = myVars.ad1id;
[Code].....
is the above method used for assigning the variables correct.
I have a standalone flash app that needs to get user inputand send it to a remote server / database. When I use the methodbelow, a browser window opens which I don't want to happen - I wantthe data to be sent but not display the page.

I've had a site running for a few months that takes fourinput text boxes (name, e-mail, subject and message) and posts thevalues to an ASP page which composes an e-mail with a CDO.Messagecommand. For some reason (nothing has been changed in the files or onthe server), it stopped working and I've traced it down to Flashpassing Input Text Box Formatting information along WITH theariable.Can anyone explain what's happened and how to correct it?For example, in my form I've set all the name, e-mail andmessage to static text and let the Subject variable be passed andin the e-mail subject line, I get this:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P
ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><FONT FACE="American Typewriter" SIZE="12"

I have a flash8 object embedded in a VB.net form. I use GetVariable and SetVariable from VB to get and set variables in the flash movie. This works great until you try to do a GetVariable on a variable in the movie that hasn't been defined. I would expect it to return 'undefined' or 'null', but instead my VB app becomes stuck, seemingly waiting for the GetVariable response... I tried to do a TypeOf check to see if a null is returned, but no luck with that either.
