IDE :: Transferring Xml Data To Swf Across Domains?
Jun 21, 2009
I just recently created a news ticker using the tutorial on Kirupa; however, I have not been successful at getting my xml data to show up on the news ticker. I have my xml file stored on and my website will be stored on Savannah State University's server. I do not want to have my xml file on the same domain as my website because it will be on my school's server and they don't allow access to their server. I want to be able to update the news ticker freely.

How I should go about coming up with a program in action script 3 that can transfer data keyed in one swf file to another. Basically all I want is to key in a name in the 'y.swf' file when it plays in the browser, and when I click on submit another swf (z.swf)opens in the browser saying 'You keyed in '***'. The value keyed in the 'y.swf' file should be tranfered and stored as a variable in 'z.swf'.

All Im trying to do is post firstname, lastname and emailaddress from a form inside my swf to a php file and then get that php file to return a result back to my swf.
First of all i tried using external interface to handle this because the server its going to run on doesnt support PHP.
I had the SWFgrab the data from the text fields, pass the data to JS through external interface, then the JS would use jquery AJAX to execute the php file, then the JS would grab the results from the AJAXd div, then pass the data back through to the SWF. It was a bit of a circle jerk but it worked.
However, the PHP script that needs to be executed in a different domain as the SWF. I forgot that this would cause an issue. I then tried to setup AJAX crossdomain policies, but this is going to be a reasonably high traffic site and i felt that the proxy options that i found were kind of slow.
I realised that what id been doing so far was probably over complicated anyway. So, i went back to basics and thought id try using the URLLoader to load in the php file as a string. I setup a crossdomain.xml file on my server that will be hosting the PHP and used the loader to grab the PHP file.
This works fine, all the PHP does is echo out 3 comma separated values which i then split into an array and use in my SWF. I get the values no problem. However, my status bar in firefox keeps saying that its still transferring.
Ive tried telling the PHP script to 'exit();' after its echo'd out my results. Ive tried telling the URLoader to .close(); when its grabbed the data, neither of which stop it from transferring. Im also using the web debugging proxy 'Charles' and that says that the connection opened and closed successfully, but firefox still says that its transferring.[code]...

I am using the loadVariable method of the MovieClip class to load some data. I have a question about the "transfering data from domain" message I see at the bottom of firefox for a page that has this swf loaded in. The load variables call obviously complete very quickly (the output is just h=1&d=1, or something as short as that) but the transfering data remains the entire time the page is in the browser (like half an hour later, etc).

I am testing a locally run SWF (in debug standalone player) that tries to load data from a remote URL using URLLoader class. I have enabled useNetwork flag in the SWF. As I said, the SWF is running in standalone player, it is not embedded in any page in any browser.As I understand, it still cannot load any external non-visual resource, if the site it tries to load from does not have a crossdomain.xml file, or if that file does not include the domain hosting my SWF. Correct?

I've written an app that parses Atom and RSS feeds from a few popular sites, and reacts to this data. Everything works fine when I run the .swf locally, but fails when uploaded. Is there a security setting I should be aware of?

I am trying to create a login system where a user would be able to login inside of one flash game on say, [URL], and then that same login data would be preserved for all the games on [URL] and also the games on [URL] and [URL] I am new to shared objects in flash so if anybody knows of a way to do this in either php, as3, html, js (or a mixture of all) then that would be great.
(PS. I would prefer not to use a method that requires a javascript bridge to retrieve cookies as this is impossible for games that are played on game-portal sites where only a swf file is used)

I am trying to get my flash file to load data from multiple sources/domains. It works perfectly in the development environment, but as soon as you launch the swf locally or online, it doesn't load the xml data from external domains.

I have two variables:
var defaultMainHexidec:Number = 0xFFFFFF;
var mainHexidec:Number;
If a value isn't assigned to mainHexidec I assign the default value as follows:
mainHexidec = defaultMainHexidec;
trace("mainHexidec = " + mainHexidec);
The trace returns the same value as the value returned when tracing the defualt value. But if I use mainHexidec as the fill for a rectangle, the color is black while the default value is white (or any other color). If I set the color using the default variable the fill appears correctly. If I set the number using the number traced in either defaultMainHexidec or mainHexidec (it traces the same number) the color is correct.

I haven't started work in this yet, however I intend to and would like to know the best method.There will be two screens,each powered by a separate machine.I want to be able to move the image off one screen and it appear on the other (machine 2).The image will be captured from a webcam on machine 1.The first idea I had was convert the image to a string, pass the string to the flash file on machine two, decode and display.Is this possible, or is there built in function in flash or as3 that would would recommend, or even a different method?

I have function that's used to transfer elements from one vector to another. The problem is that I need to use this function to transfer data from multiple pairs of vector with each pair having a different data type. I tried this but it came up with an error.
ActionScript Code:
function addToVector(dataType:Class, vect:Vector.<dataType>,
baseVect:Vector.<dataType>):void {
for (var i:int = 0, l:int = vect.length; i < l; i++)
baseVect.push(vect[i]);
}
I've also tried this, but then flex says it doesn't recognize the vector class.
ActionScript Code:
function addToVector(vect:Vector.<*>, baseVect:Vector.<*>):void {
for (var i:int = 0, l:int = vect.length; i < l; i++)
baseVect.push(vect[i]);
}
This failed too
ActionScript Code:
function addToVector(vect:Vector.<Object>, baseVect:Vector.<Object>):void {
for (var i:int = 0, l:int = vect.length; i < l; i++)
baseVect.push(vect[i]);
}

I have a .fla on my Mac that I created in Flash cs5. I saved it as a cs4 file and sent it to a friend who has a Windows machine.
I have a symbol linked to an AS class which has symbols inside of it which have instance names. The constructor of the class refers to these instance names. When I compile, everything works as expected. When my friend compiles, he gets compiler errors telling him that the instances mentioned above are undefined.
Checked to make sure that we had the same source path Made sure that the symbol in the Flash IDE has the correct linkage Tried compiling the .fla with cs4 on my machine. It works, which is what makes me think it's a Mac/Windows issue.

transferring values from one class to another via dispatchEvent.
main.fla
code/main.as (Doc class)
code/game/card.as
code/game/board.as
I can communicate an event between any of them fine using a dispatchEvent and addEventListener, and I can get values from the card & board actionscript files into main.as using e.target.*
However for some reason I just cannot get a value to send from main.as to the card or board classes using this same method. And I'm literally stumped as to why.

I'm using flashDevelop for an avatar creation engine. I have a movieclip(class) called body_view which is structures like this : body_view -> 10 visual body components -> each component needs to have a jpeg loaded Then there is a body_model class which is extended from the body_view class and is responsible for all loads/saves/interactions now body_model class is as follows: body_models -> variables holding (values) -> populateView (function)
Now through the populateView function I need to populate the components of body_view but the issue is if I load a jpeg/swf on a function it comes on stage. I do not want it on stage I want it in its perticular place in the body_view

Is there a standard way to send variables through a banner ad? A client wants a banner that lets the user enter his mobile number, then receives a code by sms, and then enters the code into the banner. If the code then validates, the user is sent to a page with a login form with the phone number and code filled in. It must be possible to add the phone number and code as parameters to the clickTag somehow? I found that Adform supports using ";cppar=1&" and then variable=value pairs, but is this a standard, or a special feature of Adform?

I have a client that I am going live with so I am transferring their website from my web server to their web server. Using Zend AMF, I am calling a database that reads perfectly when I point to it from my server but it doesn't work when I call the database from the client's server. In both instances, I am pointing to the same absolute path to my boot strap (on my web server). I don't understand what the difference would be.

I have a SWF that contacts a php script all on the same domain. In the first case both are hosted behind the same domain and communicate with no problem. Everything is working great.However when I take the same markup that embeds the SWF and paste it on another site (using a full qualified path for the swf in both the locally hosted and remotely hosted code), the SWF no longer communicates with the php script I wrote. I added a cross domain file to my site which looks like this.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy
SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

B.swf - located on siteb.com which loads some files from sitec.com
crossdomain.xml

I have placed the crossdomain.xml (above) file on each domain root but i still get a Security Error from sandbox when accessing A.swf
securityErrorHandler: [SecurityErrorEvent type="securityError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: B.swf cannot load data from sitec.com"]

I am working on a project that uses SharedObject and I have a question. I've made a button that downloads a flash screensaver and at the same time also creates a SharedObject which stores a specific id for each screensaver being downloaded. When later the screensaver is installed and run, it should get the SharedObject and read the id from it. When tested locally it works perfect since both the buttons´ and the screensavers´Sharedobject are stored in the same localPath. But when the button is online and the screensaver is local the SharedObject paths don't match.
Is there a way to solve this and make the local screensaver swf read the SharedObject from the same path as the online download button has stored it's SharedObject in?
This is the relevant code in both my swfs:
var _mySo:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("name", "/");
If this won't work, does anybody have another solution to my remote to local screensaver thingy??

My client's site exists on both http:// and http://www. and I have a flash navigation system on the site. All links are absolute values and work fine from the www subdomain but do not seem to work from the http:// domain. It seems strange to me as the links are absolute paths...

So I have an SWF8 file as a player on one domain (unsecure). It loads and plays an SWF8 from another (secure) domain. So far so good. Trouble is, I need the player to send variables to the files it's playing so that links in that SWF will, well, link. I also need the player to receive some movie control commands in return. There must be a rule or two I'm violating, because while the file plays, anything that depends on a variable is just dead.
A note: Both files started out as SWF6. I understand I can only do what I'm trying to with SWF8, so I went through the code and fixed the case sensitive issues and did the conversion.

I have a.swf, which is the SWF file for my main application, and it's trying to load in b.swf, which contains some additional resources as well as some Actionscript. a.swf lives on sub1.domain.com and b.swf lives on sub2.domain.com (both on the same domain, just different subdomains.) In a.swf, I've loaded the crossdomain.xml from domain.com and also added the following code into both a.swf and b.swf:
Security.allowDomain("*");
Security.allowInsecureDomain("*");
Do I need to load crossdomain.xml in b.swf as well to prevent a security error or is having allowDomain/allowInsecureDomain enough?
