JavaScript :: Passing Alphanumeric Value To URL QueryString Not Working
Feb 9, 2012
I am having a flash application where I want to send parameters to it via the javascript from a defaul.aspx page. I have a parameter called Id where it can accept alphanumeric values. The query string in the url works fine if I enter just numbers for the Id, and takes me to the specific page related to that id , but if I enter a combination of numbers and characters like 001A , it does not work.
This is the code I used
<script type="text/javascript">
function getQueryVariable(variable) {
var query = window.location.search.substring(1);
var vars = query.split("&");
for (var i=0; i<vars.length; i++) {
[Code] .....
And then passed the flashvars into swfobject.embedSWF. I also don't want to change anything in my mxml files in flash side.
I have a problem with flashvars , when I read the url from browser if I have assigned just numbers to Id (my paramter in url) ,everything works fine, but if my id includes character, then it does not work , I don't want to change anything in flash side in mxml files, I want to do it with javascript
here is my code
<script type="text/javascript"> function getQueryVariable(variable) {
I'm unclear on the proper format for passing a QueryString Value using FlashVars, this is what I'm trying <param name="FlashVars" value="part=<%= Request.QueryString["part"] %>" /> but this causes a parse/encode error and the swf doesnt load, same if I use single quotes ie <param name="FlashVars" value="part=<%= Request.QueryString['part'] %>" />
I have a client that needs a flash intro that will be accessed through a link in an email campaign. When the user clicks the link in their email, it sends them to this flash intro, but also sends a querystring with it. I need the flash file (v5) to read the querystring, use it during the movie, and then pass it on to an asp page when the intro is done playing.What is the best method to do this?
But when pressed, i get a querystring longer than my arm : [URL] and a whole lot of other variables and functions... i end up getting a Request-URI too large.How come I pass all these different variables to the query string when I just ask for 2?
Is it possible to pass file names from a running Flash application, which only purpose is to enable multiple-file-selection, to a JavaScript application which handles upload of all files to the server?I have examined various Flash upload solutions (like SWFUpload, Uploadify, etc.) and none of them meets my needs. I want an easy to implement solution (like Uploadify) which also lets me specify various parts of the HTTP request.
The reason I need this is because my upload form uses session cookies (for user authentication) and an CSRF token both passed to the server when uploading files.Is it technically possible to pass filenames (+ paths) to a JavaScript application which then handles the upload?
I have a project that involves taking user input from a keyboard/numeric keypad. The script I wrote detects when the user actually enters a numeral in the text area, and replaces it with step-by-step with a series of letters and numbers in a similar fashion to keypad input on a phone. Everyone else's solution assumes that the user is A.) On an actual mobile device, and B.) That the LAST character is the one that should be replaced in the series.
Whereas, in my case, the user can use standard keyboard/numeric keypad input. Moreover, the caret should be able to move to any arbitrary position within a given string of text, and not just to the end of that string. My script works for the most part, except for some reason, the caret advances on its own without me/the user telling it to, and from what I can see, there's nothing in the code to allow for this:
Code: var _1:String = "1@._-"; var _2:String = "2abc"; var _3:String = "3def"; var _4:String = "4ghi"; var _5:String = "5jkl"; [Code] .....
Lastly; my code does not account for when a user presses a DIFFERENT number than the one that they are currently pressing--in which case the caret should naturally advance automatically to allow for a new numeral to be inserted. My example is attached.
I have an array which holds objects. The objects have properties called cat and title. The cat property can hold values like: Cat 1 Cat 2 Cat 3
And the title property can hold values: Title 1 Title 2 Title 3
So that you wind up with something that looks like Cat 1 Title 1
Cat 1 Title 2
Cat 2 Title 3 etc.
Now, I want to sort these, but we all know that Array.sortOn(["cat", "title"]) will produce results like: Cat 1 Cat 10 Cat 11 Cat 2 Cat 3
What's the most efficient method of sorting these properly (so the number component sorts like a number and not like a string)? I can request users pad their entries (yes, other people will be entering this data), but that's both a little bit ugly and not very user friendly.
I'm trying to setup a RegexpValidator that only accepts a string of alphanumeric characters between 6-30 characters long and requires one number. I'm new to Regular Expressions and everything I've tried seems to keep returning an invalid ValidationRsultEvent.[code]
Is there a way that I can pass the value of app: or appstorage: to a javascript file which has been included via URLRequest? I have a web application with an HTML5 video player, and I've been asked to get it to work as an AIR app. So far so good, except that there is a bug in jPlayer that requires you to use absolute file paths for media if you're using flash fallback. I need to get the file path of the app: or appstorage: directory on a users machine, and pass that to javascript so that the player can find my videos.
I m using AS2.0 which interacts with the JSP to get three values using a JS call.After that from the AS i m trying to call a servlet by passing these values but the values are coming as NULL or undefined.
I have a simple standalone application written in Visual Basic that I'm porting to a browser based application using PHP/javascript. The original VB application has some simple embedded flash games with token and point counters. The token and point values are being passed as variables between the application and the game.
I'm trying to achieve the same effect in my PHP port without modifying the actionscript code( using the variables in actionscript that already exist). Below is Visual Basic code that's loading a value from a database and posting that value to flash using FlashVars:
I am working on a break through technology which brings together Audio DSP, Embedded, C/C++ and Javascript/AS3. I am in charge of getting the javascript/as3 done .
I need to send Arrays to and fro Javascript / Actionscript 3.I tried the javascript/as gateway from http://osflash.org/flashjs. It's done in actionscript 2 and I might have to migrate it to as3. I am not sure how long it would take.And I tried the ExternalInterface class in AS3. But it seems only strings can be passed using the addCallBack() and call() methods. Moreover I was not able to reslove the security issues when the flash player tried to communicate with the javascript.
Passing a JavaScript array to Flash?I want to pass an Array from JavaScript to a Flash movie. My goal is to create an Array of URLs to pass to Flash and once the Array is in Flash, I can access those URLs in the movie.I know how to send a variable to Flash using the "Embed" and "Object" tags using "FlashVars".
<PARAM name=FlashVars VALUE="song=song_URL">
but I want to somehow send and array, or maybe can I call a function that creates the Array I want to send?My reason is to have an HTML developer come back and change the Array values and that will change the Flash Array, so they don't have to edit the Flash movie.
My goal is to pass a variable from JavaScript to ActionScript in my swf file. I am using Flash CS3 and AS3. Currently all I want is my test to work where I mouseover a text link and a function is called with a passed variable in my swf file.
Here is my code: // test.html - Cropped out the excess code <html><head> <script type="text/javascript"> function myMovie(movieName) { [Code] .....
ExternalInterface.addCallback("sendToActionScript",fromJS); only once, or inside of my function onEnterFrame(event:Event) loop? I tried both, but since I can't get it to work I don't know which one is the proper one.
i have developed a flash website, just user interface, now i have a contact form in my swf file . can anyone help me in embedding this swf file in html and getting values out of swf file on html page and printing on another html page, i just need help in getting values and out of swf file to html.
I have an HTML/JavaScript Adobe AIR app which needs to be listening for data coming in from an external process.I could have the AIR app itself invoked by the external process. If anyone knows how this could be done in such a way that AIR would then continue to listen for messages/events from the process which invoked it, then I would like to hear about it.Failing that, can I set up some kind of endpoint in AIR itself to accept data through?'ve experimented with a Native Process, and while having AIR launch the process allows it to read data in, the native process itself to be externally accessible, plus it must be able to write to STDOUT for Adobe AIR to receive.
i`m trying to send variables from this .swf on level2 of the main movie to another swf that loads onto a javascript popup. i`ve tried using the GET and POST methods with no success.the popup script, first layer:
1. I am working on a project in ASP and I am making queries to a SQL db that returns data back in the form of xml. I am not in control of the db or how it returns data.
2. I process the XML within the ASP page and then I also process the data from within flash. I am therefore making two database calls for one page view.
3. I am trying to figure out if I can in anyway, pass an XML list from the page to flash so that I am making only one database call. The site is heavily hit and I am practically doubling the server load. Basically, the only way I think that may be possible is through javascript but not sure where to begin.
I've made a XML based Mp3 player using Flash 8 and AS2. The player is working just fine, I mean playing song on previous and next button. Now I want to enlarge this and my idea is to list all the mp3s on a PhP page and allow user to listen to any song randomly. This means, user can click any song name and that song will start playing in the player.
My problem over here is; the song listing and the player will be on one single page and clicking on any song wont reload that page to play the selected song but just reload the content of the mp3 player.
I know this can be done in Javascript. My thought on this is: On clicking each song name, I need to call a JS function and pass to it the "ID" of the song. This JS function needs to pass "that ID" to the swf which will play the song.
Keeping aside the complexity involve in ActionScript to fetch the song name as per the passed ID, I need to know how to pass this ID from JS to AS
Our web application has a feature which uses Flash (AS3) to take photos using the user's web cam, then passes the resulting byte array to PHP where it is reconstructed and saved on the server. However, we need to be able to take this web application offline, and we have chosen Gears to do so. The user takes the app offline, performs his tasks, then when he's reconnected to the server, we "sync" the data back with our central database.
We don't have PHP to interact with Flash anymore, but we still need to allow users to take and save photos. We don't know how to save a JPG that Flash creates in a local database. Our hope was that we could save the byte array, a serialized string, or somehow actually persist the object itself, then pass it back to either PHP or Flash (and then PHP) to recreate the JPG. We have tried:
On a page I have a an iFrame and a swf, I've been trying to use ExternalInterface to pass values from the swf to the iFrame, anyone ever tried this and had any luck? I won't be able to post any code until tomorrow, will update then if needed.Here is a visualization of what I need to accomplish, perhaps if it can't be done the way I said someone will have a suggestion of another way to accomplish this.
My web application pass a javascript object to flex application using addCallback function. when the flex application is in modal dialog in safari browser, the object in the flex application is null and when I open the flex application just in a new window, the object is passed correctly. But, I need the showmodaldialog to show the flex application.
The flex code: ExternalInterface.addCallback( "handleEvent", handleEvent ); override public function handleEvent( event:Object ):Object { Alert.show(String(event)); .....
Is there an existing javascript library for relaying key press events in the browser (or certain divs) into flash? I am hoping there might be a library kind of like this one for mousewheel events?Something like this handles javascript keyboard shortcuts great. I suppose I could just listen for those events and pass the ones I want into flash?These are great examples, however, if flash has focus, then javascript keystrokes are lost. How can you ensure that all key events go through javascript?
I am creating a flash website with as storefinder.. There is an input text field in flash and a search button which when pressed will load a javascript function that uses the input text var.
i can call the function using this method - getURL("javascriptpenMap()", "", "POST");
but how can i pass it the variable from my input text field?
