Does anyone know how to output to a text file. I've got a ticket machine and when a button is pressed at the final step i want it to output a boolean variable to a text file, preferably to the desktop this is a simple .swf which i have created.
View 4 RepliesI'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?
View 5 RepliesI'm attempting to create a template with one simple change to the file output location. I need the .swf file to placed in a subfolder, i.e. "output/filename.swf" Instead of the default "filename.swf"My problem is, if I edit the output file name field in publish settings in any way, the export file name is now locked, meaning if i have used my new template to create 3 fla files, they will all be named the same thing and replace one another in the output folder i've created. (trying to eliminate the need to open the publish settings menu here)I was hoping there was a variable like ${filename} or something i could use, but cannot find something like that.
View 1 RepliesI managed to show the output of a shell command in TextArea of flex by calling following php file via HTTPService and then using the dataprovider attribute of TextArea to show the returned output.
<?php
$output = shell_exec('ls -l');
return $output
?>
Now i have a C file which prints some lines (by using printf command of C) when i run it in shell using
./myCfile
But following php code seems to not return anything as my TextArea remains empty
<?php
$output = shell_exec('./myCfile');
return $output
?>
I am traying to make some sort of a simple forum in flash. Problem occurs when I want to output contents of flash variable to file.
For example: I have inputText = "hello world how are you" variable. How can I output this inputText to an text.txt file, so that in text.txt will bi written "hello world how are you".
How do you send the output of a function to a dynamic text field on the stage instead of the output panel?I have used trace(); but that just sends the value to the output panel.
View 3 RepliesI have an application that writes traces with a timestamp when certain items are clicked or accessed. I need to write these to a text log file so that they can be accessed remotely.. The device the app runs on doesn't have a web server and doesn't run the flash debug player, os is xp. How can I send these traces to a text file? I noticed Arthropod writes to an html file, but I need to do this automatically without interaction.

View 8 Repliesyou have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Actionscript Code:
//function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void { var so:Object = Object(SharedObject.getLocal(record)); so.data.record = record;so.data.field = field; so.data.now
[code]....
Everything looks in order, all the variables are correct, the input text box is set to input - it just wont let you write in it. I even went into a blank project, created a rudimentary setup, with an input text box one frame and a button, with the simple script:
Actionscript Code:
outputName=inputName;
Setup a button that moved to the frame with the designated output dynamic text box, tested it, it worked. So I tried moving the input box to the program - will not work.... It does the same thing, cannot type in it. I tried moving the text box to a different frame, used the simpler script to output, made no difference.
I have the following code which shows the Flash Player Information in OUTPUT WINDOW. How can I view the same on FlashInfo (Dynamic Text Box) Texbox on stage?

Is there any way I can embed HTML in flash? I know I can do this with text boxes but is there any other way I can do it? If not I know theres is the load feature where I can load text from a text file. With the html text box editing, Can i link that to the text file?. As in when you edit the text box with html could i have the textbox's instance name equal to the text file? With this my issue is with the <a href> in one textbox, I would like when i click those it open another text file in a different text box.
Clarification: I have two text boxes in my flash file.One has current products. And the other is the description of the product they select. I would like a way to edit and change the products in the first text box without having to keep using the FLA file. Which is why i am using this code
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {trace(e.target.data);}
myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("myText.txt"));
The contents of myText.txt are <a href=(not sure what to put here)> Product 1 </a> But all that does is put it in the text output section in flash.It does not show it in flash. I need help getting it to show up in a text box.That is the first part But the main problem is im not sure how to code the a href correctly so that when i click it, another text file opens in the second text box.So that when a user clicks on a product ,like "Product 1" It opens the correct description text file in the second text box.
How can I generate a swf file output from another swf file?
View 5 RepliesI am working on a new flash project that allows the user to prepare artwork using the .swf flash file and allows them to overlay hypertext links into their artwork. The output of this custom content is needed to be saved as a .swf file itself, so that it can be used independantly. The new .swf file would essentially just be a single frame with the interactive artwork on
View 3 RepliesI was wondering if you could take the text in your output box and put that into a dynamic text box. I am loading and taking data from an xml file which looks like this:

I am trying to get my output into a dynamic text box or any textbox.
A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'

I was wondering if it was possible to save the contents of the output window to a separate txt file like notepad. I'm doing a project that involves testing the execution speed of flash by putting more and more objects on the screen as it plays and I need it to save the result when it freezes up or crashes.
View 6 RepliesI'm developing a small flash application which needs to generate a DXF file as an output. The flash app has other elements which the user can manipulate, eventually producing a simple 2D image. I need this image to be outputted for use with CAD software. I've found a few solutions which involve using PHP to create a PDF file from the SWF.
I can then use a file converter program to convert from PDF to DXF. But ideally I'd like to do it all within the SWF, or at least eliminate the file conversion step.

View 1 Repliesoutputting a .png sequence, what is the best way? I've had no problem when my animation is in the root timeline. I use the export Movie command and it gives me what I want. But when I have a movie clip, with animation inside of it, and I output a .png sequence in the same way, it doesn't output the sequence of animation from inside the movie ciip, it just gives me a still frame of the symbol on all 35 frames. Is there a better way to export it when the animation is inside of a symbol??

View 3 RepliesI have an xml file that includes image paths.I'd like to read that image path from the xml and display theimage (a jpg or gif) on the stage.However, when I trace image_path from my xml file, the resultseems to knock off the "http:" part of the node.Also, when I load the image, the loader ends up being null(maybe this is because I didn't set up an event handler for it).
View 1 RepliesI have a C executable (named myprogram). When I run it by ./myprogram I get some output statements on the standard output of my Linux shell. I used run.php to get access to whatever is being printed to the standard output:
#run.php
<?php
$output = shell_exec('./myprogram');
echo $output;
?>
Then I called an HTTPService having id="service" to access this run.php file and I also set the text attribute of a TextArea to {service.lastResult}. When I run my Flex app, the interface kind of halts for a moment and then the TextArea displays all the 20 lines at once. But if program is run from Linux shell they appear one by one. Is there a way by which I can display a line as soon as it gets printed to standard output? This will then make the TextArea show the output in real time.
Or is Flex unable to do this? Rather how can a PHP program achieve such effect i.e. showing, whatever is being printed on standard output, concurrently in the browser in real time? Myprogram outputs 20 lines each after some microseconds. I want only the first line of standard output to appear in TextArea of Flex or in the browser (but in real time) while the program may then continue running the program.
I am looking for a script that will go through ~75,000 SWF files that we have, will decompile each and find all the Shapes/Elements which size is greater than x.The output should look smthng like:SWF Filename "SWF Path" "SWF overall Size" "Element Name" "Element Size".Does anybody know of a software that might be able to handle that task?How do decompile scripts work ? would it be easy to write something to handle the above task?
