Variables Do Not Load In Right Format
Apr 5, 2007
I am loading variables from a txt file. After loading in Flash, the format of the variables is weird.
My text file looks something like this:
var1=15&var2=10&var3=this is a test&var4=etc
It has been created in notepad.
When I load the variables with the command loadVariablesNum("variables.txt",0); there is a problem with var1 and var2. These are not considered as integers but as text and have the values "15" instead of 15 and "10" instead of 10.

How can i format a string with supplied variables in AS3?
[Code]...
so in the string above, i would like myString to display "One year consists of 12 consecutive Months", but i'm new to AS3 and do not know how to properly format a string. i'm sure that i'll have to cast the number variable into a string, string(myNumber), but i don't know if casting a movie clip variable to a string, string(myMovieClip), will return the name of the movie clip or produce an error. i'm willing to bet on the later.

I have an empty SWF that's sole purpose is to call loadMovieNum and start the project. Each loaded movie has a few variables defined within them - unique to those loaded SWFs. Instead of declaring all the variables in each SWF can I declare all of them in one place, in the first frame of the empty loader it all starts from? I'm thinking I can then declare a variable which each loaded movie can increment as needed for me.

I'm writing code that takes data from mysql that's processed by a PHP script. It's actually a bit bizarre, at least to me. Anyway, here's some basic AS3 code that's moving toward what I want to do:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var urlRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("receive.php");
urlRequest.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;[code]....
For some reason, the statement "trace(evt.target.data);" produces a whole pile of garbled text before the actual stuff that it's supposed to show Because of problem #1, I've had to include a throwaway variable at the beginning, otherwise the first variable I try to pass into AS3 comes back as undefined. This causes errors when I run my flash movie in the IDE, but when I run it from the browser it doesn't seem to have any effect.But this is the strangest thing of all whenever I make any changes to the database (and subsequently try to load data from different variables), the new variables come back as undefined. For example, let's say that I add another entry to the database, and decide to load students 2, 3, and 4 instead of 1, 2, and 3. When I do that, any new data I've added comes back as undefined, even though when I view the PHP output in my browser, it looks just fine.
And now for the REALLY bizarre part: I'll copy that output, paste it into my PHP script as an echo statement, comment everything else out, and my flash movie runs fine. Even though the output from the PHP script is exactly the same, it gives me errors.

I am trying to load variables from a text file, and have them available from then onwards in the movie, globally so to speak.
While I can read the variable values in a loader function which executes when the text file is loaded, I don't seem to be able to keep those variables available afterwards.

A few days ago I manage to modify a code I get from a post here. The file was from tommywizbang[URL]It works fine, but at the end I have the idea of use HTML format to load images on the text block. The idea works fine with static text, but in this code is not working and I'm not sure if it is because of the original AS2...

I want to make a textinput where a person can type in a price. I used "restrict" to only allow numbers and decimal. But the person can type in several decimals and create numbers like 11.1.1.1 or 11...11 or 1.11111
i want to restrict the entry to only one use of a decimal and only two numbers after the decimal.
any other way to format a textinput to a currency format?

I have a flash page flipping book that I bought at activeden. It uses an XML file to load in the images of the book to flip through. I have created a PHP file that takes an event ID and creates a custom XML file for flash. How do I have flash load an xml file like this? Instead of passing:
_xmlLoader.loadXml("setup.xml");
I would like to pass:
_xmlLoader.loadXml("setup.php?id=" + eid);
That code doesn't seem to be working for me though.

What I'm trying to do is, create a button in Flash, with a dynamic text box, where I name the first one "botao1", the second one "botao2" and so on.
I managed to get the text I wanted into the text box by using an external text file (notepad) with the following code:
Code:
menu1=Text
whereas "Texto" would be the text appearing inside that dynamic text box.
I also managed to do the same in an ASP page using the following code:
Code:
response.Write(&menu1=Texto
whereas "Texto" would also be the text appearing inside the dynamic text boss, and it worked this way.
Now, what I'm trying to do is the following:
I have a webpage with a menu in the Header. I have the menus in a database and I'd like my Flash to access that database and write the all the menu names inside the dynamic text boxes.
My code in Flash is this:
Code:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
botao1.html=true;

I need to retrieve data from a text file, sort it with a new added score, and then turn the whole data back into a string and save it back into the text file.
I have worked on mini .swf files and php files, and I can seperately:
- retrieve data from a text file to Flash
- do the sorting in Flash from a string coming from a text file
- send a string to a php file and save it on a text file
But I cannot seem to do the three at the same time! Here is my [code]...

So I have used this code:

The problem is that I want to use it at the preloader frame, and display it same time when flash file is loading. But it won't work, it loads when the file has fully loaded, and then its too late.I know that I could use another swf to load this swf and display it then, but its not what I want.

I am developing a flash board game which entails moving a piece around a board as a result of throwing a dice (the person will either move the dice themselves or it will move according to the outcome of the throw). When they land on particular squares I am going to have a random question (this is going to be a loaded SWF) appear that will have a multiple choice questions.Can I save the result of 'multiple choice question' within the main movie / separate movie and then use this variable ?

How can I use the same code to all the buttons so I can attach the mcextra and load diferent jpeg images? I guess I`ll have to set a variable calling the jpeg, isn`t?

I know Flash applications cannot store data locally for security reasons, however, Macromedia has addressed this issue:
[URL]
But I don't understand that at all...
So, probably using what that link says, what's the best (easiest on the user) way to store data to a consenting user's computer? I don't mind if it has a prompt for permission, but it should not rely on too much software that nobody has (java and shockwave seem ok). The goal would be to store data across sessions, so that it would remain available if one returned to the application after closing it and going offline.
This would be useful for saving a character's HP, experience, and location variables in a game for example... possibly ending up with a .txt file that looks like:
name: Aesir
level: 2
exp: 50
zone: Cave of the Poo
x coordinate: 10
y coordinate: 30
gold: 5
Or something simple like that.
