I have been struggling with this all week now. I am using as3 and within my movie I have a dynamic text box that contains a score.I need this score to be written to a text file preferbly in an array that only stores the highest 5 scores.I then need values from the array to be read and displayed on another movie which will act as a high score table. e.g. I will have a dynamic text box in my high score move that will display the 1st value in the array, and then the 2nd etc.
writing/reading data to text files.Alternatively if anyone else can suggest another method for a high score table please let me know. I only need a basic high score table that runs on a users local machine as the app i am making is desined to run on individual users machines.
I've to make a form that's going to work on a local machine without internet during an event. I have a form i'm using for our website, but this one just sends emails.The data needs to be written to a file (Excel / XML ?) which we, after the event, tranfer to another computer and add the list of subscriptions in our company network.
I want a user running a Flash game on his machine (not from a server) to be able to save some game data locally.From what I've read, there still isn't any way to do this, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone knows a sneaky xml or php work around.
I have successfully written my XML from flash to the server using php. But now I need to have it write to a Windows server using either asp or asp.net. Below is my code for PHP.Have searched allot of places and found how to write text files and lines inside text files.But I use a URL variable to write my XML file name out with xml data I created in Flash as3.For simplicty I am using localhost... but really is set to my web domain.On the address line I pass: Example
I am trying to write one function to save all data but i am not sure how to change the name of each data value without writing them out one by one.[code]
I have an offline presentation for a client that needs to have a form submitted data saved local on the machine (kiosk) to be gathered later.I researched on google and found fscommand to write to a txt file but this no longer works and is sorta sloppy.
I am creating e-learning material that will be accessedonline by students. Is there anyway that Flash can write to adatabase to tell us how long the student was logged in for and how long there were on a page?
I have been trying to save data from a flash movie to an XML file and have failed to do so how is it possible? how can i for example save a text from a textbox / textarea to an XML file in an specific XML node by pressing a botton? although i am familiar with how to extract data saved in XML files and desplay it in a flash movie.
I've just been approached my current project needs to run from a CD and write data (bookmarking) to the hard drive. Been told the file will still launch from a html document and not AIR. Orginally had it built in AIR, no problem writing data. I remembered what I thought was a SharedObject but that does not sound right for writing out the data. Which is an xml file I am building from the student login.
Since I can't use AIR is there another function someone knows for writing a file to a location on the hard drive? Time is pressing on this one. I have to have an answer by morning.
This is an area of Flash I haven't experimented in, so I don't know where to start. Is it possible to run an SWF, and have Flash export variables externally, as the SWF is running? So for example, export an Array to XML? It doesn't need to be PHP, and stored serverside etc, just written locally on the computer would be fine.
So I have an html file with a swf in the center which loads pictures and text via XML. It works fine on my own computer but on the actual site it doesn't load the pictures or text it, in any browser.
I'm trying to debug a swf in Flash Professional CS5.5, by running the debug-> Debug Movie -> In Flash Professional. When I do I get teh Adobe Flash Player Security window. It says you are trying to connect to and the I.P. address of the server (e.g. 203.22.35.101). I've opened the settings and added that I.P. under Advanced->Trusted Location Settings... that doesn't help. btw: If I run -> Control -> Test Movie -> In Flash Professional it works fine, but then I can't debug.
I am making app that works as stand alone, do some calculations and sting formating. Also it need to save data localy, and be able to reload it when needed. I have read that Shared Objects do that but also have limitation. For example the data can be deleted without user doing it. I need the data to somehow persistend and been able to delete only by the user of the app. As extra exporting data for other user will be usefull, but is not requared.
I have a client that is running a 64 bit system. On my 32 bit system my Shared Object writes the data without a problem but theres hangs when the call is made to write the data. Any ideas how to go about solving this problem? I would think it would not matter if the system is 32 or 64.
is there anyway to store a file(an XML in this case) locally on a computer WITHOUT using a PHP server running on the computer. Im develpoing an application for both Mac OS and windows so it needs to be a solution that will work for both.
I am creating an application that takes a user's hand signature, input on the Blackberry playbook. When the JPEG is created, I would like to add Exif data such as the date/time to the JPEG. Does anyone know how to do this, or if it is possible?
I am writing an AIR application through which I want to open a native process 'wordpad.exe' and write data generated in the AIR application to a document.
The wordpad application opens with a blank document but it generates an error Error#2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:.text=Error #3128: Error while writing data to NativeProcess.standardInput.
I have my XML Data Displayer referring to an XML feed on the web, it works fine when I run it locally, however it doesn't work when I run it off my site.There's no missing files- since I'm referencing to an XML feed on the web.How can I solve this problem and display XML data from the web, on the web?
I need to save and load data to and from variables. I know how to read from text-files, but not how to write to them. The text-files should work as a "database" for the high-score in a game, I cant use php cause the computer running the game wont be online all the time.
I am wondering if it is possible to use random file access for reading and writing data to file in Actionscipt 3.0 similar to that what is in Visual Basic?
I have an menu for user to populate it. Then when the user finish, I would like to store his Order into an XML database. I do not know how to write to XML file in Flash.
I have a project in Flash Builder and I use Bulkloader to load some configuration files. When I run the project from Flash Builder or in a server, everything works as expected, but when I run the SWF from another location (for example "my documents"), the project can't load the XML.
I'm making a simple flash game as sort of a test, and I'd like to have save files by making flash write information to an xml file. Is there anyway to generate and edit an xml file using actionscript?
i load in xml file so i can read the data. i've figured out how to add, delete and modify data. but the problem is, is that even when i do that it only does it within flash it doesn't make the changes to the actual file.so i want someone to help me do this. so please help i've been at this for week and its time i ask you nice and incredibly smart people.
here is my file, its clean and organized as its something i whipped up for the sake of figuring this out.i found this, people say it allows you to save the xml data, which would work, if i have to delete a file i can do that, i know how to do that. the script i found to do this is below incase it helps you guys to help me.
i'm running into major problems with writing an irc client, it works perfectly when i execute it through flash, but when i upload it to a site, it won't connect, i understand that i need an crossdomain file, i've been doing alot of research, and can't make head's or tails
debugging shows that even though i do: Security.loadPolicyFile("http://example.com/crossdomain.xml");, it still attempts to read an crossdomain file from the target irc server, however, i don't have control over the target machine(nor should that be necessary), how do i get around this, or what am i doing wrong?
what i really need, is a simple example of connecting to an server that i don't control to load some resources(i.e grabbing an image), where all the crossdomains file's sit, and how it's generally done, googling around, it seems this information isn't as easy to come by as i thought
edit: also, i'm using raw sockets to connect to the irc server, if that makes a diffrence edit: alright, been reading alot more information, it looks like i do need to have a policy file to connect to said server, which is beyond retarded, please, someone tell me there's a way around this, but that doesn't explain why it works through flash?
