View 1 RepliesI was wondering if it would be possible to write a file, not to the local system, but to a connected server or other network path. Would i have to use an external php interface for this or can i entrust this to the AIR framework?

The program I'm making plays an MP3 of your choice at a certain time, like an alarm clock. But I got tired of entering the file path of the MP3 EACH time so I wanted to have a browse feature.

I can only get the file name and that pretty useless for an upload to a server. I will be using php to ftp it to my server.
I need to know what the details are of the file permissions of an adobe AIR app. Specifically, to where can may it write text files? Anywhere on the local system? I heard Adobe has a set of "Sandbox Permissions" but these just confuse me as I don't know where they apply. Additionally I wish to know if you need some kind of special permission to append to a file somewhere on the system.

I'm not a flash dev, but I'm turning to it to try and meet a requirement. I'm to allow a user to select a file on their computer, then pass it to my web application. I know it's not possible to do this using Javascript, hence wanting to use flash.

View 1 RepliesI am coding an AIR application.
I've got directly a path of a swf file (because it was stored in a xml file). Do yo know if it is possible to get the ByteArray from this file ?
I know that FileReference do that very well, but this class need a select event. But it isn't my case because I've allready got my path.
I'm using UILoaders to load different .swf files into the main .swf and am having a problem when I try to load a specific .swf file after a series of steps.I wanted to know if there was a way to see which is the current path that the application is in so that I can know if my relative paths are working or if I have to change them.I want to do something in the likes of this.path, or anything that works that way.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get a swf inside a swf to load xml data and I don't fully understand relative paths.I want to include all the necessary info.I have a main swf in my index.html page and a gallery.swf loaded into a container in the main swf, and I can't get the gallery.swf to load the xml data. See pic. I'm not sure if the path to XML file is wrong OR the paths to the image in the XML file are wrong.Here is the structure in the root:
root/index.html (contains main.swf)
root/flash/gallery.swf[code]....
I know the gallery swf IS loading into the main swf because for now I'm using the absolute path and I have typed "test" on the gallery stage and it shows up. (Once I get a grip on paths, I'll change the absolute path to a relative path, but for now, I need to reduce my variables for troubleshooting).I've think I've tried every path permutation for the load XML path inside the gallery swf:
ActionScript Code:
myXML.load("scripts/xml/gallery.xml");
myXML.load("./scripts/xml/gallery.xml");[code]....
I've also tried every permutation for the paths to the images, but unfortunately BOTH need to be right for the pics to show up!
Code:
<image image_small="gallery/thumbs/kirk_ross_01.jpg"
<image image_small="./gallery/thumbs/kirk_ross_01.jpg"[code].......
I have a swf that is in a different directory then the index. so I make sure that the xml has the proper relative path to the location of the index. which works fine for all the images that I load in.. simple enough right?but for some reason the NetStream seems to want to use the base url location as the location of the swf instead of the index.. to apply the relative url too..I have never seen this behavior before and was wondering if this is how its supposed to be..I already double checked my xml to make sure it was not doubling up the folder name..but basically the xml is like so..
<video src="foldername/videos/file.flv" />
but when i view it online. the browser is looking for the file here..
domain.com/content/foldername/foldername/videos/file.flv
[code].....
I have a code like this...
Code:
var _fileSelect:String = "";
OpenFile.onRelease = function(){
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();

I am making flash mp3 player. I am using FileReference to browse for files. I won't get the file path and later realized that it is a security concern. But I tried using HTML.
I used ExternalInterface to trigger flash function from HTML which opens file selection box using FileReference.browse() option.So, as the flash file is in the HTML form, can i track the file path in HTML and send it to flash.
I plan to run my App off a thumb drive, and I need to be able to find the full filepath of my Flash app at run time, so I can then point to an xml folder on the hard drive. I need it to work on Windows or Mac, so it needs to find the full path of the running file, then append the "xml" folder onto the end.
View 10 RepliesIs there any way to get the file path of an object that is selected through the browse() method in the FileReference class. I don't think it can be done with a FileReference object, but is there another class that allows this, or any possible way to do this using XML?
View 4 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).
