I'm using URLLoader to POST to a server. The xml response from the server can respond with a 404 or a 403 (forbidden) error. However I am unable to get the response codes.
Here is the code
var urlString:String = "some url";
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(urlString);
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code]....
status is always 0 regardless whether i return 200, 400, 404, 301, 500, etc...
We are working on a plugin for the JWPlayer and I noticed that in Chrome specifically, we are running into issues with the 302 redirect urls that we're using. The JWPlayer is not recognizing the redirect which contains url-based flashvars which we need. So here's my question(s):
1) Is there a way using AS3 to get the response headers from a url when NOT using AIR?
2) Is there any known issues with Chrome and 302 redirects that might be enough to trip up Flash?
3) What is the best method to handle a 302 redirect? The current issue is that there is a queue'd process and none of the other steps can continue without the first one and if the first one fails because it didn't get the proper flashvars, then the whole thing fails.
I am using Flex 3 (ActionScript 3.0). I use the HTTP progressive download to play sound files. I want to secure the sound files, by only serving them when the request comes from my flex app. I chose the simplest solution of adding a HTTP header to each request send from the app. But flash.media.Sound object ignores the headers set in flash.net.URLRequest. Here's an example,
URLRequest sndFile = new URLRequest("http://blah.com/media/load_sound.php");
sndFile.requestHeaders = new Array(new URLRequestHeader("req-orgin", "myflexapp"));
Sound snd = new Sound(sndFile);
snd.play();
The value of req-origin comes as null in load_sound.php. When i inspect the request using Firebug, the request headers to [URL] doesn't contain the header.
from time to time I get feedback from my web portal customers that they cannot see Flash component on the page - instead there's a blank white region. When it happens I instruct them to clear browser cache, and it solves the issue. Is there any way to handle this differently, using HTTP headers etc.

View 1 RepliesI'm building an image viewer that has violent content (video games), and so it requires users to enter their birthdays. Problem is that because of company policy, I can't expose any of the source images being viewed in the event that someone might use their resources/net tabs (or just sniff the request) and get the direct link to the image. (I know that they could screenshot it, but that's out of anyone's control and not something I'm worried about.)Is there anyway to inherently mask loaded resources (images)? I've been using sockets, which is great, but there's also the problem of actually loading the image binary (after HTTP request headers are removed) as a Bitmap in Flash.

I am trying to access a .Net service which requires an authentication header. If WebService is used it works fine. But when it is accessed using HTTPService it throws error. The project is already done by somebody else using HTTPService. Now changing to webService requires some time since there needs to be modification in a lot of files.
Below is the SOAP envelop required by the service.

I understand AS can read the XML file OK but not write native. A php script is required to perform the write.

View 3 RepliesI was wondering so long that how can people analyze the trait of each file extension (of course open it in notepad is not readable) For example, I want to write a program that can read everything from .fla file like timeline, movie clips, position of each MCs or all the motion tween values. And get the image embeded in it. (I'm planning to use flash as IDE for another project.)
(The reason that I tried to read proprietary format is I want to utilize their awesome editor. What I actually want to do is, I want to make an iOS game with cocos2d. There is a code to move things around in cocos2d but there is no decent editor. So I'd like to use Flash as an editor, then convert the motion to objective-C cocos2D code by reading the .fla file.)
I'm trying to save the contents of a XML file on a list, but I'm getting this error: 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before colon. Note: I think Im missing an import stuff, but I tried flash.net.List and didnt do a thing.

I'm a bit of a newbie with flash and Actionscript. I have been programming for a number of years now, but I have only been messing around with flash since CS4. I have CS5 now, and need a bit of help. I have a wireless device that I have made, I wish to make a flash program (potentially adapted to iPhone or Android) that sends and receives data (in the form of Word or Byte sized variables) from an IP address assigned to the device. Is this achievable?
View 1 RepliesAnother Adobe AIR question for you: Can we write files to the file system and leave them as read-only in Adobe AIR? In the future, we would overwrite these files (or delete them and write a new one).
Update: I tried the following approach, but I was still able to open the file, edit, and save to the file system after the process executed.
