While using Socket, i am able to read the data as
while (socket.bytesAvailable)
{
textArea.text += socket.readUTFBytes(socket.bytesAvailable);
}
How can i read the data while using a XMLSocket? Is it enough to use xmlSocket.toString() ?
I'm writing a flash chat program using XMLSocket.It's connecting and sending data just fine. The server is sending the data back just fine (I checked the packets on Ethereal), but Flash is just not receiving any data.[code]The server is a Java server written with the NIO classes.

// action script
var socket:XMLSocket = new XMLSocket("127.0.0.1",8888);
socket.addEventListener(Event.CONNECT, connected);
socket.addEventListener(DataEvent.DATA, transData);

this won't send the string "this string won't be sent" to the client(flash).

I am attempting to connect to a python twisted socket server with Flash using XMLSocket. The connect works fine, and so does the receive. However I can't send data to the server. Is there a specific format I should be using? The reason I ask is because I couldn't read any data with the XMLSocket until the data was in the form "something", that is, the data string had to be valid xml followed by the null character. Is there a trick to sending data?
I don't think this a cross site security problem, because if it was, I believe I wouldn't be able to connect or receive. I am able to connect to the server using telnet and a java client without issues. EDIT: I figured it out, the problem was my server needed to have the data sent to it end with"
I am having newbie problems with sockets. Flash sends data to my php server script fine, and my telnet client(s) all get updated. When I make an entry into a telnet client, all of the other clients update immediately as expected. In Flash however, the only time I receive data is when I press a key within flash.
Example: Press 'a' within Flash, flash traces a, telnet outputs a Press b in telnet, telnet outputs b, nothing within flash Press c in Flash, flash traces b, c, telnet traces c

I guess this is more of an issue of how to set up Flash to listen for events on the socket
I have a server written in C# (Visual C# .NET Framework), that I know for a fact works. When I run my Flash application, I am able to connect to the server (the server shows the message that a connection has been made), but I can't for the life of me get data to be received by the Flash application.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to read some data in from a sql source, some of which contains double quotes embedded in the text. I know I can strip the doublequotes, but don't want to go that route if I can avoid it. I've tried replacing to double quotes with hex codes before passing the text via parameter to my flash file, but the text string always cuts off at the hex code, the same as if the double quote were present in the string. For example:This is a "text" stringreplace double quotes with hex: This is a x22textx22 stringesults when read into flash: This is a <remainder is dropped>Yet if I type the same text string in a variable in flash, the string displays the double quotes properly:

View 5 RepliesThere's a RadioButtons group (=Group3) and event listener applied on it. The value of _root.choices3.a3.data is "a". The code is following:

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to read json data from a web service. The problem is that it seems URLLoader always return the data as XML so I can't decode the json string.
This is my code :
import com.adobe.serialization.json.JSON;
var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(<asmx, web service path>);
myRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
[code]....
not surprisingly i get an error on the json decode because as far as i can see using trace, i get xml data.Also i tried to run it on the browser, didn't help. Also tried to set the content type in the request to 'application/json', but it gave me an error.Even though i googled it, i couldn't fint what is the problem in my as3 code. It seems to me it should have worked.
I want to create a flash swf file that will store a token in Local Shared Object. What do I need to do to read that token and look it up in the database on the back end? Is this possible at all?
here is a possible scenario:
User visits my web page A token is generated on the server and stored in the database Token is then saved in LSO User leaves the site (maybe shuts down his computer) and comes back later Token is read, located in the database and the user is recognized (lets say that token is a foreign key that links to other user data stored in the db)
I researched this for quite a while and all I find is that flash can use LSO to store read data for flash movie... Does this mean that the data can not be accessed by the server?
We have a flash app (AS3) that reads some data from a local XML file and displays it in a cool way. The problem is that the browser(s) seem to cache this XML data, i.e. when we revisit the page containing the flash, it is rendered using out of date data (the XML file is updated regularly). We find we must visit the URL of the actual XML file and hit refresh (CTRL+F5) to get the new XML to load, and then go back to the page with the flash to see it rendered with the up-to-date data. Is there a way to remedy this? Perhaps the solution is like the one used to prevent caching of Javascript, i.e. appending a random GET param to the URL?
