I'm uploading an image file with upload() of a FileReference object however the network monitor in Flash Builder doesn't report anything. Is that normal behavior? A google search didn't return anything.

What is the reason Flash Builder 4's Network Monitor does not support applications that were created using pure ActionScript and Library projects? It seems to work only for Flex projects.

so the problem is I can print the array but how to cast tht array to a known php type? After 5 days I finnaly figured out flex and mysql using amfphp
I am querying a 3rd party web service and not all the data seems to be making it to the event handler. When I view the request/response in the Network Monitor I see a collection of data objects each containing two string variables (name, url) and two arrays (counts, breakdown). When the result handler receives the data and I view it in debug mode, the collection of data objects each only contains one string variable (name). What happened to the other string var (url) and both arrays (counts, breakdown)? what would cause this since it seems to becoming corrupt before it reaches the event handler but after it is received by the network? Is this most likely an IDE issue?
View 1 RepliesThe only tools/plugins I've seen online that allow for multiple files to be selected for upload through one single dialog box using a SHIFT or CTRL click action (as opposed to clicking on a single file per for file uploads) exist for controls made in Flash/.NET/Java, not just straight Javascript/HTML/PHP.
Why is that the case? I'd imagine that if possible, site developers would look to having less dependencies on different technologies rather than more.
I've been reading about the security restrictions for file uploads in Flash Player 10.According to the FileReference docs for upload(), the upload does not have to be triggered by a user-initiated action (the browse() does, but that's another story). If it did, that would force an awkward user experience for multi-file uploads, since only one upload can occur at once -- so the user would have to click (or press a button) once per file to initiate the upload, but only when the previous file had finished uploading.

I code primarily in PHP and Perl. I have a client who is insisting on seeking video submissions (any encoding) from the public via one of their pages rather than letting YouTube do its job.Server in question is a virtual machine and I can adjust ini settings for max post, max upload size etc as needed.My initial thought is to use a Flash based uploader with PHP on the back end but I wondered if someone might have useful advice and experience on the subject?
View 6 RepliesI'm looking for a tool to facilitate mulitple webpage file uploads from a single file browse dialogue. I know this has been asked previously, but I can't find anything current.I'd like to check file size prior to upload, and I gather Flash is still the only way to do that cross-browser? Ideally, I'd like an upload progress metre.I'll be using Linux and Apache servers, but don't have access to install add-ons such as PHP APC. Again, I assume something flash-based is the only option there?
I've looked at SWFUpload, but that appears to be another of these projects where the developers have become quite zealous and turned a simple concept into a full suite of tools for the masses.It seems quite cumbersome and I don't think I want to use it for my purpose.I'd prefer not to have to write something from scratch for this.suggest a non-Flash alternative if there is one? I do need full cross-browser compatibility without too many layers of degradation, so anything HTML 5 probably isn't what I want.
You all know the new generation of fancy, mostly Flash-based file uploaders like SWFUpload that can show a progress bar while uploading - a great improvement especially for shaky and low-bandwidth connections.
However, these uploaders all bring their own logic of how to handle uploads on the client side. I am looking for an unobtrusive way to "fancify" existing, classical file uploads, i.e. introducing a progress bar to normal file upload forms.
Due to the architecture of uploading files, this is most likely not possible without some tweaking on the client side.
I am looking for a solution that keeps the tweaking to an absolute minimum, e.g. a component that adds itself to the onsubmit event of a normal form, performs the file upload, displays a nice progress bar, puts the resulting temporary (server side) file path into the form, and submits it. On the server side, I just have to modify my script to use the file path provided by the flash uploader, instead of $_FILES and consorts, and think about security for a moment.
This is not exactly what all the Flash-based uploaders do: They can use data from a form, but they do not provide possibilities to submit the form as is, what is what I'm looking for. I am looking for a (probably) Flash based upload function taken a step further.
I've been using this method of file uploading for a bit, but it seems that Google Gears has poor support for the newer browsers that implement the HTML5 specs. I've heard the word deprecated floating around a few channels, so I'm looking for a replacement that can accomplish the following tasks, and support the new browsers. I can always fall back to gears / standard file POST's but these following items make my process much simpler:
Users MUST to be able to select multiple files for uploading in the dialog.I MUST be able to receive status updates on the transmission of a file. (progress bars)I would like to be able to use PUT requests instead of POST I would like to be able to easily attach these events to existing HTML elements using JavaScript. I.E. the File Selection should be triggered on a <button> click. I would like to be able to control response/request parameters easily using JavaScript.
An example of uploading code using gears:
// select some files:
var desktop = google.gears.factory.create('beta.desktop');
desktop.openFiles(selectFilesCallback);
[code]....
Edit: apparently flash isn't capable of using PUT requests, so I have changed it to a "like" instead of a "must".
I monitor (and log to server) most user errors in our flash game. Quite frequently I see security errors related to trying to make requests to a cross-domain URL (usually the Facebook Graph API). 99% of our players can make these graph API calls with no issues.What I think is going on is that the client makes a request, but fails to load the crossdomain.xml file. I don't quite know how AS3 handles this in the case of a failure to load the crossdomain policy file...will it retry for every URLRequest made until it succeeds in loading it, or does it just give up forever?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a Flash application(more like a game) where a user can add sounds to a timeline and then play the resulting "song". That is not really hard to do, and the resulting track can be saved and played within my app, but the problem is that I would like to export the created track as a .wav(or .mp3). I know that recording from a microphone with MicRecorder is possible and then the record can be exported with WaveEncoder, but I didn't find a way to create a custom sound stream from multiple sounds and than export it. Is this possible?
View 1 RepliesI have the following scenario:
One application JEE / Flex 4 running on a tomcat, inside my Flex layer I have a iFrame passing a url to an ip of my internal network (http:url....) which is another application running within an industrial PLC.When access this app from within my internal network works fine, but when I try to access this iFrame to an external network in my home for example have a timeout error onhttp:[url].........
I believe this error occurs because the flex client is trying to run this url as I was in a internal network.Is there any way to run this url from an external network?
I have to work with a .fla file. I would like to rewrite this file in AS3. Is it possible?
I mean, I would get a .swf file as result of compilation of mxml file in Flash Builder 4 IDE, not Flash CS5 (I don't know CS5, I'm a newbie) . Main target is getting a .swf file by compilation of mxml file, not fla file. Could you explain in detail how this code works? For example what's TXT ? Is it a inputText? Where is this variable defined?

i have build a small test app in Flash Pro 5.5 overlayed with the AIR 3 sdk.is has just 2 buttons to record and playback audio from the microphone. when i test this on my iPhone 3g - i record myself saying "1-2-3-4-5". but when i playback a half a second or so is missing from the beginning : "3-4-5-".
when i test this on the desktop all is fine is this a result of the iPhone 3g's cpu power or is it a bug or is it my code?

im testing out some AS3 and working on my first preloader. Ive run into the file access problem and looked about for a while and found that locally I can get files to load with the compiler flag -network=off. To put this online would I have to do a compile with the network on but with a Security.allowDomain("myDomain") line. Would this then work online so long as all the required files are in the same place.

View 2 Repliesthing is, I have to do some modifications at my work, but I never used Flashdevelop, only Flash Builder.
However, the project I need to modify was made with Flashdevelop, it comes with a .as3file, no fla file anywhere.
So, what do I need to do in order to use this project in Flash Builder?, just creating a new project and browsing the path file with the src .as files is enough?, or do I need to do something else?

In a plugin context (a swf loaded by an another swf), is there any way to restrict access to file system and network in the same time to the loaded swf?Compiler option "-use-network=true|false" does not fit because you cannot restrict both file/network.[code]The loaded swf is in user's document folder, outside Air app folder. Currently, the loaded swf is abble to load "c:/Windows/regedit.exe" and I don't want it (neither sending informations on the network).
View 2 RepliesCurrently, I do serialize my model object to the SharedObject instance:
try {
var mySo:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("sig");
mySo.clear();[code]....
Likewise, I load the saved model using the SharedObject instance. Works great.Ultimately, I'd like to serialize it to a file - which fails. Here is how:
var fp: File = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
fp = fp.resolvePath( PREFS_FILENAME );
var _prefsStream:FileStream;[code]....
The complementing read operation suddenly breaks and reports missing bytes.In fact, I can't image how FileStream / _model.writeExternal() is able to serialize, since it needs to somehow know, that a new serialization operation is about to start. If it doesn't know, it won't be able to determine, which object instances are left to serialize.Thus, I image that my concept is completely wrong or I missed how to initialize the serialization operation.I'd be happy to read the raw ByteArray from the shared object and write it to a file. Unfortunately, I didn't find a method to retrieve from a SharedObject a ByteArray of a certain property, in my case mySo.data.model.My question is loosely related to this one: Why does delete( DictionaryInstance[ key ] ); fail?

View 1 RepliesI am creating a web page that allows users to upload their own swf files to my web page, which are then used by the main web page as components. This creates a security issue though because I don't want the uploaded swf files to access other files on the server.
when the main webpage starts, it loads whatever third party swf files the user specifies. Is there a way for my main web page to change the security settings of the loaded swf so that the loaded swf is treated like it was loaded from another domain? Or is there another way I can provent these uploaded swfs from accessing local files on the server.
