I have a problem with my application. Here's what i have up till now[code]...
Everything works fine, you can scale the image etc.
I would like to download the new image after you scaled it. I have been trying it for a long time now but i cant get it to work.[code]...
I've noticed that when I use NetConnection.call(methodName) in my client Actionscript it sends a POST request off to the server. I thought this was odd because requests for data are normally GET operations but I didn't worry about it because it doesn't impact my applicationow I have our sysadmin complaining about the amount of data I'm shifting over POST requests because POST requests aren't cached by the web servers (and we are working with the kind of traffic levels where that matters.) Is there anyway I can make call() use GET?The code I'm using is all fairly standard, but here is the relevant snippit:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
nc.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR, securityErrorHandler);

Using localconnection i can send data from one swf to another.
[Swf 1] Send data to [SWF 2] - This works with LocalConnection
[SWF 2] Sends this data to [PHP script]
Is there a way to send data from SWF 2 to PHP script without post data? or what would be the secure way to do it?
We have an application that so far uses AS3/AMFPHP, but we are finding this "request-response" model limited and feel we could make better use of sockets to deliver a more streamlined experience.The application is primarily a data-application containing no media streams.We want to open a socket to FMIS and use this as a pipe in which to stream data to and from the application.Consider this situation however, when values can be adapted externally outside of the FMS application: Example:A user who connects with $0.00 at the start of a Flash Client session, may topup money, via paypal externally. At this successful point, the users database value has $10.00, but FMS is still $0.00.How can FMS be informed of an external event such as this and update the client accordingly in real time?
View 1 RepliesHow can I save some text information in local hard-disk with out the server support. I know shared object, but i dont use this. I need to save all these function in anther external file as text.
Is there any way to do that in AS3.0.
I don't prefer Flex, am working in Action Script 3.0 & Flash IDE
EDIT:
My swf is saved in a local machine. So no server interaction or browser interaction. the swf is running a local folder and read txt files from local folder, and save once press the save button.

I have an XML object that I want to send to my player via HTTP POST. This is all good when using XML.sendAndLoad.The problem is that when the XML object I generate contains CDATA, the CDATA is stripped out before the POST occurs.so if I have:
var xml:XML = new XML("<root><tag><![CDATA[hello]]></tag></root>")
when I do a sendAndLoad this is what gets POSTed:
<root><tag>hello</tag></root>
the same occurs when I try to create the XML using XMLDOM methods like createElement, createTextNode, and appendChild.the AS2 docs say that CDATA is not supported. Is there a workaround for this? I'm thinking that it could be fixed by extending and overriding the XML class, but I haven't found a way to do it yet. I can't use LoadVars here either because it will attach a variable name, and we don't want that.
OK, you can use loadVariables and loadVars and a few other commands to post (or get) a variable to a server. What I'm trying to do is post an Array to a server and have the server output a text file of the array.
I have been toying with perl / cgi a bit: gaining some in site on Data Base programming. Would Perl be a decent program for the job of outputting a text file?
I am using the following code to try and post variables to a URL, but the SEND command is still posting the variables via GET.
// ls_print is the URL I am attempting to POST to
lv_request.send(ls_print, "_blank", "POST");
This is what the documentation says, so I'm lost.

View 1 RepliesI have been using Uploadify in my PHP application for the last couple months, and I've been trying to track down an elusive bug. I receive emails when fatal errors occur, and they provide me a good amount of details. I've received dozens of them. I have not, however, been able to reproduce the problem myself. Some users (like myself) experience no problem, while others do. Before I give details of the problem, here is the flow.

There are a few examples on the web showing how to post a row/form to mysql with flex php. I think it will be valuable if it allows user to post multiple rows of data. Supposed I have a datagrid and its id is myDG, how can I post the datagrid data to a table in mysql? I am using Flash Builder 4 and I need a solution based on Flex 3/4 + PHP + MySQL.
View 2 RepliesMy goal is to simply echo $_POST['imageVar']; back with content headers as a quick and dirty means to "export" an image from a flash application. I saw an example of this as follows, but it does not work with my php version/config:

{
// get bytearray

I am trying to get my flash application to send a request back to the webserver so that it can get some information. So far after reading on stackoverflow for a while and on the net I have some code written, but its not quite working right. I need just a little help tying it all together.

I have a working POST submission form in as3. It works for me in firefox and IE, but for the client it fails in Firefox for some reason (seemingly doesn't send the POST data)? I have allowScriptAccess in place and set to always. I am using the post method in my URLRequest.Yet it only works for the client in IE. Are there any Firefox version issues or settings I should be aware of? We are both using the same flash player
View 1 RepliesI am currently doing a simple project, and I need to save the players' scores into database for later retrieval. I used URLLoader and URLRequest to send XML object containing game score to a JavaServer Page (storedata.jsp) running on Apache Tomcat server. The AS3 code snippet is shown below:
public function sendData(xmlData:XML):void
{
var xmlData:XML = <block>
<chapter1>
[code]....
However, here comes the problem. The pageContext.request.reader doesn't return a parsed XML object. When I display using c: out, I saw [#document null] output. Hence, the x:set statement generates runtime error.
I don't really know much about variable and i doubt this is 100% relate to it maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong but i was wondering if anybody will give me an example on how to load the output from my example.php file to as3. for example this is what the php code display after collecting the data.
Code:
[status] => ON AIR
[title] => Radio Swiss Pop
[description] => Die besten Pophits der letzten 40 Jahre

How can i take whatever it shows on the result of the bracket symbol to a as3 movie ?
I've installed free FMS developper version on a vista OS, using the embeded Apache server. I added PHP 5.13 and everything seems to work except that : when I try to manage HTML forms, using the 'post' method, the result is a prompt windows, asking me for downloading the php file (corresponding to that pointed in the 'action' attribute. It acts as if Apache did not recognize the type php. My httpd.conf includes everyting to make php works fine. The clue is, when I change the form 'method' to 'GET', the php script works well! My FMS is configured to tunnel the HTTP request, listening to ports 80 and 1935 ant proxying HTTP to port 8134 (defaults) When I override this tunneling, by requesting the php file from my web browser directly to port 8134, it works fine too ! Now, I know that the problem comes from FMS and HTTP tunneling, but I have no idea how to solve it...
View 9 RepliesWe're trying to get microphone input in a Flash movie and the post it to the server so it can be saved in a file.
Currently, we're using PHP in the server, but I guess the key thing here is: How to post the audio to the server?
After a post is made, then I guess it'd be a matter of handling the encoding and saving to a file, which can be done with pretty much any server-side language.
I saw this post and don't understand why it's so struggling to post an image to server side with flash, or is it just the poster didn't do it in a proper manner ?So far my progress is:
var ba:ByteArray = (new PNGEncoder()).encode(vidBmpHolder);
var request : URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://localhost:3000/doodles");
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

I have a page, written in php that recives and ID value for Album information stored in an XML file. The XML File contains a links to "Samples": I'm trying to get my flash file to "retrive" the data (the ID value) from the php page (the flash file will be embedded), and make a list of samples that can be played. A sorta of an Audioplayer. I already know how to retrive XML data, but the retrival of the ID value from the PHP is a puzzle for me...
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to send some data to PHP using HTTPService POST but for some reason it's not working. The same example works with GET but not with POST:
private function start():void{
var param:Object = {};
param.date = "2010-10-10";
[code]....
But when I change the method in HTTPService to GET and in PHP I get the result as expected - PHP sends back the date:
2010-10-10
I have a web page with a button that does a redirect to another web page with a flash movie in it. The button on the first page sends http post data as part of it's functionality.
