I am sending the parameters from flex application through HTTP POST request to Python/PSP script. I am able to call PSP script from flex app using HTTP POST request, but i am not able to use/retrieve these parameters in Python/PSP
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.
When Flex application make an asynchronus HTTP request, does it add a special header to the request, like some JavaScript framework does? Something that indicates whether this request is an AJAX call/not.I just want my server side code to return different response format, depending on whether the request is made from browser/flex.
We are facing one issue directly connected with our Flash API we've given to a 3rd party flash vendor. To make a long story short, our API basically wraps domain logic on client and creates a single POST request towards the server in JSON format. All will be ok except in combination MacOS + Safari we receive double requests on server (?).
Even more interesting, we are receiving different agent names - one is expected name/decriptor of the browser and system, other is "CFNetwork". POST /RuntimeDelegate.ashx - 80 Mozilla/5.0+(Macintosh;+U;+Intel+Mac+OS+X+10_4_11;+fr)+AppleWebKit/531.22.7+(KHTML,+like+Gecko)+Version/4.0.5+Safari/531.22.7 200 0 0 POST /RuntimeDelegate.ashx - 80 CFNetwork/129.24 200 0 0 POST /RuntimeDelegate.ashx - 80 Mozilla/5.0+ [Code] .....
In Flex 3 application I use HTTPService class to make requests to the server:
var http:HTTPService = new HTTPService(); http.method = 'POST'; http.url = hostUrl;[code]....
The application has Comet-architecture. So it makes long running requests. While waiting a response for this request, other requests can be made concurrently.The application works in most cases. But sometimes some clients get HTTP request error executing long running request:
I have a flash application that I need to debug and I need to filter out a GET request to redirect it to another domain because the file is not available on the domain that it's trying to get it from. I can not edit the source code until Monday and I need to figure out a way to redirect that request to the other domain that has the resource that is missing.
I tried using both HTTPService and URLRequest/URLLoader. But I can't figure out how to get either the response output or the response headers in case of a server error(like 500).
I'm using an HTMLLoader object to create a simple browser in my AIR application. Is there a way to listen for Event.OPEN (or the equivalent) for when a user clicks a link that causes the HTMLLoader to initiate an HTTP request?For capturing the end of a load, Event.COMPLETE is working perfectly. I just can't find a way to capture the beginning of a load!
Building a photo album / upload image page in my website.I have a page that�s giving me trouble� action.php Error when I test in browser: HTTP 400 Bad Request / webpage cannot be found (highlighted below)

I'm trying to insert a HTTP header into the request that is made when a .SWF requests a .FLV movie via the flvplayback object. Here's my scenario.
We are using Akamai to distribute our flash video so it loads faster. Our current set up involvels 4 primary components:
1. HTML sitting on our corporate webservers. 2. SWF being served by the Akamai servers. 3. FLV file being served by the Akamai servers. 4. flvplayback skin (SWF file) being hosted by the Akamai servers.
When the HTML file loads into the browser, it requests the SWF, which then loads the flvplayback skin and FLV video. This whole process works until you add security to the mix. We have referer security, which means that that Akamai-hosted files won't load unless the requesting domain is one of our corporate domains. The referer is usually passed over in the HTML header, so the HTML file can successfully request and load the SWF from the Akamai servers. However, when the SWF then requests the skin and FLV file, they don't load because the referer header isn't passed over in this request.
How do I insert the referer header into the SWF request for the FLV and flvplayback skin? I'm assuming this needs to be done from within the flvplayback instance in my SWF file, but I don't know how to reference that. I tried the following, but it didn't seem to work:
I want to upload new photo to picasa using picasa API
My code: ActionScript Code: var _loader:URLLoader; function uploadPhoto():void { _loader = new URLLoader(); _loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,startUpload); [Code]...
I am using ActionScript 2.0 for my app development. I have checked XML and LoadVars class. These classes by default send/receive data either in XML or name/value pair format. I want to send data in JSON format and receive the response in JSON format. How can I achieve this behavior using AS2.0. I have noticed that AS3.0 has the capabilities to do so. My client platform doesn't support AS3.0.
I tried using var params: Object = ((this.stage.loaderInfo) as LoaderInfo).parameters; to get the parameters, but it returns an Object with no properties. That LoaderInfo will give me the correct URL without the parameters though if I use LoaderInfo.url. I'm using the request: http://localhost/foo.swf?start=foobar. params.hasOwnProperty("start") returns nothing, and using a for loop shows that "params" has no properties. How do I receive the start/foobar pair in my code? I would much prefer to not use FlashVars due to our setup.
I'm new to Flex and couldn't figure out yet how to send binary data to the server as the body of a POST request. The HTTPService component doesn't seem to support this. The FileReference doesn't seem to support setting the data via the Flex API.
I'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've a Services class...which handles the HTTPService requests and responses and faults. Now I want to dispatch a new event whenever I send request to the server...so that I can take custom actions like showing some popup window or disabling certain components.
Here is my services class: PHP Code: package business{ import mx.controls.Alert; import mx.managers.CursorManager; import mx.rpc.AsyncToken; import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent; import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; import mx.rpc.http.HTTPService; [Code] .....
The method doRequest calls the HTTPServices send method...so in this method, I want to dispatch a new event and handle it in the main application...
I have a flash file that is located on my website and I have a php file wich gets requests from flash file every 5 minutes. I want to be shure that flash file wich is sending request is located on my website and not somewhere else. How can I do it. Is there anything in PHPs global variables?
Running my Flash app from localhost (in debug) I can connect/contact the socket server just fine. Note: It doesn't seem as though the server detects any 843 connection (e.g. the policy file port) this way. However, when I move the app to the server itself and run it from there (i.e. from the website), it will send the policy file, get a disconnect (as it should), and then try to execute the regular port stuff but doesn't read anything from Flash. It seems like my Flash app isn't writing to the port as it should, or something else is going wrong. I did also notice that Flash seems to be trying to send the policy-file-request twice.My process right now is like this:
1) Flash tries to connect to port 843. The server responds to its <policy-file-request/> with the policy file.
2) Flash reads it, disconnects from 843
3) Server gets graceful disconnect, then gets another connection on 843.
4) Just after that, the server gets a connection on 2188, but reads another <policy-file-request/>, so sends the policy file again.
5) At this point, Flash SHOULD simply write the string "Test" to the socket (that's in my connect handler). However, my server doesn't seem to read anything on the socket after the second <policy-file-request/>.[code]
I have a problem with a flashpage I am developing. It sends a request to a database through a php-file and retrieve a text that I place in a textfield. The problem is that the swedish and other specialcharacters is shown in code format looking like this u00e4 . I know both my php-file and database is correct because I have used the same request with the same php-file and database in a android app and it works perfect.
am having this problem of sending XML request to an addresswhich starts with "https". The problem is I always get the errormessage "Error opening URL "https:......."", instead of the actualresponse which should be in XML format as well.The function I am using is "sendAndLoad()"requestXML and responseXML are objects of XML class . Whatfunction "sendAndLoad" above does is to post variables in the"requestXML" object to the specified URL "servelet_address". Theserver response is downloaded, parsed as variable data, and theresulting variables are placed in the responseXML object.However, as I stated above, I always get the error message.
We've setup a simple email sending bit of code that communicates with a server script. This is working fine but we're not able to capture the HTTP Status that is being returned by the server! We can see from the server and browser that the status '200' is being returned but for some reason the flash swf isn't picking it up. Is this a security issue?
Code: var EmailVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(); var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(); var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); EmailVariables.name = EnterEmail.Name_txt.text; EmailVariables.email = EnterEmail.EmailAddr_txt.text; [Code] .....
I am a Flex developer and I am trying to load an AS2 swf in my AS3 code.The load itself works, but the parameters are not transported for some reason.
This is my code.
var urlrequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(); urlrequest.url = "Pres.swf?test=test1"; var loader:Loader = new Loader(); loader.load(urlRequest);
In the handler function for the complete event, when I checked for the parameters in contentLoaderInfo, there is just an empty object associated with it(I guess, there are no key- value pairs in it atleast).I cannot make any changes to the AS2 swf, because I don't have any tools to build it right now.
