As known, each subsequent time that the FileReferenceList.browse() method is called, the FileReferenceList.fileList property is reset to the file(s) that the user selects in the dialog box. And my question is:
How to manage to "remember" all previously selected files, each subsequent time that the FileReferenceList.browse() method is called? so that to append new ones and upload them all later on.
I have been working on a flex uploader, where the user can select multiple files.It works fine when the files are uploaded in a queue (one at a time), however as soon as I try to have it upload 2 files at once I run into issues.
It seems that files will often lock up, and either stay at 1% until every other file is uploaded, or just not complete at all. There is never more than one file uploading at a time.Is there some issue with calling .upload on multiple files at once in Flex?
I'm building an app that needs to upload multiple files to my server. Ask of these files are in one folder. I was told I carnot directly tell a fileReference which files to upload, they would have to be selected manually through browse ().
View 2 RepliesI coded a multiple file uploader using the FileReferenceList and PHP. It works great for me all the time on my Fios internet connection, which is by far faster then DSL, etc... So my issue kinda went unnoticed until I got on a DSL connection. Now, many of the files I was uploading seem to be timing out, but there is no indication of this. No errors, etc... just stops its progress and NEVER finishes. Tried bumping up the script execution time on the server

View 1 RepliesMy users upload a certain kind of text file that sometimeshas references to images stored locally on their hard drive. I needto check this file either on the server or within a flash app tosee if it has these references and then grab those images in aflash app to upload to my server.So I can use FileReference easily enough to have users uploadlocal images. But FileReference requires users to select their files with a dialog box. I can't have that. Myusers wouldn't know where to look and there are typically way toomany files, sometimes with the same name but in differentdirectories.
I can also just use URLLoader with a local URL, I guess I canprobably just use Loader too? That works great. The problem here isI can't communicate with both the server and the local filesystemin the same flash application due to Flash's security sandboxrestrictions. So I can get out of those security restrictions byplacing or editing a trust file in designated locations on variousOSes. I then need to install this trust file which is more invasiveand confusing to users then I want to be...Java's method of accessing local files from a web applet bysimply signing the applet with a certificate and having a dialogbox popup where the users grants access is ideal. Is there anything
Using an unobtrusive technology (HTML5, Flash, Java Applet) which runs in the browser, is it possible to handle compressing of files before being uploaded to the server? I'm building software which will be consumed by a lot of slow connections and by non-computer-savvy users and circumventing an application install would be very beneficial for them.

I made my own Flash CMS where I can upload files to a server via a php-script.It works fine on PC, but stalls on Mac. Well, on Mac it actually upload the file, but somehow don't tell Flash that it's finished uploading the file so the complete-listener never gets the message.

I'm going to implement a file uploading application using flex 3.5 and php. In the flex code I need to read the content of the uploaded file without calling the FileReference.load() method (Since it is a big issue when uploading large files).

View 1 RepliesI made a multiple file uploader with resize. All works fine, but sometimes uploading fails and nothing happens.
I've spent many times to find out why this happens, but with no result.
I assume error can be caused by variables that goes after import declarations. Maybe some of they are destroyed by the garbage collection? Or maybe my eventListeners are wrong?
take a look at my code:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.FileReferenceList;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
[Code]....
I added eventListeners for handling errors (IOException etc.), but none of they was triggered. So now I've removed that listeners to simplify the code.
Do you have any thoughts about why uploading interrupt sometimes? Or maybe you notice some errors in my code?
I have a series of animations of graphs etc in different flash files. Tried to put everything on the one timeline but was getting way too confusing so thought I would put each part in a separate flash file.
What I want to do is, once one file has come to an end load the next one up to play and so on. This is all part of a presentation so the user will click the keyboard to progress to the next file.

I'm using Flash 8, and I hope I word this correctly.How would I set it up so that I can share a single piece of art across multiple files?My goal is to arrange it so that I can edit the art in the original file and automatically update the art in all files linked to it when published?For example, I'm working on a character animation where the character appears in many episodes and the episodes are split into many .fla files.If I needed to change the appearance of the character in all of the episodes which are spread across many .fla files, I would I have to do it manually?

View 1 Replieshow do you properly handle namespace collisions in SWC files if one SWC has fewer classes from that namespace than another?I have a rather large Flash application which I'm building in Flash Builder (because coding/debugging in the Flash IDE is.not good) and I've got a ton of external SWC files which I'm linking in to my application. This has worked well so far - the file size is on the large side, but it's a lot simpler than loading in SWFs, especially since I am extending most of the classes in each SWC and adding custom code that way (it's a very design-heavy app.) The problem I'm having is when I have Flash Components, like ComboBox or TextInput, in more than one SWC. Whichever SWC was compiled last will work fine, but the others will fail with errors like the following:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::MovieClip@1f21adc1 to fl.controls.TextInput.

I've been researching components, ComponentShim, etc. but I'm running up against a brick wall. I thought it might be the fact that some of the components had their skins modified in the source FLA, so I tried replacing them with the default skins. How can I ensure that I have the components imported and available to all my classes, yet still be able to skin them and include them in my various FLAs?
My project is made from multiple SWF files. I'm able to create .app from the main SWF file. Is it possible to put the related files into the .app directory structure? Where should be placed? Into .app/Contents/Resources/? Would it be possible to access these files using some relative path to this location from the main SWF?
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a Flash project that deals with multiple files. There is a main file that loads in individual SWF files as they click on different buttons. The course has dynamic text Fields that are populated via XML. So right now, my idea is to give each page it's own XML file? Would this be better suited to have one single XML file for all the pages, and the container file or multiple files?
Also, this is going to be a multilingual project. EDIT: The XML files will just be storing text information to populate the text fields, and some links to load in images. Also, the loaded SWFs will never be accessed without the use of the main "container" SWF.
