could you please point me out good Flash and ASP.NET integration tutorials out there? For example reading values from FLASH text-boxes for performing queries to MSSQL databases, and writing back values to flash.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash application that communicates with php to save data to nvarchar(1200) column. However when I change to different language support i.e locale, and type into the flash app the letters are good but in the db they are saved as question marks instead of the reall letters.

View 5 Replies! I just did the Kirupa XML tutorial (for Flash MX) and ... I actually understand! But now I need to change a few things.. and I haven't got a clue. Right now, I know how to import text from an XML file into different text boxes. But, what I need to do, is be able to import text regardless of how many text boxes my FLA file has.

The code I'm building creates two MovieClips on the stage, in one it instantiates several text boxes and in the other some buttons.
What I can't do is access data from the text boxes (e.g. textField.text) for use in the functions called by the eventListeners attached the buttons. I had the system all working nicely before I placed the text boxes and the buttons on separate movie clips.but this structure makes it much tidier to refresh the text I'm using.The button functions are fine with variables created prior to the building of the text boxes.
Am I failing to address the text boxes correctly (because they're on another movie clip) or is there a stage / movie clip property I need to set so they can see each other ... or is this something else altogether?Could it be that the buttons are created before the text boxes?

Is it possible to tell a text box to auto fit to its text? What I mean is that when i change the size of a font to something smaller the text box remains its old large self. This is a problem because when I want to align this text with several other text boxes that have gone through similar treatment, the alignment will take into account the full box size rather than just the text.
So basically I have to go and manually shorten each text box. Which is a pain when you have to deal with a lot of text. Is there a script or button/option I'm not aware of that will auto fit the box constantly?

View 1 RepliesI have a INPUT TEXT inside a mc called "txt mc" and DYNAMIC TEXT in the main time line.I'm trying to display what's typed in the INPUT TEXT (my_Input_Txt) in the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes (my_Dyn_Txt1, my_Dyn_Txt2, my_Dyn_Txt3).Here's the code. But it won't simply work perhaps because the INPUT TEXT is inside a MC. I need to have the INPUT TEXT INSIDE THAT MC while having the DYNAMIC TEXT boxes out in the main time line.

View 2 RepliesThe basics of my problem is I need to have actionscript query a MySQL server. I figured the best way to do this was create a Database class that will hold several static methods for the various queries. I created the PHP program necessary to run the queries, and the MySQL database (no problem there). I also figured out the basics of URLLoader to get the info back from the PHP. Now lastly, I am trying to figure out the best way to make the data usable.
Essentially the flow I wanted was the static method in the Database class would return the result of the query (e.g. return user's name) so in the main class I would just write something like firstName=Database.getFirstname(idNumber);. However, I quickly learned this may be impossible since the loader obviously takes some time to load everything and storing and manipulating the data is best done through a Event.COMPLETE event. Is there a way to have a function pause and not run subsequent lines until an event occurs? The ideal function would look like this I guess
Code:
private static variable url:String = "phpFilesUrl.com"
public static function getFirstName(id:String):String

I'm making a program that draws a grid of boxes and the color of the box must be different to those adjacent to the box. My code compares the current box's color to those to the left and top. If any of them matches, it picks another random number (as the color). For the tiles on the first row/column, I make my grid's array indexes with negative numbers -1 so that it will not match.

How do you connect to an mssql database from within flash cs3 to retrieve data for displaying within a flash datagrid?

I'm working with a friend with some changes to their complex flash site after their previous developer jumped ship on them. In the process of making some edits I noticed that the previous developer had exposed all of their data to the world. Any slightly tech-savy user could pretty much read all the table data in their database by visiting a php page.
So here's the scenario I'm trying to solve.
- The flash site uses Shared Objects to save users access privileges when they log in successfully.
- There are frequent calls to the database to display information (whether logged in or not). The site calls a php page.. lets say... query.php?table="tablename" and returns all tables data... (what a mess). Only specific columns are needed to be returned to the user (whether they are logged in or NOT logged in). there is no check to see if the user is logged in or not when this page is called. so anyone can call a page and get this data.
- Only the ADMIN should get returned the full table set as they are the ones that need to see all the data in flash. however the same php query is called for the admin and for the regular user and any non-logged in user.
So. I guess I can limit the data set returned for the average logged in or not logged in user so the more sensitive data isn't shared. But how can I authenticate the logged in admin to share the full table data?
what is the best tool available in flash mx to connect to databases and do we have a tutorial for that.
