I am trying to load the value of a php variable into a dynamic text field in flash mx. I am using the loadvars method, with "nameofPHPfile,"0","GET" etc. It doesn't seem to work, but then I am not sure if the php code is correct. A process of elimination is needed. Am I using the right method in flash???

I'd like to simply display the users name and photo inside a flash app. I hope to do this only in the client without using any backend scripting. The ActionScript 3 SDK for Facebook Platform is under construction for the next few weeks to comply with new facebook requirements so I don't trust the current build to be useful.
We have searched and built tests for a week with no luck. I have a feeling the answer is either very simple or not possible.
How many possible ways to send/load data to/from server side data sources and what are the conditions of using each method.

I need to feed the correct result back into my database.
I want to create an application that has these features
- At client side: Display a list of images, when user click on one image, data will be stored in MySQL database.
- At server side: Manage images used in client side, I can delete, add new images.
Is this possible for me to achieve this using Flex? And if it is able, will my output be 2 separate SWF files? And where can I find the materials to read on writing such applications?
i am trying to load vars from a text file into a load vars object.
var kitchentext = new LoadVars();
kitchentext.load('moccastext.txt');
Once in the object, i thought i could reference them like so
kitchentext.name
kitchentext.style
but i am having trouble doing this.
i have a textbox called displytext.
_root.displaytext.text = kitchentext.name;
doesnt work
Below is the code. When the swf is connected to FMS(the connection is successful) I use this application.user_so.send("enterContestGroup"); to call the client side mothed. You can see that in the client side I have defined the "enterContestGroup" mothed. However the fact is it doesn't call that mothed. Can anybody tell me what the error is
application.onAppStart = function(){ application.user_so = SharedObject.get("user_so", false); application.nextId = 0;}application.onConnect = function(newClient) application.acceptConnection(newClient);

View 4 Repliescan you write and modify XML files using server-side Actionscript? I've been going through Adobe's Server-side Actionscript reference, reading up on the File class that lets you modify files on the server, and the server-side XML class that lets you read and 'understand' XML data, but can you put them together and essentially edit XML files on the server?

View 2 RepliesI had a question about loading external variables. Is it possible to load external variables from a different server other than the one that the flash site is hosted on?
And if so, what would that command look like?
For instance, if you load a variable from the site's own server it might look like this;
loadText.load("TEXT1.txt");
Would loading it from a different server look something like this;
loadText.load("http://www.kirupaforum.com/TEXT1.txt");

View 1 RepliesWe're thinking about purchasing the Flash Media Streaming Server Edition and we have some doubts after looking this edition comparision: [URL]..
1.- It says the streaming edition doesn't have server side play list. Does it mean this version doesn't come with a native application for making playlist on the server side? Could I write an AS application (As I've done with developer edition) to implement server side playlists??
2.- How about the clustering? Could we install an instance of FMS in several servers to make them work as a cluster?

I have two software to create with AIR: a server and a client. Both with AS3 and AIR.I want to avoid having a big architecture with Remote Shared Object, or using BlazeDS, or having to set a Java / Python / ... server in the middle.In order to avoid having to parse socket data in the server and in the client side, I thought about using XMLSocket on the client side: the data arrives in a way which is already parsed by the Flash framework.However, when I use this XMLSocket with the AIR ServerSocket, the "connect" event returns me a raw Socket on the server side. So I have to manually manage the XML data on the server side.
Is there a way to also use an XMLSocket on the server side to communicate with the client? A kind of trick to convert the returned Socket into an XMLSocket?If there is an AS3 library which manages that, I did not find it.
