Flash :: Share Cookie / Data Between Multiple Domains And Swf's
Jan 4, 2010
I am trying to create a login system where a user would be able to login inside of one flash game on say, [URL], and then that same login data would be preserved for all the games on [URL] and also the games on [URL] and [URL] I am new to shared objects in flash so if anybody knows of a way to do this in either php, as3, html, js (or a mixture of all) then that would be great.
(PS. I would prefer not to use a method that requires a javascript bridge to retrieve cookies as this is impossible for games that are played on game-portal sites where only a swf file is used)
I have a Singleton class instantiated in Main.swf located at domainA. The file loads Game.swf from domainB via LoaderMax [URL]. When I try to access the Singleton I guess this is not the same as the on instatiated in Main.swf.
I am trying to get my flash file to load data from multiple sources/domains. It works perfectly in the development environment, but as soon as you launch the swf locally or online, it doesn't load the xml data from external domains.
How to share TextArea Component in multiple swfsaylib.swf (has TextArea Componenet)main.swf (Import TextArea Componenet from lib.swf)section.swf (Import TextArea Componenet from lib.swf)
I want to create a flash swf file that will store a token in Local Shared Object. What do I need to do to read that token and look it up in the database on the back end? Is this possible at all?
here is a possible scenario:
User visits my web page A token is generated on the server and stored in the database Token is then saved in LSO User leaves the site (maybe shuts down his computer) and comes back later Token is read, located in the database and the user is recognized (lets say that token is a foreign key that links to other user data stored in the db)
I researched this for quite a while and all I find is that flash can use LSO to store read data for flash movie... Does this mean that the data can not be accessed by the server?
alright.. recently i needed to share data between different flash .swfs on a homepage.. so i tried to use Shared Objects to do so. sofar its fine.. i tried it .. and as long as the data is stored on my harddisk. the sharedObject "cookies" work fine.. but when i put the site online.. they simply dont work anymore..
could this have something to do with security settings of the browser used?.. doesnt a web browser allow flash to access the harddisk to read and write shared objects.. is there another.. simpler and more reliable way to send data from one .swf file to another..?? (without using php -> my webserver doesnt support this sofar )
I just recently created a news ticker using the tutorial on Kirupa; however, I have not been successful at getting my xml data to show up on the news ticker. I have my xml file stored on and my website will be stored on Savannah State University's server. I do not want to have my xml file on the same domain as my website because it will be on my school's server and they don't allow access to their server. I want to be able to update the news ticker freely.
Let's say you wanted a flash movie to load the same SharedObjects no matter where it is accessed. Is this possible and how would you set up the parent movie to transport the SharedObjects?
I am testing a locally run SWF (in debug standalone player) that tries to load data from a remote URL using URLLoader class. I have enabled useNetwork flag in the SWF. As I said, the SWF is running in standalone player, it is not embedded in any page in any browser.As I understand, it still cannot load any external non-visual resource, if the site it tries to load from does not have a crossdomain.xml file, or if that file does not include the domain hosting my SWF. Correct?

I've written an app that parses Atom and RSS feeds from a few popular sites, and reacts to this data. Everything works fine when I run the .swf locally, but fails when uploaded. Is there a security setting I should be aware of?
I work in a theatre and I'm looking to create a seat map that can be shown to members of the public as they book their seats, so they can see where they are going to be sitting. The main problem I've come up against is that the person viewing the application, will not be using it. I need the Box Office clerk to be able to input data, and then the seating plan shows the seats on a second monitor (public facing)
What I thought of doing was to create 2 flash applications and used Shared Objects to pass data from one to the other. In the Clerk application, they would input the seats that are being requested and click Submit (or whatever). In the Public application, these seats would then be highlighted. Ideally, another dynamic image would change to show the view from that general area of seating.
I've just started out working with cookies in flash and looked at the poms tutorials [URL]Is there a list of commands that could get the users browser software etc for example?
how can I share a libary over multiple swf's? Case: I made a few different swf's which all use one or two components, is it possible to create a shared libary, so that only one swf, the main swf, has to compile these components? Otherwise every swf is 20kb bigger than needed
I have a bunch of games each in there own directory with there own classes. I need to make 1 global directory with a class in it that all my games can use.
The reason for this is if I need to make a change to this class, I don't want to have to keep copying it into each game folder.
In Flash CS5 it seems like there's an option to import .swc files into the library, but as an RSL (runtime shared library).
What's the difference between this option (swc) and using a runtime shared library .swf file?
Also, if you select a .swc file, and choose the "info" ("i") icon, there seems to be several options for .swc..."merged into code", "external", "runtime shared library":
I have a Flex application that I'm working on for a new job. It's sort of a training wheels application -- I'm learning the language, and this isn't an app that needs to talk to a service in order to do its job. There are a few instances of combo boxes throughout the application that share the same set of possible values (say, a selection of states: "In Progress", "Rejected", "Complete") that I want to have use the same data source.
If I have one MovieClip which has two frame, each frame has a 1K Bitmap.When I create three instance of this MovieClip, Is these three instance share the same memory which will only cost 2K memory or they has their own memory which will cost 2K * 3 memory?
I have multiple scenes. In each scene I load lot of movie clips.I move from one scene to another scene and may come back to the already visited scene.
1. From one scene if I move to some other scene will it flush or unload the scene with the movie clips or they will be still floating in the memory? If it is going to be in the memory with the loaded movies how can I unload them when I move from Scene to Scene?
2. Can I reuse a loaded movie in one scene, in another scene? Basically can I share the same loaded movie in multiple scenes?
I have an application where I'm loading in XML data externally. What i'm trying to figure out is the best way to store this data in my application so that I can pass the relevant XML or data to my custom classes.
Basically I have a navigation and gallery class I have written both of which are instantiated on the document class, I would like to pass them each their corresponding XML. My question is whether I should store or seperate the xml into objects in the document class first, or simply pass each class its own xml node? Is there another/more preferable way to handle XML data between custom classes?
I recently completed a project for a custom report UI in Flex. Now, I've been tasked with creating a new application that is essentially a "lite" version of the original UI. It will include only a few of the options that are in the original application. Also, it needs to be a separate application.
I do not want to duplicate my code, so I am planning on moving a bunch of the classes from the original application to a new library that can be shared by both applications. However, I'm trying to figure out how to make this work in my MVC environment.
For example, I have an Accordion component that lets users filter several items. Each Accordion child is an instance of a custom component with two lists (one for entities available for selection, the other for the entities the user has selected). Each child component has properties bound to the Model and functions that call Cairngorm Events.[code]...
I've been working in as3 for quite a while now, trying various methods of loading in XML and parsing it between custom classes - from storing the XML data using objects, storing it in arrays and then parsing it to my custom classes, or parsing XML nodes directly between their relevant classes. how best to store and parse data from XML throughout my classes.
Should I be extracting it all in the document class first, into arrays or objects, and then parsing the array or object to the relevant class? Or simply parsing the XML node that relates to the class and extracting the data there?I've also heard that looping through XML and storing the data in multi-dimentional arrays before parsing it, is the way to go.. some have also suggested using a separate public data class or singleton class to store all the variable data from xml.. and referencing it globally in each class.

I am using a local connection to share data between 2 apps. The receiver has a function that runs every time new data is sent. I need to run another function every time that function runs, how can i do this?
After a lot of experiments and reading many articles, Q&As, I still didn't find the answers to my problem, then I decided to ask my question at great stackoverflow forum:-)
The setup of my project is as follows:
- Create an AS3 project in Flash Builder 4 (Main.as3proj), and write source code in it; - Create graphical assets in Flash CS5; - Load the graphical assets in the AS3 project;
In the graphical assets (swfs), there are text fields, we would like to use Embedded fonts for the text fields. But we don't want to embed the fonts in all swfs, we want to create a swf as a font library (FontLib.swf), that embed all the fonts needed across all the graphical assets (swfs).
After loading or embedding the FontLib.swf to the main application (Main.swf), the embedded fonts is availabe: TextField.isFontCompatible(myFontName, myFont)
is true. And when I create a TextField with the embedded font at runtime, it works fine. But besides this, I want to use the embedded fonts for the TextFields in other graphical assets like what I described at the begging, but when I try to change the text for the dynamic text field in a movie clip, the text field will disappear. (Before changing the text, it can be displayed because Flash CS5 automatically embed the fonts for the characters already input in the fla/swf file).
I tried to clone the text field with the same properties of the text field in the movie clip and replaced the old one, as I said, this works as other text fields created at run time. But I have other problem with cloning and replacing the text fields in movie clip. I wonder if there is a way to instruct the flash player to use the externally loaded embedded fonts for the text fields in movie clip.
I am trying to have one single loader for different buttons to load their specific target. lets say I have btnOne and btnTwo, each of them have their page to link to, btnOne to pageOne, btnTwo to pageTwo, page one and two are external swfs. so can I load them into stage by sharing one single loader?

I need to save email-id in my login form through the cookies. if I use shared object I am able to save but my requirement is need to save in cookies. How can I save? I got sample code from net. Attaching that code `package com {
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
/** * The Cookie class provides a simple way to create or access * cookies in the embedding HTML document of the application.
