Flash :: Why Is TextInput Updating After Hit FileReferencer.browse Button A Second Time
Jun 20, 2011
In Flex 4, I am trying to make a simple browse button update the text field of an TextInput object with the file name that the browse button gets. It doesn't have to be the full path, all I want is the file name to show up. It only shows up after hitting the browse button for a second time, not after I have selected my file the first time. Here is my code:
import flash.net.FileReference;
private var fileReferencer:FileReference = new FileReference();
private var excelFilter:FileFilter = new FileFilter("*.xlsx", "*.xlsx;*.xls;");
protected var fileName:String = new String("");
[Code]....
So to recap, the file name is only shown in my TextInput box upon hitting the browse button a second time.

We're currently building a fairly big dynamic website, and I was wondering if there was a way to have an animation that updates and move in real time as there's action on the site. Ex. red bulbs light up each time a user posts something on the forum or whatever. It'd be all related to the mysql database.

I was wondering if there is a way to do a browse button for a field in flash, a la php where you click it, you can navigate a file you want to upload, and it populates the file in the text field (basically a file upload type of thing). i know that you will need to use php/mysql to go along with it

With this you select a file and the path will appear as a string in the textfield. Now the thing I want is to call the function, when I click a button in Flash, that chooses a file and passing the string back to flash, to put it there in a textfield. But how do you call that function?

I am trying to have my image uploader have a browse button and submit button (because the submit button will be sending information from a few text fields as well and they need to be sent at the same time).
I've been fiddling around with it and I can't seem to figure it out.. I tried just having the browse function on a separate button but im failing miserably..
Code:
System.security.allowDomain("http://dev3.webcanada.com/clients/starwood/GB-Historybook/pages/write.php");
import flash.net.FileReference;
// The listener object listens for FileReference events.

I have done the implementation of displaying time. but it is not updating the time dynamically. Only the values which are taken from system are displayed on display.
I have the following simple code:
public var date;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,enterFrameHandl er);
private function enterFrameHandler(event:Event):void
{
[Code].....
Text box is defined as dynamic text. get the time updating dynamically.

On the website will be a downloadable file with a password.Since the beginning of the promotion there will be single letters added each hour. Probably only one visible at the time.Since this action takes place during weekend and i don't want to spend it in front of a computer updating the letters manually each hour i was wondering if there is a script which will do it for me.There is a restriction though - the whole password cannot be included in the swf file (obvious security reasons).

I want to design a web page that will display a visual aid representing real time data. Real time for me means updating at least every few seconds, or literally realtime/event based if that is possible. The data displayed will be displayed in a rather visual/graphical way rather than simple text or a table.
I do not have a lot of knowledge of web development other than a little knowledge of HTML, so I do not know what options are available to create a web page that does what I want. My search has seemed to point towards Flash as being the technology best suited to do this, but I have also seen several articles which caution against flash (but mention no alternative).
The main alternative contender instead of Flash seems to be Comet style programming which I understand would likely utilize (in my case at least) a system called "long polling" to update data regularly. This could work, however the nature of the way I would like the information displayed leads me to believe that flash might be better than this as it sounds like longpolling is well suited for simple display of text inofrmation based on results, whereas I will need certain details of the visual display to change as well depending on results.
My research has also lead me to believe that an ASP.NET or PHP page would almost do what I want, but my understanding is that these two frameworks'/ languages' purpose is more along the lines of generation of a unique web page when loading rather than updating it as someone is looking at it.To make sure it is clear: communiciation is COMPLETELY one way in my imaginary web page. the user's display needs to update but they in no way send data back.What tools are best suited to create a webpage which will update/display (in a visual manner) data in real time in as someone is viewing it?
edit:
after finding this article: How does facebook, gmail send the real time notification?, I am thinking Comet could still be a really good option as I can just use it really as the messenger of events rather than having the direct result displayed as text or something. Still looking for advice on which way may be easier though due to my impression that Flash may be easier to program the graphics in a dynamic way.

Is anybody able to figure out what's wrong with this (or specifically why it doesn't work in mac browsers)?
[URL]
I've tried lots of different options including the yamago component [URL]. The yamago component works but I don't like the complexity of the code, it's difficult to edit. It also doesn't work in safari on a MAC.
My example above is the simplest version I've been able to get working but unfortunately only on PC.

Can you by any means of java script or anything else get a browse window to pop up from within flash? Return the selected file, or even get a php script to upload it?

im making a flash upload thingy for my site, it has options to set the expiry time of the file, each time has a button which needs to be made from an array (which comes forma php script, not really relevent)... here is my code..
ActionScript Code:
if (vars.options == undefined){[code]....
i know the x values are too small but they should still all appear on the stage right ?, only the final item in the array appears...i think i might be replacing the previous one with the new one.

We have an issue were the server session associated with a Flex client times out when the browse file dialog is open for a time longer then the configured session timeout. It seems that on some players, the playback is stopped when browse or download on a FileReference is executing. This also causes remote calls to be blocked and hence our manual keep-alive messages are not sent to the server, resulting in a session timeout. I searched for some info on this in the docs and found a notice of it, but it does not explicitly list the players it does (not) work. Would anyone know were I could find a complete list?

I know very little about Flash so I apologize in advance for asking what is possibly a dumb question, although I did a fair bit of research before posting. Our current Flash app, written in AS3.0, is able to display a standard OS browse dialog for the purpose of allowing a user to select files. We are using [URL] to display this dialog.
The documentation for FileReferenceList states that only files could be selected. The new requirement is to allow the user to select directories as well as files. Afterward it would be very nice, but not required, to be able to get a recursive list of all the files in the selected directory. Is it possible to implement this in Flash running inside a browser? The closest I've seen so far is [URL] which does what I want but it only seems to work inside Adobe AIR and is not exposed to the browser.

Is there any way to get full path of a file which the user selects after clicking the browse button... ive read somewhere that using the FileReference in ActionScript we can pop up the browse dialog box by using the
FileReference.browse();
is there any way to extract the file path from this?Actually i need to use that path to Load the image later in the APPLICATION..

We have noticed a possible bug in the Flash Player within Mac's latest OS version Snow Leopard.
When a Browse for file dialog is initiated, upon returning to the browser. It's as if there is a layer above the flash app which stops interaction with the mouse. MouseOver events no longer take place and a click is require to remove this layer. If you move your mouse at all after the click this invisible layer returns limiting interaction.
We have tested this with 2 macs running snow leopard and the latest Flash Player. And also verified it is not an issue on Mac OSX previous to Snow Leopard.
It seems to effect only FF and Safari. Opera functions correctly.. Here is a video we created documenting the problem: [URL]
We have not had any customers complain about this yet. But if it's infact a bug, it's just a matter of time.

This is the first time i am working in action script. I have seen a flash programmer working with it. since i know javascript i was able to work in action script. I am creating a file upload component for my php projects. Until now i have advanced to show the file dialog box using the FileReference api. The select event is not firing for me. and i did not get any error.
