I will be creating a program to use for data entry. I'll be studying zebras in kenya and I won't have the internet there as I'm recording the data. I'd like to be able to send the data I generate in flash to an external text file. I understand I need some sort of script to do that, but is this something I can run just on my machine? (I'll probably make the data into xml format).

I have this Simple Flash banner, that loads text, colors, and entire banner hyperlink from external .txt file into flash.For importing text into dynamic text fields with ïż½varsïż½ set i use
loadVariables("http://www.mysite.com/DIR/data.txt","");
For importing hyperlink onto flash button i use two layers:On blank layer i use:
loadVariables("http://www.mysite.com/DIR/data.txt","");
On button itself i use:
on (release) {
getURL(link1, "_blank");
}
Button has instance set also.Everything works fine and nicely.I use this HTML script to use banner in any website i like:
<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash4/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"
id="name" width="468" height="60">
[code]....
Ok So everything works nicely. I load flash i load text, and i also load hyperlink. So after a happy job i went to sleep and other morning i tried to enter website with HTML code, that shows flash and i noticed:
1. Some times flash loads animation, but doesn't load my data.txt and places where dynamic text should be are blank, also hyperlink doesnt work, because it also seems to fail to load.
2. So i press "Refresh" on explorer and data loads perfectly.
3. So i keep pressing refresh some times try to turn of explorer and i noriced that some times it fails to load data and only non dynamic flash animation is played, and some times it loads it nicely.

how to embed a value into a dynamically created MovieClip within an external file (.as) that I can access in my .fla file when the MovieClip is clicked.
I have created an external file (.as) that draws a series of adjacent boxes with a number in sequence on top of them. That much works OK, but I want to load it into a Flash file that will do math calculations based on the number of the box.
Here's my .as file.
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code]....
How, for example, can I get the "slide_number.text" box to say something like "The square of this number is ..." and the square of the figure?

The sample file is example.php

I have a simple swf file which loads data from an external XML file.At present, the user types the filename of the XML file they wish to load.Is it possible for Flash to 'read' the filenames of all of the available XML files in the folder and then present these filenames in a drop down list for example? Then, instead of typing filenames, the user would just click on the XML file they wanted to load.

How to Fetch the images from given URL in Flash builder
View 2 Replies
Sep 15, 2009
1. How could I make it where some images/text in a flash file is taken from another outside file. For example lets say I have a image and text that would need to change constantly. The image could probably be done by using a url and changing the image set to that url, but I would rather have it search for a images file name on my computer. For the text is there a way I could use a text document, and have it set up to take the text in that document and display it.
2. How can I make it so when I click a link to an outside url it doesn't confirm that I want to visit it.

I'm loading text from an external file (a notepad). Now all I want is to be able to change the text by loading text from another external file when a certain button is pressed. Basically, I got this as my default text which loads automatically at the start:
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("data.txt");
loadText.onLoad = function() {
title.text = this.title;
info.text = this.info;
body.text = this.body;
};
But now I want to load text from a different file (data2.txt) by the press of a button. I also have a transition animation so work with me. It would be...
b3.onRelease = function() {
if (_root.section != "photos.swf") {
//I also got this pic (swf) that changes on the button release//
_root.section = "photos.swf";
_root.transition.gotoAndPlay("closing");
So what exactly do I add to be able to change the text source?
