In flash, is it possible to have your application check that the environment it is running on is "recognized". If so, how do you go about doing it? I want to put my swf on my website and prevent people using it on their site.
View 1 RepliesI have an air application that loads a swf ( built in flex ) , this swf loads moduls and basicaly my air application is a testing environment for this swf .
when i run it in flex environment ( eclipse ) it runs fine , when i run it from my programs ( as an air program ) it gets stuck , what i was thinking is that it has to do with security issues because it gets stuck when my main swf try to loads the moduls .
We are planning a desktop client application with Adobe AIR. The client app will be delivered to our customers with a database, which contains monthly updated marketing data provided by our company. As different customers will buy different sets of data from us, for example, a customer is only interested in marketing data in a specific product category, while another customer need all data in a certain region. After a customer installs this client app, new data will be emailed to the customer every month.
So, the requirement is to keep the data accessible only by the customer who bought it. After reading through AIR's secure local store and database encryption feature, I came up with the following design: each customer will have his own secret key (stored in AIR's secure local store), the secret key is used to encrypt the data that the customer has purchased. Of course, the monthly data that we sent to the customer will be encrypted using the same secret key. So my questions are: is AIR's database encryption and secure local store secure enough for this use case? If someone gets the encrypted database file, can he decrypt the DB?
i don't know how to say that in technical terms. and i think this is the reason to why i cant get good answer from Google.i have xampp on my local winxp machine. i use it for developing websites locally then upload these files to my clients shared hosting accounts.
the problem that in 2 years i have always found differences between how xampp works and how the web server work.some code work locally but dont remotely and the opposite. also flash behave differently on xampp than the remote web server.is there is a way i can get the server configuration and use it with xampp like get the server php.ini and use it with xampp?
I'm trying to get a custom flash gallery going by using the loadMovie command with Jpeg's. I must use this method as it's what is required by our project. I am trying to figure out some way to make an array to keep all of my image names and then detect which button is being pressed and have it call the corresponding number within the array.Currently I have some code that is working quite well but not fully
Code:
stop();
var thumbArray:Array = ["i1", "i2", "i3", "i4", "i5"];[code]........
I have two buttons currently instanced named i1 and i2.The trace is working and calling "i1" but for some reason even though i set i1 = "thejpeg.jpg" it isn't calling the jpeg.I can upload my file if necessary.Also i'm going to need to be able to unload the opened jpeg by clicking anywhere off of the jpeg's area, .i know how to unload a jpeg but I don't know how to detect when you click any surrounding area of it.
I wanted to use Cs4 to edit a flash template but noticed it kept saying I did not have tahoma font installed. I checked the font folder and I did have the font installed on the system but nevertheless I reinstalled it which did not fix the problem so I manually mapped/substituted it to the Tahoma I had on my system but noticed the fonts still appeared off when I published. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software and it still occurs.
View 3 RepliesI'm writing an application which uses cookie-based sessions for authentication. All was well until I tried to integrate the uploadify jQuery plugin into my site. I need uploadify to send the files to my upload.php file. When I check the existence of any preknown session variables in that upload.php script, I get nothing. I've tried print_r($_SESSION) and got an empty array.
I'm not sure if this a problem with my php sessions code or my jquery uploadify code. I'm somewhat new at both.

how to make secure SWF files, so that decompilers like sothink won't be able to decompile these swf files at all. i have been assigned some research work to find out the stuff to make swf files highly secured
View 1 RepliesI have a Flash app that makes periodic calls (using URLRequest and URLLoader) to the same server that hosts it, to check if the current session has expired or not.The problem with this is a man in the middle can spoof a valid response.Is there a generally accepted way to validate a response?Would using 'https' in URLRequest(url) invoke https protocol, would that be sufficient? I'm not a security expert, but would that check if the site is who they say they are, just like the browser?
View 0 RepliesI'm building a flash-game-site for a while. The big trouble is Secure Score Submitting System .I search on the net and find some ineffective techniques:
-Secret word method: there is an secret word (crypto pass) on the server and flash gets it from server and uses for crypting score data then sends it to server. But the algoritm that does the crypto job, can be accesible with a swf decompiler. Also getting the secret word from server outside of flash is simple. Not safe!
-HTTP_REFERER method: php (or what else) check HTTP_REFERER data to determine where the post coming from. But with a simply firefox extensions, the referer header can be changed. Not safe!
That is my own idea but can only make cracking harder, not more:
-We can get flash vars with js (:swliveconnect) and send to server. Flash just make a fake submit that makes no effect. Just a trick. But not safe
1) I'm trying to create a Flash Login Form but I guess its working with ASP or PHP. Can I make Flash to check usernames from any local mdb? As long as project doesn't require internet connection, excel or sqlite will be enough for me.
2) This question is related to first question. If I cant use a mdb file it seems I'll need to embed all those 5.000 users in flash project, am I correct? Also projects SWF file is 50mb. It will work from CD source, would that cause any problem? I've made it all in one SWF file for security
I'm working on a portfolio. Right now theres two buttons that both expand and close the box which contains my content. The only problem is once the box is expanded (viewing about me for example) and you clicked the contact me part, the box would just close and not re-open. So what I need to know how to do is to close the box and have it re-open with new content.This has to be done in actionscript because that was my challenge so please do not give me other solutions such as making more MovieClips,
View 5 RepliesI have a method which registers an event listener to each of the MovieClips in an array I have. The method is inside a class, and so is the listener function. The problem is, I'm getting an error that's says "Access of undefined property handleNavToggle", even though is declared.

I was wondering if its possible to have a link recognized by flash within a text loaded in as a htmlText. So, I have a link inside a html document. I am loading that inside the flash movie. How do I make flash recognize if someone presses the link?
View 1 RepliesI am using a progam called Smart Fox Server and they said on the forum that It's not SmartFox related (and this forum is mainly for SFS related issues). You need to create these interaction within Flash. So I came here. I am trying to get the users Id if you click on them. I know the command to get the ID but i dont know how to get flash to recgognise the avatar as a user.
the command is user.getId()
is it possible using actionscript to determine what operating system the flash projector is running on. I'm producing a swf that is to run from a cd-rom and so will be published as an .exe for windows and a .app for mac...parts of the presentation change depending on what os the user is running it on. I don't want to have to publish, change things and then republish. If it were a swf embedded on a web page, the browser would provide all those details...

View 3 RepliesI need to transfer data from a flash application running in a browser to a server running php. If I use an https connection will that be enough to ensure that the data sent from flash to the server is encrypted and sensitive data can't be sniffed, or do I need to do encryption in my flash application itself?
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know a 100% secure way to transfer a variable from Flash to PHP. I have a SSL on my site, but I've been told that using the loadvars cmd is about as unsecure as you can get, even if your page is secure.One of the suggestions was Flash Remoting, can anyone confirm that this is a safe way to send a secure variable?
View 2 RepliesI know there are a lot of topics already on this. I have read (hundreds of) them and I'd still like your input.
If I have a flash UI that takes user input and passes it to PHP; is this secure?
I have read that, yes, this is okay. I have also read that no, you need to encrypt the data, by say hashing it before sending to PHP. OK, easy, I do this already but.....
In my case I have the data/password stored (when the user inputs it, not in the swf of course) and sent every time I want to access any PHP (using AMFPHP). The PHP check this password each time and only runs if it gets the correct password. So in this case if I hash the password, it makes no difference, it just changes what the password is rather than providing any actual security (well maybe minimal because it's less recognizable).
So can someone extract a password that is sent from flash to PHP?
I have been trying to promote a new web site written entirely in full browser flash. Nobody at all was comfortable with the idea of checking out inside of flash (even though its just as secure). So I went to the only method I could think of which is a getUrl into a new window with my https checkout page. Well, I guess with popup blockers and such... this is proving to be a disaster. I am losing most of my customers after two or three attempts to checkout according to my logs. They either cant figure out how to allow the popup or it spits them out and they lose the order.
Okay so im pretty frustrated. Then I start thinking about how I am calling facebooks java api from within flash to popup requests in front of my flash movie. Maybe there is some method like this? Something I can do via external interface? I really have to get this figured out as soon as possible. I am very curious to see what people here have done about this issue.
Working on personal full flash site and I can't really figure out how to make MC's position on Stage aligned on Firefox browser. Everything goes fine using Safari.
I have tried a method of set a timer every time it goes off (every 200 ms or so) it checks to see if stage.stageWidth > 0. If that is the case, do stop the timer and start resize on stage. However it's still not working on Firefox of MAC. :(
In my HTML code:
<link href="css/site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Test Site
<script type="text/javascript">
var swf = new SWFObject("main.swf", "mymovie", "100%", "100%", "10", "#000000");
swf.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");

I have a text input box on a site i'm currently building. Problem is, when testing it, some letters don't register as being pressed (and no, its not my keyboard before you ask hehe).
The letters which don't show up are, "B,C,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,Q,T,U,V,X,Y,Z". In fact, the only letters that are recognized and displayed when I type into it are: "A,D,O,P,R,S,W".
I've made an external preloader (loader.swf) that loads another file (test.swf) - it works fine. However, if I change the test.swf-file with a new version, I have to clear my browsers cache to "update" the new version.
CTRL+F5 only seem to check for a new version of the loader.swf - i cannot force update the file which the loader checks for.
So to the question, is there an easy way to have the preloader check for a new version of the test.swf?
I would like to have menuItems with checks that show what element of the menu has been selected. I know it is possible to have checks with XML. But is it possible to have variables in XML because the elements of my menu are variables. If there is a component on sale that has exactly the design of the flash component menuBar + menu and that is more easy to program,
View 0 RepliesI have a pure AS3 project created in Flash Builder and I am trying to use fl.controls.Slider. I decided to link the fl library as a SWC. I downloaded one from here and included it in the project Library path. And then I instantiate the slider this way (this is in the main Sprite):
var s:Slider = new Slider();
addChild(s);
No compile error, but when I launch the project, I get the following runtime error:

View 1 RepliesAlright so I'm making a website for my friends band, and they want to have a music player to play their MP3's. One of the things I'm concerned about though, is the security of the MP3 files. Their albums are on iTunes to buy, so I'm looking for what the best option to have the MP3s be played but not be able to be downloaded and saved.The best thing I can think of is embedding the MP3's inside a Flash music player, but that would be more work than it's worth it seems.
View 2 RepliesThe title pretty much describes it all.. According to the information of the Acer T231H Monitor, it should be able to detect simple gestures. When tracing Multitouch.supportsGestureEvents it returns false. Same goes for supportsTouchEvents. Is this because Windows wants to use the monitor as a mouse? Google doesn't turn up any useful information about this problem. Note, I have installed the monitor driver from the Acer website.
