Flex :: Downloading Data Posted To Server As A File?
Jul 8, 2010
I'm trying to post data up to a server and have it bounced back to me as a file download, prompting the native browser file download box. I know the server part works just fine becasue I can post from a demo web form, but when I run the following Flex 3 code, I can't even get the request to fire.
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();
private function saveXmlAsFile(event:MouseEvent):void
{

I have a flash app that needs to download a file, whose name contains UTF-8 characters.
Internally, the filename is read from a UTF-8 XML file, e.g. "my filé.pdf". The code goes something like this:
url = get_filename_from_XML();
req = new URLRequest( url );
ref = new FileReference();
ref.download( req );
The problem is that the URL is encoded in Latin1, i.e. the é is encoded as %E9 instead of %C3%A9 (according to FireBug). How can I get Flash to encode the URL correctly?

I need to figure out the size of a remote file before I download it.And I know that in local place this can be done as follows
var _filePath:String = "X:/save/abc.exe";
var file:File = new File(_filePath);
if (file.size > 1000)
[code]....
But when I tried a remote file like
var _filePath:String = "http://www.aaa.com/webfile.exe";
It didn't work.And how can I get the size of a remote file before I use
var _downLoadPath:String = "http://www.aaa.com/webfile.exe";

My insuffiecient knowledge about AS2 craves some teaching: I want to know how to add an action to a button within my scene to make it download a file, which is located in the same folder as the .fla and exported .swf. In this case its going to be a .pdf, but I guess my main point is that I just want it to download the file. It should work in both Firefox and Internet Explorer (I don't know if the script has to be different or not?).

I have an xml file (externally saved) that is similar to the following:
[root]
[main]
[title]...[/title]
[Code]....
What I like to do is to get what's in [title] tag using HTTPservice, import it into Flex, and save it as array objects, and do the same thing for [content]. This way I can later refer the array object saying title[0] or content[2].

In an asc file, I am trying to retrieve some data from a server that uses JSON as its exchange format each time someone connects to a specific application. ( I can't control the exchange format)To do that I send a POST using the sendAndLoad method of a LoadVars ObjectSo far I only managed to get the HTTP header. The target object from the sendAndLoad method seems to be empty .he response format from the server is like this :{"result":{"uid":"24947431041778945007157724608309","sid":"20825068196 030559827758762683967"} (I got it by doing a POST with cURL)ince the data doesn't have the attribute=value&attribute2=value2..."format, I think I will not be able to get themoes anyone know if it is possible to first get and then parse these data using either ServerSide ActionScript's API

So to get around Flash security issues, I have a script to upload files to S3 by sending it to a PHP script on my server which then uploads it to S3 with server-side PHP libraries.
Now, I'm looking for a solution to downloading a file from S3 in the same way. I suppose the best way to do it is to somehow make a PHP script that downloads the file from S3, then sends it back to the Flash client?
But the one thing is, I don't want the file to hang around--I'd like to delete it when the process is done. I suppose I can just have the Flash client call another PHP script on the server that deletes the file after the load is finished.

I am using FMS 4.5 and have a simple application which I want to use to send two strings to a php file. But I get a compilation error whenever I try to assign any value to these objects:
Here is main.asc:
<code>
var variables = new LoadVars();
variables.username = "uname";
variables.send(http://url.abc.com/test.php,POST)
</code>
I can't compile with the second line. FMS just says: Sending error message: Compilation error
How do I send variables to a HTTP URL?
