I'm using mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to retrieve data from a web service. On the initial call to "loadWsData", HTTPservice accurately retrieves all the data.
However, on any and all subsequent calls HTTPService does not accurately retrieve the data; rather it always retrieves the first data set. I've confirmed that the web service is providing accurate data, both from web browsers and a ruby ws client script.

What is the actionscript 3 syntax for retrieving the frame number that our object is currently in ?
View 2 RepliesI have to populate an Advanced Data Grid which have the following fields: Continent->State->Society-->Actual Value-->Estimate Value I want to simulate a financial market so i have to change some of the values by asynchronous request from an HTTPService; If necessary i'll post the .as file, but it is generated automatically by Flex Builder.
Here's the code of the client side Flex/Air application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute"
[Code].....
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].
i have a datagrid which grows in size depending on the result of a call to my db. The call to the database returns an object with 30+ values for each row. When the number of rows returned exceeds about 80-90 the datagrid renders odd. It displays the first 50-60 rows fine but then it displays blank rows and they even continue to display outside the border of the datagrid.what is happening? Im using mxml webservice to retrieve the data.
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{resultsData}" rowCount="{resultsData.length}" allowDragSelection="false"
id = "confRoomLookupResults" width="948"

I'm trying to send some data to PHP using HTTPService POST but for some reason it's not working. The same example works with GET but not with POST:
private function start():void{
var param:Object = {};
param.date = "2010-10-10";
[code]....
But when I change the method in HTTPService to GET and in PHP I get the result as expected - PHP sends back the date:
2010-10-10
I know that httpService in Flex can configure the data as an object, but I want to do the same thing, but with URLLoader. Is that possible and how would I do it?
View 2 RepliesI'm getting really annoyed by Flex. Is there a way to make it wait for an httpservice to get its data without having to use a timer?
At the moment my code looks like this:
protected function loginUser(event:MouseEvent):void
{
if(txtEmail.text == "" || txtPassword.text == "")
{
[Code].....
When I do user.login(), it sends a request with a HTTPservice from my external AS class. In the result event handler for this httpservice, I set a public variable to true or false, depending on whether the user's credentials are correctly in the DB.
I then use a getter to get that boolean value. However, without the timer, it always returns false because my code is faster than the event result handler. If that makes sense.
So I have to use a timer to stall my application for one second.. But seriously, that doesn't make sense to me. There has to be a better way, no?
send xml data to the server using HttpService request thr POST in Flex?
View 1 RepliesI want to use an HTTPService to load some data (number of columns and number of rows) which change randomly by a certain frequency I get the string like freq#ncols#nrows#value.

I've doing a bit of "training" at working with Flex and Remote Data from XML files.This is my HTTPService
<mx:HTTPService id="loginData" url="com-handler/basic.xml" showBusyCursor="true">
</mx:HTTPService>
I have a button and when its clicked its call a function, that calls loginData.send and does a little IF condition, that IF condition relies on the data returned by loginData.The condition doesn't work because its called right next to the loginData.send, and .send method still didn't returned the values from the XML file. But if you click it a second time a second after the first click the IF condition works.So to deal with i wanted to do a eventListener so that when loginData.send returned the data from the XML it fires up the IF condition. But i don't know how to do it.
I'm experimenting with data retrieval from xml spreadsheets. I have 5 links in the xml labelled:

View 2 RepliesI have XML data that is loaded into a mulitdimensional array.
I would like to call that information later in my actionscript but it seems that the array has not populated before I want to use it.
I am using the onload() method of the XML object.
I can trace the contents of the array directly after it is loaded with my loop, but later in the code a trace returns "undefined". My array is globally scoped.
I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I'm looking to retrieve a string from an embedded XML file, using a variable as the XML element's name. Here's what my code currently looks like, although it doesn't quite work:
Code:
private final function getAreaTitle(_index:int):String
{
var _element:String = map_XML.mapnode.@title[_index];
[Code]....
I'm not massively familiar with the XML format, so apologies if I've not explained myself very well. As you can hopefully see, I have one XML file containing my map data and another containing my text, such as area titles and locations. What I'm trying to retrieve in the example above is the string with the label "title_training" from the "text_XML" file. Of course, the function should be able to return the title for any area, so I need to find a way of converting "_element" in to the right format
I have a page, written in php that recives and ID value for Album information stored in an XML file. The XML File contains a links to "Samples": I'm trying to get my flash file to "retrive" the data (the ID value) from the php page (the flash file will be embedded), and make a list of samples that can be played. A sorta of an Audioplayer. I already know how to retrive XML data, but the retrival of the ID value from the PHP is a puzzle for me...

how to create a form submission and retreiving data from it. Is it possible to create /link our data to Microsoft Access? whats the difference between get and post ?how will we retrive data using both methods?
View 4 RepliesI'm developing an AS3 module where the user interacts with certain hardware. One part is highlighting the hardware's features when the user hovers certain points on it. There's quite a lot of work to be done here (about 6 modules with about 30 highlights each) so I figured I would make it as changeable as possible.
On the stage I've placed all instances of a movieclip that acts as the pointer for the highlights. This movieclip uses a class that animates it upon mouseover/mouseout (hence only two animation functions are required for them all). At the same time I want to display a unique text for every point, and this is where the trouble comes in.
I figured I could attach data with each instance to the class somehow, and then create a new text field upon accessing the class. This is what I came up with:
Code:
// Features
f1.name = "V�xla mellan anv�ndnings- och vilol�ge.";
f2.name = "Display.";
f3.name = "Visa den elektroniska programguiden.";
[code]....
As you can see I tried using the instance property name to attach the data, it failed though (I didn't get a compile error for this but I couldn't retrieve the data in the class).How would you approach this? Do I have to create a variable for each instance's data, then match them (same number etc.)?
The form is in a component lauched as a popUp, form data consists in:
login:String
password:String
I thought of a few different ways, but I don't like them..in the popUp, send button triggers a function that gets the form values and stores them in an Object, then saves the Object in the model, then dispatches a CreateSessionEvent. The CreateSessionCommand execute method is called, and it send the HTTPService passing the object from the model. (but then what if the model somehow doesn't get update and I send the same request twice?) I could try to get the form data from the command execute method itself.. how can I access them though, since it is a popUp (created with PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, LoginDialog),true))
