I have a flash player embedded on page page.php?user=john using swfobject. The player calls the xml file content.php to get the results. I'm trying to get the user name from the url id. and fetch results based on that. I can get the username on page.php by doing $_GET['user'], but how can i pass that to content.php. Having read allot of articles online, i did the following,I'm embedding the flash on page.php using swfobject like this
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {user:"<?php $_GET[user] ?>"};
var so = new SWFObject("<?php echo $index->CFG['site']['url'];?>preview2.swf", "sotester",
im trying weeks now to solve this problem but nothing yet
If someone could just tell me how to pass variables from flash to php and the opposite
I'm looking to send a list of variables (say 6 in total) from php to flash and for flash to pick a random one and send it back to php when clicking a button.
I would like it to appear in a dynamic text box. That randomly selected variable needs to be sent back to php on pressing a button.

View 6 Repliesi am trying to load the variables from parent(flash) to child(flash).Its working fine,.
parent swf:(flash)
var parentMessage:String = "Hello";
var swf:MovieClip;
var l:Loader = new Loader();
[Code].....
for some reason, whenever I dynamically load a swf on a $(document).ready() by writing to a div, I am unable to make javascript calls to the browser. Specifically, all calls to the browser return "null". This does not occur when embedding the swf normally on the page load, but I would like to prevent loading of the swf until a specified point in time.
What the heck is going on here? Is there something special about dynamically embedding a swf that prevents the swf from talking to the browser? The methods ARE called (I've proven such by showing alerts), but all return values to any function, regardless of type returned, shows as null when it gets to flash.
I am trying to create this html elements dynamically on the onload of my page,however;when I run it the code wont work on IE8 but okay in firefox,safari,and others.

How can I pass a variable to javascript in actionscript 2?
View 1 RepliesI tried to send a string from an html page (with javascript) to a swf file (action script 2). i searched in google, found this page. but the example code (version 1, not 2, you can find it in the source file .zip) didn't work in IE (IE said: object doesn't support this property or method) where is the problem? (i don't want to use SWFObject.)

I have a swf file and i want to able to fullscreen this swf file using javascript. I have a button to access function inside of swf but it gives me error. I searched over google but nothing good i found. Is it impossible or i do something wrong?
View 3 RepliesI've been trying to communicate flash and javascript some time now, but I can't get Javascript to send variables to flash, just the other way around. When the .swf is done loading, it succesfully triggers the "isReady" function in Javascript, but when i try to trigger the "sendToFlash" function in Flash(via javascript), nothing happens.
"thisMovie("myID").sendToFlash(toFlash);" this is the code I can't get to work, as you see I tried these to as well;
document.getElementById("myID").sendToFlash(toFlas h);
document["myID"].sendToFlash(toFlash);
nothing triggers the code.
JAVASCRIPT
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var isIE = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE") != -1) ? true : false;

When testing the code inside flash or the SWFplayer it works but online inside the html page it dosent complete.
Code:
on (release) {
s_mess.s_film.loadVariables("http://website.com/web/web","POST");
}
All the varibles load just fine but when the SWF is inside the html page it dosnt work.
I have a simple banner that has three choices. A, B, and C. When a user clicks on one of the choices...I just need a counter to make note of it...in some remote file. Php I would guess.So the end result is that you could access the php file and see that choice A was clicked however many times, and choice B was clicked so many times, etc.But I am not a Php guy and don't know what syntax to use to make this happen.

View 2 RepliesI've ran into a weird problem while trying to send a JSON command to my company's flash player. Basically, i am unable to pass a playlist to this player - nothing happens - using the following command:
player.sendEvent("LOAD_PLAYLIST", json_str);
but the weirdest part is that if I print the entire command using Firebug's console.log, copy it and paste it into the code (thus hardcoding the playlist), everything works like a charm.
For instance, the following code:
player.sendEvent("LOAD_PLAYLIST", "{"streams": [{"src": "rtmp://xxx.xxx.xx:80/redirectvodxxx/nas2.share/h264/512x384/progname1/prog_1_20110804.mp4"},{"src": "rtmp://xxx.xxx.xx:80/redirectvodxxx/nas2.share/h264/512x384/progname2/prog_2_20110804.mp4"},{"src": "rtmp://xxx.xxx.xx:80/redirectvodxxx/nas2.share/h264/512x384/progname3/prog_3_20110804.mp4"}]}");
was obtained using
console.log('[loadNewListofContents] playing the following content list: player.sendEvent("LOAD_PLAYLIST", ' + json_str.toString() + ');');
and if i hardcode it, it works!I've tried all the toString() tricks I can think of (ex: json_str.toString(), '"' + json_str.toString() + '"', etc...) but so far no such luck.

Im having a bit of trouble integrating dynamic variables pulled from a databse using an ASP script with a flash movie.
Background:
I need to send variables stored in a ms sql db to a flash movie to display several values.
The dyanmic element comes in because i am using an ID to select the values from the db e.g id1 = joe bloggs id2 = paul smith
etc
When i am hardcoding the id in the asp script the variables are sent to the flash movie no probs and they display correctly.
I am also printing the asp code on the page and that all displaying fine.
HOWEVER, the issue arises when i make the asp code dynamic and by that i mean I am using request.querystring to pull the id
from the URL - The print out of the asp code is still displaying the correct variables, BUT they are not being passed to the
flash movie at all - the placeholder is blank there isn't event an error!!.
Couple of things to note -
- if you change the id bit of the url in the dynamic script to the printed asp code changes
- THE FLASH MOVIE IS IDENTIAL in both scenarios
- all variable names have remained the same
- it is NOT a location of file issue as we have tested the dynamic code files In another folder and no joy
- we are not using any other file includes or asp code in any of the page - all other code has been stripped out
THE ISSUE WE HAVE IS THAT THE PRINTED VARIABLES ARE NOT BEING PASSED TO THE FLASH MOBIE in scenario 2 where the asp code is looking for the participant id dynamically (i.e from the URL)
I know there were many messages posted regarding sending variables from flash to php. I wrote a small code where in I used send() method of LoadVar object, it sends the message but it reloads the php page which I do not want it to do. I tried using sendAndLoad() and here it does not send any variable at all. Below is my sample code.
PHP code: (recieve.php)
<?php
$s = "12";
$r = $_POST['name'];

Im trying to send variables from my HTML page to flash, in order to control the location of movie clips. This is what I have.
HTML PAGE
PHP Code:
<param name="movie" value="navi.swf?sectionheader=charts">
*I have also added the "?sectionheader=charts" to the EMBED line.
SWF/FLA
sectionheader._x = 10;
sectionheader._y = 290;
*This is set on the first frame.
The theory is that flash will read the variable and come up with something like:
charts._x = 10;
charts._y = 290;
..................but, ofcourse it doesnt!!!
I have been able to set text of textfields and event traget frame Labels in similar ways, but this will not work..
