Read An HTML Cookie In Flash?
Dec 6, 2010
I'm hoping to get pointed in the right direction here. The problem I'm having is trying to figure out how to read an HTML created cookie in Flash. I have a video player that should autoplay once in a 24hour period, the next day it should autoplay again for the end-user.This is what the script on the HTML page looks like that displays the Flash player and the cookie:[code]I did some searching and found this Have a HTML page play Flash movie only once (not when revisited...) but again this is just a Flash function which never allows for a restart in a certain time period.how do I read that var x(cookie) in Flash?

We have a flash video that was created for our project, we dont the source so we have to work around the compiled flash file. We are going to host the video on our domain and the video creates a sol cookie (flash cookie) file to store how far the user has proceeded though the video. So my plan is to access this cookie to see how far the user has progressed and then fire an event when they have finished the movie.
I have been googling for some help but haven't found to much. I have found out that its possible to do in javascript and I have found some .net sol file viewers but haven't seen any examples I can get my mind around.
I have watched the traffic that gets created with fiddler and every time the next button is clicked a new request is fired with the swt file that is being accessed. I would also be happy with tracking every time one of these swt files has been accessed as well.

Is it possible to read first party cookies from flash?It should be noted that we have complete access to javascript via the ExternalInterface class.So, now the question is - can we access first party cookie from javascript? Our javascript code will be loaded by a website which is not hosted by us. This makes the cookies created by that website - first party cookies. How can we access these "first" party cookies?

I want to create a flash swf file that will store a token in Local Shared Object. What do I need to do to read that token and look it up in the database on the back end? Is this possible at all?
here is a possible scenario:
User visits my web page A token is generated on the server and stored in the database Token is then saved in LSO User leaves the site (maybe shuts down his computer) and comes back later Token is read, located in the database and the user is recognized (lets say that token is a foreign key that links to other user data stored in the db)
I researched this for quite a while and all I find is that flash can use LSO to store read data for flash movie... Does this mean that the data can not be accessed by the server?

I need to read the contents from the browser's cookie.I tried to use FlashVars to pass the contents from html to flash.However, the contents of the cookie may change after the swf is loaded.So I need to setup a listener to read the cookie directly.

I have only ben using flash for a little while and do not know a lot about action scripts.I have used a flash file found online which plays music and has a mute button, but at present it plays the music when the page is viewed at another time.So need to have a cookie or shared obect as i have been told it is, so that when the music tries to play it can read the mute state cookie to decide if it should play or not.i see i can not upload a file so have uploaded to the following location

I already tested SharedObject class in native actionscript trying to get the arbitrary name of cookie from local system but it doesn't work.For your information, I am working with cookie returned from user's browsing sites (not my own sites). That's is to get some cookie values resulting from browsing of site A from user in order to work with my own application.

I remember that in flash 8 you needed to read the cookie via php script to get it into flash. Has that changed in CS4? Is it possible to read the cookie directly from the swf now? If not how does one go about getting cookie information into flash CS4?

I am using html in xml for some names in actionscript and there is ;quot;
Here is my variable where I want actionscript to read the name as html. Instead of normal text.
var field:TextField = currItem.createH3Black(0, 0, 180, 10, h3Size, h3Leading, font, "Left", _root.white, currItem.name.toUpperCase(), "textItem");
How do I make actionscript treadt the currItem.name.toUpperCase() as html? So that the name shows as HTM with "" . Instead of showing ;quot;

Is there a way to read html tags from xml files as a text and then display them in a text box with htmlText?
I know one way of doing that is replacing anyother letter instead of "<" or ">", but the client will directly replace html text in the xml file

I think this is almost impossible, or at least very difficult. The thing is: I wanted to make a guestbook on my site (inside flash) but my server doesn't allow me to use php. So the only other way (I think) is to use a remote script-host. So that's what I did, I found one on scripthost.com. It's a very simple one,it just changes a html-file everytime a new entry is entered. What I want to do now is to extract all the things that are in the html-file and put them in textboxes. Is this possible? I searched a little bit and I found that I could use the server side include tags to read a html-file to another html-file (inside a div) and then use javascript to read the div and send it to a textbox in flash.

I am trying to read the html page that contains my SWF from inside the SWF itself.This works:
function loadWebPage():void{
var url:String = "iFrame.html";
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);[code]....
However, I need to write "iFrame.html" as the URL. I know that the container webpage's name is "iFrame.html." But what if I don't know the name of the HTML page? instead of "iFrame.html" is there a "_self" or "_parent" or external interface call that I can pass into the urlLoader that will get me the container HTML page of the swf?

I have a question that I cant quite start.I have a web site that record some cookies: name, age, sex, etc.
I would like to know if it is possible to create a flash banner that display this information, like: hello [name], how are you doing today?
I was searching online and everything that I found needs something outside flash to work.
Is that a way to create a flash that can read cookie's values and show then?
