Xml :: Creating And Populating A New XML File On The Server To Be Reloaded At A Later Date?
May 17, 2011
I have an application that reads in an external XML file, parses out the pieces, displays them, and then allows the user to edit them. I would like to have a save button that the user can press that would save any changes to a new XML document somewhere on the server (any file location that I specify).I've been looking around online, and can't find any examples... all I can find is that this ability wasn't available until flash v.10.Another option i was considering was to create an XML variable, create it's value, and then somehow forward the user to a coldfusion page where I could then create a file.

I have a 20x20 matrix set up in Excel that I'd like to recreate in Flash. Essentially the values are either 0 or a calculated formula of -Fo or 1+2(Fo).
My question is with a matrix of this size, is there an efficient way to create and populate it besides hard coding the address for each data cell? Can I make this using a loop?
I've attached a snippet of what the Excel sheet looks like. Notice the data trend.

I'm using flash CS4 and actionscript 2.0. I have a situation where I need to locate and check the date of an external file (either .exe or .swf) and return that date string to a variable in flash. I then need to display that date to a piece of dynamic text within the flash file. Is there a function within action script that will check and retrieve the file date of an external file.

Wasn't sure where to post this one as I'm not sure where the error is occuring.I have datagrid components being populated from a mySQL DB using php. The grids exist on external swfs being loaded into a parent clip.The datagrids populate locally no problem when tested individually and when loaded into the parent clip. They have also been working from the server in previous days, but I was doing final tests checks on some recent final changes and now things aren't working.obviously I went back and ran through what I changed but nothing really applied to the grids.Codes are below
Code:
//DISPLAY ON TAP BEERS
var myOnGridArray:Array = [];

I'm currently working in Flash mx 2004 and am creating a version of 'what happened in history today'. So my final layout will have the following iobjects.
Heading: 'current date'
Title: 'On this day in History'
Text box: Which displays the right description from a text file. history.txt
Image box: which displays a pic related to the current date.
I know basic Flash but have been playing around for ages am having real trouble getting things to work correctly. The main priority is to get the text loaded based on the current date. I have an images folderwhere the pictures are stored with files names related to date i.e. 14feb.jpg and my history.txt file is set out with a line for each date. i.e., 14feb=Valentines Day etc.

Do you know any way to compare a date to a range of date using the Date class in as2.
For example i want to know a given day (11-12-2009) is among the start and end date of a given range (11-01-2009 to 11-20-2009).

I have successfully managed to follow and implement the flash date countdown timer tutorial given here: [URL]
However I need to get the time from my server rather than the client so that everyone see's the same time and nobody can view the rest of the movie before the deadline has been reached.
Instructions are given to get the tiome from the server using PHP, however our website runs on asp.net so i cannot use this PHP script.
I know I can call the date from my server on an aspx page with:
<% dteDate = Now %>
<%=dteDate %>
Which displays as:
19/03/2007 12:40:29
Is it possible to pull that into the countdown? If so where do I need to start?

My app needs to fetch the current date and I don't want it to come from the computer's clock. I've searched [URL] and other sites for APIs, but have come short so far. Is there a web service somewhere or any other dedicated server where I could fetch today's date from using AS3?

My FMS client is calling a function (simplified) which gets the offset time in milliseconds of an flv file.According to the docs for creationTime, it should return a Date object containing the time the file was created.I cannot access any properties of the date object in the server script.
Client.prototype.listFiles = function( folderName ) {
var testFile = new File('/streams/folder/fileName.flv');
trace("creationTime: " + testFile.creationTime);

I am making a countdown ticker that would get the current server date & time and then calculate the remaining time from a target date.
I am using a PHP file to output the current server date & time. Then I use the Flash's loadvars function to get the result and format it as a Date field. However, when I trace for remaining days using targetDate-serverDate, I get NaN as the result.
Below is the code for my flash script as well as the php script.
Flash Code:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
myVars = new LoadVars();
// call the load method to load my php page

I used the kirupa drawing tutorial to create a simple doodle application.[code]I really need a way to save the doodle created to a server and then reload it at a later date. It could either be as a file or as data that meant it could be redrawn.I've looked into exporting as a bitmap but the methods seem very complex and also slow/relatively large file sizes (it is only a simple doodle application!!!)url...but it doesn't even seem to be working on the site. I had a look at the code but couldn't really get to the bottom of how it worked.Is there no easy way to save a movieclip out as an swf file dynamically?

I'm trying to record video from the users webcam and play it back at a later date.
I call
[Code]...
However, when I look at the FMS Admin Console at the streams in app/_definst_, their types are either "NetStream" or "Live". If they were being saved wouldn't they say "Stored"? After I close the application doing the recording, the "NetStream" type stream disappears, and after a while all the "Live" typed streams are gone too. Nothing is saved.
I have no idea what is happening. I don't know if it's a problem with my AS3 code not closing the recording properly or if I'm doing something else wrong, or maybe somethgin isn't right in the FMS?

I need a "days without safety incident" flash counter that I can update with an external xml file.I found this ActionScript 2 code on the web:
Code:
birthDate = new Date(2012, 0, 03);
currentDate = new Date();
elapsedDate = currentDate-birthDate;
elapsedDays = Math.floor(elapsedDate/(1000*60*60*24))
daysElapsedTextBox = " "+elapsedDays+" ";
How can I set the new Date value of birthDate taking the data from an xml file?This is my xml code (I named it "thefile.xml"):
Code:
<noincidentsince>
<counter>2012,0,03</counter>
</noincidentsince>

I'm trying to call to a date in an external txt file (losttime.txt).The date is written as: 2012, 1, 09 in the .txt file.I've loaded the txt file and need to calculate the amount of time between that date and today.Right now, I have the date set in the lostTimeDate variable, but need it to call to the date in the txt file instead. I assume this has to do with Parsing the date, but for the life of me, cannot figure it out.Here is my code:
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("losttime.txt"));[code].......

Im working on a project where files are being loaded using the URLloader in flash as3. I need to be able to find the last modified date of the file that is being loaded, unfortunately the files may not always be on the same server as the flash app, so it may not always be possible for me to add a line to the file that has the last modified date, that could be read easily in flash. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to retreive this information, I know in air you can use URLLoader.httpResponseStatus which allows you to get the http headers and find it that way but it doesnt appear to work in flash.Id like to try to do this with out having to call on javascript or php to find it, since it would then require 2 connections per file i believe to be able to do everything I need 1 to get contents in flash, and one for either javascript or php to find the last modified date, but if I have to that seems to be the only option I can come up with.

I have a XML file with a few concert dates. In my flash/AS3 file, I would like to show only the up coming event, relative to current date. Like this:
Event 01: 30-05-2010
Event 02: 02-06-2010
Event 03: 05-06-2010
Today is 28-05-2010, so I need to list Event 01. On 01-06-2010 I need to list Event 02. I have the basic AS3 code for listing the XML working, but I'm having trouble filtering the result.
