• Help!  need of php in flash variables

  Action script below two videos (first.flv, second.flv), and then played consecutively. I want to load the videos as variables to a PHP page that this flash is embeded in - something like:
  
  $first_flv = "first.flv";
  $second_flv = "second.flv";
  
  How can I get $first_flv and $second_flv in flash variables that can replace the hardcoded ('first.flv', 'second.flv') below?

• sending flash variables

  I imported a file flash inside Director...
  How can I access variables that I used flash, through Director?
  How can I send variables from flash movie to the Director?
  I used this command in the animation flash a button:
  on (release) {}
  getURL ("event: FlashMouseEnter, \"hi\ "" ");
  }
  but I could not send with this command, the variables! only the channels
  What should I do about variables?

  This is how to do it (this is from my memory, so I have not tested this exact code):
  --------------------------------------------
  ACTIONSCRIPT:
  (At the beginning of your script)
  implement the listener passing variables and events Director...
  var directorListener:Object = new Object();
  directorListener.handlerName = function(evt_obj:Object):Void End Sub

  (At the end of the first picture of the script you)
  If (System.capabilities.playerType == "DirectorXtra") {}
  getURL("event:flashLoaded"); Director can now do things with the flash object!
  } else {}
  controls to test the swf outside the Director go here...
  }

  --------------------------------------------
  In the JARGON, the behavior of Flash sprite:

  on flashLoaded me
  set up an interception of calls to the directorListener function...
  SP = Sprite (spriteNum)
  Listener = SP.directorListener
  sp.setCallBack (listener, "handlerName", #lingoHandler, me)
  end

  on lingoHandler me, directorListener, flashVariables
  put flashVariables.type
  put flashVariables.target._x
  put flashVariables.selectedIndex
  end
  --------------------------------------------
  Then, back in ACTIONSCRIPT, to pass variables from Flash, not string values, use this code:
  --------------------------------------------
  call the function in the directorListener event
  directorListener.handlerName ({type: "select", target: this, selectedIndex:23});}) Flash Assoc table accessories. can be anything! Add as many times as you need. It's the object passed as a parameter in your Lingo Manager 3.

  For more information on the events and Flash<->variable Director way, see this post

• How to assign the value to a dynamically created flash variable.

  I want to change the value of a variable that is in another flash movie. I loaded the swf file. Inside the function "onLoadInit", I wrote code like below.

  loadListener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void
  {

  This [target_mc + "."] contents.obj.' + mcSelfObj. m_TemparVariables [w] .varname] = 'Left ';

  where mcSelfObj. m_TemparVariables [w] .varname contains 'position', which is the variable I want to change. This declaration is not assign a value to the variable.

  If I hardcode the above statement as below it works

  target_mc.contents.obj.position = 'Left ';

  }

  In the previous version of flash, we used eval() to make over assignments.

  While you don't seem to use AS3, try...

  [mcSelfObj.m_TemparVariables [w] .varname] target_mc.contents.obj = "Left";

  based on what you say works, which is the best I can do to determine where the media should be.

  If these are all a form of variable identity rather than the names of instnance, then you will need to use parentheses for each instance and do not use points

  We pass in the number of unread messages in the flash as a URL query string object.

  
  would we beable to explain how this is done with an example script AS2, or direct me to any technote

  Thanks a lot for your help

  * How or where the case may be, I make ad link to the url that will pass the variable? **

  a.) you to do this in the HTML file by using the Flash object, as shown in the sample file.

  (b.), can you yust directly, call the Flash animation with an HTML Flash object.

  In an HTML file, you create a hyperlink, like this:

  Click me

  creating a textlink in HTML.

  (c.) in Flash you can call HTML using the getURL() function

  Create a button.

  mybutton.onPress = function () {}

• 4310G external Flash Data queue access

  Hi all

  I use a G 4310 with DMM (both on 5.4), and I'm trying to use an external data file to learn the dynamics, text, and image variables.

  If I use this configuration with a regular browser, it does not work unless I have add security exceptions that allow external data file access. Is this a possible cause for this works only not with the DMP? is there a part of the DMP that must be configured to allow this?

  For the test, I use to play HTML / Flash section available from loggind directly in the dmp via its IP address.

  I put the URL in as follows:

  Browser and Flash playback

  Reading URL: http://***:80/content/aa2683af-BC33-4A9F-8C00-f095754307a6.swf  

  Flash settings only

  Flash variable: Data_Url =http://***/***/***/data.txt

  I'm sure that's the right way to put those URL to, but the flash file fails to load dynamic content during playback on the DMP.

  Can anyone help with this?

  Thanks in advance!

  Luke.

  You may need to define a domain policy to allow your flash access and consume data hosted on a local server files. You can do this by placing an XML file called crossdomain.xml in the root of your web server. It should look like this:

  http://www.Adobe.com/XML/DTDs/cross-domain-policy.DTD">."

  In this case, we allow the access all areas using the generic specification, but you might want to restrict that.

  I hope this helps.

• High Score Table: writing a Simple with Flash and PHP text file

  I'm having a problem getting Flash to work with PHP that I need Flash to read and write to a text file on a server to store data simple name partition for a games Hi score table. I can read the text file in Flash fairly easily, but I also have to write to the file when a new high score is reached, so I need to use PHP to do that. Can I send data from flash to php by POST file, but so far it does not. The PHP file is confirmed that the work that I added an echo in the file that displays a message to verify that the server is running PHP - files were also uploaded to a remote server so I could test them correctly. Flash code is as follows:

  FileWriter php

  var myLV = new LoadVars();

  sendData() {} function

  //sets variable 'hsdata' to send to php

  myLV.hsdata = myText;

  myLV.send ("hiscores.php");

  }

  I believe that it sends the variable "myText" in the php file in a variable called 'hsdata' I want the php file to write to a text file. The mytext variable is just a long chain that has all of the partitions and the names in the scores. OK, XML would be best way to do it, but for the speed, I want to just get the basic features of work, so store a shot of simple text is sufficient for now. The PHP code that reads the Flash variable "hsdata" and wrote for the "scores.txt" text file is due to:

  <? PHP

  sets the variable to the data posted from flash

  $flashdata = $_POST ['hsdata'];

  File Manager opens the file and clears all content with arg w

  $fh = fopen ("scores.txt", "w");

  Adds data to the file

  fwrite ($fh, $flashdata);

  closes the file

  fclose ($fh);

  echo "php file works;

  ? >

  Any help with this would be greatly appreciated - once I get php to write text files simple I should be ok. Thank you.

  var outLV = new LoadVars();

  var inLV = new LoadVars();

  sendData() {} function

  outLV.hsdata = 'Hello from Flash';

  outLV.sendAndLoad ("http://www.mysite.com/hiscores/test23.php", inLV,"POST");

  }

  inLV.onLoad = {function (success)}

  If (success) {}

  sets the dynamic text box to show the variable sent by php

  statusTxt.text = this.phpmess;

  } else {}

  statusTxt.text = 'No Data Received';

  }

  };

  It works well and function of inLV.onLoad of the reports it receives data, but does not display the variable received from PHP. The PHP file is like this:

  <>

  $mytxt = $_POST ['hsdata'];

  $myfile = "test23.txt";

  $fh = fopen ($myfile, 'w');

  Adds data to the file

  fwrite ($fh, $mytxt);

  closes the file

  fclose ($fh);

  $mess = "Hello there php ';

  echo "phpmess =". "." $mess;

  ?>

• How to create a variable that gets + 1 or - 1 according to clicks?

  I don't know what to look for.  Is there a way to define an invisible flash variable so as to keep the score?

  The best way I can describe it comes from the BASE language I used to use back in the day, where you can click on x = x + 1 or x = x-3, or what function of the button click you.  And then it would display the score (i.e., just what is the current value of x) in the corner?

  I guess the simplest way that could help me to give me a link or the actual code you EF to a single button that will add or subtract a score displayed in the corner.

  My knowledge of ActionScript is very limited... I know that what I have copy - paste for my purposes of line.

  Thank you!

  However, whenever you plan to display the value you can use...

  textFieldName.text = String (someVariable);

  where textFieldName is any instance name assign you to the TextField object

• Data Flash, Php and Mysql

  Hello

  Is it possible for recent versions of flash to access to directly (or through Php) (& updated) data from a mysql database and display results based on the data?

  So if my database as this (math notes):
  The user | Score
  --------|----------
  Tom | 13
  Jerry | 20
  Kane | 7

  the power of the flash would be a bar graph as follows (these hyphens would be bars in flash)

  Tom: -------------
  Jerry: -------------------
  Kane: -.

  Is this possible to nowadays? Analytical Google did something like similar to this one.

  Finally, I used flash somewhere in 2003/4. Ever after it :-) I completely lost the touch.

  Thank you

  You can dynamically generate the bars, either by the presence of a symbol in the library that you add dynamically as needed, or you might draw bars graphics using dynamically... Although the path to the symbol would be the easiest for you to grasp.  So the number of bars can be based on the number of items in the basis of this call woulkd for them.

  What you essentially end up doing is to have the PHP write an output as xml in Flash using the echo command.  There is no real xml file, but you feed data to Flash as if it was... Flash will not know the difference.

  There is an alternative in how to feed data as Flash variables as if it were a text data file, but the xml approach is probably cleaner.

• How to access ColdFusion from FLEX session variables

  Hi all
  Is it possible to access Session variables in ColdFusion from Flex?
  I access ColdFusion CFCS in Flex using the Webservice queries. Running Flex SDK 3.2/Flex Builder3 / ColdFusion8
  
  Any help is appreciated!

  Pass variables (parameters) in your application Flex is to change the Flex Builder generated .html file that calls your application .swf in a .cfm file (just change the file extension). Then edit the file and search for the AC_FL_RunContent add a property for the Flash Variables like this: "flashVars", "MyName =#CGI. USER name #«,»
  In the Flex application, you can call myName = Application.application.parameters.myName;
  This can pass ColdFusion variables into Flex.

• Problem loading variables in nested clips

  I can't not variable in loading a text file in a dynamic text box that is nested in a clip. I have a scene then a movieclip with an instance of lot25, and then inside I have a dynamic text box called lot25text. I can get it to load on the main stage. I can get it to trace the variable in the text file, but nothing when I put it in the MC. I had it hidden and I took that off. Can't think of anything else. Using MX2004.
  
  The following actionscript code:
  thisText = new LoadVars();
  thisText.load("flash-variables.php");
  thisText.onLoad = {function (success)}
  If (success) {}
  _root.lot25.lot25text.text = thisText.varLot25;
  trace (thisText.varLot25);
  } else {}
  trace ("empty");
  }
  };
  Stop();
  
  And here is the text file (it's a PHP file, but it displays this:)
  & varLot25 = SOLD

  Figured it out. The dynamic text box must be in the first frame of the MC.

• Change the color of Clip from movie with the external Variable

  I have a movieclip in my flash file (WhiteBarMC) I want to be able to change the colors on the use of a variable (hexadecimal number) assigned from an external file. I found a script that comes close to what I want to achieve, but I don't know how to run the changes I need to make it work.
  
  on {(overview)
  var colorful = new color ("_root. WhiteBarMC");
  colorful.setRGB (0 x 006699);
  }
  
  It is narrow because it changes my object/Movie Clip on roll. BUT I have two problems...
  
  1) I want to set the hexadecimal color code in an external file as a flash variable retrieves and then applies to this movieclip. If it helps to explain why, it's because I have multiple variants of this swf throughout my site with a different text that just overlap the coloured bar movieclip (i.e. galleries, contacts, subject, etc.) So, with a change in an external file, I have the ability to change the color bars in the world to match the changing colors on the site.
  
  I created an external file ".txt" with only "myColor var = CC0033" in the file. I don't know if it's right, or even the wrong way, but I thought it help those smarter about what I'm doing.
  
  (2) I don't want my viewers having to "roll" to activate the change. I want it to happen during loading.
  
  
  Anyone who can help is a hero. Don't forget, I'm not this control to the action script, so a little guidance and clarity in your response will allow immensley! I owe you a dinner!

  Place this code on the root timeline containing your video:

  my_lv = new LoadVars();
  my_lv. OnLoad = function (s) {}
  If (s) {}
  var colorful = new color (_root. WhiteBarMC);
  colorful.setRGB (this.myColor);
  } else {}
  trace ("failed to load the file");
  }
  }
  my_lv. Load ("Colors.txt");

  Where colors.txt is a file with: & myColor = 0xCC0033 & (as kglad said)

  You probably want to check the value that it returns and use it to decide whether to go to the scene following or not.

  result_text. Text = "" + event.target.data.systemResult;

  If (String (result_text. (Text). IndexOf ("Welcome") == 0) {}

  gotoAndPlay (1, "Scenename");

  }

  }

  What is the first line is check if the welcome Word is at the beginning of all that is in the textfield (starting at index 0).  If so, then she issues a command to switch to a different frame/scene

  How would I pass a variable from flash to php?

  I've been in many tutorials on the net but I can't understand a large part of the tutorials...

  I saw same method similar to use URLLoader & URLRequest with the location of the php files then variables in php that connects to the database is accessible.

  All access php succeeded not flash variables in the php file as in the code above.

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  It's really poor as2 coding so it will mean coding as3 really poor.

  but, to answer your question, you set a data property to your urlrequest to transmit data from flash to php.  the data property will be an instance urlvariables and you assign variables/values to your instance urlvariables:

  var urlVar:URLVariables = new URLVariables();

  urlVar.eid = whatevervalue;

  urlVar.rdoc = whatever;

  urlVar.str = whateverelse;

  yourURLRequest.data = urlVar;
