Need to pass variable SWF * to * HTML

Hi all, brand new to Flash and I'm used to working with a model Flash written earlier. In this model, there is a search box. My goal is to get some someone puts in this little white search box on my Coldfusion page for further processing. I want it because I know nothing of Flash (yet) and want the variable I need to work with to leave Flash quickly as possible so that I can use it in Coldfusion where I am comfortable on a deadline.

Here is the code that I have which produces at least a promising URL in the browser. After a lot Googlin' I managed to set it up:

on (release) {}
Search = this. SomeName.Search; <-THIS SHOULD BE MY VARIABLE of RESEARCH
getURL (" http://www.test.com/web/search.cfm", "_top", "GET");
}

In the browser URL, which in fact produces:

http://www.test.com/Web/search.cfm?search=

.. What seems promising. But notice, the SEARCH variable is empty.

I need it as well as the SEARCH comes back equal to what I put in the white search box bit.

Thus, for example, I need to go out like that (if I were looking for the word 'Cats'):

http://www.test.com/Web/search.cfm?search=cats

Once it's there, it's elementary to enter me the URL and work with it in Coldfusion.

I've tried everything. Google is full of people trying to pass variable * in * SWF in HTML, but not the reverse. At least what I can say.

Anyone have any ideas? Thank you!

Dave

That proved to be the answer of $ 1 million. I came back to report when I read your explanation which reads verbatim what it is and how to solve it. I didn't know there was a tool to help establish a path within Flash, however, it's cool.

My Coldfusion page now treats this Flash thing search requests with happiness.

That I was (and still am) lack of understanding as a beginner, how to communicate the different parts of a flash project. Layers? Calendar? PUH-lease. I have trouble with Javascript and never even touched C, which are both the syntax of Actionscript of Flash almost.

Thanks for the reply! There are a few other homeless looking for this same answer so I hope that this Exchange winds in Google soon.

Just to be complete on the subject, here's what the end result looks like on my end now (real URL disguised to protect development innocently):

  • How to pass variables to idoc html?

    Hello

    I'm going through user input to HTML (for example the list of parameter values 'Faculty of the student')"to the script idoc to do a database query and retrieve related information student?


    Anyone have an example on how to do this...

    Kind regards
    AAQ

    Hey ayman.

    Take a look at this post for some good info on how to reach some parts of what you are looking for: http://cfour.wordpress.com/2010/05/28/how-to-adding-an-external-database-lookup-to-a-ucm-checkin-form/

    To more directly answer your questions, you need to do is pass the value as a query parameter in the URL. The content server analyzes all query parameters into variables in the portion of local data of the DataBinder. Which means that in the idoc on a page of the Site Studio, you have direct access to the value of the parameter as follows:

    I'm going to assume on your page, you were going to make a call to executeService in the query on the database. If you use a resource of application under this call to service, all you have to do is make sure you that you are querying the resource definition has the same name of variable as the value passed in.

    Hope that helps,

  • SWF loaded, passing variables

    If I load a swf movieclip into a parent SWF is using:

    Is it possible to use _global to declare a global variable in the parent, then access this in the swf file that is loaded:
    Parent:
    _Global.test = new Array();
    Load:
    [x] test = y;

  • Passing variables ActionScript 2 using javascript

    Hello

    I tried to pass variables to a flashdrive with on the page refreshes. In doing my research I fell I cross things like externalinterface and others.

    I found a javascript + actionscript who spent ariables flashing without updating the code page:

    I have therefore 8 flash with actionscript 2.0.

    HTML:

    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>

    <!--

    function callJavascript() {}

    Mathias var = inputValue.vars.value

    window.document.myMovie.SetVariable ("testValue", Mathias);

    I have a flash drive with a movie player instance name of myVid:

    ActionScript:

    var testValue:String = "";

    watchCallback = function (id, oldval, newval): String {}

    result_txt. Text = newval;

    myVid.play (newval);

    return newval;

    };

    _root. Watch ("testValue", watchCallback);

    The code gets the variable var in the html page. Pass vars to actionscript using javascript, displays text on result_txt and play flv video with similar name to a variable passed.

    The problem is:

    I have several a href links that I would like to have the different variables that they would pass to the flash drive.

    < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var1" value = "1.flv" / >

    < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash two < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var2" value = "2.flv" / >

    < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash three < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var3" value = "3.flv" / >

    < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash four < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var4" value = "4.flv" / >

    How can I change the code so that if someone clicks on a flash of the value of var1 is passed to flash.

    and if two flash is clicked var2 are passed to Flash.

    Thank you.

  • Look at a swf in HTML-user can view only once

    Hello

    I have my swf files which are called in the browser when the user opens the page.

    To ensure that my swf is not used by the user for its other objectives, I got it as a strict view from the HTML page that has a variable. Same variable increased from swf in HTML code.

    If the two variables match only swf then starts preloading. This works very well for the first time.

    But when the user open the same page, second time, is no longer able to view the preloader that does not progress further.

    When I delete my temp file so the user is again able to view the swf only once file.

    Can someone tell me;

    1. What is the reason the swf for the temporary file cannot access variable of its HTML code

    2. I do it wrongly?

    3. do I need to clear the cache every time, or there is another method to do?

    Thank you.

    Hi kglad,.

    I found the solution.

    whenever I used "Play();" action I changed it with "gotoAndPlay();

    I found somewhere on the net that play, stop the actions sometimes fail with IE & I just replaced "play()" with "gotoAndPlay()" it was like a magical thing and my swf works fine under IE now.

    Thank you for your reply & help.

  • Pass Variables from JavaScript CS3 ActionScript

    Hello

    I can't understand what I'm doing wrong and I need help . Who better to ask than legal experts?

    I have everything works fine so far except for this actionscript. I use CS3 Flash with ActionScript, CS3.

    I have 5 buttons in flash.
    I try to perform the following tasks
    1. ensure buttons with effects in flash - done
    2 put the button in the down position based on the Web page that the user is on.
    To perform this dynamic, I apparently have to use 3 different languages, PHP, JavaScript, ActionScript.

    I've been playing with this during a week and can not understand. I have the rest of the scripts tested and verified to work.

    Here is the link to my test page
    http://www.spectacularstuff.com/PHP-test/inProgress/php-URL-detection.php

    Here is my code for the test. (This does not include the buttons. It is simply to test to see if I'm passing variable.)

    PHP code to detect the file name.
    <? PHP
    function curPageName() {}
    Return substr ($_SERVER ["SCRIPT_NAME"], strrpos($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"],"/") + 1);
    }
    ECHO "is the current name of the page detected by PHP". curPageName();
    ? >

    The JavaScript Code to pass variables to the Flash
    < script language = "javascript" src = "swfobject.js" >
    var so = new SWFObject ("php - url - detection.swf", "php-url-detection", "550", "400", "9", "#FFFFFF");
    so. AddVariable ("currentpage","<? php echo curPageName();? >" ")
    < /script >

    ActionScript Code to get the JavaScript Variables and display them in flash.
    Dynamically create text fields
    var tf:TextField = new TextField();
    tf.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
    TF. Border = false;
    addChild (tf);

    var tf2:TextField = new TextField();
    TF2. AutoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
    TF2. Border = false;
    addChild (tf2);

    Create the variable to write to the page
    var myStr2:String;

    first attempt to put the variable on the page.
    This LoaderInfo must be capitlized. An error occurs if not.
    var paramObj:Object is LoaderInfo (this.root.loaderInfo).parameters.currentpage;.

    second attempt to put the variable on the page
    var myStr:String = this.root.loaderInfo.parameters.currentpage;
    trace (paramObj);
    trace (myStr);

    If (myStr is nothing)
    {
    myStr = "Flash is not reading JavaScript variables.:(";).
    myStr2 = "";
    }
    on the other
    myStr2 = "" Flash read the JavaScript variables! :)) ' "

  • Passing variables between LabVIEW and TestStand

    Hello

    I'm just learning how to use TestStand and although there are a multitude of resources available, I always find me at a loss on how to pass variables between TS and LV, leaving me to think that there is one fundamental thing that I'm missing which is likely, given that I have a weeks experience with LabVIEW and a days of experience with TestStand.

    I took a glance to the example of 'Clusters' to the Code Modules in TestStand examples (I use TS 2016 if it matters) because I thought it would be quite ideal for what I hope. In this case, I hope to be able to pass a string (a file path) to LabVIEW and VI power take this string and use it as part of an order for the Exec.VI system.  Then, I would be able to pass strings back to TestStand to show the user if an error occurred, but I thought I should get the first part of work.

    I guess my question is what do I have to wait to see in clusters to the example of the Modules of Code? The Watch window displays all defined variables premise on which has the ContainerOut in the Variables pane, but I don't see any kind of update on facades (VI1.vi and VI2.vi) LabVIEW code. Should I be?

    I looked at a few other discussions of the forum here and here, as well as the document of the basis of knowledge here, but could not recreate their solutions. It seems that the connector pane would be a viable way to go, but I'm not sure on how we create and use effectively. According to this document , it makes it seem like it should be simple enough to makes these terminals, but I am still missing a key step. I was able to follow all the steps on the knowledge base document and run the sequence, but then had no idea if it worked or not; I have the report show me the values of the variables I put, but I have no idea whether or not he actually did anything with the LabVIEW VI, or how I could see that.

    Please let me know if you need further information or clarifaction everything I ask.

    Thank you for your time,

    If you want to enter values, you must create a vi for instance dialog box

    The OK button will allow new values to pass to the output terminals.

    A Cancel button will pass just the original through the output values without alteration. The VI will close when either the OK button or cancel were pressed.

  • How to pass variables to the basket to your fund information?

    Here's what I have to do.

    I have a site that sells the same products to several groups of people.

    When a customer enters our site that they need to choose what 'group', they belong to.

    Based on this selection of some of the images, text and links on the pages are customizable (I can do this without problems using a combination of passing parameters through the URL, and writing based on cookies).

    My problem is when I get the extraction are the cookies that I wrote do not give because the url changes to the worldsecuresystems.com.

    I tried everything I can think of to try to get the information stored in the basket page to transfer to the payment page.

    I basically need to spend the 2 pieces of data based on {{globals.cookie.creditunion}} and {{globals.cookie.group}} in the cart at checkout it is added to the CMS or order somewhere.

    I hope that makes sense.

    James

    Hi James,

    Just like Mihai said, pass variables by using the url in the payment button.

    Use the liquid version to create a payment button, here is an example:

    Checkout

    Afterwards, you should be able to go to globals.get.creditunion or globals.get.group

    Good luck

  • How to pass variables by using the command line when starting from a native application ActionScript

    How to pass in variables or arguments to start using the command line when starting a native ActionScript application? For example, I have my app MySweetWidget call and it was compiled with Adobe AIR runtime in captivity so now I have MySweetWidget.exe.

    In the command line, I call MySweetWidget.exe and would like to pass in variables or properties of the application. I guess that these variables are read from the loaderInfo.parameters object.

    Please let me know if the Adobe AIR runtime supports passing the parameters to native execution. If so, I would like to help determine the correct format of how pass variables. So would you want to read those loaderinfo.parameters object?

    Thank you

    Jeff

    I found the answer to my own question:

    Yes, it's a feature supported. It is documented on the following page:

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/ActionScript/3/Flash/desktop/NativeApp lication.html #event:invoke

    When you subscribe to the event from the NativeApplication invoke it will subsequently send the event and you read the table of e.arguments object to get the start in the native application arguments.

  • Pass variables flash server - the best way?

    I use URLVariables right now to pass variables from flash to the server via the php script and update a database lines.

    var variables: URLVariables = new URLVariables();

    Currently about 9 variables are sent which are then updated in the mysql database.

    I read that the database via php calls are the main source of traffic, or at least one of them. I don't know from 100 to 500 concurrent users.

    Obvously I need expert help in the medium term, but I would like to give things a go myself.

    I've read about amfPHP, but I don't seem too well.

    Also, I can cut down the amount of php by user calls as I have anywhere for many games and mini exercises.

    BUT it is possible to get these nine variables in an object and pass the object. An object would be faster than going 9 variables and would this object placed in a cell in the mysql database.

    What would look like this? For now I can read my db easily, but if there is an object, how do you read that?

    -What is serializning? Passing an object and all data is converted to binary etc...

    As you can see, I'm a little lost.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you use a URLVariables object, then you are only passing an object even when that. I leave which, as you have. You can use Fiddler (I prefer Charles) or Charles to see all your data being passed - he did do this kind of stuff much more enjoyable.

    Serialization is simply the process of taking any Flash object, like a table and turn it into a format (such as plaintext) who can read the script on the server side.

  • pass variables between classes

    Hello! I'm new to flash actionscript and I make a small game right now. I thought to create separate movieclips for each level of play and their assigned separate classes is cleaner and easier to code.

    for example: -.

    level 1 - level1.as

    level 2 - level2.as

    Level3 - level3.as

    My problem is how to pass variables (such as health, score, etc.) to a higher level?

    Please help I'm stuck on this and I have searched a lot but couldn't get the right answer...

    Oh, and I use cs3 flash with actionscript 3.0

    I don't think you really understand what are classes and movieclips.

    MovieClips are display objects; your character, the enemy, elements, platforms< these="" will="" be="">

    Classes can be used to define new elements or extend those which already exist, such as an object or a MovieClip.

    For the purposes of making a game, I would separate levels of executives.

    do level 1 on a frame labeled "level 1".

    and level 2 on a frame labeled "level 2".

    variables will carry an image to the image.

    Use gotoAndStop (frame_label) to switch between levels

    * Make sure you use stop(); on the first image to prevent bike between the frames.

    * You can make the frames between each level that has the code "gotoAndStop(previous level)" to prevent people to hit 'play' on the swf file and the cycling through your levels.

    You can also search for SharedObjects as a method of storage of variables even after that the swf file is closed.

Maybe you are looking for
