Flash Radio Form To PHP Shopping Cart
Right, What I am trying to do is send a value from a radio form in a piece of flash, to be received and processed by a different page (a PHP page, which is a shopping cart),

I have written the actionscript function to take the values from the radio form using formData.sendAndLoad to the PHP, problem is, I need this to also act as a getURL so that the PHP page opens as well, to display the shopping cart. However when I do this, Internet Explorer just wants to Download and save the PHP page the Flash is pointing to.

Any Ideas?

Flash/Paypal Shopping Cart? Cart Within Flash...
I'm wanting to set-up a shopping cart in flash using Paypal as the payment option. I already know how to have the buttons send the "add to cart" and "buy now" options to Paypal, which opens up a pop-up with the cart info.

What I'm wanting, however, is to have a cart within flash which when the customer clicks "purchase now", sends all the info (items, number, etc.) to Paypal using POST - basically just calling up the payment screen, rather than the cart first.

Great example here (just act like you're ordering):

Any ideas? thanks...

Creating A Flash Form
Allright. I created a simple form with 3 text box
each were given a variable name as follow "name","email","details"
All I am trying to achieve is that on enter frame the cursor position itself on the "name" text field and then on TAB to go from field to field.
This is the coding I thought would work, and yet even after publishing the cursor still does not automatically go to "name"
Selection.setFocus("_root.name");
_root.name.tabEnabled(true);
_root.email.tabEnabled(true);
_root.details.tabEnabled(true);
_root.name.tabIndex = 1;
_root.email.tabIndex = 2;
_root.details.tabIndex = 3;

any help is appreciated

Creating A Form In Flash
I am used to creating forms in straight html and cgi but CANNOT figure out how to create a form in flash that will do anything with the variables. I have searched the tutorials. I am coming up with nothing that works. I'm simply trying to create a form in which the variables are sent to an email address.

The form is being used to gather information, ie. name, phone number, email address & message. I have created an Input Text textfield box for each, giving them variable names like name, phone, email, message. Now I've tried a lot of different ways to go the next step but cannot find something that works. I have created a submit button and a clear button. Anything I have found for scripting either of these buttons has not worked. I am assuming from everything I've read that I need to loadVariables on the submit button but from there I haven't come up with the right sequence of scripting. I would like the information to be emailed to the client who is having this site built and then a "thank you for getting in touch with us" kind of screen to come up. Of course, when the user clicks on the clear button I would like the fields to go back to blank but even that I haven't been able to work out.

Can someone please help?!!!

Creating Flash PHP FORM
This is the first time I created a form in Flash. I am not sure how to do the PHP for Actionscript. The form information that user types in is supposed to go to my email when someone completes it.

I created a simple form with text input areas for Name, another for address, another for city,state, zip, another for phone, another for email, and a large input area for comments.

After the email area, I have placed radio buttons from Flash components--about four of them.

I placed the Actionscript for the SUBMIT button.

Here is an Actionscript, below, I found somewhere online. That is the only Actionscript I think I would need for the FORM.

When you respond - I would like to know where I am to insert my own email address. If you know of a better Actionscript for the Submit button, let me know. Please kindly reply to art.design@comcast.net. Thanks. Mary Alice

Creating A Simple Cgi Form In Flash
Hello,

I am having a bit of trouble with a form that I have created. There are input text fields of information that I would like to have sent by email.

I have used the POST method and addressed it in the actionscript to the cgi-bin. I have been told that I need to have a "hidden" input area with the name equalling the recipient and the value equalling the email address. Trouble is I am really not sure where I should be adding this.

I would really appreciate some help!

Problems With Creating Form In Flash
hi!

I'm creating a form in flash based on the tutorial by senocular at http://www.kirupa.com/developer/acti..._php_email.htm

It works fine, but I would like to know how to attach files to the form, say if the form ask the user to submit his resume. Also, if I use a combo box, with multiple selections, how do I implement it within the form? Will it work with the email.php file? Many Thanks!

Creating A PHP CMS Form For The Flash Gallery
Hello all,

I am trying to create a couple of things but am having some problems. Hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction. I have a couple sites I am working on that use variations of XML-based Flash galleries. I am trying to create a client-tool (CMS) to allow uploads of images and editing of the XML file that runs the gallery. I have gone through various tutorials but it isn't quite coming together. So if anyone has some pointers to good tutorials or files I can dissect for this I'd appreciate it.

I am a complete PHP newbie so am flying blind. I do have it installed and running locally on OS X for testing.

I've figured out the displaying of XML files and uploading of images files, but can't figure out how to combine the display of the XML data and allow the user to edit and re-export that info. The type of info is what you'd expect:

Image Name
JPEG Location
JPEG Thumb Location
Category (ideally a pull-down)
Image Description

Here are some other things I'd like for the tool to do. Load and resize the JPEG's. I found a nice PHP cript for this, but it is dependant on cjpeg and a few other free Unix utilities. The problem with that is that I don't have control over the hosting service of various clients and while most of them are running PHP, I can't install any other apps. So I'm not sure if it's possible to do this without these, or if it's possible to do this pointing to a location of the apps on a different server. While I'd love it if I could get it to do this, the main concern right now is getting the XML file editing working.

Thanks!

Flash Mx 2004 Problems Creating Transitions In Form
I'm putting together a form in Flash MX 2004. I've taken a look at the On Demand tutorial and have attempted to place a hide and show transition on one of my nester screens just as it was explained in the demonstration (http://www.macromedia.com/macromedia/events/online/ondemand/index.html). I have the following setup for my behaviors.

load = hide screen --> target=this
hide = transition --> type=fly,direction=1,duration=1,easing=none.easeNone
reveal = transition --> type=fly,direction=0,duration=1,easing=non.easeNone

when I test my movie I should only have the main screen display, but instead I have my nested screen flying out and displaying. I don't understand why it's doing this since I have the "load" behavior to hide. I've tried placing these bahaviors in different order as well and the same thing happens. Any suggestion? Thanks!

Basic Shopping Cart Theory..?'s Add To Cart.
I've been doing a lot more reading taking it one step at a time and I'm understanding a little how to pull info from my XML document Catalog.xml although I still don't know how to populate a table just yet.

What's the theory or process to pull info from the XML file for each product?
I'm having troubles figuring how/where The Add To Cart button gets the info about each product.

On my site when a small product button is clicked a larger image of that product fades into view as a movie along with an Add To Cart button. Both of these are in the same movie clip and each product has it's own movie clip.

Is the below process correct thinking?
1. The movie that fades in the larger view of the product links to the xml file and pulls the proper info about that product.

2. The Add To Cart when clicked reads that info and sends it to the table.

If this is wrong can someone explain the correct process?

Thank You
Kevin

btw,
Nice tutorial for real XML beginners:

Creating Email Form
I'm after a tutorial/.fla, for one of those contacts pages everyone has on their sites, where you enter in your name, email address, etc, etc and the message and you click send and it sends. I don't want one that opens up your email when you click send and then you have to click send on your email.

Here is an example, easier to show than explain I guess. How about the one at http://www.2advanced.com/flashindex.htm, most of you are familiar with this site I'm guessing :-)

I don't want one that uses any language other than actionscript, no PHP or Pearl cause I dont' know anything about these.

I looked in the tute section of flashkit but couldn't find anything really worth using, oh and I'm on MX.

Please Help With Creating Output From A Form
Hi,

I am having problems displaying the form output.

The form uses several components, such as radio buttons, checkboxes and input text. After filling the form the user is meant to be taken to a frame labelled "result" where the text + plus selected options are displayed.
The output is meant to be displayed in the text Area named statusMessage.

When I leave the text area in the 1st frame it displays things fine. When I try to place the 'result' text area in the other frame (labelled "result") is gives 'undefined' values from all elements but the 'message' input text component.

Here is the code I use placed in the 1st frame.

*************************
// save a reference to the timeline that contains the form
myForm = this;

CAMERA_TYPE = "CameraTypeDome";
CameraTypeDomeIndoors.group = CAMERA_TYPE;
CameraTypeDomeOutdoors.group = CAMERA_TYPE;

// create a listener object for the submit button
submitButtonListener = new Object();

// submit button listener, click handler method
submitButtonListener.click = function ()
{

var msg= " ";
var system_type = SystemType.selection.label;
var camera_location = CameraLocation.selection.label;
message = comment.text;

// search for the checkboxes on the form
for ( var i in myForm )
{
var currentFormItem = myForm [ i ];

// is the current form item a checkbox that is
// part of our group that contains adjectives?
if (currentFormItem.group == CAMERA_TYPE )
{
// is the checkbox checked?
var isChecked = currentFormItem.selected;

if ( isChecked )
{
msg += currentFormItem.label + "
";
}
}
}

statusMessage.text = "You have chosen an on-line CCTV system with following features: " + "
" +
"Location Of the camera(s): "+ camera_location + "
" +
"Type of the camera(s) required: "+ msg + "
" +
"Other useful info: " + message + "
";

gotoAndStop("result");
}

// make the submit button listener listen for click events
submitButton.addEventListener("click", submitButtonListener);

***************************

I have also repeated the

statusMessage.text= ...

in the frame labelled "result", where the output should go.

What am I missing here?

[F8] Creating A Login Form?
Hi, im relatively new to Actionscripting, and i was wondering how do i go about making a login form using actionscript and Flash alone. At the moment, I have two variables which hold two strings, and on clicking a submit button it checks the two text fields which the user inputs and compares it to the two predefined variables, if they match then it will direct the user to the next frame. I have also added a checking script on the next frame so if the inputs are wrong then it would go back to the previous frame, this is so that it stops users from just righ clicking and hitting the forward button on the menu.

For now it's not working, even though the inputs are correct, it just doesn't direct the user to the next frame.

If anyone knows any other way, would help a lot.

Help With Creating Submit Form
Hello. I'm working out of Flash 8 right now on a template that my brother sent over to me. I need help with the scripting on how to submit the form.

I'm not sure on the proper steps on how create the submit form so that people who visit my website can fill out the form and then have it sent to my e-mail.

Creating A Form With Search Box
Hi,

I want to create a form on a flash file that will append a variable to a search query when submitted. I had this functionality working fine, but I wanted to include some ghost text which the user can either submit to search for that, or is cleared upon clicking on the search box.

However, now the search variable just comes up empty regardless of what is typed in.

I've assigned a variable, srch1 to the form, and have this action for the submit button:
on (release) {
url1 = "searchsite.com/search="+srch1
getURL(url1, "", "POST" );
}

Then for clearing the search box I have:
onClipEvent (load) {
srch.onSetFocus = function() {
srch.text = ''
}
}
.

This manages to clear the box, however, the terms entered don't pass on to the srch1 variable. Any ideas?
