A Little Information
Hey, I am really impressed by this navigation.
www.muse.mu
The navigation up the top right (the circle with the dots) If someone could point me in the right direction on how to accomplish this code that would be great.
Thanks

[CS3] Inputting Information And Retrieving That Information In Flash
I’m using Flash CS3 Pro and I need to create a form in which a user can input data such as their name, email and other information. Then when the user returns, they are able to input their e-mail address and pull up their information (name and other submitted data). I have search all over for a tutorial but I have had no success. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could show me how to create such a form or let me know where I can find a tutorial or information to create one. Thanks in advance.

Additional Info: This is what I have done on my "definition" track in the component
#initclip
function buttonClass ()
{
trace ("Class registered" + buttonClass.prototype.txtTitle);
}
//Inheritance of MovieClip properties
buttonClass.prototype = new MovieClip();
//Registering Class
Object.registerClass("FButton", buttonClass);
//Set URL Function
buttonClass.prototype.setURL = function (URL)
{
this.dataURL = URL;
trace("URL = " + URL);
this.update();
}
//Retrieve URL Function
buttonClass.prototype.returnURL = function ()
{
return(this.dataURL);
}
//Add URL Property
buttonClass.prototype.addProperty("URL", buttonClass.prototype.returnURL, buttonClass.prototype.setURL);
#endinitclip

Using Information From The URL
So this was mildly easy to do in PHP, but now that i've been playing with flash I've come to the point where i need to do this again... Say i have an html file with the swf embedded and the url is myflash.html if i had it as myflash.html?id=1000 how could i pull out that id=1000 and use it inside of my AS code? It might be simple, i did some searching and was unable to find any similar threads, although i didn't really know what to search for...
Anyways, basically Guitar Hero has released the information for XML feeds on player statistics.. I wanted to create a template to show these statistics in a more condensed way then their website - such as for use in signatures.... The XML files are all ran off of your account ID so each account is ######.XML and i want to use an extended url to make it dynamically load whatever XML file people ask for..... Any help would be appreciated! :X just need help on the url part really....

Submit Information?
So I asked our database guy today about databases, and general things like that. But he's not the best at explaining things. so I'd like to know if you would know the answer and or a place I can go to learn about this question.
When you have input fields in and a submit button. in a flash interface website. what goes on?
- How does the submit button know to input that info. into a database?
-Where do you build the PHP? in the actionscript area?
-As that list grows how can you pull it up to view tha info.
Thanks for your time and help.

Information Highway
Hello,
I'm making a multiplayer game, and this is real time. So i need to get information in and out as fast as possible.
I know there are a few options.
1. PHP/MySQL
2. Text Based Information Storage/Retrieval
3. Flash Communciation Server
Which is the fastest? I'm pretty sure it's no php/mysql and I don't know if flash can edit and then upload a file and i know next to nothing about the flash com server.
If anybody can shed some light on this situation, it would be appreciated.
Thanks.

IE Caches Information...
I have a problem. Internet explorer will not show the correct information when I try to get data from a mysqldb through php...
it works fine with opera and firefox so i guess it has something to do with ie's cache...
a short snippet of the code in the fla:
PHP Code:
dataReciver.onLoad = function() {
if (this.error != 0) { theError = this.error+" "+this.arg; }
else {
var cacheFix = new Date();
var url = this.path + this.file + "?" + cacheFix.getTime();
_root.img.holder.loadMovie(this.path + this.file + "?" + cacheFix.getTime());
theError = "File loaded:" + url;
}
}
no matter what I do, this.file will not hold the information that the browser sends to flash (the correct info is sent)... it is keeping the first value given to it...
i've tried meta tags for no-cache in the html-file where the swf gets embedded and also using moviename.swf?<random value> in the tags where the name of the movie shoud be a parameter...

Help With PHP, Send Information To TXT

Sometime 2003-2004 i got some help with a project here on Flash Kit...
I have lost the thing about the PHP file, i remember that there was a

Is there someone who could help me to make a correct file.
It seems that the code doesnt work without this PHP file.

// create the holder movieclip
this.createEmptyMovieClip("cardNumbers_mc", 0);
this.cardNumbers_mc._x = x;
this.cardNumbers_mc._y = y;
// establish TextFormat
numFormat = new TextFormat();
numFormat.font = "_sans";
numFormat.color = "0x000000";
numFormat.size = 26;
// create textfield for each credit card number
var x_pos = 0; // start counting at 0
for (var i=0; i < 16; i++) { // loop 16 times, creating textfield each time
// find out if i is every 4th number
if (i % 4 == 0) { // if i divides into 4 with no remainder
x_pos += 24; // add 24 px to x_pos (accounting for the space every 4th num)
} else { // if i is not divisible by 4
x_pos += 12; // add 12 px to x_pos
} // end if i mod 4
this.cardNumbers_mc.createTextField("cardNum" + i + "_mc", i, x_pos, 0, 30, 30);
} // end looping 16 times
} // end buildCardNumbers()
// choose a random number between 0 and 9 for each textfield
function setCardNumbers() {
if (timeCount < 20) { // if timeCount has not yet reached 20
for (var i=0; i < 16; i++) { // loop through each text field
with (_root.cardNumbers_mc["cardNum" + i + "_mc"]) {
text = myRandom(0,9); // set the textfield to random num
setTextFormat(numFormat); // apply the TextFormat
} // end "with" grouping
} // end looping through each textfield
} else { // if timeCount has reached 20
clearInterval(cardInterval); // stop the interval from executing
} // end "if timeCount < 100"
timeCount += 1;
} // end setCardNumbers()
// ---------------------------------------
// execute the functions //
// ---------------------------------------
// build the card Numbers at x,y (e.g. 100, 300)
buildCardNumbers(100,300);

Loading Information From XML
Hey .
I seem to have this problem, that nobody can answer.
I want to put pre-loaders onto some components, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
This is the code I've got on Frame 1:
Code:
stop();
//init homeText component
_global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("backgroundColor" , "false");
homeText.html = true;
homeText.wordWrap = true;
homeText.multiline = true;
homeText.label.condenseWhite = true;
//loas css
homeStyle = new TextField.StyleSheet();
homeStyle.load("home.css");
homeText.styleSheet = homeStyle;
//load in XML
homeContent = new XML();
homeContent.ignoreWhite = true;
homeContent.load("home.xml");
homeContent.onLoad = function(success)
{
if(success)
{
homeText.text = homeContent;
}
}
myProgressBarListener2 = new Object();
myProgressBarListener2 = function (eventObject) {
myProgressBar2._visible = false;
};
myProgressBar2.addEventListener("complete", myProgressBarListener2);
myProgressBar2.mode = "polled";
myProgressBar2.source = "this.homeText";
myProgressBar2.conversion = "1";
myProgressBar2.label = "LOADING 裝貨 %3%%";
myProgressBar2.direction = "right";
myProgressBar2.labelPlacement = "bottom";
myProgressBarListener3 = new Object();
myProgressBarListener3 = function (eventObject) {
myProgressBar3._visible = false;
};
myProgressBar3.addEventListener("complete", myProgressBarListener3);
myProgressBar3.mode = "polled";
myProgressBar3.source = "homePic";
myProgressBar3.conversion = "1";
myProgressBar3.label = "LOADING 裝貨 %3%%";
myProgressBar3.direction = "right";
myProgressBar3.labelPlacement = "bottom";
The code is pretty self explanatory, but for some reason it just doesn't work.
I also want to load a picture onto the screen (which is what pre-loader3 is for), that is attached to an .xml document that displays into a dynamic text field right below. If you know how to do this, please help me.
It doesn't seem like it would be extremely difficult to do, but I'm having a problem with it.
If you'd like to see what I have so far, please check out the site at.

I'm not sure if it's good or not, but some feedback would be great as well!!!

Storing Information
I have no idea where to even start. I want to make a program where the variables in Flash will be saved to some... database I guess, and I can call the variables up again when the program is re-started, so the user's information is saved. Like if the guy typed his name in as "Bob" and it was saved as variable "name." I want that variable to still be Bob even if he closes the program and starts it up again. How would I do this?

Best Way To Load Information
Hello everyone
This is my first post at ActionScript.org
I am currently designing a web page for a University/College assignment. It is a Flash Page created in Flash 5.
Basically we have to design a Tv Network Station with 20 channels. I have created an interface with 20 buttons each representing each channel. Then I have three screens that each channels data can load into. These screens never move however they do have animation. They are all instances of one main movie.
The problem that I am having is that I do not know how to load the data into each screen. The first screen will contain text and the second will contain a logo. The 3rd will contain a program guide with a scroll bar. Should I create external swfs and load them into these screens with a on(press) or should I put the data for each screen within there movie properties and call them with a variable.
HELP IM GOING INSANE

Passing Information To SWF On The Fly
The case:
I'm building a website for my band and I decided to execute the interface as the slowly spinning logo of the band, which consists of buttons. I'm planning to put some music on the background, and, in order for it not to break when moving from one page to another, I decided to use Ajax. The back button problem I already sorted out by using RSH (http://code.google.com/p/reallysimplehistory/), but now I'm caught in something I can't seem to be able to sort out. As the user navigates by clicking the buttons on the flash UI, everything goes fine and, as intended, a different movie clip plays on each page. Also, in theory (not tried yet), when bookmarking a page, a javascript or a php script could pass a variable to the SWF via FlashVar telling it where we are and what movie clip to play. So no problem there either. But. The back button. Again, in theory, a script of some sort would need to be executed each time the Ajax operation is executed which would send information to the SWF telling it what page we are on.
Potential solutions:
SWFAddress: This feels like going after a bird with a bazooka rather than a stone. Is it even the right tool, ie does it have the means to solve this and how? The whole documentation is baffling.
Swiff: This looks relatively easy judging by the scarse examples from the MooTools blog, but what according to the blog should work, doesn't. Source: http://blog.mootools.net/2008/2/12/w...w-in-1-2-swiff
Any solutions? Am I completely lost or am I making sense? Any help is highly appreciated. I can put up an in-progress version of the site.
Oh, as it is my first post here, a little word about myself. I'm a beginner at ActionScripting, my background is PHP, JavaScript and little basics of Java and object oriented programming. My best learning method is learning by making a vision work compromising it as little as possible. I'm a drummer and I live in Finland, yay!
EDIT: http://koti.mbnet.fi/sjkok/etappen (doesn't have the history thing enabled yet, but helps to visualize what I'm talking about.)

Getting Information From PHP File
Jesus... I'm feeling the pressure now lol.. about 5 days til my site needs to be finished.
The last thing I'm working on is the hit counter.
I have download and installed a hit counter onto the site. however, I didn't realize that it didnt just easily return and out put file or anything with the hits in a text or PHP file... (So I have to comb throught the PHP I know nothing about and try to find something that looks like a variable for the hit count.)
But here's what I'm asking for:
Once I have found something I want to extract from the file and insert into a dynamic text box. What code do I use to extract it?
Say that...
The PHP file is called "counter.php"
The variable thing I'm getting is "$statsHits['AT']"
The text box in Flash im inserting it into is "textbox" (original eh?)
Does that make sense to you guys? What script do I use to get it into the box from the PHP file.
