Flash :: ExternalInterface Actionscript To Javascript In Safari Not Working

Actionscript -> Javascript In Chrome/Safari Not Working
Hello,

I've been working on a flash project that is able to issue commands to the browser window via ExternalInterface.call. It is all working perfectly in IE and FF.

However, in Chrome and Safari, i cannot get AS -> JS communication working at all. Besides ExternalInterface.call not being received by JS, I've also tried tests with navigateToURL (which I understand to be the replacement of getURL) such as:

navigateToURL(new URLRequest('javascript:alert("hi there");'), "_self");
navigateToURL(new URLRequest('javascript:function foo(){alert("hi there");}foo();'), "_self");
ExternalInterface.call("function () { alert('hello');}");
ExternalInterface.call("alert", "hello");

all of which which work fine in IE and FF but do not work in Chrome/Safari. I've tried invoking both named and unnamed function via ExternalInterface.call and navigateToURL, all to no avail.

does anyone know the "magic" fix or workaround to get things rolling in Chrome/Safari?

Thanks!

Javascript, ExternalInterface And Safari
Hello, I'm sending my flex app a command when the user closes the browser window (triggered off of "onbeforeunload" in javascript).

My flex app is connected to a server and when a user closes the window I want the flex app to inform the server that it's logging off.

I have it working well for firefox and IE but it doesn't seem to work in Safari. Then I noticed that it happens sometimes, but rarely. Turns out the command is working in safari but I think what's happening is Safari closes down my app too quickly and my goodbye message to my server never gets sent.

I put in a "return" message in the javascript right after my flex call back to slow it down.. after doing that Safari worked fine (which the exception that I now have a dialog to hit, which I don't want).

Any ideas how to force Safari to get this command callback sent before shutting it down? I think because the command I'm calling does a urlrequest which is threaded it doesn't wait around for it to complete. I need to find a way either in as3 or in javascript to slow it down a little and confirm the command

Thanks for any advice

[F8] ExternalInterface Not Working :-(
...and Flash is not providing any clues as to why not!

I'm publishing to Flash 8, AS2.

In main timeline I have inserted this:

import flash.external.* ;

on a button, later in the movie, I put this:

Code:
on(release){
ExternalInterface.call("sendMessageToVT", "erwerwerwerewr");
}

That doesn't seem to do anything. The button is NOT inside a clip or anything. Does it have to be named? What am I doing wrong?

I know the function works, because it echoes back the data when I use the old getURL method of calling JS.

What are the cons of resorting to old getURL method? I'm afraid I'll have to if I can't sort out ExternalInterface.

PS: I tested Macromedia's own example and it works fine. YES I know it must be uploaded to server to work.

Thanks

Why Isn't This ExternalInterface Working?
I have been trying to use ExternalInterface to record "pages" in my flash site so I can see stats of them in google analytics. For the most part I have been doing this using the following:

ExternalInterface.call("urchinTracker('/main/stock')");

This is working fine. My problem is when I want to dynamically create the path name. I have used the following code but it is not working.

page = "'/"+button+"'"; //button is a variable which holds different strings
tracker = ""urchinTracker("+page+")"";
ExternalInterface.call(tracker);

Anyone spot what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

ExternalInterface.call() Not Working
Hi, I have problem making ExternalInterface.call() method work. I use Flash Pro 8 and .net 2 (COM Shockwave flash object) on Windows Form. I've based my app on "IntrovertIM_CSharp" sample, so I use ExternalInterfaceProxy.dll to manage calls.
Actionscript and c# code are at bottom.
My c# calls to actionscript (proxy.Call) work fine, but my actionscript calls to c# are not executed. "proxy_ExternalInterfaceCall" never gets executed.
Oh, yes, and if I leave "if(ExternalInterface.available)" check, I get app. exception, so app works only if I remove that check (partially though).

Can anyone help on this?

Attach Code

ACTIONSCRIPT:

import flash.external.*;

if(ExternalInterface.available)
{
ExternalInterface.addCallback("testFuntion", null, testFuntion);

function testFuntion(txt:String):Void
{
txtTest.htmlText = txt;
}

ExternalInterface.call("someCall", "something");
}

C#:

...
proxy = new ExternalInterfaceProxy(axShockwaveFlashControl);
proxy.ExternalInterfaceCall += new ExternalInterfaceCallEventHandler(proxy_ExternalInterfaceCall);
proxy.Call("testFuntion", "test");
...
private object proxy_ExternalInterfaceCall(object sender, ExternalInterfaceCallEventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show(e.FunctionCall.FunctionName); // does not execute!!!
switch (e.FunctionCall.FunctionName)
{
case "someCall":
MessageBox.Show((string)e.FunctionCall.Arguments[0]);
return null;
default:
return null;
}

Pop Up Not Working In IE - FSCommand? ExternalInterface?
Hi there! i'm having a problem with a javascript popup window not working in IE. It seems to be the getUrl and an active X issue. It works fine in FF and Safari. When i try it in IE the javascript transparent overlay shows up, but the pop up window does not open.

After reading post after post it seems that I either I need to be using an FSCommand with a VB Script for ie, or ExternalInterface class which is way beyond my comprehension at this point unfortunately. I have tried several things on my own as well, and can't get anything to work.

I was wondering if someone here had a moment to either lead me in the write direction or help me change the code I have into what will work for IE? There are a few others having the same problem that you would be helping immensly!!

Here's my AS code (the obvious)...

Code:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:LightboxDelegate1('images/eyes1.jpg','Editorial & Promotional')");
}
and here's the code I have in my html file...

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />

<script type="text/javascript">
function LightboxDelegate1(url,caption) {
var objLink = document.createElement('a');
objLink.setAttribute('href',url);
objLink.setAttribute('rel','lightbox[editorial]');
objLink.setAttribute('title',caption);
Lightbox.prototype.start(objLink);
}

F8|AS2 ExternalInterface AddCallback Not Working - Help
I have never posted to this forum before but I am about to pull my hair out. Please help.

I've created a page that used External Interface before with no problems and I can't figure out what makes this one different. It works fine on both Firefox and Safari on a Mac. On a pc, however, the Flash has no problem calling JavaScript functions but the JavaScript can't call the ActionScript function. It doesn't matter if I try Firefox, IE7 or IE6. The error IE gives is that the object doesn't support the property or method.

Here is the AS:

Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("samplework_mc", 999);

function loadWork(workname:String):Void {
loadMovie(workname, samplework_mc);
samplework_mc._x=0;
samplework_mc._y=0;
}

ExternalInterface.addCallback("loadWork", this, loadWork);

Here is the HTML/JS:

HTML Code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<style>.popup { position: absolute; visibility: hidden; width: 200; z-index: 20 }</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
function thisMovie(movieName) {
var isIE = navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1;
return (isIE) ? window[movieName] : document[movieName];
}
function changePop(str) {
thisMovie("flashpopup").loadWork(str);
}
function viewPop(str) {
changePop(str);
document.getElementById('example1').style.visibility='visible'
}
function hidePop() {
document.getElementById('example1').style.visibility='hidden';
}
// ]]>
</script>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<div id="flashcontent" style="z-index:10; position:absolute;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject("thumbnails.swf", "thumnails", "750", "350", "8", "#d5d3a7");
so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");
so.write("flashcontent");
// ]]>
</script>

<div class="popup" id="example1"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject("flashpopup.swf", "flashpopup", "800", "500", "8", "#d5d3a7");
so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");
so.write("example1");
// ]]>
</script>

</body>
</html>

I would be grateful for any help or suggestions. I can post the FLA(s) if anyone wants to see them. Thanks!

ExternalInterface Not Working When Browser Closes
Hi

We have an SWF embedded in an html page as follows:
<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
id="Music_Player" width="469" height="250"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/swflash.cab">
<param name="movie" value="Music_Player.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#3c3c3c" />
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<embed src="Music_Player.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#3c3c3c"
width="469" height="250" name="Music_Player" align="middle"
play="true"
loop="false"
quality="high"
allowScriptAccess="sameDomain"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">
</embed>
</object>

On closing the html (browser), I want to call the closeBrowser function within the swf application. Hence I have used the following in my JS in the same html:

window.onbeforeunload = clean_up;
function clean_up()
{

Music_Player.closeBrowser();
//alert('This is a test alert');
}

Application:

if (ExternalInterface.available)
{
ExternalInterface.addCallback("closeBrowser", closeBrowserHandler);
}

Now, what happens is that, unless the alert is put in, the closeBrowserHandler is not executed at all, but when you have the alert, it works like a dream.

Any inputs on this would be appreciated, since this issue has been nagging us for months now.

Secondly, is there a way to detect that the Flex application is exiting / terminating from within the player. I could use this to execute the closeBrowserHandler function too. I could not find any applicationExit event similar to creationComplete .

Thanks,
Pooja

ExternalInterface.call Inside Iframe Not Working In IE
Hi all,

The structure of my site is as follows:

mainPage.html contains - menu.swf & iframe1

iframe1 contains - subpage.html

subpage.html contains - subMenu.swf & contentpage.html

The way it works is that when menu.swf is clicked it changes the .src of iframe1 to load the appropriate subpage.html. Then when you click the subMenu.swf it changes the .src of iframe2 to load the appropriate contentpage.html

This is all probably better illustrated if you have a look at the site http://www.curvecreations.com/portfo...cv_navnew.html

It all works perfectly in Firefox but in IE the ExternalInterface call from the subMenu never reaches the container page to change the .src of the iframe.

It seems as though it's something to do with the .swf being inside the iframe because I am still able to call a javascript function from within the iframe using an html button.

If anyone can help in any way i would be very grateful as my head is beginning to hurt from banging it against my desk.

FLV In Safari Not Working
Hi All!

I've been lurking around here for about a year now, and I've learned quite a bit from this site since then.

My FLV videos aren't playing when trying to view it in Safari (2.0.4) online. Weird thing is, Safari works completely fine LOCALLY. Something is causing the flv's to fail (when trying to view them in Safari) once it goes up on the web server, but works fine with every other browser I've tested it on (PC: FF 1.5.0.9, IE 7; MAC: FF 1.0.7).

Does anybody have any kind of insight to what's going on here?

If you'd like to see the issue: www.ampdstudiosessions.com
Click on the thumbnails at the bottom of the page (yeah, bad web design but that's someone else's problem )

Thanks in advance for any help you can give...

HELP : AS Not Working When Previewed On SAFARI
Hello,

I have been a PC user for the last 10 years, and just a year ago, I shifted to MAC. I haven't done anything on my website so I thought I'd update it today. The problem is, my AS is not working on SAFARI but works when it's played on the FLASH PLAYER. I have doubled checked my script and it seems to be ok so far. I need a second opinion on this one.

Please point me to the right direction.

Download my FLA at this url http://www.allanrestauro.com/downloa.../interface.fla

[F8] ExternalInterface, JavaScript N ActionScript
I am trying to understand flash.external.ExternalInterface;
I want to call a function in javascript that will return the url to flash. When I press the button in flash that is supposed to call the function, I am returned null and I do not get the alert from the function.

Here is my JavaScript code

Code:
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
function getLocation() {
return window.location.toString();
alert("wow");
}
</script>
Here is my ActionScript code

Code:
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;

function displayPageLocation():Void {
locationDisplay.text = ExternalInterface.call("getLocation","",new Object());
}

locationButton.addEventListener("click", mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, displayPageLocation));

ActionScript To JavaScript, ExternalInterface
Hi, searched for this problem but the solution does not match my case. And if it does I really don't understand how this works. Anyhow.

First off I import the ExternalInterface within my class. After that I make the call.

Code:
ExternalInterface.call("myFunction", "Works!");
My script which is in the HTML looks like this.

HTML Code:
<script language="javascript">
function myFunction(string)
{
alert(string);
}
</script>
Now why won't this work? I always get some security-complaint but all the files are local. Im very very sure..

Javascript Call Not Working In Safari
I have a dynamic text field where I create an html link based on a couple of pieces of data.

Here's an example of the code for the link:

My problem is that the popup works fine in Windows IE, Mac/Win Firefox just fine. It won't work in Safari. It shows as link, but when you click, nothing happens. Can anyone think of a reason why this wouldn't work?

I also have an onPress handler on a movieclip that won't work in Safari:

getURL("javascript:openVidPlayer('/vidplayer.html?video=" + sel.v_id + "&category=" + sel.cat + "');", "_parent");

is an action I use at the last frame of my movie. It works fine in windows. But I just got a macbook pro and in Safari the movie just keeps looping without ever going to index2.html. Weird as well, is the code that embeds the movie in the html page says not to loop... ?

What do I need to do to make this thing run thru once and jump to the next page in Safari? The actual page is at
www.centerpointpilates.com/index.html
P.S. I know the flash is unspectacular, the client wanted something temporary until we could hire someone to make one that is flashier.

Code:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="700" HEIGHT="500" id="splashBlack8" ALIGN="top">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="splashBlack8.swf" /> <PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false /> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high /> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000 /> <EMBED src="splashBlack6.swf" loop=false quality=high bgcolor=#000000 WIDTH="700" HEIGHT="500" NAME="splashBlack8" ALIGN="top"

Feed Burner Reader Not Working In Safari And IE
I built an RSS reader in Actionscript 3 a while ago and have never had any problems until now.

Strangely, the reader works perfectly in FireFox and Opera, but does not in Safari and Internet Explorer 7. After looking into things, it seems to be a problem with what data my URLLoader is getting.

In FireFox, it gets an XML file, and URLLoader.data is of type XML.

In Safari and IE7, using the same feed address, URLLoader.data is not XML. Instead, it is the HTML to some kind of default Feed Burner page.

I've searched this forum and the internet and can't find mention of this problem. Anyone have any ideas? Why would different browsers cause the SWF to receive different data?

Maybe there's a way to get a pure XML file from Feed Burner feed without it forwarding?

Thanks in advance for any help

Cheers,

Kevin

Flash 8 Popup Window Not Working In Safari And Firefox
Hi, it just seems I can't make this work.
I wanted to create a simple popup window in Flash 8, added the script code to the page and used getURL("function in the script('page')") but it didn't work.
I also tried fscommand even if it's deprecated for Mac browsers.
I downloaded a couple of working .flas and (when I published the swf in Flash 8) didn't work either.

Anyways my code so far is:

Flash:

Code:
btn.onRelease = function () {
getURL("javascript:hey('danilo.htm')");
}
HTML:

Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
function hey(page) {
window.open(page)
}
</script>
Flash parameters:

Code:
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="popup.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="popup.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="400" name="popup" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
Some help needed...please!

Interactive Map Not Working In Safari Browser (Macintosh Machine)
Hi,
I've an interactive map to locate some places. Eveything is working fine in pc. but it's not working in safari (Macintosh Machine). While clicking the buttons at the bottom of map, the map is not scrolling to locate the position.

As far as I know the browser acts as like a tool to display the flash content. Everything is rendered by flash player.

But why it is happening like this. The flash player (Ver 8.0) I've tested is same in PC and Mac machine.

This is the url

Any one can suggest a solution for this it will be very helpful. thanks in advance.

Preloader Not Working In IE, Works Great In Safari And Firefox.
FLASH MX/1.0
I am wondering if anyone knows why this preloader does not work in Internet Explorer but works great in Safari and Firefox? I got the the preloader script from this tutorial:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/p...epreloader.htm

This is pretty much the only script used:
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
this.loadBar._width = getPercent*100;
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}

Is there something missing that would make it work in IE?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
BTW, here is the link to the site I am working on, you can test it in different browsers and see for yourself:

Blend> Overlay Is Not Working In Safari Over Site's Background Image
My message is concerning the website (below) called suspendedinsound.com.

The blend mode, Overlay, is not working on several of my movie clips in the Safari browser.

The Flash swf and html is published with a transparent background. I put a bg image (via CSS) in the html code. The objects with overlay (the large animating gold rings and play/stop/mute buttons), are not "overlaying" over the html's background image. They look yellow or cream instead of being very subtle (dark reddish brown). This is only a problem in the Safari browser. Looks great in Firefox and IE.

Anybody have a solution?

Thanks

Actionscript 2.0 & Sound Object & Safari Probs
building an mp3 player and have created a class which creates the visual player and another which controls the sound object (play, stop, fade ins/outs).

However the problem is this:

when i click on a track, it starts streaming fine and after a few seconds it starts playing.

when I click the track again or any different track I get a message in safari's activity panel saying "plug-in canceled" in red! and also the status bars says "There was one error opening the page".

I know that what it should do when I select a different track is continue to download the original track - or am I wrong on that?

How can I stop this happening?

Thanks

Actionscript Not Working
Below is a script that has worked perfectly when I've used it before, yet it won't work this time.

The clip that this script is attached to loads in an external .swf file.. once it's fully loaded, I want another movieclip to become invisible.. but it's not working.. it doesn't become invisible.

Can anybody see what I'm doing wrong?

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this._url != _root._url && !loaded) {
var kilobytes = Math.ceil(this.getBytesTotal()/1024);
var percentLoaded = Math.ceil((this.getBytesLoaded()/this.getBytesTotal())*100);
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (percentloaded == 100) {
setProperty (_root.shiningdownpreloader, _visible, false);
}
}

Actionscript Not Working ?
i have a piece of code which netscape doesnt seem to like can anyone suggest a modification to this or have a solution

icounter=icounter++;
myvar = "label"+icounter;
gotoAndStop (myvar);

i have three labels on the stage, pressing the button with this code on it just brings you from label one to label 3. it doesnt seem to like "label"+icounter;

there is more code on the button but it is this piece that isnt working.

i would like to keep it simple like this so the one button can be used instead of three seperate instances of the button with three seperate pieces of code.

works in IE fine.

any ideas

Actionscript Not Working :o(
In my flash movie i have buttons which all have the same code(basically)

They have an on release command then go to whatever frame. For some reason though the last button doesnt work when clicked for the second time. So you can click on it the first time, but then when it runs and finishes if you want to repeat it, it wont work! I genuinely cant see what ive done wrong as the code is pretty damn simple and its almost like flash has just buggered!

Any ideas?

Thanks

Actionscript Not Working?
I did a menu in flash using action script. Its a mac menu, when you go over the icons it gets bigger.

It works fine on my computer, but in other computers it just does not resize.

Anyone know what it could be?

Below is the script, which is in the main scene of the movie.

MovieClip.prototype.scaleTo = function(xscale, yscale, speed, callbackObj, callbackFunc) {
this.createEmptyMovieClip('scale_mc', 2);
this.scale_mc.xscale = xscale;
this.scale_mc.yscale = yscale;
this.scale_mc.speed = speed;
this.scale_mc.callBackObj = callbackObj;
this.scale_mc.callBackFunc = callbackFunc;
this.scale_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._parent._xscale += (xscale-this._parent._xscale)/speed;
this._parent._yscale += (yscale-this._parent._yscale)/speed;
if ((Math.abs(xscale-this._parent._xscale)<0.4) && (Math.abs(yscale-this._parent._yscale)<0.4)) {
this._parent._xscale = xscale;
this._parent._yscale = yscale;
var cbo = this.callBackObj;
var cbf = this.callBackFunc;
var prt = this._parent;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
this.removeMovieClip();
cbo[cbf](prt, 'scaleTo');
}
};
};
MovieClip.prototype.alphaTo = function(alpha, frames, callbackObj, callbackFunc) {
this.createEmptyMovieClip('alpha_mc', 3);
this.alpha_mc.alpha = alpha;
this.alpha_mc.frames = frames;
this.alpha_mc.framecount = 1;
this.alpha_mc.aperframe = (alpha-this._alpha)/frames;
this.alpha_mc.callBackObj = callbackObj;
this.alpha_mc.callBackFunc = callbackFunc;
this.alpha_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._parent._alpha += this.aperframe;
if (this.framecount == this.frames) {
this._parent._alpha = this.alpha;
var cbo = this.callBackObj;
var cbf = this.callBackFunc;
var prt = this._parent;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
this.removeMovieClip();
cbo[cbf](prt, 'alphaTo');
} else {
this.framecount++;
}
};
};
stop();
_root.onMouseMove = function ()
//number of variables are here
{
for (var i=0; i!=29; i++) {
var xdst = Math.abs(_root._xmouse - _root["item"+i]._x);
var ydst = Math.abs(_root._ymouse - _root["item"+i]._y);
var scale = 165-(xdst/1);
var alpha = 100-(xdst/5);
//this is the distance that icons are effective 30 works!

} else {

// First 2 numbers, are the scale in which they rest in
// third number is the speed in which icons go back into
// place
_root["item"+i].scaleTo(100, 100, 3);
_root["item"+i].alphaTo(90, 90);
}
}

Why Isn't This Working In Actionscript 2.0?

WSPEED = 1;
MovieClip.prototype.drawBlade = function() {
this.clear();
this.moveTo(-5, 0);

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Actionscript Not Working?
Im having trouble with this sig im making, and one I was trying to make before. I gave up on the last one becuae I could just not figure out why it wasnt working. I dont understand what Im doing wrong with my code.

Code:
sparkleOver.onRollOver = function() {
mcNotice._alpha = 0
}
There's one example.
sparkleOver is a mc inside of a button.
mcNotice is on the root layer.
This code is running from the root layer on an actions frame.

Got Actionscript Working With PHP... Almost...
Ok, so for the last few weeks I have been working on a real estate program inside of flash. It pulls data from an SQL database beautifully. I also made it so it could pick a price range. Now I am trying to create some dropdown menus with additional selections. The dropdown works fine and returns the proper value upon selection. If I copy the URL it creates I get the results properly, however inside of flash i keep getting this error:

TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null.
at flash.text::TextField/set text()
at omgworking4_fla::MainTimeline/ParseVilla()
at omgworking4_fla::MainTimeline/LoadXML()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/flash.events:EventDispatcher::dispatchEventFunctio n()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at flash.net::URLLoader/flash.net:URLLoader:nComplete()

The issue code in frame 1 (the search frame) is:

function gotest(event:MouseEvent):void
{
test = "http://www.lebanoninternational.com/english/realestate/allinfo.php?pricelow="+pricelow.text
+"&pricehigh="+pricehigh.text
+"&region="+regionlist.selectedItem.data;
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

The test variable passes to frame 2 and then:

trace (test);
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest(test + new Date().getTime()));

function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);
ParseVilla(xmlData);
}

var addy:int;

So I guess I am throwing it up here to see if you guys have any ideas. Like I said, the php code is working but for some reason flash is seeing the database as empty. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

-Kris
