Flash Password Protection: Easily Bypassed> Solution?
When you create a password promt in flash, it really doesn't do anything. Right click on the flash movie, and choose "Play" and you are through the system. Is there some way to disable the "play" feature? I'm REALLY bad at scripting.. I currently just have the slide transition speed at 120/min. It works enough for what I'm currently using it for, but there MUST be another way.
I hope this hasn't been brought up yet, this is my first time back to Kirupa.com in a year! If so (^) please leave a link to the thread.
Thanks

[flash Mx] Need Password Protection Help Please....
I'm trying to create password protection something like this site's:
http://pinkletoes.com/index2.php [under the "candy store" link]
I've tried looking up tutorials, but all I can find are ones that tell me how to create one password for one movie. What I'd like to do is use one input field and have multiple possible passwords that would take you to their corresponding movies.
Thanks for your help!

Password Protection
Howdy,
I'm trying to make some low level password protection for a site and I mean "Low Level". What I would like to do is create an entry box that the visitor would enter a password into. When they click "ENTER" the script will check to see if the word they entered matches. If it does then the main index site page will open, replacing the current window.
I've been told that I could do this with HTML and a CGI but I don't have access to that. I figured Flash has the capability and then I don't have to worry about a CGI.
I know some basic action scripting but nothing to elaborate. Be gentle.

Password Protection
hello,
does anyone know how to make a password protected area on a site? what's to stop someone from just typing the URL and getting past the password page.?, i have a password page, it's 3 frames. frame one is prompting the user to enter the password. frame 3 is where he goes if he types in a wrong password. frame 2 is the page where s/he goes if they type in the right one. from there, they can click a button to get in. what's to stop the viewer from doing a "forward one step" (when you right click on a flash movie, this option is there). is there a way to make it totally secure?
thanks for the help...

My input box is named variable "password".
I need to POST the parameter "pass" which should based on the variable "password" to a server . This is what I have written to the submit button:
on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
getURL ("?pass=eval (password)", "_self", "POST");
}
It returns this:

Password Protection
Please will someone help me!!!! I downloaded a flash file that offers password protection. It has user name and password. It said I could create up to 10,000 users. I can't get in contact with the guy who created it and I am VERY new to Flash. How do I create the names and passwords. Also, it says it allows access to a .html file. How do I direct it to the file I want? Also, what prevents someone from just typing in the URL of the target site, and thus bypassing the password prompt? Sorry to lay a lot on ya'll but I am dying and I am on a deadline which was supposed to be today...

Password Protection
How secure is flash if you check off "protect from import" in Publish Settings? Aren't there programs that can still import your file?
Is there a better (more secure) way of doing password protection? For example say I had a page where a user could eneter a user name and password to get to a certain section of my site. What if I made the user name and password into variables and then passed them to an ASP page or something similar(I lack knowledge in this department) and then that page processed the username and password? Is it possible to pass variables out of a swf file?
Thanks for any help.

Password Protection Help
hello... I was reading this tutorial.. yes... it's still late at night as it was from my previous post about target paths of my instances...
but here's another thing I'm wondering... I was reading this tutorial:
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Ac...-645/index.php
and I looked at it... and I was wondering... is there any way to turn this into a type of thing where you input a password instead of generating one...
that way I can use it as a keygen and applie it to a CD-Protection passkey type interface I'm developing...
I'm not exactly good with strings in flash... I'm just... intermediate and kinda expert I guess...
I can exactly write hard and bare actionscript code from the top of my head though and make it do what I want it to do... like make a scrolling menu or something.... but that's besides the point...
any of you know how to convert this formula in this tutorial to a password input? so I can use it as a keygen for CD-Protection? (it wont be just the projector trust me... there'll be lots of protection around it)
thanks to whoever helps me =) I really appreciate it =)

Password Protection...
Hey, I was wondering if I wanted to password protect different parts of my movie, could I have a login screen that will first get the username and password entered then search a text file to see if the username and password match, and if they do give the user access but if they don't then deny access. I want to do this using a text field, so I was thinking a text file database but I am confused as to how to set that up in flash.
Thanks in advance.

Password Protection
Hi all,
I would like to implement password protection for my Flash site that I hope to start on soon. I have a book titled Developing Websites with Macromedia Flash MX by Rickard Muller and from what I can tell, it's going to be a helpful resource for me. On page 290 of the book, there's a code example for password protection which is shown below:
on (release) {
password = password.toLowerCase();
if (password == "flashmx") {
gotoAndPlay ("Scene 2", 1);
} else {
gotoAndPlay ("Scene 3", 1);
}
}
How can I modify this code so that the password is NOT automatically set to lowercase. More importantly, I would like 2 passwords to be used. How can I allow for this?

Password Protection
I've been working on a flash site for a while and it is almost done. What I'm left to do is add a password protected page which the members can access thru a log-in.
Is this reliable or is there a way the information can be cracked? More specifically, lets say I set a variable to be a password and use a conditional to check if the input equals the variable. Unless someone else has access to the .fla the password cannot be cracked right?
Cheers :>

I am just getting into AS 2.0 cold. It is going OK so far... I am learning. Thinking aboout PW protection.
Can I create an entire system with a data base which creates user accounts with all the normal features -- log in, lost PW key words, etc....
Just wondering about that. I am thinking XML to hold the data.
I think the answer is yes already... Is difficult...?
I don't think there is any easy way to accomplish this...

Best Password Protection?
I need to password protect my galleries. I also need to have it so the photographer can easily create a folder, upload pics, and make a username and password for that folder. What is the best way to do this.
XML is no good because people can just pull that up, right?
.txt files you think would be as bad as .txt but apparently browsers can't read .txt, so maybe it's good?
I don't think .htaccess is the way to go because I don't want the person messing that up.
Anything else?
Thanks everyone.

Password Protection Help
I've made a small site with flash password protection. Just password input text and a button enter with an if/else statement. Only if you use forward (rightclick) you can skip the password protection.
My flash swf is made from two scenes, the password scene and the site-scene. So there are two options I guess:
-no rightmouse click allowed
-good actionscript which doesn't allow the 'forward' option in the player
Thanks in advance!

Ive also tried:
gotoAndPlay("index", "preloader");
But still it doesn't work

Password Protection And Direction
I'm looking to create a simple login with a username and password. The catch is I want the username to determine where you get re-directed to. So for instance if you enter username "BOB" it takes you to bob's page. or if you enter username "SALLY" it takes you to her page?

Username & Password Protection
I have a script I have found and slightly modified to help me achieve a user name and password protection for a flash file. I understand there is no way to ensure protection of flash files. Fortunetly for me I am looking to add protection to filter out people in a company browsing around the server or other instances.
My question is: How can I add another username and password to the script below?
I have played with it a little and could add a username and password behind the ones listed, but ofcourse all that enables is another username and password option. I would want to use employees "employee number" and their password to enter the flash material. Basically right now I have only one username that matches its particular password. I want to add other users that match thier specific passwords.
I'm sure there are better ways to go about this and am open to them. I don't know much other scripting but can pick up on it. I would like to hopefully do it in flash, considering there won't be many people haveing "access". Maybe .xml could be set up and go from there. I have little experience with xml but have researched and done a few tutorials with it in flash.
Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Luke

Password Protection, Link Problems
Hi, I'm currently working on a Flash site for my first client and I'm having some issues. Luckily, I'm employed by this client for a completely different job, but since I recently graduated with a Graphic Arts degree they're having me design their web page for them. Anywho, I have a couple of problems. 1: My links to navigate around the site don't work right. Instead of taking me to the correct pages, they take me from the Home page to the second page to the third to the fourth, etc. in the order they were created using the same button. As far as I know, my action scripting is correct, for example to take me to the company directory page:
on (release) { gotoAndPlay ('Staff', '1') }
for that particular scene is entitled "Staff" and I want it to start at frame 1. However, I can keep clicking on the "Company Directory" button link and it goes to a different page each time I click on it. I never had this problem when I used Flash in school but we used Flash 5.0 and I now have Flash MX and some of that kind of stuff is different. My other problem is their needs to be a password protected login for clients to send us orders which I have no clue how to do whatsoever. ANY help would be oh so GREATLY appreciated!!!Thanks!!!!

//if the wrong password is entered, let the user know immediately

if (PassField == "Ostarello") {
gotoAndPlay ("The Movie", 1);
} else {
gotoAndPlay("Not Authorized", 1);

Bypassed An XML Namespace, But What Did I Do?
I just started using AS3 for my first project, and I'm pretty sure I'm already in over my head. It's a widget that pulls in several XML/RSS feeds, one of which is from a weather vendor. Their feed starts:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<adc_database xmlns="http://www.aweathervendor.com">
<updated>5/30/2008 1:55:00 PM UTC</updated>
<units>
<temp>F</temp>
<dist>Miles</dist>
<speed>mph</speed>
<pres>in</pres>
<prec>in</prec>
</units>
</adc_database>
I had trouble parsing that out, until I manually edited the feed and removed the namespace attribute. Wow -- did that ever affect things in AS2? I can't remember -- don't know enough about 'em.
Thankfully, I found a thread in here that solved the problem, but...
...I don't know what I did. Can someone explain the syntax in the code that I used to trace/capture the nodes I needed to use?
This didn't work:
Code:
_oWxData.current_temp = e.target.oXML.currentconditions.temperature;
This worked (the namespace compensation):
Code:
_oWxData.current_temp = e.target.oXML.*::currentconditions.temperature;
What did I do with E4X in the second part?
Thanks,

Frame 1 Actions Bypassed
I've noticed that very often, if you gotoAndStop(1) that certain ActionScript calls (such as stop()) are sometimes ignored, and the movie will play from that point, for example. I remember someone else referring to this once as a bug in Flash (even back in ver. 4), but never read anything very definitive about it.
Can someone point me in the right direction? my guess is that there's a technote on MM's support site about it, or some posts on the more popular forums, like were-here, but I'm not really sure what to try searching for.

Previously I have been using .txt files an having them load into a dynamic text box.

Is their anyway you can load html in to a dynamic text box? or anything really.
I would just like somthing thats easy to code into my flash site, and works well.

[F8] Easily Updated Flash Gallery
Hi,
I'm just wondering what other web developers use for flash gallery's so that the end user of the site can easily maintain and update the sites on their own with no XML editing. I don't think building a custom backend administrative tool for updating the gallery's on their host server is necessary, there must be an option out there already. (no sense reinventing the wheel)
So I'd like to know from the community what others are using. I'm looking for something that's extremely easy to use, a nice looking flash gallery and perhaps the administrative backend the user would use to update their gallery's would also have ftp built in so it uploads to the server without them having to do any code changes.
For the poor web developer (me) I'd like something that is relatively simple to integrate into an existing website.
Thanks

Building An Easily Updatetable Flash Site?
hi all...phew, ain't been on here for a little while now (damn summer jobs )
ok, to the serious stuff...i am a serious golf gti fan, and consequently, i am a memeber of one of the UK's best gti fan based forums. Now, within that forum i have posted a few examples of my graphic design work, and yesterday i recieved an email from the chairman of the board telling me that he'd like me to redesign his main site (which is pretty **** looking atm, see http://elite1000.co.uk now, in terms of desing, i'm ok, i know exactly what i want to do with his site (which is pretty much working around the same sections he already has existing) but, he would llike me to design and possibly maintain the site with regular updates in mind. so heres the question : is it, and how is it, possible to design a flash site, where you can update text and pictures (jpegs) easily? like do you guys refere to it as being dynamic?
theres no money in this whatsoever for me, and i really want to do it out fo pure enthusiasm, and don't want to let him down - only thing is, i just need some help on how to create a site that i can update pretty frequently without having too much bother
please help guys
