Scrolling PHP Tables In Flash (Help)
ok, so I'm trying to take a SMF1-1 file that draws PHP info and plugs it into a flash table, and use it as the content for this scrollable movie instance tutorial.
However, I can't get the first SMF1-1 tutorial to work inside of a movie instance. Currently, you can see this version in root of flash works great. But this version inside movie instance 'test' on layer "test" of the root doesn't load the tables.
Here is the coding I have that is supposed to load the PHP from the test movie instance:
PHP Code:
// Test function sends user on to labelled success or failure frame when called.
test = function (success){
if (success){
// On a successful transfer - we create the 'heading_array' and 'story_array' arrays from the delimited 'heading' and 'story' LoadVars variables.
heading_array = dataloader2.heading.toString().split("|");
story_array = dataloader2.story.toString().split("|");
gotoAndPlay("loaded");} // then forward to the flash frame labelled 'loaded'
else{
gotoAndPlay("failed"); // then forward to the flash frame labelled 'failed'
}
}; // End of test Function.
// Start of actual transfer commands.
dataloader1=dataloader2=new LoadVars(); // create new LoadVars object called 'dataloader1'.
dataloader1.flashdata="value"; // assign the variable 'flashdata' to the new LoadVars object this is the variable which will be read in the PHP script (if required).
dataloader1.onLoad=test; // call the test function when the transfer is complete.
dataloader1.sendAndLoad("phpscript.php", dataloader2, "POST"); // begin the transfer (using 'dataloader2' as the object to return results to).
stop(); // stop the movie (continues on calling the 'test' function).
Then inside the article movie instance on the "loaded" frame of "test" movie instance, I have this to setup the display of the data:
PHP Code:
// Layout vars
space=45; // Pixels between story and new heading
yloc=0; // Initial Y location of first article
// Being article list construction
for(i=0;i<(_level0.heading_array.length);i++){
// Create new article text fields (in 'article' MC)
attachMovie("article","article"+i,this.getNextHighestDepth());
// Add array text to heading and story fields
eval("this.article"+i).heading.text=_level0.heading_array[i];
eval("this.article"+i).story.text=_level0.story_array[i];
// Position 'article' MC at correct Y co-ords (using 'yloc' var)
eval("this.article"+i)._y=yloc;
// Increment 'yloc' var the height of the text field
yloc+=(eval("this.article"+i).story.textHeight+space);
// Alter heights of layout box and story text field depending on length of content
eval("this.article"+i).storylayout._height=eval("this.article"+i).story.textHeight+8;
eval("this.article"+i).story._height=eval("this.article"+i).story.textHeight+8;
} // End article list construction
What am I doing wrong?

Tables In Flash MX
Hi All,
I'm using Flash MX to prepare a presentation CD. It will include a catalogue of products. These will consist of tables with maybe some pictures, mostly text. However, I can't form these in Flash, and I can't import them either?
How can I place these tables in Flash? Any ideas? Capturing the screen and placing it as an image will take up too much space, I think. Maybe placing it as a JPG in an external .swf file? Is this possible ? Thank a lot,
Omer

Tables In Flash
Hi all,
I'm in need of a decent table class for an AS3 project. I don't need anything too fancy - just the ability for the text content to wrap in cells & the whole table to expand downwards in a nice orderly way when more space is needed in a cell. A scroll bar would be good too but not essential.
Time is short on this one, so I haven't time to write one myself - anyone got any recommendations?

Tables In Flash
Hi,
I want to know if there is any way we could create tables in Flash 8 and assign different colors to different tables.I want to do this for my website,but no way.The only way i figured out is to design a rectangle with the desired color,place it on a different layer and under the text which i want it to appear under.
But this is not how i want to design.I want to know to design it in a similar fashion as we do it in Dreamweaver or something similar to that.I would surely appreciate all the help i can get in this regard. Thank you in advance.

Is it possible to import a table from a textfile which has been formatted with html to a textbox in flash, and have the tables displayed there?
Ie. are the td-tags in html available to either the normal textboxes in flash, or the css-versions of them in flash?

*** TABLES IN FLASH ***
i would like to create a table in flash where i can easily add or remove rows, and where clicking on
one of the heading will sort the tables subjects by that value.
An example would be a table with three heading such as "name", "date", "file size". And when a user
clicks on "name" all the subjects underneath will be listed in alphabetical order, and the same would
go for both date and file size.
Any help that you could give me would be great.
thanks.

Creating Tables In Flash
Is there a drop down menu option to create a table in Flash like there is in other word processing program or will I have to create the table by hand.
Dynamic Tables In Flash
Is there some way of creating dynamic tables in Flash? It doesn't have to be an actual table, but something that visually resembles a table.
I need to load some data from an external file (which I know how to do) and then display the information in a table format. Problem is that I don't know until runtime how many rows my 'table' needs to have, so I can't draw a proper table in design mode.
Would it be possible to draw a row and make a symbol out of it, and then use AcionScript to add instances of this symbol as required at runtime, showing external data in each instance as it is added? Would it also be possible to control through ActionScript where these instances are located on the stage?
Sorry for all the questions, but this one is driving me nuts!

Flash, Macs, And Tables = BAD
Hello,
Myself and a few other classmates are having problems displaying our flash movies inside tables on an html page. The problem only occurs when viewing our sites through a Mac computer. I believe the browser is (IE 5.x)
What happens is that sometimes the page will load fine with the flash movie displaying, but once a link is clicked on in the movie, the Flash seems to disapear behind the table so that the background of the table is covering the flash movie. Once you move the mouse over a button (triggering an animation) certain parts of the flash movie will start to appear from the background in square blocks, but most of the movie remains hidden.
Here is the site where this can be seen:
My Site
I've consulted numerous people about this problem and no one has the slightest idea what exaclty is wrong. Everything works fine on a PC by the way.
Thanks,

Help With Importing Tables Into Flash
Hi. I wonder if any of you guys can help me.
I need to import some tables into my flash web site.
The charity that I'm producing the website for have calendars for the courses they run and users of the charity's site have requested that these calendars be posted onto the website.
They also ask that it be possible to be able to print these calendars directly from the web page.
At the moment the original tables are in Word documents.
I can transfer them successfully into Excell, Access and even HTML.
Is there any way that I can transfer these files into a flash movie (dynamically)?
I have tried using the dynamic text field option with rich text set to true and/or turned on. Unfortunately this completely ignores the tables.
Can this be done?
Any help would be muchly appreciated.
Thanks.

HTML Tables In A Flash
Hi. people.
been diggin around & found this.
http://www.flash-db.com/FlashTable/
It worked for me.
I can now show my tables as they were originally intended in HTML. I needed to do a lot of tag changing though. Also the format of the tables come out differently in Flash cokpared to HTML. Still acceptable though.
Hope this helps someone (else) out there.
Bye for now.

Flash Elements In Tables
I currently run a website that is set up with several flash elements butted up next to each other using tables (http://www.deltasoniccarwash.com). This method used to be fine. The tables were invisible to the user. With the latest update of internet explorer this is no longer the case for pc users. Now when my site is viewed in Explorer on a PC grey boxes appear highlighting my table. I am completely redesigning the entire site but if there is any immediate solution to the problem I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Making Tables In Flash (datagrid?)
What's your preferred way of creating tables in Flash?
I looked into the Datagrid component, but its not that flexible as far as the design of table goes, or maybe I'm missing something.
Lets say I use datagrid.
- How can I put image backgrounds to cells?
- How Can I make the corners of the table round?
- When I sort a column, how do I make it show a little arrow next to the column label?
I might have further questions, if there is any expert in this willing to give me some pointers.
Thanks in advance.

Flash To HTML (Switching Out Background Tables)
I am trying to build a flash controller which changes out a background located inside a table inside of my html document.
Currently I have the Flash trying change the background to my html file through javascript.
In javascript, I am using document.write(' ' +args ' ') and having it controlled by a function inside of flash to keep switching out the background(text). . . I am having Flash pass this data out, and I can call it from an alert, but I am not able to write out that information using the document.write command (like above).
I think document.write is called only once on the page load. I need it to be called anytime I hit the next button inside of flash.
Does anyone know of a way to cycle out the background image of my table using flash as the controller?
Thank you for your time.

Flash MX/MySQL -searching Tables Based On User Input
Howdy,
As a "newbie" to MySQL/PHP I am having a small problem searching for the contents of a table based on user input.
What I am trying to do exactly is take input from the user (through Flash) and this input will correspond to a table name which has been set up. From there, I am trying to retireve the information from the table selected and display the contents in Flash.
In PHP I am using the following code:
$tableName = $_POST['tableName'];
//corresponds to flash (var) text input
.
.
.
$query = "SELECT * FROM '$tableName'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);
The query executes but the result is the empty set. Can you please provide any suggestions as to how I can select a table from MySQL based on the user input?
