Sending Data To PHP File

SENDING DATA TO A .txt Or .csv File
Hi, I have been looking for a tutorial to enable me to set up a flash movie with say 10 buttons. Each one has a name and when you click it sends the name to a .txt file and builds up a list of the choosen buttons. Does anyone one of a php script that I can learn from?

Sending Data To A PHP File
Hi, I would like to set up a form that users can fill out on my web site, and then submit it to a php file on my server. How can this be done? I am still new to all this so I'd greatly appreciate an explanation with easy to understand steps.

I would like to have several fields:

title, link, description, subject, creater... and then to log the date. Is this possible? Thanks so much!

Sending Data To A Text File
I want someone to be able to type in some text and save it to a text file using ASP. Howeverif they type "&", when Flash reads the textfile it doesn't read anything beyond the "&" sign because it thinks it is the end of the variable..... anyway, is it possible to use this character and somehow write it to the text file where it doesn't show up as a "&" for code, but an "&" for simple text? Thanks.

Problems With Sending Data To Php File.
I hope you guys can help me. I am creating a teenage parenting guide for online. After you have gone through the course, you need to complete a quiz. So, I am using the built in quiz component in Flash 8. What I need is the information from the quiz (# right, latency, how many wrong etc) to populate a database. The developer and I have gotten everything working except one section. The SessionArray.i.latency and SessionArry.i.numOfTries are the only two things that don't send any data. Everything else works great. Here is the code...


Code:
on (release) {

var activity_ID = QuizTrack.activity_ID;
var activity_name = QuizTrack.activity_name;

var total_correct = QuizTrack.total_correct;
var total_wrong = QuizTrack.total_wrong;
var elapsed_time = QuizTrack.elapsed_time;
var quest_num = QuizTrack.quest_num;


for (i = 0; i <= quest_num; i++){
_root["question"+i+"latency"] = SessionArray.i.latency;
_root["question"+i+"numOfTries"] = SessionArray.i.numOfTries;
}

var submit = true; //tell the container that the send button has been pressed
getURL("index.php","_self", "POST"); //send the data to php

}
I should note that I have a dynamic text box(at the end of the flash) and it's variable is assigned SessionArray.2.latency, and it displays the correct information in the flash, the php file just never receives it.

Validating Components And Sending Data To A Php File
I have created a form with input text fields, and components. The components I have used are a list box and a combo box. What I would like to do is validate my components, and then submit there variables to my php file. Also I would like to, make them prompt the user whether or not they have selected the state or country.

here is the fallowing code that calls up information for my lis box and combo box also the as files.

stop();
#include "form_validate2.as"
#include "contact2.as"
// set just in case

// The labels in the listbox
myLabels = new Array("USA", "Canada", "Bahrain", "Chile", "China", "France", "Malaysia", "Protugal", "Taiwan R.O.C.", "Venezuela", "Albania", "Algeria", "American Samba", "Antarctica", "Argentina", "Australia", "Austria", "Bahamas", "Bangladesh", "Barbados", "Belgium", "Belize", "Bermuda", "Bolivia", "Bosnia and Herzegovina", "Brazil", "Bulgaria", "Columbia", "Costa Rica", "Croatia", "Cuba", "Czech Republic", "Denmark", "Denmark", "Dominican Republic", "Ecuador", "Egypt", "El Salvador", "Finland", "Germany", "Guam", "Hong Kong SAR", "Hungary", "Iceland", "India", "Indonesia", "Iran", "Iraq", "Ireland", "Israel", "Italy", "Jamaica", "Jordan", "Korea", "Kuwait", "Lebanan", "Lithuania", "Mexico", "Morocco", "Netherland", "Norway", "Peru", "Philippines", "Poland", "Puerto Rico", "Romania", "Russia", "Samoa", "Saudi Arabia", "South Africa", "Spain", "Sweden", "Switzerland", "Syria", "Turkey", "Ukraine", "United Arab Emirates", "United Kingdom", "United States", "Virgin Islands");
// Populate the listbox
for (i=0; i<myLabels.length; i++) {
country_str.addItem(myLabels[i]);
}
// Display function
function listDisplay(component){
list = component.getSelectedItem().label;
}
// You get the picture
country_str.setChangeHandler("listDisplay");

// The labels in the listbox
myLabels = new Array("Alabama", "Alaska", "Alberta", "American Samoa", "Arizona", "Arkansas", "British Columbia", "California", "Colorado", "Connecticut", "Delaware", "District of Columbia", "Fed. States of Micronesia", "Florida", "Georgia", "Guam", "Hawaii", "Idaho", "Illinois", "Indiana", "Iowa", "Kansas", "Kentucky", "Louisiana", "Maine", "Marshall Islands", "Maryland", "Massachusetts", "Michigan", "Minnesota", "Mississippi", "Missouri", "Montana", "Nebraska", "Nevada", "New Hampshire", "New Jersey", "New Mexico", "New York", "North Carolina", "Northern Mariana Islands", "Ohio", "Oklahoma", "Ontario", "Oregon", "Palau", "Pennsylvania", "Puerto Rico", "Quebec", "Rhode Island", "South Carolina", "South Dakota", "Tennessee", "Texas", "Utah", "Vermont", "Virgin Islands", "Virginia", "Washington", "West Virginia", "Wisconsin", "Wyoming");
// Populate the listbox
for (i=0; i<myLabels.length; i++) {
state_str.addItem(myLabels[i]);
}
// function to display the selection
function comboDisplay (component) {
combo = component.getSelectedItem().label;
}
// We assign the function to the combobox
state_str.setChangeHandler ("comboDisplay");

"I have also attatched the as file for contact2.as, which is in the txt format and not the as format"

Thanks!

Uploading A File AND Sending Form Data
I've created a flash form for users to enter their information then upload a file to our server.

I haven't figured out a way to send the form data AND perform the upload at the same time.

Could someone look at the code I've used and tell me how I could upload the file AND send the form variables at the same time?


Here is my code for fileReference:

ActionScript Code:
// Specify allowable file types.
var allTypes = new Array();

var docTypes = new Object();
    docTypes.description = "Allowed Script Formats(*.pdf, *.celtx)";
    docTypes.extention = "*.pdf; *.celtx";
   
    allTypes.push(docTypes);

// Set up listener object to allow file selection via browse.
var listener = new Object();
    listener.onSelect = function(file){
        filename.text = file.name;
    }

    listener.onIOError = function(file) {
        log.addItem("An IO Error occured");
    }
   
    listener.onSecurityError = function(file, errorString) {
        log.addItem("SecurityError: " + file.name + " ErrorString: " + errorString, "Error");
    }

    listener.onCancel = function(file){
        log.addItem("Selection Canceled");
        filename.text = "Selection Canceled";
    }

    listener.onOpen = function(file) {
        filename.text("onOpen: " + file.name);
    }
    listener.onProgress = function(file){
       
    }
    listener.onHTTPError = function(file, httpError) {
        log.addItem("HTTP Error :" + httpError);
    }
    listener.onComplete = function(file) {
         submit._visible = true;
         log.addItem("File is uploaded");
       
    }
    listener.onProgress = function(file, bytesLoaded, bytesTotal) {
    progress.mode = "manual";
    progress.setProgress(bytesLoaded, bytesTotal);
    log.addItem("bytesLoaded: " + bytesLoaded + " bytesTotal: " + bytesTotal);
    }

   
// Set up file listener for file reference.
var fileRef = new flash.net.FileReference();
    fileRef.addListener(listener);
   
// BROWSE BUTTON FUNCTIONS
browse.onRelease = function(){
    fileRef.browse([{description: "Allowed Script Formats", extension: "*.pdf;*.celtx"}]);
    }
   
// UPLOAD BUTTON FUNCTIONS 
upload.onRelease = function(){
    fileRef.upload("uploadfile.php");
}
   
//SUBMIT BUTTON FUNCTIONS
submit.onRelease = function(){
    // CHECK FOR MISSING FIELDS
    if (first.text==""||last.text ==""||h_addy.text ==""||city.text==""||state.text == ""||zip.text == ""||phone.text == ""||email_addy.text == ""||stitle.text == ""||synopsis.text == ""){
        // MISSING FIELDS. PLAY ERROR MESSAGE
        _root.missingfields._visible = true;
        _root.missingfields.gotoAndPlay("go");
        submit._visible = false;
        }else{
        // Set up LoadVariables
        var lv_result = new LoadVars ();
            lv_result.onLoad = function (success){
                //Clear form fields
                first.text="";
                last.text ="";
                h_addy.text = "";
                city.text = "";
                state.text = "";
                zip.text = "";
                phone.text = "";
                email_addy.text = "";
                stitle.text = "";
                synopsis.text = "";
                wga.text = "";
                usc.text = "";
                submission_type.text ="";
                filename.text = "";
                consideration.setValue (false);
                coverage.setValue (false);
                submit._visible = false;
                waive._visible = false;
                myresponse.text = lv_result.myresult;
                   
            }
                           
    }
    var send_lv = new LoadVars();
        send_lv.fname = fname.text;
        send_lv.lname = lname.text;
        send_lv.h_addy = h_addy.text;
        send_lv.city = city.text;
        send_lv.state = state.text;
        send_lv.zip = zip.text;
        send_lv.phone = phone.text;
        send_lv.email_addy = email_addy.text;
        send_lv.stitle = stitle.text;
        send_lv.synopsis =  synopsis.text;
        send_lv.wga = wga.text;
        send_lv.usc = usc.text;
        send_lv.submission_type = submission_type.text;
        send_lv.filename = filename.text;
        send_lv.sendAndLoad("submitdb.php",lv_result,"POST");
};

Ideally I wouldn't even need the upload button but have everything take place when the user submits the form.

Sending Data To Php
Well people , here goes the problem , I know really not much about php , except for a few commands that allow database control and a few commands for reading this data and forming it as xml.
My greatest problem is how do you send data from a swf to a php script so that it can save it in a database.
PLEASE I BEG YOU DO NOT TELL ME "USE POST METHOD".I know it is what i have to use the question is HOW ? please post some action script code which for example which makesa simple textfield and when user inputs some text and clicks a btn the sfw sends that data to a php script ... then just a little example of how the php should look ... i mean it to be made to recieve the passed data from the swf and save it to a variable.
Any help will be grately appreciated , i am trying to do that for quite a long time and i always screw it .Thanks for your attention.
With respect and warm regards , fassa.

Sending Some Data To PHP...
I need some tips on how to send out some data to a PHP file. I have a project set up already where you vote for some options and that sends, but now I need to add some input text fields for people to enter some personal information. What I have right now are two fields with the vars of "name" & "email"

And here's the code that is sending out the information to the PHP file:


Code:
submit.onRelease = function():Void

{
sendVars();
_root.gotoAndStop(2);
}

myLv.onLoad = function():Void
{
trace("data sent");
}
function sendVars():Void
{
var len:Number = resultArray.length;
for (i=1;i<len;i++)
{
myLv["var"+i]=resultArray[i];
}
myLv.sendAndLoad("myphp.php",myLv,"POST");
}
I've tried a couple of different ways but so far all of them failed, they included creating another function like the "sendVars" function to send with the submit button and I also tried placing some code into the "sendVars" function relating to the "name" & "email" vars.

If anyone could provide some help on how to do this I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much!

Sending Data To A Var
Hi i have a question.
I made a flash file were people can fill in there name and then press enter and lateron there name will be visable in a other textfield with in the clip.
Now i made the following script in frame 1:


Code:
enter_btn.onPress = function() {
if (input != undefined && input != "" && input != "fill in please"){
email = input;
gotoAndPlay(2);
} else {
input = "fill in please";
}
}
this works great, 'input' will bring the filled in name too the textfield with the var called 'email'.

Now i moved the 'email' var within a different movieclip with a instance name of form.
When i fill in the name in the beginning the 'input' var and 'email' var are not communication nomore. How can i make sure 'input' will give the data to the 'email' within the other movieclip ?

Can someone help me please ?

Sending Data
Hi
I have created a questionnaire regarding my website and have used the following code to send the information:

myForm = this;
submitButtonListener = new Object();
submitButtonListener.click = function() {
    var email = "GISFeedback@hotmail.com";
    var subject = escape("Questionnaire Feedback");

// The following code is an example of how the radio buttons are set up
var selectedRadioButton = Quality.selection;
    var radioLabel = selectedRadioButton.label;

//The user can also add comments at the end of the questionnaire  
var comments = Input.text
    Input.text = ""  

var body = ("Q1:"+radioLabel+Comments"+comments);
    getURL("mailto:"+email+"?subject="+subject+"&body="+body);
};
submitButton.addEventListener("click", submitButtonListener);

The problem occurs when the user selects the submit button.  On some computers the user is taken to their default email programme, such as Hotmail.  In other cases Outlook automatically loads up.  In both cases an email is created and the information from the questionnaire is displayed.  The user then has to press send to submit the data.  However, on some computers Outlook does not load up and the user is not taken to their default email programme.  Therefore not being able to send the information.  Preferably, I would like the user just to select the button and the data is sent without them having to go into any email programme…is this possible? I have read a few of the responses from previous inquires of sending data in flash and have seen information on Cold Fusion forms and asp forms but not understanding if I need them for this task?

Thank you for your time and help
Rich

SENDING DATA
Hello all,


I have been wrecking my brain trying to send form data or variables from Flash using 3.0 as.

AS3 in my opinion seems a little confusing.

Can someone PLEASE help me. I cannot not write to the database or send emails

Please see my code below.

import flash.net.*;
import fl.controls.*;
import flash.display.*;


submit_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
checkForm();
}

fname_ti.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, formListener);
email_ti.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, formListener);
mess_ti.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, formListener);

function formListener(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.ENTER) {
checkForm();
}
}

fname_ti.setFocus();


function checkForm():Boolean {
// ensure that the username_ti field isn't blank.
if (fname_ti.text.length == 0) {
// if the username_ti field is empty, display an error message in the status_lbl Label instance.
status_lbl.htmlText = "<font color="#EFDFDC">Please enter your name.</font>";
// set the form focus to the username_ti TextInput instance.
fname_ti.setFocus();
// exit the checkForm function.
return false;
}
// if the password_ti TextInput instance is blank,
// display an error message in the status_lbl Label instance and exit the checkForm function.
if (email_ti.text.length == 0) {
status_lbl.htmlText = "<font color="#EFDFDC">Please enter your email address.</font>";
email_ti.setFocus();
return false;
}

if (mess_ti.text.length == 0) {
status_lbl.htmlText = "<font color="#EFDFDC">Please enter password.</font>";
mess_ti.setFocus();
return false;
}
// clear the status_lbl Label instance
status_lbl.text = "";

//-----------------------------END OF FORM CHECKING------------------------//




var post_vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
post_vars.fulname = fname_ti.text;
post_vars.emailaddress = email_ti.text;
post_vars.yourmessage = mess_ti.text;


var postURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
postURLRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
postURLRequest.data = post_vars;
postURLRequest.url = "http://www.anutujewelry.com/contact.asp";


sendToURL(postURLRequest);


return true;
}

Sending Data To PHP.
Yes, I know this was posted about before, but I could not get things to work. I thought I had the code right, but I guess not. I know my PHP file works because I did it else where. So it appears that the vars are not sending.

Could someone take a look and tell me if they see anything wrong? I got the base code from a tutorial which I got to work just peachy, but when I tried to add extra vars it choked.

The FLA is attached(AS3). It would not let me upload the PHP as a PHP file or as plain text. If you want to see that let me know and I can post it here.

Thanks a bunch.

Sending Data In Querystring
Hi all,

I'm making a calendar with php/mysql backend - it loads data re events using the xml object and I've been trying to stick to one function that loads the xml and sends requests to insert/update/delete in the querystring too - this works for delete and null (just do a select query) but not insert or update:


Code:
function doXML(arg,queryString) {
if (!myXML) {
usersXML = new XML();
usersXML.onLoad = usersHandleLoad;
usersXML.load("security.php?action=users");
myXML = new XML();
myXML.onLoad = handleLoad;
SearchResults = new XML();
searchResults.onLoad = searchResultsHandleLoad;
}
if (objectHolder) _root.objectHolder.removeMovieClip();//remove clip containing data objects if there is one
_root.attachMovie("holder","objectHolder",topDepth);
topDepth++;
if (resultsHolder) resultsHolder.removeMovieClip();
_root.attachMovie("holder","resultsHolder",topDepth);
topDepth++;
setDateVars();
var theURL = "action.php?action="+arg+"&startMonth="+phpStartMonth+"&endMonth="+phpEndMonth+queryString;
var altURL = "loader.php?action="+arg+"&startMonth="+phpStartMonth+"&endMonth="+phpEndMonth+queryString;
arg == "search" ? searchResults.load(theURL) : myXML.load(theURL);
}
Seeing as this doesn't work I've tried other ways, like using loadVariables with the POST action to send the inser request and used xml only to receive events, but I can't make that work either. I know my php works though because if I send it in a getURL it works fine. (This needs to be in the background though).

Thx for reading this - any ideas??

JavaScript Sending Data To Swf?
hello all-
in developing a standard HTML page that contains a small flash banner type thing, the swf would load and begin playing before all the page graphics... therefore prompting my client to ask...
"Can that movie begin playing after the page is all loaded?"
so after trying a few things, here is the scenario that I was able to work out...
writing a javaScript function:
function passToFlash() {
window.document.startFlash.SetVariable("go", "1");
}

placing this in my HTML object tag:
ID="startFlash"

placing this in the EMBED tag:
name="go" swLiveonnect=true

then in my flash movie, frame 1 action is:
if(go==1){
gotoAndPlay(5);// start of movie
}

frame 2 ActionScript:
gotoAndPlay(1);

to initiate the javaScript function I have this in the HTML BODY tag:
onLoad()="passToFlash()"

this works perfectly on Windows IE, but nothing else.... anyone ever have any luck with this sort of thing... or have any other suggestions on how to go about achieving this.

any comment, thought or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance for the help.

Sending Position Data To ASP
Hi all, I have a movie with drag and drop icons, which can be placed anywhere, rotated etc.

My problem lies in that I can't find a way to track all the movieclips down which have ben dragged out, in order to send the position data out to an ASP script, which will add the data to a database.

I was using a loop to try and target all the movieclips (they are all named object10, object11, object12, etc)

I tried using the code below:

Code:
on (release) {
for (i = 10; i < objCount; i++) {
trace(object[i]._name);
}
}
but it returns "undefined" as the result. I also tried different combos but all I get is strings, numbers, and objects as a return. How in the world can I get Flash to target my movieclips? I'm so stumped.

If anyone can help, great!

I've attached my .swf file (Flash 8) so you can get a visual on my project.

Thanks.

Sending Data Remotely
Hi,

Without worrying about specifics (unless you want to give me specifics ), is it possible to have flash/ASP residing on a remote server (which I have no control over, other than uploading the site, and has not database functionality) to send variable data to another, separate server (PHP perhaps, perhaps not) for inclusion in a database? (sendAndLoad??, .send??)

Thanks!

[F8] Sending Data & Servers
2 Questions:

1. Is there a way for flash to send data to a server, like an MC position when an action is done?

2. is there a way for the server to send data back. Or at least like a getData option then you enter the server name or something?

I would really like to know. I think #1 is possible but im not sure about #2...

thanks

Sending POST Data
I've been picking up AS3 but one of the things that I just can't seem to figure out is how to SEND and LOAD data from a .php file. So far I've been able to load data but I can't give it any parameters. I have written an example of AS2 code, can someone please convert it to AS3 so I can finally see exactly how to do this?
Example:

Code:
var server:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
server.passcode = "ABCDEFG";
server.user = "Person";
server.onLoad = function(){
if (this.loaded == true){
trace(this.returnedData1 + " " + this.returnedData2);
}
}
server.sendAndLoad("http://www.mysite.com/coolpage.php", server, "POST");
Thank you!

Sending Data From Flash
I have an swf which pulls in a URL string of information gets 2 numbers (a current amount and the previous amount) and counts from the lowest to the highest. When it reaches the higher amount it swiches to 2 different numbers and repeats the process. The swf is also clickable and the link it sends you to changes with each set of numbers it is cycling between. Still with me?

Ok what i need to do now is for flash to make a note of when the swf is clicked and which url it is linking to. i am a total novice when it comes to flash and server side scripting so can anyone help me or give a link to somewhere that can?

Sending Data Out Of Flash

XML Socket Not Sending Data
I am using flash 8 pro.

I have a little app that sends xml via an xml socket. It works fine on my desktop where I am running a small webserver and a socket server. However, when I change the socket address to the WAN ip and run the swf from outside it will not send data to the socket. It says it connects to the socket, yet there is no data seen on the socket, so the swf is not sending the data to the socket. From the outside I can telnet into the socket so I know its open and working from the outside.

In the fla file I have the socket open using the ip address like this:

Code:
mySocket.connect("xx.xx.xx.xx", 9999);
Should I use the www.myUrl.com instead of the ip?

The swf is being served from the same address... Now, the port is forwarded to one machine while the webserver is forwarded to another machine..

What do I need to do for the swf to transfer data through the xml socket?

Sending Data To Flash
I have a list of time like this.

10am, 11am, 12pm

And I need to send that to a flash file how can I do that?

Also inside the flash I need some how loop the list and set the image to be displayed or not.

For example in the 10am spot I have a picture of a check box and if the user is available at 10am I will display a check in the 10am, if not hide the check box.

So I just need some help to send that list inside flash, and how can I make a loop in the list.

Sending Form Data
Hello. I'm hoping someone can assist. I think this is probably pretty simple, but I only know basic Actionscripting -- learning more as I go along. I have one input text field and a submit button. This is a small Flash form that I'm creating for a client to put on their website. I have this info from their developer to use for this form...

// Form action url
&form_action=http://webpage&
//
// Info Box Field Names////////////////
&request_text_field_name=request_text&
&p_user_id=2345&

I just need to know how to use this in the Flash file to get the info to send. If this is fairly simple, I would appreciate it if someone could tell me how to do this, or point me towards a tutorial or something. Or just let me know that it's a bit complicated and I'll get someone else to do it for me! Thanks in advance!

New To Sending Data In Flash
Hello!

I will be creating a program to use for data entry. I'll be studying zebras in kenya and I won't have the internet there as I'm recording the data. I'd like to be able to send the data I generate in flash to an external text file.

I understand I need some sort of script to do that, but is this something I can run just on my machine? And what kind of script would I need? (I'll probably make the data into xml format)

Thank you for any help!
Heather
