Flash and FTP integration

Morning fellow developers,
I'm working on a new site and we were going to dev an ind.
FTP program, but after some more consideration, we came across the
cross-browser and OS compatibility. We want to be able to upload
over 100+ files (if needed) to a server along with desc + keywords.
I see that Flash 8 has the neccessary tools to handle file
uploading, but my question is, can we have it act as a Stand alone
FTP program so that we can utilize the fastest user upload, or will
we be confined to the settings in the server INI settings.. IE
MAX_UPLOAD_TIME, MAX_FILESIZE, etc...
If possible we want to avoid using the HTTP upload as it is
noticeably slower. So if we can use flash to utilize user BW to
upload, then that would be ideal.
Any foresight is of course appreciated it. Just doing some
research right now.
Thanks for taking the time to read.

I believe the security limits of Flash for file upload are
the same as html. A script cannot specify a file on the user's
machine unless the user has selected the file through a form or
Flash FileReference class.

Flash and browser integration

hi,
i am trying to find out if there is a way to control the
window which holds the flash movie through flash, for instance,
make it scroll up or down, or somehow control the flash movie to
react the windows position... i have seen it somewhere in an advert
where oranges are being squashed when the flash banner is scrolled
up the window... i wish i had the link to give you an example..
anyway, any help will be apreciated.
thanks.

you can use javascript to control the browser window and you
can use the externalinterface class to communicate between flash
and javascript.

Flash and TAPI integration

is it possible to integrate flash with TAPI if so what would
i need.
The Telephony Application Programming Interface (TAPI) is a
Microsoft Windows API, which provides computer telephony
integration and enables PCs running Microsoft Windows to use
telephone services

Flash and C++ Integration

I was wondering if there is any way to use Flash as a menu
front end through integrateing it with a Game Engine.
The Specific engine we are using is Irrlicht (
http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/)
which is writen in primarily C++.
Any help would be appreciated.
~Knale

flash communicates with other server technologies by
importing variables (and sending them). If you can get C++ to
output a file that looks like this....
&Variable1=Value&Variable2=Value2&Variable3....
(etc)
Thats if you're not concerned with direct/constant
communication. If you're interested in that, I'd look into either a
socket server, or a flash communication server. (both of these I
know too little about to be of help).

Cfform (flash) and javascript integration

I've been searching and shooting in the dark for 2 days and
can't get this to work...
I need to have my flash form button execute a javascript,
return the value to the form and then I need the form to submit and
take advantage of cfform's validation.
So far, I get the javascript to change the value of the form
field without submitting the form, but when I add the submit line,
the form submits before the javascript returns the changes.
Here is my sample:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function changeSomething(x,z1,z2)
var z3 = "window.document."+z1+ ".SetVariable";
if (x != "ABCDEFG")
eval(z3+"(z2+'.text', 'INVALID Name')");
</script>
<cfsaveContent variable="prevalidateIt">
getURL("javascript:changeSomethig('"+name.text+"','Step1','name')");
submitForm();
</cfsavecontent>
<cfform method="post" name="Step1" preloader="no"
format="flash" width="960">
<cfformgroup type="panel" label="Step 1" visible="yes"
enabled="yes">
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfformgroup type="hbox" width="200" visible="yes"
enabled="yes">
<cfinput type="text" name="name" size="12" maxlength="11"
width="12" label="name" validateat="onSubmit" validate="maxlength"
required="yes" />
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfinput type="button" name="Submit" value="Submit"
onclick="#prevalidateIt#" />
</cfformgroup>
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfinput name="Reset" type="reset" id="Reset"
value="Reset" />
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>
My javascript is of course way more complicated than this one
and goes through several steps of validation of the form field. It
will ultimately be used on multiple fields in the form.
Has anybody else tried to do something similar.
Thanks!

I ran your code. It appears to work as expected. The only
major change is that I corrected the typo
javascript:changeSomethi
ng.
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeSomething(x,z1,z2)
var z3 = "window.document."+z1+ ".SetVariable";
if (x != "ABCDEFG")
eval(z3+"(z2+'.text', 'INVALID Name')");
</script>
<cfsaveContent variable="prevalidateIt">
getURL("javascript:changeSomething('"+name.text+"','Step1','name')");
submitForm();
</cfsavecontent>
<cfform method="post" action="#cgi.script_name#"
name="Step1" preloader="no" format="flash" width="960">
<cfformgroup type="panel" label="Step 1" visible="yes"
enabled="yes">
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfformgroup type="hbox" width="200" visible="yes"
enabled="yes">
<cfinput type="text" name="name" size="12" maxlength="11"
width="12" label="name" validateat="onSubmit" validate="maxlength"
required="yes" />
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfinput type="button" name="Submit" value="Submit"
onclick="#prevalidateIt#" />
</cfformgroup>
<cfformgroup type="hbox" visible="yes" enabled="yes">
<cfinput name="Reset" type="reset" id="Reset"
value="Reset" />
</cfformgroup>

Flex or Flash and SAP integration

Hello All,
     I am in a requirement in which i need to connect to SAP server and fetch data from it and display back in Flex builder. I am a bit familiar with Flash Island intro but not much. So my question is what are the possible way we can fetch data from SAP and display the same in Flex builder like generally we fetch data in XML format and display the same. i know a bit about iframe but have zero knowledge bout how to use.
   So do you know if there is a better format of data we can fetch data and display the same in flex builder or flash island.
   What are the possible format we can fetch data from SAP and process data in flex builder.
Cheers
Mani

1. Flex can read only XML.
Do you mean we need to fetch data from SAP in XML format and we are ready to go with Flex builder or Flash Island. does it mean there is no any other format in which we can fetch data from SAP and process same in Flex builder.
3. Create Web service of the same ejb and deploy the same on WEB Application Server.
I dont know how to proceed with this way do you mean to write some code in EJV to fetch data from SAP using BAPIs or RFC and where to save data.
it will be very helpfull if you can provide some practical example.
thanks a lot
Mani

Flash and SCORM

Dear Sirs,
I have a general query about SCORM and FLASH. If anyone can
help me here then I would really appreciate it. An upcoming project
at our organisation is a proposed full suite of e-learning modules,
developed in Flash and then integrated into an LMS.
At present, this project is at the discussion phase as a
couple of our developers have proposed this in the past. But what
exactly do we mean by having a SCORM complaint e-learning module on
a Learning management system?
Does this mean that we would have a series of Flash movies
embedded in HTML files that contain interactive quizzes built with
actionscript and that when used by someone online, communicate the
results of these quizzes to the LMS on the server so that we can
see how many people have done the quizzes or does this just mean
that the LMS would just track how many people have actually gone
through the e-learning modules just to have a look?
What are the full implications/advantages of using flash
SCORM compliant movies on an LMS? Do the flash movies have to be
developed, exported in a particular way.
I am assuming that this LMS consists of a software
application on a server that can be managed by an administrator
online?
I am sorry for all these questions but at our company we had
a series of meeting about a proposed e-learning system and I
remembered that we had a couple of flash developers who used to
work for use a while back and one of them mentioned using flash
with SCORM but like I said the discussions about this matter are at
the embryonic stage.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards
Keith
[email protected]

I'm sorry that I do not have an answer to your issue, but I
am interested on how you have created the wrapper. I am trying to
figure out how to load my captivate movies onto my SCORM 1.2
compliant LMS and I am a bit stumped. Can you share what you did?
Thanks, Fbudd

Advice on integrating Flash and HTML

I have googled and researched this topic on the web.
Integrating Flash and HTML seems like a popular topic but much of
the information is dated (using FS commands or solutions based on
2000-2004 coding and/or hacks) I am using Flash CS3 and Dreamweaver
CS3. I can use Actionscript 2 or Actionscript 3. Here is my goal
I want to use a Flash navigation in the top third of my page
and have it control and load new HTML pages in the bottom two
thirds of the page. Some of these html pages use SPRY code but most
are simple HTML pages. I prefer Flash over CSS because I have more
control and predictability. What I have found so far is three
different solutions.
1.HTML Framesets. This seems like a really good idea but I
thought using framesets was a fading technique and should be
avoided. Is this true?
2. Using the ExternalInterface class to communicate between
Javascript and Actionscript. This also seemed like a good idea but
it is not clear to me how to implement. Do I combine this with
innerHTML or some type of AJAX technique.
3. Keep everything in Flash and load different swfs into main
Flash page. I like this idea the best and it would work for most
pages but I still like html pages when there is alot of text or I
want to use SPRY techniques.
When I have posted elsewhere I get references to articles
telling me why Flash is bad or framesets are bad or innerHTML is
not standard HTML. The only thing I am sure about is that most
people are pretty passionate about defending their own way of doing
things. I am hoping someone can provide some solid information
about what is possible and how to implement a solution.

It works when you put it online... :)1

Brief discussion on SAP XI and its' Integration with SAP MDM.

Hi,
I have never worked on SAP XI.
I am discussing it on brief, please give your valuable replies.
SAP XI consists of System Landascape Directory(SLD).
SLD Consists of Business System and Techinical System.
Technical System contains all information about the software
component. The Business System consists of Inbound and Outbound Business
System which are used as logical names for data transfer.
There is communication Channel for Receiver and Sender Business System and n agreement
is signed between Sender and Receiver.
Outbound Interface defined for Business System Outbound and Techical System associated
with the Business System,
Inbound Interface defined for Business System Inbound and Techical System associated
with the Business System.
In SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Directory, we have defined the Integration Scenarios,
Actions, Interface Objects, Mapping Objects, Adapters Objects.
Mapping Object defines the Structure and Value Mapping.
Adapter Objects defines the Adapter program which implements RFC Adapter, FTP Adapter logic.
FTP Adapter is used for XI-MDM Communication.
RFC Adapter is used for XI-ECC Communication.
Integration Repository: Both Outbound and Inbound Interfaces are Mapped with Value mapping and
Structure Mapping inside Integration Repository.
The File Adapter takes the File from the Outbound port of MDM System
and sends it as IDOC to Receiver Business System.
Value Mapping must be done between Sender and Receiver interfaces.
Value Mapping is done by XSLT or Java based program.
SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Server at runtime:
Message Split, Interface Determination, Receiver Identifaction, Mapping, Techincal Routing
and Call Adapter Proccess are done.
In SAP XI 3.0 and MDM 5.5:
Step 1: Create busines system as service.
Step 2: Create communication channel for each business service. If the system can communicate
through different channels, then create all possible channel types if necessary.
Step 3: Create receiver agreement between the systems.
Step 4: Interface determination:
- Here you see for the first time the software component mentioned;
there are some special requirements regarding this software component in relation to the customizing ID mapping.
- To modify this software component, the customer needs to copy the SAP standard delivered software component
into its own namespace. The customer is able to modify to create archives
for the customized ID mapping.
Receiver determination.
Configure an FTP Server on the MDS.
Create a send folder for outbound messages using outbound port(s) for
remote systems(s).
Create receive folder inbound messages using inbound port(s) for remote systems.
This ia all about concept of SAP XI Infractsture and its' Integration with SAP MDM 5.5.

Kaushik Banerjee

Hi Kaushik,
You must be aware of File types that MDM Import Manager can Import i.e. we have XML, Excel etc. Now there are two transactions to extract data from R3
1. MDMGX -
         - For lookup table extraction
         - Output in XML format which MDM can import without using XI.
          - FTP can be configured to put the file in the desired folder which will be then picked by Import Server.
2. MDM_CLNT_EXTR -
          - For Main table records.
          - Output is in Idoc format which MDM doesn't understand hence we need XI in between which converts Idoc file received from R3 into XML which can then be imported using Import Manager or Import Server. For this we need to implement XI Scenario that consists of Source System, Receiver System, Type of Data etc.
Just a basic understanding...

Jitesh Talreja

Illustrator and Photoshop integration

Can anyone tell me if Flash works with integration of older
versions of Photoshop and Illustrator. I've read about new
integration tools and wonder if the new tools only work with CS3
versions of other Adobe software.
Thanks!

Illustrator's true integration is that it allows for making
symbols, just like you would in flash. This is illustrator-centric,
so you'd lose that. You can still import .ai files though.
Photoshop's integration is nice with the layers, but
honestly, you could do all this before with .psd -> quicktime.
.png's behave better.
No idea about after effects 7.

I use a Flexislider for my website [url removed] I want to use flash and make my website attractive. Any suggestions?

Will people be able to login to the FTP server from my website and do everything through their browser?
Users could use web based ftp client or a 3rd party ftp client.
Have look at the sytem the following school uses.
http://www.glenbard.net/Glenbard_DistrictHQ/Media/MOVs/Web-BasedFTPClient.html
Although I have not setup this type of thing up myself googling around shows a few tutorials using PHP or Java based ftp clients.
have a look at this article..

Dreamweaver CS3 (9) maxed CPU slow performance and FTP issues.

Dreamweaver CS3 (9) maxed CPU slow performance and FTP
issues.
Never mind...I found it.
Of course I have all the firewall, worm, scanning, phishing
filtering, full time protect, and everything else turned off when I
am working on a remote/testing site however I found the Symantec
antivirus email scan being enabled (doesn't it just interact with
my email program?) was getting in the way of DW9 ftp operations,
causing some lagging that was putting DW9 into an unstable mode
during and immediately after (10 seconds) ftp operations.
The CPU still spikes to 99% during ftp functions but DW9
works even though it's likely taxed to the max but when I turn off
email scan DW9 returned to a functioning state during ftp and
remote file view. Whatever it takes huh?
PS: email scanning only never effected DW8.02
My System Info: properly configured (as in: everything works
or I fix it) Toshiba - XP pro SP2 – Pentium 4 - 2.3GHz
– 1.5 GB ram – Intel extreme graphics card 64 MB ram
– Apache 2.2 server – PHP 5 – MySQL 5 -
phpMyAdmin – Dreamweaver 8.02 – Interakt Kollection
3.7.1 – Dreamwweaver 9 - DeVtoolbox – Flash –
GoLive - Photoshop - ImageReady – Illustrator – Acrobat
– CuteFTP – Putty SSH - blabla...)

Thanks for the response. I managed to Google the 'nobody' account and found the explanation.
As you say, I assumed the 'syslogd' process had to do with system logs. I did check the console and couldn't find anything of particular interest in the logs.
I'll continue to monitor but if anyone has any further suggestions please post.
One thing that might also have an impact... my available drive space is now down to less than 5gb (runs anywhere between 1gb and 5gb free depending on what I'm running). I know this causes problems for Parallels as it keeps moaning at me, but would it cause any problems with OSX?
Thanks again,
Tom

Flash and Web 2.0; discuss...

I"ve been designing in Flash since version 2, and taught it
for six years. I've been out of the loop for a little while now in
as far as trends, but still developing flash sites, and forwarding
my AS and general flash knowledge:
www.tastemediagroup.com.au
www.starrweddings.com
By example.
I've recently been chatting with a friend who has moved over
to developing purely in CSS. Like completely back to hard coding.
His sites are versatile and much more searchable and indeed seem
more useful. I like to put my content into live loading folders but
this effectively hides the words and pics from the search engines.
I'm finding no one is visiting my sites. I can't help thinking the
lack of searchability is an issue.
Can we talk about how flash might be integrated with this
wave of design and perhaps if flash is to be relegated back to
'frilly bits' on predominantly coded sites.

If your talking about using CSS in Flash, it was available in
the previous
version.

{E2883E8F-472F-4FB0-9522-AC9BF37916A7} damaged file, how can I get good working flash and shockwave?

Hi, I have been researching these forums for too long! I cannot find an answer that resolves my problem. I too had the damaged file and 3 empty java files. I deleted them. I searched for the gp.ocx and gp.inf. I did not find the ocx but found an agp file. I deleted it but it did not delete the damaged file, thus my justification for deleting it.
I have IE8, Windows XP SP3, and have had trouble playing certain games for months. I get so frustrated each time I undertake trying to resolve the problem that it never gets done. I used to have Shockwave and somewhere it was lost. I tried unsuccessfully to install it several times until I finally removed all but the adobe reader and downloaded the flash and shockwave again. This time the shockwave took but it still is not working. Initially the problem with shockwave seemed to be the SwDir.dll, and SWDNLD files.
Also the DLM kept coming up saying click to download. I did only to have it disappear after closing it.
I hope this is sufficient information to give me guidance. Also, Ken said that he went directly to the adobe ftp to download his files directly. Where are those? I am losing money everyday that I cannot get this to operate/function properly.
Thank you so much in advance for any help any one can give me.

Hi. Here is a link for downloading shockwave player directly from Adobe.

(Have downloaded it quickly and simply for Imac - don't have it working yet though)
