Reading a TXT file from a Flash Movie

Using "LoadVariables" to establish a connection between the
running Flash program and a text file in the same folder works just
as expected with no problems. I am on a Windows machine and using
the recipe from the fabulous help system.
The problem - yes there IS a problem - arises when the text
file contains special Danish characters.
The odd part here is, that everything works fine from inside
Falsh using "Test Movie", but not when publishing the movie and
launching from inside a browser (both IE and Firefox).
The help system says, that data should be URL-encoded. Trying
that (characters %e6, %f8 and %e5) does not fix anything. The input
is read, but the offending character is gobbled up along with the
two next characters, or the program simply hangs.
Any suggestions?[

No i didn't do that in my first series of tries. Following
your suggestion I did that (embedding Latin I, that should contain
all the necessary characters), but it didn't do the trick. Actually
it prevented my writing to a dynamic text field intended to
interact with the user.
Using English cahracters only it worked fine (with invisible
text ;-) ).
Using Danish characters I got the same result: Not working
properly.
Using the Danish characters from inside Flash to fill in text
fields (static, dynamic and input) normally works fine, so I am
puzzled - still

  • Help reading a .txt file from the hard drive....

    Hi guys,
    Ok... I need to know how to read a .txt file from the hard drive... I have an example on how to read from a disk, but I don't have a disk drive. I could be confusing terminology, but I don't think I am. Here is the code I have for reading from a disk.. please let me know how I should change it to read from a hard drive.
    Also, when the error pops up, it says that it can't read another .txt file that is not specified in the code... any ideas how that is occuring? Please advise.
    import java.io.*;
    public class TEST {

    confusing terminology, but I don't think I am. Here
    is the code I have for reading from a disk.. please
    let me know how I should change it to read from a

    Also, when the error pops up, it says that it can't
    read another .txt file that is not specified in the
    code... any ideas how that is occuring? Please
    advise.Probably becuase the class file (compiled version of the source code) is a different version to the source code, i.e. the source code hasn't been recompiled since the source code was changed.
    How does this relate to EJBs?

  • Read a txt file from MIDlet

    dear sir,
    I am working on a midlet which should read position information (privided by TOMTOM GPS) from a TXT file and send it to a server.
    In Toolkit everything works fine, but when I transfered the midlet on a ipaq pocket pc running windows and using IBM j9 jvm I got problems.
    I can not read any file which is not in the package of the MIDlet
    here is the code:
    //read position from textfile
    try {
    Class c = this.getClass();
    InputStream is = c.getResourceAsStream("iamhere.txt");
    StringBuffer str = new StringBuffer();
    byte b[] = new byte[1];
    while ( is.read(b) != -1 ) {
    str.append(new String(b));
    is.close();
    position = str.toString();
    catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    position = new String("Sorry: I can not read position of your friend!");
    can it be that this operation is generally not allowed or that the path is not correct (i tryed also file:///java/iamhere.txt)
    thanks for any help

    What do you mean by that? Are you trying to display that amount of text and you get an error. Are you trying to read from the server and you get there an error?
    > also is there any way to store the content in mobile phone.
    Using RMS. But be aware of the size limit specific to every phone.

  • "Bad data format" when reading txt file from the presentation server

    Hello,
    I have a piece of code which reads a txt file from the presentation server to an internal table like below:
    DATA : lv_filename type string.
    lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\
    CALL method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_UPLOAD
    EXPORTING
       FILENAME              = lv_filename
    CHANGING
       DATA_TAB            = lt_tsd. " lt_tab has the exact same fields as the Test.txt's. Test.txt has only one line, tab delimited.
    When running this code, exception BAD_DATA_FORMAT is issued.
    Is it because of the file encoding or delimiter or other reason?
    Thanks,
    Yang

    Hello,
    If its tab delimited then use the has_field_seperator parameter and check
    DATA : lv_filename type string.
    lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\

  • Issues loading .txt files from server...

    Hi.
    I have an issue with a script I created that loads text strings from a file on my server.
    The swf file loads a message from a .txt file, displays it in an animation when the animation finishes it loops back to the start and loads the next message and displays it in the animation.
    All works fine. However the script reads the text file from the server on every loop ( 3 seconds ) This will be hard on my server so... Is there a way to read the text file once only and then loop through the eight statements?
    Thanks. Z
    Actionscript 2. Flash CS3. Flash Player 10.
    quotes.txt - text file containing eight quotes
    quote_txt - Dynamic field within animation
    ranQuote = new LoadVars();
    ranQuote.onLoad = function(success) {
        if (success) {
            RanNum = RanNum+1;
            if (RanNum>=9) {
                RanNum = 1;
                ran = this["quote"+(RanNum)];
                quote_txt.text = ran;
            } else {
                ran = this["quote"+RanNum];
                quote_txt.text = ran;
        } else {
            quote_txt.text = "Display if can't load txt file";
    ranQuote.load("quotes.txt");

    Unless I'm missing something, each time you load the file you are loading the entire file.  So you should have all of what's in it stored.  Your load function appears to just be picking out one of them out randomly after they're all loaded.
    I assumed wrongly that this isn't all the code you have and other loading code is what you are trying to inhibit.
    What you probably want to do is take most of your onLoad code and place it into a function.  What you have that is pulling up the quotes should utilize that function.  You shouldn't be using that loading code each time some button or whatever loop cycles.

  • Convert Quicktime (.mov) file to a Flash movie?

    I have Flash CS3 that came with Adobe Creative Suite. I Never
    used it but can it convert a Quicktime (.mov) file to a Flash movie
    so I can play it on the web? If so where do I start? I also want
    the viewer to be able to stop and start the Flash movie. I guess I
    need a skin or something?
    Also I'm confused about the difference between a FLV and SWF
    file. Which one do I need for the web?
    Thanks,

    > Is it possible to convert a quicktime movie .mov to a

    not really - you can export the MOV to an FLV and run that
    through the flash player at runtime. You
    can also import the MOV into flash doc. depends.
    >
    > Is it possible to import a .mov so that you see the

    Flash is not a video editor - i would get yourself quicktime
    Pro ($30 US) and open your MOV and
    export as an Image Sequence - then from flash import the
    first image into it - flash will detect the
    numerically named files and prompt you to import them all -
    they will end up as individual images in
    keyframes on the timeline.
    But sounds to me like you are trying to use flash to edit
    video - not recommended as flash was never
    intended to be used this way.

  • How do I import music files from a flash drive to my iTunes library on my laptop

    How can I import music files from a flash drive to my iTunes library? I put the flash drive into my laptop, selected " add file to library", selected the songs I wanted from the flash drive, and it looked like they were added as the names show under " recently added". Then I removed the flash drive from my laptop But when I select one of the songs and try to play it a message saying "the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  So it seems the actual files did not transfer. What do I do? I have done this. With a cd in the past with nsomproble,.

    Suncadia wrote:
    Thank you!! This worked. It does seem there should be an easier way but this did work.
    Dragging the files to "Automatically Add..." is pretty easy once you know where to look.  Just make sure iTunes is running when you do it; otherwise the files will just sit there until the next time you open iTunes.
    (Interestingly, the way you originally tried to do would have worked fine except for one little detail:  you have to first go into Edit > Preferences > Advanced, and check the box for "Copy files..."  If that is not done, iTunes will reference the files on the flash drive, which of course are not accessible once the drive is removed, as you saw.)
    Anyway, glad that all is now sorted.  Enjoy the music!

    I am having problems trying to read a text file from a URL.

    but it returns an error saying:

    at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method) .....etc etc.
    Is this just a problem due to my network or is there something wrong with my code ????

    Altho you can access the file by typing the URL in a browser, geocities being a free web-hosting service don't like you to access the materials without seeing their ads. You have to find a way to trick it into thinking that you are indeed coming in from a web browser even tho you aren't.

    Dude, netiquette. Messages like "i need this now! Do it!" are really offensive and no one here is being payed to answer anyone's questions. We're here because we like to contribute to the community.
    Anyway, in your case, just perform some search on how you could filter the files that are attached to the message. The sample module is just an example, you'll have to implement your own. Tips would be to query the filename of the attachments (or maybe content type) and for the ones which are not text, remove them.
