SendAndLoad problem

So it's work when i strat it from Flash as "CRL + ENTER" but
when i start it from html from my appache it won't to work .I need
help

I only use $_REQUEST for PHP.
>the PHP does NOT execute successfully and I do not
receive an email.
What does "NOT execute successfully" mean? Do you have an
error message?
Does the PHP script work from a normal HTML form running from
the server?
Is the server script in the same domain as the Flash movie?
Flash really only sends data to a server script, so the
problem appears to
be more connecting to the script, the script, the data send
to the script
and such.

I'm having the same issues doing my tell a friend script. I
have a PHP
posted
on my server. The PHP uses $_RECEIVER to process the
variables sent by
Flash.
Here's the results of my tests:
1. If I pass the variables to the PHP file in the URL, the
PHP executes
successfully and I receive an email.
2. If I pass the variables to the PHP file using the Flash
file while
testing
locally (CTRL+ENTER), the PHP executes successfully and I
receive an email.
3. If I pass the variables to the PHP file using the Flash
file posted on
the
server, the PHP does NOT execute successfully and I do not
receive an email.
I've never heard of this kind of thing happening before.
Anyone have any
ideas?

AS2 SendAndLoad Problem

Hello, I have a question about the ActionScript 2.0 SendAndLoad
This is my AS2 code:
var send_lv: LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
var load_lv: LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
send_lv.mydata = '{"name": "guest"}'; // ( JSON data)
send_lv.sendAndLoad ("anyURL", load_lv);
However, when I send, "mydata" would be encoded as: "mydata =%7B%22name%22%3A%22guest%22%7D"
How can I keep "mydata" remain {"name": "guest"}?
Note: This problem doesn't happen in ActionScript 3.0
Thank you very much

Thank you very much
But this doesn't work
send_lv.mydata={name:"guest"} → [object Object](mydata=%5Bobject%20Object%5D)

XML sendAndLoad problem

I have a simple sendAndLoad XML request that works perfectly
on 95% of the computers I have used. I have check crosssite stuff
and everything i can think of. Its not browser specific ,os
specific, or flash version specific. On these computers I can run
the same flash file on a standalone player and everything works
flawlessly but inside of any browser it makes the request for the
XML file and stops right there. After a while like 10 minutes flash
gets tired of waiting and returns not found. I can navigate to the
xml file via the same browser. Upgrading Flash doesn't help. The
only thing consistent is it only happens to windows computers. The
requested URL is the complete URL. I have changed this and still
the same. IE or Firefox still the same. Version 9 player in both. I
have montiored network traffic and see the request made and maybe a
response but flash has moved.
Any Help would be appreciated.

ANSWER: I figured it out myself. I am just replying to let
everybody else know how I fixed it. I had the full URL in the load
request and apparently some Flash players don't like this. I put a
link to the file without the domain name and everybody is working
fine. The load function, Flash, or something could not resolve the
domian correctly and could not find the XML file. I was not getting
a request for the file from the Flash movie so I knew it had to be
soemthing in Flash.

SendAndLoad fails in mac .app version - possible security setting problem?

Hi all,
I'm having trouble with sendAndLoad working on the .app version of a flash application I made. So far it's only happening on one computer, so it appears to be some sort of security setting. Here's what's going on:
I've built a flash application (Flash 9, AS2) that has three versions: an online version, a standalone .exe version for PC, and a standalone .app version for mac. The user must log in to use the application. Online, this is handled by the portal hosting the flash. In the standalone versions, the user must login through the flash application. Through sendAndLoad, it accesses the same database of user info as the online version. The user just enters username/password, clicks "Submit," and if it finds the combination in the database, it lets the user in. If not, it gives them a message saying they entered the wrong username/password.
This has tested fine across macs and pcs, but sadly one macbook can't use the .app version. It launches, they put in valid username/password, hit submit and it freezes. All I can tell is that it gets the httpStatus number 0. As you can see below, I've got it set up to spit out an error message if it fails to load (login_lv.onLoad = function(success)), but it doesn't even do that.
I've put a crossdomain.xml file at the root level of the domain that's set to allow access from any domain.
This computer can log in successfully to the online version of the course, but the .app version seems to be hampered by some sort of security setting. The problem computer's settings match the settings of a mac I've tested successfully. It has up-to-date Flash 10 and is running Leopard. Here are security settings:
System Preferences>Security
 General
 Everything is unchecked
 FileVault
 Turned off
 Firewall
 "Allow all incoming connections" is selected
I'd appreciate any ideas anyone has. I'm far from wise about the ins-and-outs of mac security, so I may be missing something. I'm happy to clarify anything.
Code is below. It loads login_lv first, then bookmark_lv. It never gets far enough to load bookmark_lv. The severAppUrl is set to a placeholder for confidentiality's sake. The path is defintely right. It works on other computers.

SendandLoad and ASP problem

Hi,
Can anyone help with the following please? -
I am using sendandLoad from Flash and pass information via an
asp script, however I cant seem to get it to work properly.
I trace what's passed back in Flash to see the result.
I just need to know why the following syntax doesn't work -
Response.Write("&r_cnt=" & rvar & "&")
rvar is just a variable value I want to pass back. When I run
this in Flash it says the value of r_cnt is "
If I type -
Response.Write("&r_cnt=0&") and run it through, the
value of r_cnt is traced as 0 correctly.
I can't see why the concatenation using rvar doesn't work.
Any help appreciated.

wouldnt it be
Response.Write("r_cnt=" & rvar)

Problem with sendAndLoad

Hello Flash World
This is my first posting.I tried my level best to sort this
issue myself but in vain.Here is my code....
Please help me as I am struggling with this.I tried with send
and it works fine but I want to use sendAndLoad as I want a
confirmation and display a Thank u msg ven the vars have been
received by the PHP.
Awaiting help
Franc

>>Does the PHP need to send something back to the swf ?
Yes. I usually send an error code back - something like:
echo("&ok=1");
Then in your onLoad you can do:
recv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){
if (success){
trace(this["ok"]);

Problem with contact form

Hi-
I found a contact form for my Flash website but it's not working properly. It uses ActionScript 3 and PHP, both of which I don't know much about. Because of this, I can't pinpoint the problem or how to fix it. Here's what's going on:
1) Each field in the form only allows 3 characters and no special characters such as @ _ ! . , etc...
2) When the user goes to the next field in the form, the previous field appears blank but the when clicking on that again, the original text appears.
3) When submitting the form, it just keeps saying "in progress" and never shows the confirmation text nor does the email get sent. There is an HTML file included with this form but I am not sure if I need to put that in as I have embedded this form into an SWF file so I don't think I need that code but please let me know if I am wrong about this.
I am posting both the AS code and PHP code below.. if someone can help me figure this out I would greatly appreciate it. I am not sure which file the problem is in. If someone here doesn't know PHP then at least see the AS code and let me know if the problem is in that or not. That way I can pinpoint which file the problem is coming from and then seek further help if needed. To see the form in action, go here: http://www.poojasdesigns.com/ and click on "Contact Me".. here are the codes:

You say you don't know much about AS3, and that you have embedded this form into an swf. In what manner did you embed it, and what version of AS does the swf use? Have you tried using the form in the page that was provided as a standalone test to see if it works?

Question about the sendAndLoad of LoadVars

Hi all.
I have the following code:
function testSendLoadHttp()
loaderSendAndLoad.sendAndLoad("
http://localhost:9999/",
loaderSendAndLoad,"POST");
function loaderOnLoad(s)
if (s)
Result1.text = this.var2;
else
Result1.text = "Error";
stop ();
loaderSendAndLoad = new LoadVars();
loaderSendAndLoad.var1 = "FlashLite";
testSendLoadHttp();
loaderSendAndLoad.onLoad = loaderOnLoad;
sendLoadHttpsButton.onPress = function ()
testSendLoadHttp();
I'm receiving the var1 in my Symbian server, but i'm not
getting the var2 from the server. What can happen that can cause
the loaderOnLoad to go to the else clause? Because I know that the
server sends something, but it can be sending in the wrong time or
in the wrong way. In the server i'm sending like this:
iSendBuffer.Zero();
_LIT8(HEADER,"HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-type:
application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\nContent-length:
12var2=Symbian\r\n\r\n");
iSendBuffer.Format(HEADER);
iSocket.Write(iSendBuffer, iStatus);

Ok...Finally I solved my problem. Solutions:
1. Added Connection: close to the header, because the request
had it
2. I was sending through the wrong socket in the Symbian side
3. In my case it doesn't matter if the Content-type is
text/html or application/x-www-form-urlencoded...it worked with
both.
Thanks for your help.

Dynamic variables' naming from SendAndLoad

Hello,
Been chasing my tail for almost 2days now, I'm having
problems on how to load dynamically named variables and place it on
dynamically named movieclips. I'm loading variables from php/mysql
query thru sendAndLoad (no problem with that). The loaded variables
are names of swf files that i'm trying to load on dynamically
numbered movieclips. The problem is it just wont load. I've
searched the net for similar codes, but with no luck. I'm guessing
that my error is in getting the exact variable name to load.
Heylp...

No problems, you're welcome.
I think the eval should do the same thing as what I had. I
can't remember, I don't tend to use eval in flash - don't really
know why. I think loadMovie also accepts a string argument (which I
assume it 'evals') for a target in which case it may also work
without the eval and just with ,"_root.my_movieclip" + i; (didn't
try it so don't know for sure).
Good luck with it.

Using Flash's xml.sendAndLoad behind a proxy

We have a product that uses Directory and Flash to collect
data and then we send that data to a web server via a soap call. We
had been using an external perl script to do the soap call for many
years and are wanting to move the code in to Flash or Directory so
we can give the user better feed back about what is happening with
the soap call.
I created som flash scripts that use the XML object and the
sendAndLoad function to do the calls. The problem I am finding is
that if the client is behind a proxy the call fails. Is there a way
to fix this and correctly authenticate with the proxy server so
that the soap call goes through?

I don't know how you'd do this using a Flash object, but
Director's
built-in NetLingo xtra can handle SOAP requests as of version
10.1 and
this, in conjunction with the proxyServer() command, should
be all you
need - assuming you have access to proxy details.

Problem reading external HTML format from text file

I have a text file containing html formatted text which I try to get into a textfield.
All works fine locally and even on my localhost test server, but when uploading to the real server - I get a blank.
Anyone have any ideas? THANKS
The text file :
&t2=<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">Some text here</TEXTFORMAT><TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">One more line</TEXTFORMAT><TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">And more text here</TEXTFORMAT>
and the AS code in the movie:
viewData.onPress = function() {
//get text
loadText()
var tz
function loadText() {
var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
my_lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
//trace(this.toString())
mytext.htmlText= this.t2;
} else {
//trace("Error loading/parsing LoadVars.");
my_lv.load("myfile.txt");

Thanks kglad, I did it and it made me find the real problem:
The text file is generated by PHP script that gets an html formated text from flash (it is an online editing part of an application):
the AS code to call the php:
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
send_lv.t1 = "&t2="+editor.t1.htmlText+"&";
send_lv.sendAndLoad("write.php", res_lv, "POST");
the PHP:
<?php
$mydata = $_POST["t1"];
$myFile = "recipe.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fwrite($fh, $mydata);
fclose($fh);
print "&done=done";
?>
From some reason the online server adds \ before any " , but WAMP doesn't.
here is the text generated on localhost (WAMP)
&t2=<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">local text</TEXTFORMAT>&
online server:
&t2=<TEXTFORMAT LEADING=\"2\">online text</TEXTFORMAT>&
I know its not a Flash problem now, but do you have any idea?
Thanks

Externally Loaded Dynamic Text Problem

Hi,
Has anyone encountered problems loading in a % sign as part
of a string? For example I'm loading the following in from a
database through an asp page using sendAndLoad (this is just a
snippet of the results):
&AnswerEN1_1=8% &AnswerFR1_1=
The variable AnswerEN1_1 drops the % sign. The value for the
variable is just 8. if there's no space between the next variable
the value of AnswerEN1_1 becomes 8AnswerFR1_1= removing the &
as well
Any ideas, solutions?
Thanks,
Sean

Flash is seeing % as the start of a URL code--or perhaps ASP
is when it serves it up. Either way, you should be able to avoid it
by pruposely URL encoding it. I don't know any ASP but I'm sure
there is a URL encode function somewhere. Otherewise, the code for
% is apparently, %25, according to here:

XML via sendAndLoad to coldfusion server

Hello,
I'm working on this test that calls a coldfusion file server
and
delivers a login data.
Then the server validates the information provided and if
true returns a
xml data.
My problem is when using the sendAndLoad vars, on the onLoad
I receive a
xml damaged? or String?.
Something like a query string result, text like "<" and '
" ' are
converted to html text "<" and """.
This is my code:
// LOAD XML
var loadFromServer:XML = new XML ();
loadFromServer.ignoreWhite = true;
loadFromServer.onLoad = function (success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
trace(this)
// traces this:
//<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="iso-8859-1"?&gt
// insted of this:
// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
} else {
trace("error");
// SEND
var sendToServer:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
sendToServer.USER_ID = username;
sendToServer.USER_PASSWORD = userpassword;
sendToServer.sendAndLoad ("
http://domain/login.cfm",
loadFromServer,
"POST");
Is this a problem from:
Flash?
SendAndLoad with "POST"?
Server side?
Could some one help me please?
Thanks

Hello,
I'm working on this test that calls a coldfusion file server
and
delivers a login data.
Then the server validates the information provided and if
true returns a
xml data.
My problem is when using the sendAndLoad vars, on the onLoad
I receive a
xml damaged? or String?.
Something like a query string result, text like "<" and '
" ' are
converted to html text "<" and """.
This is my code:
// LOAD XML
var loadFromServer:XML = new XML ();
loadFromServer.ignoreWhite = true;
loadFromServer.onLoad = function (success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
trace(this)
// traces this:
//<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="iso-8859-1"?&gt
// insted of this:
// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
} else {
trace("error");
// SEND
var sendToServer:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
sendToServer.USER_ID = username;
sendToServer.USER_PASSWORD = userpassword;
sendToServer.sendAndLoad ("
http://domain/login.cfm",
loadFromServer,
"POST");
Is this a problem from:
Flash?

Variable Name Problem

Hi all,
By refering flash remoting variable declaration documents, it
says we can have a variable with $ and _ as a part of the variable.
i am using Flash Media server2, And PHP (version5.0.5); for
remoting.
when ever i used variable name with _ creates problem and
shows "" value;
Following is a sample code,
var myLoader = new LoadVars();
myLoader.user_id = "1";
myLoader.onLoaded = function(){
myLoader.sendAndLoad("myPhpPath",myLoader,"POST");
// this code creates problem(but its running in flash but not
in Mediaserver).
if i remove the _ symbol, it works fine,
Does anyone know why it happens

You can pass an init object as the 4th argument to load
movie.
Basically this takes the form of braces encapsulating a comma
seperated list of property_name colon property_value
eg {_x: xpos, _y:ypos}
_root.attachMovie(_global.cl_Name, _global.cl_Name,
_global.clipHeight++, {
_x: xValue,
_y: yValue
Happy Flashing

SendAndLoad with accented url

Hi all,
I have a little flash application(cs4) to read xml files and to display the contents. xml files are being read using LoadVars::sendAndLoad() over http. It works fine unless I have an accented characater in the url. For example:
http://localhost/rss/news.xml - works fine where as
http://localhost/rss/News_português.xml won't work.
Anybody ever faced this issue ? Any idea how to get around the problem ?
I appreciate your help.
Thanks
Faisal

Thanks, I tried URLLoader like you have advised, I am getting the following error messages:
1- The class or interface 'flash.net.URLRequest' could not be loaded
2- The class or interface 'flash.net.URLLoader' could not be loaded
I am using the first example in this url:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/OSMF/1.0/AS3LR/flash/net/URLLoader.html
import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.net.URLLoader;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    import flash.text.TextField;
    import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
    import flash.xml.*;
    import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
class includes.clsUserFeeds extends MovieClip
public function ReadChannel(strFeed, bCheck)
        var request1:URLRequest = new URLRequest(strFeed);
        loader = new URLLoader();
        try
            loader.load(request1);
        catch (error:SecurityError)
            trace("A SecurityError has occurred.");
        loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, errorHandler);
        loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderCompleteHandler);
        xmlTextField.x = 10;
        xmlTextField.y = 10;
        xmlTextField.background = true;
        xmlTextField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
        addChild(xmlTextField);
    private function loaderCompleteHandler(event:Event):void {
                try {
                    externalXML = new XML(loader.data);
                    readNodes(externalXML);
                } catch (e:TypeError) {
                    trace("Could not parse the XML file.");
        private function readNodes(node:XML):void {
                for each (var element:XML in node.elements())
                    trace(element.attributes()[0] + "\n");
                    readNodes(element);
        private function errorHandler(e:IOErrorEvent):void {
            trace("Had problem loading the XML File.");
Do I have to do anything specifically in project settings to use actionscript 3 ?
