Storing data out to external file...?

I have a question I'd like to put forward to anyone who can
help me. It's a bit vague, perhaps, but any help would be
appreciated...
I need to make a Flash application into which you can INPUT
data, and then have that data STORED somehow / kept in memory -
probably in an external file of some format outside of the Flash
file, so that the next time you launch the Flash file, that same
EXTERNAL data will be read by the Flash file and will display in
the interface.
The key thing here though is that file will NOT be hosted
online, so it cannot make use of any "online-only" scripting (if
such a thing exists?).
I need to host and run the Flash application from my local
hard drive, and all external files need to be on my local hard
drive too.
Is it possible to set up the scenario I've outlined? Where do
I even begin?
I fully appreciate that this will be a big project, requiring
a great deal of learning on my part, but I'm willing to give it a
go, providing I know where to start...
What am I looking at here? PHP? CGI? XML? Will those run
locally? I really don't know...
Like I said, I really know nothing about any of this, and I'm
perfectly willing to learn, but I just need to know WHERE to start
learning, and WHAT to learn...
Again - any help appreciated.
Thanks.

you can use the flash sharedobject to store data from one
flash session to another.

  • Read data out of htm-file

    dear guys
    i got the problem that i want to get some data out of a htm-file. that is why i have to choose a format that is more "universal" than an excel-file
    the problem is i got a excel-file and save it as htm/html - file because i got a excel-book with more than 20 linked spreadsheets in it and there is
    no other format in excel that can handle this linking by being universal enough to start my program on some other pc's
    so i dont want to manage it in excel because there are usually some version-conflicts using the original program of the project i am working on.
    so is it basically possible to get data out of a htm-file and if the answer is yes how....??

    Tobias,
    there could be several ways to solve your request.
    As far as i understand you like to create an offline analysis of your data. Datasource is excel.
    If you can switch to "online analysis", you could use ActiveX to fetch data from excel and perharps write results back to it from LV.
    If you stay offline, you have to choose a mechanic which works out for you. Since it seems to me that the file format is kind of given, you have to go through the analysis regardless of its effort (which can get very ugly....).
    In any case, you can view a file as a stream of data. The only question is how this stream looks like. This defines how you have to interpret the stream. ASCII-files can be interpreted very easy since you can use all the nice stringfunction (search and so on). Disadvantage is that these mechanics are slow. Binary files are faster, but you have to know very good how the file was created.
    Again, in any case, you have to know where the data are....
    So i fear that you have to go the whole way and analyse the files to know where to search for your content.....

  • Help!!!! with storing data in an external movie

    Hi guys,
    I have to make a flash website of a paint dealer. The website would have a background image on the stage and this would be the background of all the pages that are called by clicking on the buttons. Every new called page would be placed on top of this image as a POP UP window (window 1). In one of the pages I plan to show all the colours in an image gallery with thumbnails.
    If I click on a thumbnail I'll get a transparent pop up window of the product with information, etc.(window 2)
    On that transparent window I'll put some buttons. a.o: "Save colours" So if I click on that button,  my chosen colour would be saved in a page where I can collect maximum 6 colours. If I go to that page (let's call that page "My pallet"), then I'll see all the thumbnails of the colours that I've saved.
    If I click on one thumbnail in that page then I'll get a pop up window with a bigger image of the colour and some extra buttons. In that page I can delete the chosen colour from "My Pallet" page and if I do that, then that specific colour would be deleted from "My Pallet" page and so "My Pallet" page would consist less thumbnails of the saved colours.
    Does anyone have any idea in global how I can make such a website, especially how I can dynamically save the chosen colours and delete them from the external page?

    You can use a SharedObject to store data on the client side.

  • How can I write to a (external)file from a stored procedure

    I want to write some data to a (external) file. I have it working with the function UTL_FILE.

    an extraction out of expert one-on-one from Thomas Kyte
    <quote>
    when an oracle istance is created the services that support it are setup to 'log on as' the system (or operating system) account, this account has very few privileges and no acces to Window NT Domains. To access another Windows NT machine the OracleServiceXXXX must be setup to logon to the appropriate Windows NT Domain as a user who has acces to the required location for UTL_FILE.
    To change the default logon for the Oracle services go to (in Windows NT):
    Control Panel | Services | OracleServiceXXXX | startup | log on as; (where XXXX is the instance name)
    In Windows 2000, this would be:
    Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services | OracleServiceXXX | Properties | Log on tab; (again XXXX is the instance name)
    Choose the This Account radio button, and then complete the appropriate domain login information. ONce the services have been setup as a user with the appropriate privileges, ther are two options dfor setting UTL_FILE_DIR:
    * Mapped Dirve: To use a mapped drive, the user that the service starts as must have setup a drive to match UTL_FILE_DIR and be logged onto the server when UTL_FILE is in use.
    * Universal Naming Convention: UNC is preferable to Mapped Drives because it does not require anyone to be logged on and utl_file_dir should be set to a name in the form \\<machine name>\<share name>\<path>
    You will of course need to stop and restart Oracle after changing the properties of the service.

  • Downloading the data to external file

    HI ABAPers,
       I have a dynamic internal table which i created using CREATE DATA statement and i have put in data into it. I have to download that internal table data into a external file. As the internal table is dynamically created it will be dereferenced using a field symbol. In all the download function modules like gui_download ws_downlaod and method like CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD we can pass only the standarad table for downloading the data and not the table which is dereferenced by field-symbols. Kindly help.
    Regards,
    Kasi S

    Hi Kasi,
    As the great Max just said, the best way for you to download the dynamic internal table is via an intermediate table made up of characters.
    Declare a table as under:
    DATA: BEGIN OF itab  OCCURS 0,
               FIELD TYPE char256,
              END OF itab.
    Then transfer the contents of your field symbol to this internal table row by row.
    Then you can download the table using CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD .

  • Reading the Blob and writing it to an external file in an xml tree format

    Hi,
    We have a table by name clarity_response_log and content of the column(Response_file) is BLOB and we have xml file or xml content in that column. Most probably the column or table may be having more than 5 records and hence we need to read the corresponding blob content and write to an external file.
    CREATE TABLE CLARITY_RESPONSE_LOG

    What was wrong with the previous answers given on your other thread:
    Export Blob data to text file(-29285-ORA-29285: file write error)
    If there's a continuing issue, stay with the same thread, don't just ask the same question again and again, it's really Pi**es people off and causes confusion as not everyone will be familiar with what answers you've already had. You're just wasting people's time by doing that.
    As already mentioned before, convert your BLOB to a CLOB and then to XMLTYPE where it can be treated as XML and written out to file in a variety of ways including the way I showed you on the other thread.
    You really seem to be struggling to get the worst possible way to work.

    startTime="26-3-09 8:0:0" endTime="26-3-09 9:0:0" />
    </items>
    And I solve it with this (don't know if is the best):
    private function onResultHttpServiceTask(e:ResultEvent):void
    var a:Array = xmlListToObjectArray(e.result.item);
    tasks = new ArrayCollection(a);
    protected function
    xmlListToObjectArray(xmlList:XMLList):Array
    var a:Array = new Array();
    for each(var xml:XML in xmlList)
    var attributes:XMLList = xml.attributes();
    var o:Object = new Object();
    for each (var attribute:XML in attributes)
    var nodeName:String = attribute.name().toString();
    var value:*;
    value = attribute.toString();
    o[nodeName] = value;
    a.push(new ObjectProxy(o));
    return a;
    But when the children "enter in action" I don't know how to
    bring them to the array...
    This code you send it's preaty much the thing I need, but the
    thing is that I don't know how to call the children with data as
    e:ResultEvent...
    If you can help a bit more, I would really appreciate...
    Thank You

  • HT1751 when i have moved all of my data to an external hard drive should i delete all of the library files on my laptop/PC

    i have moved all of my data to an external hard drive should i then delete the copies on my laptop

    What are you actually trying to accomplish? Backing up the library, or moving it?
    If backing up don't delete anything.
    If moving did you move the library files as well? Ideally you would copy the entire iTunes folder out to the external drive then shift-start iTunes to connect to the relocated library. This method makes it easier to move the library to a new drive or computer later and keeps everything together for backing up. Rather than delete everything rename the iTunes or iTunes Media folder first (depending on which approach you took) and make sure the library still works before deleting.

  • How can I pass a file refnum into and out of external c++ code? What type does it convert to in c++?

    I am trying to write external c++ code that will read a file already opened by Labview and therefore assigned a refnum. (Unfortunately, I definately can't use the standard Labview vis.) However I am not sure what c++ type to use in order to manage the refnum.
    All help and thoughts appreciated. Thanks,
    Joanna

    You could do ALL your file handling in C or C++ (MFC CFile for
    example) and pass Microsoft file handles into and out of LabVIEW
    instead of LabVIEW file references into and out of C. This may be an
    easier way to attack the problem.
    You could create a DLL in MSVC that exports a FileOpen function, a
    FileClose function and a FileRead and/or FileWrite Function and then
    call that DLL from place to place as required in your code.
    It would help us if you would explain what kind of data you are trying
    to read or write and what the application is. Is it binary data?
    text files? Do you need some special Win32 file system feature like
    file mapped memory? I guess what I am asking is what is your
    motivation for doing file handling in C or C++?

  • Sending and getting data from external file.

    I'm running it in actionscript 1  and 2 since 3 wouldn't work when getting data from external media. I'm  trying to find out how to post data to a PHP file and getting from that  file I'm trying to make the flash for something that works like a game  but differently. Since I just found out how to make the HTML stuff show  up but a lot of times, some of my text will not appear so I don't know  what's going on.
    Does anyone know how to send and get data both at the same time from a sample file?
    The sample file is example.php
    It has to sent information like ID and NAME
    and it has to get information like Description and userID

    The tutorial I pointed you to does provide the visuals you requested, both the AS code and sample PHP code, so I can't see where your learning by visuals aspect holds up.... your approach sounds more like you want someone to hand you a tailored solution that you won't need to learn from.  Visuals require reading and doing.  If that fails to get absorbed or you couldn't understand/revise it, what could anyone else prepare for you that would work better?
    I did the tutorial and everything but every time I press the button or even load it, it keeps on saying undefined. I like the have a sample FLA file so I can figure things out. I did everything from the site but it won't work out for me.
    I did step 5 too because it was almost all that I was looking for but it won't even work. keeps on saying undefined. I would show you but webcam max won't work and I can't show you an example.
    EDIT:
    You know it's frustrating when I don't know how the heck I'm supposed to do this stuff. I read the whole dang thing and I still can't get this dang thing working.
    I did everything. EVERYTHING. I just don't get this crap.
