In this tutorial, learn how to use the LoadVars object to import text from an external .txt file, and automatically update the display AFTER the text loads. Also included are some tips for using HTML and special characters.
This tutorial will help people get started integrating Flash and mySQL data so you can easily display database fields in your flash movie. You can develop this code further to create dynamic Flash movies that feed off a mySQL database.
This tutorial/article attempts to explain one method of loading external data (different server/domain) into a Flash movie. This allows for constantly changing updated data to be included in your flash movie that is based on an external data source. It includes all the necessary scripts along with an example of a search engine based on results from an external source.
How to set up a guestbook that stores entries in a MySQL database. Includes all source files. Great first project for flash designers who are learning to implement back-end data systems.
This tutorial teaches you how Flash obtains data from External sources. You might be wondering how a flash (.SWF) file obtains data from remote files. Flash can obtain external data from:
External Text Files (*.txt)
ASP/PHP Files (*.asp,*.php)
XML Files (*.xml)
The values from these files has to be sent in format understandable by Flash. Flash Actionscript has an XML object to obtain data from XML files. The Flash player loads variables and their values from any of the remote file into its memory and then uses them as required
With the release of Flash MX 2004, a new arena was opened up for Flash Programmers called the Flash Javascript API. The programmers can now extend the Flash authoring environment itself to execute customized tasks making life much easier.
Another hidden away feature of Flash MX, this time a method of the LoadVars object. This little method, is the method that the LoadVars object uses internally to decode your name/value pairs into object properties and values...
Are you sick of your browser caching loaded variables? are you sick of loaded movies being cached? Then heres how to stop the browser from caching your data...
Sometimes it is necessary to determine if a file exists using actionscript, for example when you have a preloader cue, that loads a series of .jpgs one after another, if one of the files doesnt exist then the cue wouldnt traverse any further, you could of course use a timeout in that scenario but why not just check if the file exists before loading it, so that if necessary you can move onto the next item in the cue almost instantly.
A simple and efficient way of implementing flash hit counter, you can incorporate the same in HTML pages, it is not mandatory that we need to have the page to be dynamic (i.e., ASP), the external file. running is going to be a Asp page with Flash hit counter.
This tutorial will show you how to set paths to media content by passing variables to flash using html, as opposed to "hard coding" paths inside of flash. This allows for slightly more dynamic flash video delivery (especially if used as part of a bigger application), easier and faster updatability, and just less hassle overall.
