Hi Ktu,
I believe you want it to be a function return.

txt.htmlText = "age: "

getNumericStepper could be a call to a createimage php file for  
example.
when returning the image, php will send the data and content type  
of the image and the  tag interprets it as an image.


like ...

return imagepng($image); //the last line in my createimage.php file

I did this with a captcha box I made.
Made one in flash and html. both call on that php file for the image.
That way if a user was viewing with flash or a non-flash user, both  
had to

submit this captcha to register for instance.

Hope im not too off.  *:)

Re: [Flashcoders] Getting Data into my SWF

2011-03-10 Thread Kevin Holleran
I'll explain further so I get valuable responses and avoid the sarcasm.  My
goal is to pass in the date from the server, the application counts down,
and when the date hits a certain time, the application does something.  This
something that the application does will also be loaded by calling a PHP
script that will load from a backend DB.  My concern is someone being able
to launch the SWF passing in an incorrect date that will trigger this
something early.

Thanks for your help.

[Flashcoders] Getting Data into my SWF

2011-03-10 Thread Kevin Holleran
Hello,

I am very new to implementing Flash and ActionScript so forgive me if I am
way off base.

I have an application that utilizes the date and time.  It is imperative
that this is correct and not from the client's machine.  To get the server
date/time, I can pass it in as a FlashVars or I can call a PHP script from
within Flash and load the date as returned data from the call.  Is there
another way?  Is one way more secure than another?  I have read FlashVars is
not "safe" but it always referenced passing passwords in.  I am not
concerned with the user SEEING the data, I just don't want them to be able
to load the SWF in a way that they would be able to pass in their own
values.

Also, in a similiar fashion, I want to load some data from a database.  I am
using a MySQL backend and figure to use a PHP script to do the data
manipulation I need then call the data from within my ActionScript.
 (Essentially, I am going to be loading some images from the database based
on criteria, then I want to be able to use those in my flash application).

Thanks for your patience and help.
