[Flashcoders] blank flash movie (what is this)

2006-07-27 Thread Gavin Lilley

I have recently produced a simple movie that appears not to work.

The movie is :
http://www.stairclimber-uk.com/images/movie.html
http://www.stairclimber-uk.com/images/movie.swf
http://www.stairclimber-uk.com/images/movie.fla

When I try to see that movie on my localhost - it looks fine. When I look at
it on the above server, it is blank.

Do you think that I have done something wrong with the flash? Or is it
possible that it is the (Windows) server?

Hi there Adrian,

Yes, I have uploaded this file.

Im thinking that it is some permissions problem or relative path problem.

Re: [Flashcoders] looking for some .NET to Flash tools

2006-04-03 Thread Gavin Lilley
I do not fully understand what you mean by .net database?

if this is an online project with a budget and php is an option then I
recomend amfphp. or remoting for .net is good.

if this is an offline project then it is possible to connect to .net
facilities via the ExternalInterface.

Re: [Flashcoders] remoting.net with mssql

2006-01-25 Thread Gavin Lilley
I think that my (alck of) .net skills are the problem.

this code is fine...
code
%@ Page language=C#%
%@ Import Namespace=System.Data %
%@ Import Namespace=System.Data.OleDb %
%@ Register TagPrefix=MM Namespace=FlashGateway Assembly=flashgateway
%

script langauge=C# runat=server
void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e){
// build a connection string
string cnnString = Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=xyz ; Initial
Catalog=xyz;User ID=xyz;Password=xyz; Network Library =dbmssocn;

// connect to the server
OleDbConnection sqlCnn = new OleDbConnection(cnnString);

string sqlQuery=SELECT * FROM TABLE';
OleDbDataAdapter sqlData = new OleDbDataAdapter(sqlQuery,sqlCnn);

// fill the DataSet
DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet();
sqlData.Fill(myDataSet,productList);

// set the dataSource property to the resulting table
myFlash.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables[0];
// bind the data to the Flash Control
myFlash.DataBind();

}
/script
MM:Flash id='myFlash' runat=server/
/code

when i try to adapt to use sp with the following...
code
%@ Page language=C#%
%@ Import Namespace=System.Data %
%@ Import Namespace=System.Data.OleDb %
%@ Register TagPrefix=MM Namespace=FlashGateway Assembly=flashgateway
%

script langauge=VB runat=server
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs)
// build a connection string
Set objConnection = Server.CreateObject(ADODB.Connection)
Set objCommand = Server.CreateObject(ADODB.Command)
Set objRecordset= Server.CreateObject(ADODB.Recordset)

with objCommand
.ActiveConnection =  Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=xyz ; Initial
Catalog=xyz;User ID=xyz;Password=xyz; Network Library =dbmssocn;
.CommandText = spgetstarfromtable
.CommandType = 4
.Parameters.refresh()
.Parameters(@paramID).value = star
.Execute
end with

objRecordset.Cursorlocation = 3
objRecordset.Open objCommand, , 3

myFlash.Result = objRecordset.RecordCount
myFlash.DataBind()
end sub
/script
MM:Flash id='myFlash' runat=server/
/code

this is currently where I am at, if anyone can hint me in the right direct
then I am all ears!

Re: [Flashcoders] NetConnection Debugger not working in Flash 8? - SOLVED

2006-01-24 Thread Gavin Lilley
Thanks Grant,

I think that many developers installed flash 8 early on, before the remoting
files for version 8 were released and so copied the files manually in the
way that you describe.

I will try to copy the files in the way you describe - there seems to be a
lot of duplicate files on my system, but I will work it out.

 I have found the solution to this problem.  If I replace the
 mx.remoting.debug.* classes from the Flash 8 remoting with those from
 Flash MX2004, then the Netconnection Debugger works from Flash 8.

 Doing a diff shows that the new Flash 8 classes only include definition
 of the available debug functions, whereas the MX2004 classes included
 the actual implementation.  I am not sure why so few people appear to be
 affected by this, and since you can't download the MX2004 trial any more
 it may be a problem for anyone who doesn't already have it installed...
 If anyone does need these files and cannot source them elsewhere feel
 free to email me.

Re: [Flashcoders] NetConnection Debugger not working in Flash 8? - SOLVED

2006-01-24 Thread Gavin Lilley
This solution works now and my remoting debugger now displays information
for my old programs, for example if i run a precomiled swf (from mx 2004) i
am able to see the information.

but if i load the fla into flash 8 and comile - the swf will function
without a problem but the netconnection debugger will not dispaly
information.

am i forgetting to include a file?

this...
import mx.remoting.NetServices;
import mx.remoting.DataGlue;
import mx.remoting.debug.NetDebug;

also, this is the same problem...
import mx.remoting.*;


can anyone shed light on this???

[Flashcoders] remoting.net with mssql

2006-01-23 Thread Gavin Lilley
After a few years of php, I am (re)learning asp.net and have started to
convert php to asp as I find that working with my own code is a great help
(although it is a gif and a curse at times)!

I am unable to connect to a MSSQL2000 database in order to either call a
stored procedure or inline sql code and I have searched everywhere to find
some examples.

Can anyone please help me?

Re: [Flashcoders] NetConnection Debugger not working in Flash 8?

2006-01-20 Thread Gavin Lilley
I have exactly the same problem. I have installed a fresh version of 8 and
then remoting and components.

Do you have Flash 7 and Flash 8 on the same pc?

Im wondering if it is possible to install 7 first and then install 8 'over
the top of 7' to solve this problem.

I read about copying old library files across but as far as I can see I am
missing nothing.

 I have just upgraded my workflow to Flash 8 and the latest MTASC today,
 and found that while my Remoting calls were working, nothing was
 printing in the NetConnection Debugger.  After some debugging I have
 found that I cannot get anything to print to the NetConnection Debugger
 even from within the Flash 8 IDE, and this is with a clean reinstall of
 Flash 8 (no previous version of Flash installed) and the Remoting
 components.  I have set the Flash 8 security settings to Always Allow,
 and to trust anything in C:\.

 The follow code, when applied to the first frame of an empty movie with
 just the RemotingConnector Component on the stage, works in Flash 7, but
 does not work in Flash 8.  The log messages work fine (and the remoting
 connection is created and works), but nothing appears in the
 NetConnection Debugger.

 Can anyone see a problem with this, or even replicate the error?

Re: [Flashcoders] amfphp, flash 8 and netdebug

Did anyone solve this problem?

I ask as I have the same problem following an upgrade to Flash 8. :-(

I seem to have 3 isntances of classes installed at various locations on my
hard drive, but nothing is repsonding and the ncd is vital to
troubleshooting - but how do I trouble shoot the ncd?!?

cheers,

[Flashcoders] remoting v service

2005-12-12 Thread Gavin Lilley
  javascript:setIrrelevant(1573074);
Due to changes beyond my control, I am now working on a M$ .NET/MSSQL server
and need to migrate my old php/mysql code over. The php code includes AMFPHP
Remoting classes.

I am looking at either porting the classes into ASP Remoting or creating a
set of wsdl Web services.

Can anyone give me any insight into why they would use one technology over
the other please?

I have read that the two technologies combined work well, I dont understand
this as I see a web service as an alternative to remoting - am I missing
something here?

[Flashcoders] blank text bug in v2 components ?

2005-11-08 Thread Gavin Lilley
I seem to have a problem with v2 components, and I cannot get to the bottom
of the problem.

I have a medium sized app with Datagrid, TextArea and ComboBox components
poulated by PHPAMF data.

Certain sequences of events, eg. click on this1_mc and then this2_mc will
make the TextArea and ComboBox components blank. I can select and copy/paste
the etxt, edit the text but I cannot see the text.

If I apply a colour to the backgorund eg.
'myText.setStyle(backgroundColor, 0xFF);' I can see that the
text is visible and the
backgorund appears to be positioned in front of the text.

I have reinstalled Flash with the latest components.

I have recreated the movie from scratch and all is fine at first and then
the bug seems to rear its ugly head.

I have searched extensivly to find out about this problem and it seems that
it shoudl have been fixed in 7.2 and again in 8. I have also tried solutions
related toi masks (I have no masks in my movie) and embedded fonts (this
makes to differance).

Teh only workaround I can find is a cheat which appears to work. '
myText.depthChild0._alpha=0;' But I would prefer to try to understand this
problem and if I am going wrong.

Has anyone experienced simlar problems? Am I missing something?
