AS3 scripts is not working

[Micard]

Hey guys! So I have a simple php + AS3 thingie here. Could you please take a look really quickly?

AS3 code:

stop();

import flash.net.URLVariables;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.Event;


male_icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, maleChosen);
female_icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, femaleChosen);
cc_finish_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, finishClicked);



var PlayerGender:String = "";

username_txt.text = MovieClip(this).userNameVar;


function maleChosen(MouseEvent:Event):void {
		MovieClip(this).PlayerGender = "Male";
		gender_error_txt.text = "Male is chosen!";
}

function femaleChosen(MouseEvent:Event):void {
		MovieClip(this).PlayerGender = "Female";
		gender_error_txt.text = "Female is chosen!";
}

function finishClicked(MouseEvent:Event):void {
		if(MovieClip(this).PlayerGender != "")
		{
			
			var requestVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();

			//Something to send
			var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("scripts/create_character.php");
			req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
			req.data = requestVars;

			//Something that sends
			var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader;
			urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
			urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteCC);
			requestVars.player_gender = MovieClip(this).PlayerGender;
			requestVars.player_path = MovieClip(this).PlayerPath;
			requestVars.cc_request = "create_cc";

			//Send data over to php file
			urlLoader.load(req);
			
			
		}
		else
		{
			gender_error_txt.text = "Please pick your gender!";
		}
}

var result_final:String = this.CC_result;

//The handler itself on completion
function onCompleteCC(event:Event):void{

	var CC_result = event.target.data.cc_result;
	
	
	switch(CC_result){
				
				case "couldnt_create":
					gotoAndStop("cc_couldnt_create");
				break;
				case "pGpP_notset":
					gotoAndStop("cc_pGpP_notset");
				break;
				case "not_exist":
					gotoAndStop("cc_not_exist");
				break;
				case "char_created":
					gotoAndPlay(15);
				break;
				default:
					gotoAndPlay(5);
				break;
	}
}

create_character.php:

<?php
session_start();
include_once './connect.php';

if($_POST['cc_request'] != null && $_POST['cc_request'] == "create_cc") 
{
if(isset($_POST['player_gender']) && isset($_POST['player_path']))
{
    $PlayerGender = $_POST['player_gender'];
    $PlayerGender = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $PlayerGender);
    $PlayerPath = $_POST['player_path'];
    $PlayerPath = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $PlayerPath);
    $PlayerName = $_SESSION['username'];
    $PlayerPassword = $_SESSION['password'];
    
    $cc_query_sql = "UPDATE players SET gender = '$PlayerGender', path = '$PlayerPath' WHERE username = '$PlayerName' AND password = '$PlayerPassword' LIMIT 1";
        
    $this_query = mysqli_query($link, $cc_query_sql) or die(mysqli_error($link));
    
    if($this_query == false)
    {
        //$cc_result = "couldnt_create";
        echo "cc_request=couldnt_create";
        die();
    } else {
    
        //$cc_result = "char_created";
        echo "cc_request=charcreated";
    }
    
} else
{
    //$cc_result = "pGpP_notset";
    echo "cc_request=pGpP_notset";
    die();
}
    
} else
{
    //$cc_result = "not_exist";
    echo "cc_request=not_exist";
    die();
}

?>

The problem is that upon receiving the "charcreated" response, the variable CC_result in flash is undefined. It is actually undefined upon receiving any response. The php script is fine, it works. It sends cc_result=charcreated I checked it with firebug.

Hi,

Swap

urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
for
urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;

and swap

var CC_result = event.target.data.cc_result;
for
var CC_result = event.target.data;

[Micard]

Oh you're right. It would be type TEXT here, I forgot I was doing something else. So I tried to play around with sending both a variable and text - nope. CC_result is still undefined.

Hi,

Well it worked with my set up, however I had to change the set up as I don't have your files to see it and where you are getting your datas from.

[Micard]

This is my setup. I also have the following code on frame 1, layer AS3 SESSION (maybe that kind of interacts with the current code, no idea)

Screenshot:
flash_scr.png

stop();
import flash.net.URLVariables;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.Event;

var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();

var userNameVar:String;

//Something to send
var varSend:URLRequest = new URLRequest("scripts/getsessionvars.php");
varSend.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
varSend.data = variables;

//Something that sends
var varLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader;
varLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
varLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
variables.myRequest = "bringit";

//Send data over to php file
varLoader.load(varSend);

//The handler itself on completion
function completeHandler(event:Event):void{
	
	
	var idVar = event.target.data.id_var;
	MovieClip(this).userNameVar = event.target.data.uname_var;
	var passVar = event.target.data.upass_var;
	var resultStatus = event.target.data.my_result;
	
	if(resultStatus == "no_session"){
			gotoAndStop("no_session");
		} else if (resultStatus == "no_exist"){
				gotoAndStop("no_exist");
			} else if (resultStatus == "all_good"){
					userid_txt.text = idVar;
					username_txt.text = userNameVar;
					password_txt.text = passVar;
					gotoAndPlay(10);
				}
	}

Hi,

That doesn't really help ( well it doesn't help me anyway ), need to attach your files, or a slimmed down version.

Are you not getting errors

[Micard]

Nope, no errors. Just that the variable is undefined.

Here's the .fla file

And thanks for looking it into for me! Much appreciate it!

[fruitbeard]

Hi,

You should sort the order of your clip TheGameMC so that it goes to frames after the the send and load data, no going back on yourself.
It needs to be urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT; and var CC_result = event.target.data; as stated before hand.

You have some discrepencies with your data in the flash and php files.

case "char_created" :
    gotoAndPlay(15);
    break; 

should be charcreated.

it would help to have seen you php files too, as again I had to guess as to how you created your data.

[Micard]

Thanks but as I said I was playing around with these, changing both my php and as3 scripts. And yes, I did change it to what you said and it still would send me to frame 6 and say that the variable is undefined. However, the first script works just fine. Here's the getsessionvars.php file:

<?php
session_start();
include_once './connect.php';

if($_POST['myRequest'] != null && $_POST['myRequest'] == "bringit")
   {
       if(!isset($_SESSION['username']))
       {
           echo "my_result=no_session&id_var=false&uname_var=false&upass_var=false";
           die();
       }else
       {
           $id = $_SESSION['id'];
           $username = $_SESSION['username'];
           $password = $_SESSION['password'];
       }
       
       $sql = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT * FROM players WHERE username = '$username' AND password = '$password' LIMIT 1");
       $num_rows = mysqli_num_rows($sql);
       
       if($num_rows == 0)
       {
           echo "my_result=no_exist&id_var=false&uname_var=false&upass_var=false";
           die();
       } else
       {
           echo "my_result=all_good&id_var=$id&uname_var=$username&upass_var=$password";
       }
       
   }
?>

So this php script + AS3 SESSION script work just fine. I don't see the difference and why wouldn't the other one work as well.

Hey, thanks for your response! I haven't been able to check the thing out yet - busy week, but will do it as soon as I can! Thanks again!
