FlashComm and cookies
|
|
| Mart Gordon 2005-05-05, 5:45 pm |
| I need to send a cookie as a variable to FCS which then gets output to a
perl script via netServices when an onSave function is called in the
Flash movie.
The application is a video record app that punts the recorded flv to a
users webspace when they hit the save button. The cookie needs to come
from the page that is holding the Flash movie.
Having never played around with Flash and cookies before, is there a way
of Flash reading the content of a cookie and storing it in a variable
that it then sends to the FCS before outputting it via the PERL script?
TIA
Mart

| I'm not sure what server-side language you are using, but I know this is
possible using ASP.NET. You just get the cookies values and place them
in the FlashVars <param> tag in your object definition. This way the
values are in your flash app. Then just have flash send them to FCS and
run your function. This should work...

| Michael,
Do you mean your LoadVars<param> instead of FlashVars?

| Well I suppose that could work too...but I was thinking the Flash app
was going to be sitting on an active page (aspx, asp, php...) and that
way the variable could just be fed in using FlashVars...but LoadVars
would work too.

| Michael,
Ok, I see your approach. No need for LoadVars() as you suggest.
