[Flashcoders] FileReference

I'm trying to use fileReference to allow users to download images, but
it keeps failing, without errors, and without even seeming to start
the download. What makes it weird is that it does open the finder
window and prompts me to save the select a download location etc, but
then when I click save...nothing. No errors, no files, just nothing.
Here is the code I'm currently using (with puppy photo substituted for
actual content). This is failing both locally and when uploaded to the
server. Any suggestions much appreciated, I've been googling but
havent found a solution.

[Flashcoders] fileReference and proxy
Hi all, I have a problem with the fileReference class and the proxy. The situation is a Flash movie in which you can select files and upload them to the server via the fileReference.upload() method. On the server the upload() method calls a Coldfusion file which handles the upload to the correct folder. Access to the internet goes throu a proxy. After clicking the button to fire the fileReference.upload() method, Flash returns a 407 error (proxy authentication error). This error only shows up on a Mac - Firefox combination! On a Windows - Firefox combination you get a prompt to fill in your proxy username and password. Not perfect but the upload works. Is there a way to solve this problem? A search on the net shows a lot questions like this, but no answers... Thanx allready!!

[Flashcoders] FileReference
I was happy to see a FileReference Class finally in Flash so that the upload of basic files could be accomplished without the use of backend scripts. However, I want to use FileReference in a slightly different way and I feel like it should be possible but can't quite get there. Here's the goal: Allow the user to select a text file from their local file system to populate a text field on the stage. Solution?: I used FileReference.browse() to allow the user to find the file of interest, once selected, I have access to the FileReference properties including file name. If I had the path to the file in addition to name, I could use URLLoader to pull in the text file, but I only have name. Questions: Is there a way to get at the full qualified path for the file? Or better, since I have the FileReference object, is there a way to access its contents?

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference
Paul, FileReference allows for the upload and download of files. You first have to upload the file (with use of a backend script (PHP or whatever). Once the file is uploaded you can use the FileReference's download() method to download the file. You should then be able to open the file and display it's contents in the TextInput. You are not able to get the fully qualified file path on the person's local machine.

RE: [Flashcoders] FileReference
I don't think you can access the contents, but you should know where the file is uploaded to on your server, and thus, with the selected filename from FileReference, you know the filename and thus along with Flash's ._url property, all the info about the URL you need.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference
The file has to be uploaded to your server first, so your assumption that you don't need a backend script isn't correct. You don't have direct acces to files through a FileReference instance, for security reasons. So after the user has selected the file using FileReference.browse(), you have to use FileReference.upload() to upload the file to your server using your choice of server side script (PHP, CF, JAVA, etc..). Once the file is uploaded you can then load it into your Flash app. regards, Muzak - Original Message - From: Paul Chang [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2007 9:32 PM Subject: [Flashcoders] FileReference I was happy to see a FileReference Class finally in Flash so that the upload of basic files could be accomplished without the use of backend scripts.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference
Newer versions of the Flash Player allow you to send back a response when the upload has finished. This can be used to send back the actual path and filename of the uploaded file. Retrieving the initial filename is not always sufficient. Often you will have to rename the file on the server to avoid conflicts with existing files, etc.. FileReference.onUploadCompleteData Availability: ActionScript 2.0; Flash Player 9.0.28.0 http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/1674.html Note the Flash player version. This means that FileReference in flash player 8 does not have this event and you'll have to find another way to get information from the server (if needed) after a file has been uploaded. regards, Muzak - Original Message - From: Merrill, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2007 9:54 PM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] FileReference I don't think you can access the contents, but you should know where the file is uploaded to on your server, and thus, with the selected filename from FileReference, you know the filename and thus along with Flash's ._url property, all the info about the URL you need.

I have an project that needs to allow users to only upload mp3 files.
It works fine on a PC. But on a mac the mp3 files are greyed out and
the user is unable to select a file. Here is my code below: What am I

fileRef.addListener(listener);

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference and mac file types
the mac file type for an mp3 will be (note the spaces in the strings - mac
file types are 4 characters) MP3 or Mp3 .i think. mac file types
and pc file types are not the same.
check this article: http://www.tink.ws/blog/macintosh-file-types/
i did some stuff with FileReference a while back and concluded that it was
easier, and maybe safer to take the name, or type property of a
FileReference object and do a toLowerCase().indexOf(mp3) on that to ensure
the right file types.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference and mac file types
Thanks guys. First I tried setting the mac file types to tink's list
(ie: macType:MPG3;MP3_;Mp3_;MPEG). Didn't work. Then I read Josh's
page and he suggested not putting any mactype... It worked. Sweet.
Thanks again.

[Flashcoders] FileReference + upload + larger files
Hello all, I'm running into a peculiar problem with the FileReference class and i've seen this problem crop up spurratically in my searches but can't find any definitive information on it. I'm inconsistently getting a script is causing Flash to run slowly dialog, if i choose not to cancel the script the upload continues, the dialog will come back, rinse repeat. But it's very inconsistent, this happens maybe 8 out of 10, at different points within the upload. It's not an IO, security or http error, all server settings are proper, files have rights, php is set to well over 500MB. It's just strange as it actually does go through sometimes. I've come across the technote on adobe's site which discusses the reasons why you might get this error and that confuses me even more since this doesn't happen consistently. I'm not doing anything fancy, no intervals, enterframes, for or while loops etc, just using the onProgress event to scale a bar for the users reference. These files aren't massive and i'm well below the suggested 100MB limit, files tested range from 30-50MB. This occurs on mac pc, firefox, safari, ie. Also using the latest Flash player, haven't tried in 8 yet. Also only uploading 1 file at a time not multiples using the FileReferenceList. Small files, 1-5MB go through without a hitch. Has anyone experienced this? I'm guessing there is no way around this other than modifying the timeout time within the swf using Buraks SWF ScriptLimits Injector but I'm hesitatnt to try that.

RE: [Flashcoders] FileReference and actionscript 2.0
Pretty simple:
import flash.net.FileReference;
class package.FileReferenceListener extends Object {
public function FileReferenceListener () {
super();
}
private function onCancel(file:FileReference):Void {
trace(onCancel: + file.name);
}
private function onOpen(file:FileReference):Void {
trace(onOpen: + file.name);
}
private function onProgress(file:FileReference,
bytesLoaded:Number, bytesTotal:Number):Void {
trace(onProgess: + file.name + : + bytesLoaded + / +
bytesTotal);
}
}
Then, elsewhere, you can do something like this:
import flash.net.FileReference;
import package.FileReferenceListener;
// ...
var file:FileReference = new FileReference();
var listener:FileReferenceListener = new FileReferenceListener();
file.addListener(listener);
// Do stuff with file.

Hi dear Hank
I think after a successfull upload and inserting in db, I can set the
record ID (or any thing else) in User Session in server and after
successful upload( returning true to flash ) call a simple remoting
method that invoke id from session and return it to flash.
After all I think I don't undrestand some of key features of AS 2.0 ::
listener.onCancel = function(file:FileReference):Void {
trace(onCancel);
}
listener.onOpen = function(file:FileReference):Void {

}
listener.onProgress = function(file:FileReference, bytesLoaded:Number,
bytesTotal:Number):Void {

}
I don't know where can I put event methods like this in my AS 2.0 class.
What did I misundrestand??
All the samples are in AS1 and I don't know what to do for my events :(

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference and actionscript 2.0
one way of doing it:
class MyClass {
var file:FileReference;
function doit() {
file = new FileReference();
file.addListener(this);
file.browse();
}
function onCancel() {
trace(user canceled);
}
function onBlah()
}
hope this helps,

I am curious what those tricks are.
What I do is to ask the server for an upload code number before I upload
This upload code is associated with the given user and whatever the user is
trying to do. This is application specific. This creates a record in the
database, so that when the file is uploaded the server knows what it is.
Then I send the parameter as part of the upload URL. Additionally, I make
the upload codes time out. So if a code isnt used within a few minutes it is
no longer usable.

FileReference do the transfer by a POST but it seems that there is no way

Correct, as far as I know, they did not give a way to recieve any data

Hi list
I try to use FileReference class in a actionscript 2.0 project. the
browse and upload methods work fine but it seems that this class
designed
for AS 1.0 (???). I can't find any AS 2.0 sample and don't know what to
do
for catching events . I think this class has bad architecture. for
example I
need to put the uploaded file in database and return its ID to client.
The class works fine in AS2, you catch the events pretty much the exact
same
was as other built in classes (like MovieClip, XML, etc)
FileReference do the transfer by a POST but it seems that there is no way
to
catch a response from server for this POST Action.
Correct, as far as I know, they did not give a way to recieve any data
returned from the server. All you can know is that the action completed.
any body has some experience to do the uplad with flash remoting?
You can't upload files from the user's local drive using flash remoting.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference and Getting File Path
You'd get a preview without uploading, by accessing the file directly from
the user's harddrive.
However, this is not supported for security reasons. Basically, the answer
is NO, with standard flash, you cannot read files from the user's harddrive
without uploading them to the server first and reading them from there.

[Flashcoders] fileReference download
Hey all,
I'm having real problems with FileReference download.
I'm doing the following... the class is created with a verified URL
and legit filename.
The .download() call returns success
I get the OS dialog box (Mac OSX 10.4.5 - also tried online on Win XP)
I select a folder, and hit Save
Then, Flash Authoring crashes!
I get no trace output (that I can see before the crash)
Tried online, it just hangs.
In neither case does the server show any record of an attempt to
access the chosen file.
I realize there could be sandbox issues, but I doubt this is the problem
(the url online is from the same domain, and this shouldn't cause a
crash in Authoring anyway)
Anyone have experience with download()?
Any gotchas I may have overlooked here?
Should onOpen at least be called when the dialog box is opened?
Or is this called when the socket is opened?
Thanks in advance for any help...

[Flashcoders] FileReference upload, change file name

This is all working. I only need the ability to change the name of the file that is being uploaded. How would I go about this? I tried changing the [FileReference instance].name field but this is read only. On the php side I am not sure if I can pass through other data with the file data. Any help would be great.

[Flashcoders] Filereference upload on macintosh
Hi, I've been working on an extensive upload component making use of the flash 8 filereference classes. Everything works great on windows ,no problems there but on macintosh I'm experiencing lots of problems. I've tested it for a while and noticed that neither the onProgress or onComplete events are triggered while uploading on a mac. I've read in other threads here on flashcoders that sometimes indeed one of the events doesn't trigger. But in all problem situations I've read about ,there only seems to be 1 broken event not 2. I could easily make a quick fix if either the onComplete or onProgress event work but with only the onOpen event triggering there's not much I can do. Things i've tried: - simplifying my code to a very basic version : make an listenerObject, define the events , assign the listenerObject to the filereference object, browse, upload (basicly textbook version) - server side uploading with a coldfusion cfm page containing only this. The normal method I am using that works like a charm on windows. cffile action=upload filefield=Filedata destination=#dir# nameconflict=makeunique connectionstring being = http://.../upload.cfm?dir= - server side uploading with a coldfusion service file, cfc. Tried this because somebody fixed the onComplete event by making sure the uploadscript returned something. cfcomponent cffunction name=doUpload access=remote cfargument name=dir type=string required=yes cffile action=upload filefield=Filedata destination=#dir# nameconflict=makeunique cfreturn 1 /cffunction /cfcomponent connectionstring being = http://../upload.cfc?method=doUploaddir =... I am testing everything on mac os X version 10.4.5 , Safari and internet explorer mac edition browser. Anyone who encountered these problems before ,and perhaps found a fix ,that can help me? I'd greatly appriciate it. Thanks.

I could easily make a quick fix if either the onComplete or onProgress event work but with only the onOpen event triggering there's not much I can do. Things i've tried: - simplifying my code to a very basic version : make an listenerObject, define the events , assign the listenerObject to the filereference object, browse, upload (basicly textbook version) - server side uploading with a coldfusion cfm page containing only this. The normal method I am using that works like a charm on windows. cffile action=upload filefield=Filedata destination=#dir# nameconflict=makeunique connectionstring being = http://.../upload.cfm?dir= - server side uploading with a coldfusion service file, cfc. Tried this because somebody fixed the onComplete event by making sure the uploadscript returned something. cfcomponent cffunction name=doUpload access=remote cfargument name=dir type=string required=yes cffile action=upload filefield=Filedata destination=#dir# nameconflict=makeunique cfreturn 1 /cffunction /cfcomponent connectionstring being = http://../upload.cfc?method=doUploaddir =... I am testing everything on mac os X version 10.4.5 , Safari and internet explorer mac edition browser. Anyone who encountered these problems before ,and perhaps found a fix ,that can help me? I'd greatly appriciate it. Thanks.

[Flashcoders] FileReference
Hi,
Is there a way to get the FileReference to open different browse window
styles - or are we stuck with the one it gives!? The Windows / IE browse
window I am after is basically a resizable window.
Note, to see the default window which Flash triggers, paste this code
onto the first frame of a blank movie:
import flash.net.FileReference;
var imageFile:FileReference = new FileReference();
imageFile.browse([{description: Image Files, extension:
*.jpg;*.gif;*.png}]);
Cheers,
Jason.

[Flashcoders] FileReference: verify file and return status
Hey Folks, I'm uploading files from my SWF with FileReference and I need to verify the file is acceptable on the server (make sure it is a non progressive JPG) and let the SWF client know if the file was accepted by the server or rejected. I've been using ColdFusion for this and it has a handy 'accept' attribute for the cffile tag where you can specify the mime type to allow. Unfortunately using this attribute breaks the upload (even if the mime type is correct) thanks to a bug in the F8 player. So right now I've been forced to make it a 2 step operation, first upload the file, then on completion the SWF client makes a Flash Remoting call to a service that verifys the file and returns a result depending if the file is acceptable or not. I think it would be excellent if FileReference could accept a response from the server alongside the file upload complete so this could be reduced to a 1 step operation. Can't see how that could be done at the moment though. Anyone out there come up with any elegant solutions for uplaoding and verifying in one? ** WISHLIST It would be cool if the FileReference class could access the file mime type in the SWF.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference class [Get path of a selected file]
Can you elaborate on that: normal mac FB - resize and all (???)
When using the following:
import flash.net.FileReference;
var listener:Object = new Object();
function onSelect (file:FileReference):Void {
trace(file.name);
};
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();
fileRef.addListener(this);
fileRef.browse();
in the event object (file) all you get is the file name, which isn't of any use
if you selected a file outside the directory of
which the swf is run.
regards,
Muzak
