AS2: Simple Send and Load

Published in: ActionScript 

This is pretty handy if you need to make a request to a server and receive a response. For example, you want to send an e-mail in Flash using some PHP script. On the PHP side, request will be sent as


Plain TextExpand 
  1. var emailServer:String = "http://server.com/email.php"
  2.  
  3. var request:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
  4. var response:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
  5. 	response.onLoad = showResult;
  6.  
  7. /************************
  8. Server Request
  9. ************************/
  10. function sendEmail():Void{
  11. 	request.name = "chrisaiv";
  12. 	request.email = "blah@blah.com";
  13. 	request.url = "http://sendtoafriend";
  14. 	request.sendAndLoad(emailServer + "?clearCache=" + new Date().getTime(), response, "GET");
  15.  
  16. 	//Show data sent
  17. 	for (var prop in request){
  18. 		//trace( request[prop] + newline);
  19. 	}
  20. }
  21.  
  22. /************************
  23. Server Response
  24. ************************/
  25. function showResult():Void{
  26. 	if (this.success) {
  27. 		trace("File path: " + this.success);
  28. 	}
  29. }
  30.  
  31. sendEmail();
