Hi, Don't need any specifics, but what is the best way to securely send user data for registration? We're trying to integrate our smart fox users with our forum users. Our forum uses a custom hashing function. Off the top of my head, my best guess would be to rewrite that hashing function for Flash ...

Was going to post about this but I figured it out. If you want to access multiple databases in SFS2X, just remove the database from the connection string: jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/database1 to jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/ When making calls to the database include the database name before the tabl...

Can you explain why this is not secure? Sure. I'm not an expert but from what I understand it's pretty easy to access another SWF's shared objects if your SWF is on the same domain. For example: 1. I upload my game to a game portal. 2. Someone decompiles my game and finds out how I'm storing my sha...

Hey, I have a database login for users. I'd like to add a "remember me" feature and was thinking about using a shared object. The only way I can think of doing it is by storing the user's username and password in the shared object and re-logging them when they reload my game. This doesn't ...

True true but now I'm curious. Say I did need to send a large file to another user, in Flash, and it's something that would only need to occur maybe once a day and the server is on complete lock down and only admins are allowed to use it. Would the best way be to cut it into chucks then send it acro...

Hi, sorry if this is listed somewhere but I can't find it. Is there a max size for sending a message in smart fox? I want to send a message that is close to a megabyte. Before I go through the process of testing this I was wondering if this would even work. If not, would I have to split the message ...

Hi, I've gotten some of the red box example working in Flex but I'm interested in developing in Flash CS3 using AS3. Before I embarked on converting some of the examples I was just curious if it was possible and if it is how would you set up the class path to the API? Thank you.

If the edit boxes for extensions and config files in the admin tool would scale when you maximized it that would be nice. I have some large extensions and it's hard scrolling through them so I usually opt to editing extensions in something else then uploading them which is a pain.

Oh ha sorry your right. I think the tutorial should still help.

Could you tell us what errors you are getting in the compiler you are using if any and also the output (usually Window > Compiler Errors and Window > Output)? Also, try setting the class path for another example and make sure you select the correct folder for the version of action script you are usi...

I don't think this is really a Smart Fox question but check out http://www.kirupa.com/web/xml/XMLsending1.htm. Please try another general flash board or google before using this one thank you.

Does every user receive messages in the same order? For example, if you are in a chat and one user says "first to respond gets a cookie!" and 4 users all send a response at the same time but each one has a different internet speed so certain ones get their faster. My question is, would eve...

I see. UserVariables are attached to the user so if he's in multiple rooms it's necessary to update all the people in those rooms. Maybe we could add an extra parameter to the setUserVariables that forces the update only in the specified room . Would this help? Would there be a way to also just pre...

So what kind of application is this? Is it necessary for ALL the data to be loaded at once? If it is an address book or something you could just send, for example, the first ten contacts and when the user hit "next page" or whatever you could load the next ten. Also, Lapo, it does sound li...
