Animate read variables in PHP page and print on screen

[Rui5E42]

Hello

I wanted Animate to read variables (text) from a PHP page (echo $word;) and print them on the screen.
I had that functionality working in Flash / ac3, but now with Animate I can't.
I can't find any clues how to do it in the forums about Animate.
I'm asking for your help.
Thanks!

var xmlhttp;

var tf = this.your_text_field;

if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else { // code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}

xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
tf.text = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}

xmlhttp.open("GET", "your_php_path_file.php", true);
xmlhttp.send();

It works! Thanks a lot!

You guys are awesome, great company.

I leave simplified code/example:

PHP:   s1.php

<?php
$texto_1="Olá Arbor!";
echo $texto_1;
?>

ACTION:

var tf = this.texto_1;

if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else { // code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}

xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
tf.text = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}

xmlhttp.open("GET", "s1.php", true);
xmlhttp.send();

Hi Kglad
Adobe Community Professional

After you taught me how to print a variable coming from PHP (text_1) in Animate, I ask you to help me print several variables.

The result from PHP/MySQL, converted to XML is this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<WORDS>
<VARBOR>text_1</VARBOR>
<VARBOR>text_2</VARBOR>
<VARBOR>text_3</VARBOR>
<VARBOR>text_4</VARBOR>
</WORDS>

I had it working in Flash / ac3 as well, but now with Animate I can't.

Thanks!

I leave the code used in Flash:

import flash.text.*;

var myXML:XML;
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

myLoader.load(new URLRequest("https://arbor.pt/arbor/arbor_1/palavras_arbor_1.php"));

myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);

function processXML(e:Event):void
{
myXML = new XML(e.target.data);

for (var i:int = 1; i<myXML.*.length(); i++)
{

var vtexto:String = "texto" + [i];

var formatacao:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); // Criacao do objecto de formatacao palavras

formatacao.font = "Arial"; // Definir a fonte
formatacao.size = 18; // DefInir tamanho
formatacao.color = 0xFFFFFF; // Definir cor do texto GERAL

var cxTexto:TextField = new TextField();

addChild(cxTexto);

this[vtexto].defaultTextFormat = formatacao;
this[vtexto].text = myXML.VARBOR[i];
addChild(this[vtexto]);

}
}
