Flash + XML (Level Upload)

CodeSpawn · 07-13-2009, 01:42 PM

Well I am trying to create a game. I was hoping to allow users to create and upload their own levels.

Making a level editor in Flash should be no problem. I've created one before. The problem is after that.

1) How do I export the level as XML in Flash?
2) How do I use Flash to upload that same XML level to a server?

Using this I should be able to load the levels.

But I see a problem in that. It uses a main .xml file that holds the locations/names of the other levels. But if other people are uploading their own then you would need to update the main file. Is this possible or the correct way? I would think that getting all of the files located in that directory would work better. Is this possible or the correct way?

Sorry for asking. But I can't seem to find any useful answers online.

Well I got the levels to load perfectly. Can someone please help me with creating and uploading the XML file to a server?

The game loaded XML but doesn't seem to work when uploaded to a server. Can someone please tell me why?

All I need to know is how to transfer data from Flash to php.

Can you all at least tell me why you won't help me instead of ignoring me?
