My code not posts data to url

[trecords]

Hi,

I have wrote my first little code on Actionscript Actually i am an php developer but i have started with flash today :S so i have created this code:

function post_results(userid,session,score) {
    // Post data to database
    var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); 
    var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("example.com/post.php");

    req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

    var postData:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
    postData.uid = "000023542543";
    postData.ses = "w6r4gt46wrtg4w3trg1ew3rt5h465tw";
    postData.scr = "5868"; 
    
    req.data = postData; 
    try {
        loader.load(req);
        trace("Data Sent");
        trace(req.join());
    } catch (error:Error) {
        trace("Unable to load requested document.");
    }  

}

I have added some demo data in "postData" for to debug to see if it can post them correctly. Remote server is php based application which stores received data into txt file in server.
See this code and check please why what is problem there.

Data loading is asynchronous, you have to wait for the loading to complete. Listen for the Event.COMPLETE event.

Does this work any better?
Any errors?

function post_results(userid,session,score):void
{
    var postData:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
    postData.uid = userid;
    postData.ses = session;
    postData.scr = score; 
    
    // Post data to database
    var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
    var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("example.com/post.php");
    req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
    req.data = postData;
    
    try
    {
        loader.load(req);
        trace("Data Sent");
        trace(req.join());
    }
    catch (error:Error)
    {
        trace("Unable to load requested document.");
    }

}

post_results("000023542543","w6r4gt46wrtg4w3trg1ew3rt5h465tw","5868");

I got his error:
Symbol=ftc_game, layer=end game, frame=1, Line 1 '{' expected
Line 1 is:
function post_results(userid,session,score):void

Not sure why it says this error because there are alsready { symbol on next line, i have moved it to first line end also but still got same error.
I have wrote new code:

PHP Code:

function data_sent () {
    trace("Data Sent");
}

function post_results(userid,session,score) {
    var postData:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
    postData.uid = '00031653156431'; //userid;
    postData.ses = 'gtrgrwe6gt46e54hy6e5hy'; //session;
    postData.scr = '5487'; 
    
    // Post data to database
    var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
    var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("/site/post.php");
    req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
    req.data = postData;
    
    try
    {
        loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,this.data_sent());
        loader.load(req);
    }
    catch (error:Error)
    {
        trace("Unable to load requested document.");
    }

} 


This code uses Event.COMPLETE function but still not works

Help me please how to solve this.

Do NOT call the listener function while adding it. Also, the listener function has the wrong prototype. It must take exactly one argument, the Event object.

Also, try typing your arguments, the type information is good.

Sorry but couldn`t got what you mean. How to call listerner function? can you give example plz.

[henke37]

You don't. That's how. Flash calls it, not you.
