Snapshot from Flash!

[dreamgal]

Hi,

I'm looking for a Save Button functionality - that could allow me to take a snapshot of .swf and allow it to be saved on server and displayed in browser, so people can right-click and will be able to save the image.....

I've been thru the snapshot tutorial http://www.flash-db.com/Tutorials/snapshot/index.php.... which is just great (Millions Thnx to the AUthor) but 'm unable to make the SOURCE TO JPG button work.. I donno where i am wrong....... My server has PHP 4.2+

I am using CS3 and AS2..................I am not much into AS but have little idea about it...

Thnx in advance

Your server have GD library enabled? Any error? Do you have the URL to take a look?

No errors coming, and I think the GD library is enabled...

Code:

[code]Its a windows IIS 7 Server, the file is not available.
Are you sure, there is php available?

You can check this very easy:

just create a file (you can name it info.php) with this content:
[code]
<?php
info();
?>

Upload it into your webhost root folder.

In your browser enter: http://www.sketchsa.com/info.php

If php is available, you will receive a list of configuration of the php.
There you can see, if GD-Lib is installed and which version it is.[/code][/code]

I just checked it, the PHP Version 5.2.11 and GD- bundled (2.0.34 compatible) is available.

I've re-uploaded the files here:

Please check, as I'm able to run the application, its just that , Im unable to get the "source to jpeg" button to work.

Thank a lot...

Just allow pop-ups and the image will be generated. Anyway I note your GD library is newer and will output some weird colors (some adjustements are needed that I never finalize)
A better routine could be used from here: http://www.quasimondo.com/archives/000572.php

Thanks a lot!

I just tried this http://www.quasimondo.com/archives/000572.php, its just amazing, thnx again.

Please can u check this link:

http://www.sketchsa.com/save/BE2/BitmapExporter/Flash/BitmapExporterDemo2.html,

The tried the newer BitmapExporter and just the problem I'm facing is that Im unable to save the image from it (might be due to that FP10 security issue).

Please can u guide me a bit on how to solve it.
