Hello
I am fairly new to PHP, so please bear with me:
I am trying to write a php script that would read a text document on one machine and send that to Adobe Flex such that it would put that data into the appropriate fields.
I already have the connection between php and flex sorted out. But my only problem is trying to read the data on one’s computer.
This is what I have so far: (note I am doing this on a windows machine)
<?php
// get contents of a file into a string
$filename = "C:\Documents and Settings\me\Desktop\stationText.txt";
$return .= "<fileOpen>";
$handle = fopen($filename, "r");
if( $handle == false)
die("unable to open File");
$contents = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
fclose($handle);
$return .= "<viewData>".$contents."</viewData></fileOpen>";
echo $return;
?>
Note: I am sending the data to XML, such that it could be read in Adobe Flex (that part works as long as the fopen works)
Another Note: I am writing this to pass data to Flex 2.
Any help would be much greatly appreciated
