Simple Question: Echo Uploaded Filename

programming flash
1

I have a very simple actionscript 3 class, used to upload an .xml file to a php script:

package {
    import flash.display.*;
    import flash.text.*;
    import flash.events.*;
    import flash.net.*;

    public class loadXML2 {
        //private var uploadURL:URLRequest;
        private var file:FileReference;
        private var _message:TextField;
        
        public function loadXML2() {
            file = new FileReference();
            configureListeners(file);
            var filter:FileFilter = new FileFilter("XML Files", "*.xml");
            file.browse([filter]);
        }

        private function configureListeners(dispatcher:IEventDispatcher):void {
            dispatcher.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, selectHandler);
        }

        private function selectHandler(event:Event):void {
            
            var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
            request.url = "load.php";
            request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
            
            var file:FileReference = FileReference(event.target);
            file.upload(request);
            navigateToURL( request, "_blank" );
        }
    }
}

However I do not know PHP. Could anyone tell me what the script “load.php” should contain to echo out either the name of the uploaded file or its contents?

I’ve tried:

<?php
echo 'Begin';
echo $_FILES['file']['name'];
echo 'End';
?>

and

<?php
$xmldoc = $GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA'];
echo 'Begin';
echo $xmldoc;
echo file_get_contents("$xmldoc");
echo 'End';
?>

which both only display ‘BeginEnd’, and nothing in between.

Thanks for any help. :slight_smile:
