Flash retrieve JSON result from MYSQL - php

Question

My app makes a call from Flash to get back list of countries but in my PHP the result is returning empty, i have created the table using phpMyAdmin and i have two rows in there.
Here is the code Action script 3:
package {
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLVariables;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLLoaderDataFormat;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;
public class SQL extends EventDispatcher{
var url:String = "";
var urlRequest:URLRequest;
public function SQL() {
// constructor code
}
public function Post(url:String, urlVaribles:URLVariables = null):void{
this.url = url;
this.urlRequest = this.urlRequestObj();
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
if(urlVaribles){
this.urlRequest.data = urlVaribles;
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
}
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dataPostOnLoad);
loader.load(this.urlRequest);
}
public function Get(url:String, urlVaribles:URLVariables = null):void{
this.url = url;
this.urlRequest = this.urlRequestObj();
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
if(urlVaribles){
this.urlRequest.data = urlVaribles;
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
}
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dataGetOnLoad);
loader.load(this.urlRequest);
}
private function urlRequestObj():URLRequest{
return new URLRequest(this.url);
}
private function dataPostOnLoad(evt:Event):void{
var evt2:SQLEvent=new SQLEvent(SQLEvent.POST_COMPLETE, evt.target.data);
dispatchEvent(evt2);
}
private function dataGetOnLoad(evt:Event):void{
trace("IN GET " + evt.target.data);
var evt2:SQLEvent=new SQLEvent(SQLEvent.GET_COMPLETE, evt.target.data);
dispatchEvent(evt2);
}
}
}
Code for the call from Flash:
import fl.motion.MotionEvent;
var sql:SQL = new SQL();
sql.addEventListener(SQLEvent.GET_COMPLETE, dataGetResponse);
sql.Get("http://localhost:8888/MAMP/HUGT/getCountriesDP.php");
mc_ddScroll.visible = false;
mc_ddScrollButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickScrollButton);
function dataGetResponse(e:SQLEvent):void {
trace("Countries " + e.params);
}
function clickScrollButton(e:MouseEvent):void{
if(mc_ddScroll.visible){
mc_ddScroll.visible = false;
}
else{
mc_ddScroll.visible = true;
}
}
And finally the PHP script:
getCountriesDP.php
<?php
include "connect.php";
$result = mysql_query($conn,"SELECT * FROM C_Countries");
if(mysql_num_rows($result)){
echo '{"countries":[';
$first = true;
$row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
while($row=mysql_fetch_row($result)){
// cast results to specific data types
if($first) {
$first = false;
} else {
echo ',';
}
echo json_encode($row);
}
echo ']}';
} else {
echo "[]";
}
mysqli_close($conn);
?>
Connect.php
<?php
$conn = mysql_connect("localhost","root","root");
mysql_select_db("HUGT", $conn);
// disable reporting errors for security reason
error_reporting(0);
// Error checking
if(!$conn) {
die('Could not connect ' . mysql_error());
}
?>

I just changed my php script to this:
<?php
$conn = mysqli_connect("localhost","root","root", "HUGT");
//mysql_select_db("HUGT", $conn);
// disable reporting errors for security reason
error_reporting(0);
// Error checking
if(mysqli_connect_errno()) {
die('Could not connect ' . mysqli_connect_error());
}
?>
and:
<?php
include "connect.php";
$result = mysqli_query($conn,"SELECT * FROM C_Countries");
$rows = array();
while($r = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$rows[] = $r;
}
echo json_encode($rows);
mysqli_close($conn);
?>
