Question by pando · May 02, 2012 at 08:42 AM · serverxmlphpuploadwwwform

Help with saving XML files with PHP to a server

Hi All,

I had serialize the object and trying to post it to my php, Unity3d shows url malformed whenever I click save button.

_GameSaveLoad.cs

[CODE]

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; using System.Xml; using System.Xml.XPath; using System.Xml.Serialization; using System.IO; using System.Text;

public class _GameSaveLoad : MonoBehaviour {

 //local private members
 Rect _Save, _Load, _SaveMSG, _LoadMSG;
 bool _ShouldSave, _ShouldLoad, _SwitchSave, _SwitchLoad;
 string _FileLocation, _FileName;
 public GameObject _Player;
 UserData myData;
 string _PlayerName;
 string _data;
 
 Vector3 VPosition;
 
 public string getFileName;
 
 string url;
 byte[] bytes;

 //When the EGO is instansiated the Atart will trigger
 //so we setup our initial values for our local members
 void Start () {
     
     //we setup our rectangles for our messages
     _Save = new Rect( 10, 80, 100, 20 );
     _Load = new Rect( 10, 100, 100, 20 );
     _SaveMSG = new Rect( 10, 120, 100, 20 );
     _LoadMSG = new Rect( 10, 140, 400, 40 );
     
     //Where we want to save and load to and from
     _FileLocation = Application.dataPath + @"/Data";
     string url="http://localhost/demoProject/upload.php";
     //_FileLocation = url;
     
     //for now, lets just set the name to Joe Schmoe
     _PlayerName = "Joe Schmoe";
     
     //we need something to store the information into
     myData = new UserData();
 }
 
 // Update is called once per frame
 void Update () {
 
 }
 
 void OnGUI () {
     //Create File Name
     getFileName = GUI.TextField( new Rect( 20, 150, 150, 30 ), getFileName, 45 );
     print( getFileName );
     
     _FileName = getFileName + ".xml";
     
     //Loading the player
     if( GUI.Button( _Load, "Load" ) ) {
         GUI.Label( _LoadMSG, "Loading from: " + _FileLocation );
         //Load out userData into myData
         LoadXML();
         if( _data.ToString() != "" ) {
             //notice how I use a referenvce to type (UserData) here, you need this
             //so that the returned objects is converted into the correct type
             myData = (UserData)DeserializeObject(_data);
             //set the players position to the data we loaded
             VPosition = new Vector3( myData._iUser.x, myData._iUser.y, myData._iUser.z );
             _Player.transform.position = VPosition;
             //just a way to show that we loaded in ok
             Debug.Log( myData._iUser.name );
         }
     }
     
     //Saving the player
     if( GUI.Button( _Save, "Save" ) ) {
