Saving Local Data

Local data is used to save data into the user's machine such as score,level number,..etc.

On the top of this post I made a simple counter that counts how many times did the visitor visit my blog!

Here is the code for it

__________________code start____________________

var count:int;//the counter variable
var myLocalData:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("mygamedata");//making a local shared object

var myData:String=""+myLocalData.data.storedInfo;//adding the info in the shared object to myData

if(myData=="undefined")//if there is no stored data before in the shared object it will return undefined
myLocalData.data.storedInfo=1;//store one because this is the 1st visit

else//if this is not the 1st visit increment the value of the shared object by 1
++myLocalData.data.storedInfo;


count=myLocalData.data.storedInfo;//assign the value of the shared object into count
counter.text=""+count;//write the vaalue of count

Enjoy it!!
