Re: [flexcoders] Flex and URL variables

[JesterXL]

Don't know the Flex 2 way.   For Flex 1.5, I used Kevin Lynch's deep linking code.   http://www.klynch.com/archives/000076.html   My implementation: http://www.jessewarden.com/archives/2005/10/code_share_real.html   Basically, _javascript_ will set vars for you and you can use Kevin's class to get vars.  The are at least 2 other implementations I've seen on the net, but this one worked, so I stuck with it.   So:   codeid = browserState.getValue("codeid");   Allows me to get the codeid value from this url: http://dev.jessewarden.com/flex/codeshare/#codeid=43   And thus I can do stuff with that variable.  If I want to update the browser's URL to reflect the "state" of the app:   browserState.setValue("codeid", posts_lb.selectedItem.id);   You can bookmark these links too.  There was something funky with Firefox where you come from an existing bookmark or something, but whatever it was was an extreme use case (sort of).         ----- Original Message ----- From: Jonathan Miranda To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 6:02 PM Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Flex and URL variables Dos     _________________________________________ Jonathan Miranda Flexible Master of the Web "Try not to become a man of success, but a man of value." - Albert Einstein HealthGrades: Guiding America to Better Healthcare™ NASDAQ: HGRD w  (720) 963-3832 c  (707) 761-0868 [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________ The message contains confidential and/or legally privileged information and is intended for use only by the indicated addressee.  If you are not the named addressee you should not disseminate, distribute, or copy this e-mail.

Let’s say I start my app @ http://mysite.com/index.mxml?number=3 What’s the easiest way to get that 3 into a variable in Flex? Using FlashVars in the embed/object tags and then somehow do mx.core.application.Application.number as my variable? _________________________________________ Jonathan Miranda Flexible Master of the Web "Try not to become a man of success, but a man of value." - Albert Einstein HealthGrades: Guiding America to Better Healthcare™ NASDAQ: HGRD w  (720) 963-3832 c  (707) 761-0868 [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________ The message contains confidential and/or legally privileged information and is intended for use only by the indicated addressee.  If you are not the named addressee you should not disseminate, distribute, or copy this e-mail.
