I've also heard take your yearly salary, say $100k. Determine the hourly rate: $100k / 2000, which results in an hourly rate of $50. Now triple that to find your contracted rate. 33.3% for salary and healthcare (same amount taken home), 33.3% for capital (office space, computers,

You will need Microsoft to provide a crossdomain.xml (or proxy the call as others have suggested). I quickly checked and got a 404 here: http://staging.mappoint.net/crossdomain.xml On Nov 4, 2008, at 1:52 AM, ernoaapa wrote: Hi everyone! I'm begging for help. I'm trying to get data from

Was this ever resolved? I seems like it's not the right behavior. If it is, how would Jason accomplish his goal (and I know the answer isn't FlexBitmap...) Is it off to rawChildren? Can anyone see the error in this setup? //drawTest.mxml file: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

[flexcoders] AS3-only HEAD request

2007-03-27 Thread Daniel Thompson
The HTTPService has the ability to make a HEAD request. Is there a way to do the same in an ActionScript-only project? (I tried using a simple socket, but I can't ensure a wide-open crossdomain policy.) Basically, what I need to accomplish is to determine the URL of a resource (an MP3 or FLV)

Thanks norealnamesleft. I think it's turning out to be a bug in the Flash player. In 9r28 the timers start firing again; in 9r16 (or 9r15...), they do not. Thanks, -DT -Original Message- I had some weird deal where I had 2 timers calling the same EventHandler (copy and paste

[flexcoders] Built-in way to determine the number of XML elements

I'm trying to see if a response from the server is empty. So, in one case I end up with: root matches/ /root And in the other, I get: root matches match ... / /matches /root Using this fancy E4X, how do I test for the different conditions? I always seem to be getting back an XMLList,

I think matches.match.length() -- not matches.match.length -- should give you the number of match tags. Thanks Gordon. I was halfway there, having discovered length()... but was calling it on matches-- not match.

From Programming ActionScript 3.0: If you use Flex, you should know that Flex defines many component display object classes, and these classes override the display list access methods of the DisplayObjectContainer class. For example, the Container class of the mx.core package overrides the

Yes, you are right. But I implemented IMXMLObject interface. My class instantiates in the root of the component, but nowhere else. On the other hand native RadioButtonGroup that is also inherited from EventDispatcher, not UIComponent, could be instantiated even inside nested containers. Why
