I see what you mean by setting a future date on the FWA site - I managed
to screw up the history completely (FF2 WinXP) so got stuck forever on
that date a bit like Groundhog Day :)
I think the only way to deal with fast browsing is to allow your loading
/ transition process to be interrupted if you keep getting changes from
SWFAddress. Personally, I have not really thought about this in my
stuff before, but the way you said you were approaching the SWFAddress
bit seemed sensible to me - going a round-about way by setting the URL
when you navigate in Flash then responding to the change via
SWFAddress. This seems much "safer" because everything goes through a
single route.
There is a nice example of doing the dynamic thing with PHP in the
SWFAddress examples. You can even tweak the whole site with Apache &
mod_rewrite to get "pretty" URL's - this may / may not work with Zend
AMF quite nicely so download and examine this example:
http://www.asual.com/swfaddress/samples/seo/ which seems to be the
smoothest one.
If you are worried about fast clicking, have a look to see how an HTML
site behaves with this - I guess you get half-assed page loading, etc.
But people expect to wait a bit for something to load if they go back &
forth, you just have to be prepared to "interrupt" what you are doing (I
should probably take my own advice here and make sure my SWFAddress site
behaves nicely)
Hope this helps and if you come up with any interesting stuff, let us know!

Well i believe that group 94 are using a different technique to
implement SWFAddress dynamically. Ty also took care of fast
next-previous browsing. What do you think?

That's strange, you might be setting the value later in your sequence.
I've never had this happen before.
Are you intending to change the title after the slide animation?
I call setTitle at the same time I call the function to switch sections.
On the undefined situation, you will probably have to write a
conditional to handle undefined dates and/or
include code to not allow future dates.

Well i can do that but i don't use that syntax. i instead do
/gallery/2. At the end i omit the first forward slash from the address
value string, i split it to get an array of parameters such as, in
this case, "gallery" and "2" which is the id of the photo to load.
The dilemma now is to sync all this together. I don't know if you
noticed but the address changing in the browser occurs after a second
and not immediately. Check www.fwaphoto.com play with it and check the
address behaviour after clicking. Today i discovered something
interesting. In the address, replace the date of a picture to any date
in the future like this www.fwaphoto.com/#/2009-6-20 and see what
happens to the address when it finds nothing. The date changes to
undefined! What the hell does this mean?

Yeah, I understand. You'll need to figure out how to allow for extra
params in the url.
My function with the switch conditional code could be replaced with
code that handles
dynamic params.
ie. do something with the string that includes "/sectionName" and if
there is extra params
after /sectionName?img= do something else.
I'm just spit balling but that might be what you have to do.
I don't think I've ever seen any tutorials on how anyone else has
handled that.

Thanks Gerry this is exactly what i do. But as Matt says there is a
problem when i rapidily fire next and previous, things screw up.
Another thing, what if i have a section in my movie like a gallery,
and i need to add an additional parameter to the address like the
photo id to load the image, this is tricky. i've been experiencing
too much problems.

Can you describe what the bugs are? SWFAddress can be tricky,
especially with rapid-fire clicking of the browser previous/next
buttons.

I don't know if this is the right thing to do in this case. I just
need
some
advice because things are too much buggy.
