Re: [Flashcoders] Uncover the Flash Files

Re: [Flashcoders] Using Vista, Flash doesn't reload in FF or IE
Cheers for the replies folks. Firstly, we're unable to export as a projector.exe as the pitch requires the use of a browser. Not sure about commenting stuff until it works as the ActionScript involved is enormously complex, but we'll have a go at commenting the initial class instantiation and see if that makes a difference. The only thing I could think that might be causing an issue is that the swf uses LocalConnection and ExternalInterface to communicate with another SWF. I thought perhaps the security for this kind of thing might have been tightened up. I guess we'll have to create a bare bones ExtInt and LoCo test to see if that works... I'll post our findings back... Thanks again, James Ian Thomas wrote: For the record, SWFObject works fine on Vista - so it's not that.

Re: [Flashcoders] html in XML
Hi there, It's a restriction in XML that you cannot have markop, nor the open-angle bracket in an attribute value. or ; If you really want to use the attribute you have to escape the content, and unescaope while parsing in flash. W3.org: The ampersand character () and the left angle bracket () /MUST NOT/ appear in their literal form, except when used as markup delimiters, or within a comment http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-comment, a processing instruction http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-pi, or a CDATA section http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-cdsection. If they are needed elsewhere, they /MUST/ be escaped http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-escape using either numeric character references http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-charref or the strings |amp;| and |lt;| respectively. The right angle bracket () may be represented using the string |gt;|, and /MUST/, for compatibility http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-compat, be escaped using either |gt;| or a character reference when it appears in the string |]]| in content, when that string is not marking the end of a CDATA section http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-cdsection. In the content of elements, character data is any string of characters which does not contain the start-delimiter of any markup or the CDATA-section-close delimiter, |]]|. In a CDATA section, character data is any string of characters not including the CDATA-section-close delimiter. *CDATA sections* may occur anywhere character data may occur; they are used to escape blocks of text containing characters which would otherwise be recognized as markup. CDATA sections begin with the string |![CDATA[| and end with the string |]]|:] you open the cdata with ![CDATA[ and close it with ]] inbetween the html. source check: http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#syntax promo+biboune.net wrote: hi there i am having trouble to parse Html tags in a Xml file that is loaded in a flash file can anyone help here is the XML ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 ? icons icon image=gif/images.gif tooltip=tooltip content= here i want to have HTML tags like a href=somewhere.comclick here to go somewhere /a / /icons best jeanphy ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re[2]: [Flashcoders] html in XML
CDATA elements cannot be placed inside attributes. In attributes you can escape special characters with entities like gt; = lt; = amp; = quot; = But storing long texts in attributes seems to be not the best solution. If you use an XML handling library for creating your XML, you don't have to care about escaping - it is necessary only when you assemble it manually.

Re: [Flashcoders] another stupid XML question
for me i'd parse the entire xml in one go when the swf is loading. In parsing, save each subsection of the xml data into an array. When the button needs it, simply access the array. this is not a stupid question because I've seen similar scenarios in which the xml was completely reloaded only to target the desired subsection of the xml.

I think Attila is right in saying you need to not worry about changing the
xml, but rather how you use the data. In order for you to do that, you need
to convert ( parse ) the xml into a useable object. Then get the information
you need from that object.
Start by making an object that is like the xml;
obj = {
concept: [ {path: images/a1.jpg, br:413, ho:550,
thumbpath:thumbnails/a1.jpg, thumbwidth:56,thumbheight:75 },
{path: images/vue.jpg, br:550, ho:309,
thumbpath:thumbnails/vue.jpg, thumbwidth:56,thumbheight:75 } ],
details: [ {path: images/a1.jpg, br:413, ho:550,
thumbpath:thumbnails/a1.jpg, thumbwidth:56,thumbheight:75 },
{path: images/a2.jpg, br:550, ho:413,
thumbpath:thumbnails/a2.jpg, thumbwidth:56,thumbheight:75 } ]
}
Then access parts of your information when needed;
var array = obj.concept;
for ( var i = 0; i array.length; i++ ){
var thumbData = array [i];
var path = thumbData.path;
trace( 'concept path: ' + path );
}
var array = obj.details;
for ( var i = 0; i array.length; i++ ){
var thumbData = array [i];
var path = thumbData.path;
trace( 'details path: ' + path );
}
Once you get your thumbnails working, you can go back to the xml and work on
parsing it into that object above. You can try your own parser, or the handy
XML2Object - everything after this is just logic.

bd I'd like to be able to load and /or replace sections of this xml file.
bd
bd meaning:
bd when I click a button on stage, i'd like thumbnails(that code has
allready
bd been done) to appear from the concept node.
bd when I click another button on stage, i'd like that content to be
removed
bd (deleted from the stage, but not from the xml file ofcourse) and be
replaced
bd by content from the details node.
bd
bd yup, I feel stupid, but that's ok!

Re: [Flashcoders] AS2: EventDispatcher.initialize() andsuper()conflict?
On another note, if you only need to listen to another class events
simply register that class with the one you use. (like a controller)
Unless you need to dispatch an event afterwards.
import classToListen;
class myClass extends otherClass
{
private var _classToListen:classToListen;
function myClass(m:Model)
{
super();
}
public function register(registeredClass)
{
_classToListen = registeredClass;
_classToListen.addEventListener(onEvent, Delegate.create(this,
eventHandler);
}
public function eventHandler(evtObj:Object)
{
//do stuff
}
}
if you need to dispatch events then decorate with EventDispatcher as
Jesse and Muzak recommand.

Muzak wrote:
As Jesse said, use the static way instead of initializing it in the constructor.
This serves 2 purposes:
- mixin only occurs once (rather than which each instance created)
- mixin occurs before the constructor is run
With that said, any reason why you're not decorating the super class with
EventDispatcher?
When decorating the super class every subclass will have event dispatching
(which is usually what you want).

Muzak

I never use super() so I have no idea, but see what happens when you throw
the initialize in a static variable like;
class myClass extends otherClass
{
private static var EventDispatcherDependancy =
mx.events.EventDispatcher.initialize ( myClass.prototype );
public var addEventListener:Function;
public var removeEventListener:Function;
public var dispatchEvent:Function;
public function myClass (m:Model) {
super();
}
}

Subject: [Flashcoders] AS2: EventDispatcher.initialize() and
super()conflict?
I have a class that has to call it's superclass in the constructor.
However, it also needs to initialize EventDispatcher to listen to
dispatch events that another class is listening to. It seems, and I
could be wrong, that EventDispatcher does not work if it's not the first
thing in the constructor. I thought someone had said once, or I read
it, that EventDispatcher has to be first in the constructor. And of
course, probkem then is super() will not work if it's not first, so it
seems to be a catch-22. Is this true regarding
EventDispatcher.initialize() and how to avoid?
code snippet:
/*=Constructor=*/
public function MyClass(m:Model)
{
super(m);
EventDispatcher.initialize(this);
}
If this is OK then maybe something else is wrong in my code, I just
wanted to find out if maybe this is why the events aren't firing.
Thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] Using Vista, Flash doesn't reload in FF or IE
I was just presenting some of my work at a conference tonight where the laptop available was a Dell vista laptop. Absolutely terrible. Everything crawled or was very choppy frame rate wise. Even PONG. I had downloaded and installed the latest plugin on there myself, so I know it wasn't an installation issue. Had know such problems on the plethora of XP boxes (I.E. and firefox) and OSX versions we've been play testing this on for months. So I have to assume its a Vista issue.
