Apparently, it wasn't Mr. Moock, by the way. I've rooted all the way through his sandbox. Lots of fun; no dice. Besides, I don't just want to enjoy them, I'd like to use them, if they're available.

[Flashcoders] multi language support and font embed/styling best practices?
greetings list. the team i am on is building an AS3 site that needs to support multi languages. I'm inquiring about best practices, custom built classes/solutions, etc for dealing with runtime font loading/sharing vs. embedding... basically a font management and styling solution allowing external text. i've seen a few blog posts on the subject and was wondering if there was a general consensus as to the best approach. thanks in advance. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] AS3 CSS + styling solutions
apologies if this is a tad vague, but i'm looking for a styling solution in AS3. We're looking for something that is more along the lines of a style manager to apply CSS formatting to be used in an MVC framework. if anyone knows of such tools please advise. thanks. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8 textfields in a Flash 7 SWF
for the effects to take affect, you'd need to publish in version 8. since those with 7 won't be able to load that (or might not be able to with predictable results) using System.capabilities.version to detect version number might not solve your problem. so within a single swf, i don't think you can accomplish that. On 3/21/07, Jake Prime [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I have a SWF which is published as Flash 8 purely to take advantage of the filter effects that can be applied to dynamic text fields. The problem is that I am now forced to deploy the project to Flash 7. I was hoping that I could do a detect within the SWF and serve up the nice Flash 8 text fields for the majority who can see it, and just have the plain old 7 ones for those who can't. Is there a way to do this within a single SWF?

Re: [Flashcoders] practical limits to size of XML files?
on the subject of Xpath with large files, i've been impressed with the speed of XMLUtilities for large XML files. granted it really is just a wrapper for the built in XML functions, but i found it very fast and light. and really i hardly use a fraction of what Xpath is capable of anyway. sorry for being off topic, in regards to that matter i feel the subject has been covererd by greater minds than mine. ;) On 3/12/07, Ron Wheeler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We do the same thing. Once you get the hang of the XML classes it is not too bad and you can really tune your access. If you are doing your own tree climbing it gets easier to deal with a multi-file XML structure that can help reduce the amount of XML that you have to parse in any given operation. You can break the tree from the root or from the leaves to optimize the apparent latency to the user. Ron Merrill, Jason wrote: I agree with what's been said, and would add that if you cannot use Flash 9 AS3 for your XML, then be wary of the third party XML parsers when dealing with XML files of this size. I had been in love with xfactorstudio's Xpath classes (which are mostly great by the way), until I had to read in a large XML file and convert to objects in Flash (I had to convert to objects in order to preprare the data for a webservice transfer). I ended up abandoning those classes and used the build-in XML classes. While very cumbersome to use, it was a huge improvement in performance.
