[flexcoders] Loading AS2 SWF in Flex 3

2009-04-05 Thread Hyder
I'm trying to load an AS2 swf using SWFLoader (Embedded) in a TitleWindow.

The SWF file plays fine in a standalone player, but when embedded in Flex, AS2 
scripted animations don't display.

I'm loading it inside Flex so that I can communicate using LocalConnection. 
Right now, I'm loading it in a separate HTML file but there's no way of 
communication with Flex.


So, I need to know either how I can embed the SWF file in Flex without losing 
any of its AS2 script, or how I can communicate between Flex and Flash when 
they're loading in two different wrappers.

I need to send product objects from AS2 Flash to Flex, so it's not just polling 
which could've been achieved by manipulating the URL.

[flexcoders] Re: TabNavigator - have to click twice on tab to display page

2008-09-25 Thread Hyder
I started having the same problem with my application recently. What's 
interesting is that it only happens with the debug version of my 
application. The debug version, not necessarily in debug mode 
(application-debug.swf). But when I compile a release version, the 
tabnav works just fine.

Also, after further testing, I noticed that it actually really happens 
only in my development environment. When I move the compiled debug 
version over to the server, it works fine!

Ahh... another thing, when i open the debug version swf in a 
standalone flash player, it works fine. So, I've narrowed it down to 
one of the html / js files... it probably has something to do with 
history management, i'm thinking.

Will post on further updates.

 I won't say that I need to click the tab twice, but I need to switch

  Subject: [flexcoders] TabNavigator - have to click twice on tab to
  display page
  
   
  
  I have a tab navigator with 3 tabs. Each tab has a canvas with 
  several components on it. when the page is displayed, you see the 
1st 
  tab. When I navigate to the 2nd tab, I have to click the 2nd tab 
  twice in order to view the contents of the tab. It looks like the 
  first click on the 2nd tab goes back to the first tab, then the 
2nd 
  click displays the contents of the 2nd tab.
  
  Was wondering if anyone has experienced this behavior and 
wondering 
  what I am doing wrong.
  
  Thanks in advance.

[flexcoders] Re: Learning Flex and AMFPHP

2008-09-25 Thread Hyder
I haven't really used RemoteObject a lot yet, but I was wondering the 
same thing. I think you're having trouble adding the method object to 
the RemoteObject Class... I'm not so sure about that either. This is 
just to clarify your question to others. I think that the current 
solution provided by other guys, though intended to be helpful, fails 
to explain how you really convert that code to its AS3 equivalent.

If that is the case, then the real question I guess is... are the 
method objects added to the RemoteObject added as a array list?

The rest of the code is simple:


private var myService:RemoteObject = new RemoteObject();

private function initApp():void {

   myService.showBusyCursor = true;
   myService.source = tutorials.HelloWorld;
   myService.destination = amfphp;
   myService.addEventListener(fault, faultHandler);

   // ADD METHOD CODE CAN GO HERE...!

}


Hope it helps!

[flexcoders] Flex SEO solutions success?

2008-09-25 Thread Hyder
Has anyone had any success with SEO workarounds with websites 
developed entirely in Flex.
Some that I know of:

1. Flex Templating (FXT)
2. Using SWFObject
3. Using XSL to display seperate alternate pages.
4. Google / Yahoo directly crawling and being able to read SWF 
contents.

I'm working on a classifieds website www.GulfSpecials.com developed 
entirely in Flex 3. I would encourage you to use it, add bogus content 
if you have to so I get to experiment with data. Google hasn't managed 
to read any content on it as yet.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 3 Migration shoots up Filesize by 400K

2008-07-17 Thread Hyder
Ahh... that's right, charting's included in data vis. too.

And I didn't know you could load .swc's at runtime... how do i do
that... moduleloader?

I don't need it for my current project since the dg is my primary
component but it's always good to know for future reference.

Also, how can i know what classes have been compiled in other .swcs.
For example, if I'm using only a single class in, lets say, rpc.swc.
Then I can probably find an alternative to that class and not include
that class in my application at all. That'd cut down on the
application size.

Thanks Tom!

 You're not compiling in just the ADG, but the whole of what used to be 
 Charting (now called Data Visualisation).
 You can reduce your users pain by using RSL to load the .swc's at
runtime, 
 from the users cache.

[flexcoders] Re: Framework as RSL issue

:-)

I've already read that post a couple of times Tom. Appreciate the 
effort you put in to help others out.

Ok, so should changing the order fix the issue? This is my order.

playerglobals
flex
framework
automation_flexkit
datavisualization
rps
utilities


And it still won't run.

playerglobals is external because i read somewhere that it shouldn't 
be set as a rsl.

everything else is exported as rsl.

and here's the verify error i get at run-time:

VerifyError: Error #1014: Class mx.skins::ProgrammaticSkin could not 
be found.

[flexcoders] Reusing anothers cached rsl framework

2008-05-31 Thread Hyder
I'm developing a website in flex. It uses some basic components... dg,
button, tabnav, etc. When I export the framework as a swz file, it
shows to be about 523KB (its framework 477: sdk3).

If this framework is cached by another domain, will flash player reuse
that framework or will it force the user to download this too?

If it does use the framework stored by another domain, what's the most
commonly used framework? I really hope the next flash player comes
with the flex framework coded into the player.
