Hmm... I guess it could work. Here is how I see it. Why would you do
this outside of flash?
Cons:
The user must have javascript enabled (Often not a problem)
The remote data must reside on the html server (sort of)
Data source can be detected by viewing source
Pros:
You already have coded
Thanks a lot Glen!
Exactly what i was looking for.

Hi list -
I am using the flash CS3 components - and have hit a little snag -
when testing in the IDE ( or just running the SWF ) all the fonts show
up fine - no problem. However the moment the site goes in the browser

Hi,
For future reference, if you want one file to load after the other,
you should look at listening to the UILoader for the completed loading
event:

Hi,
Try putting a text field off the stage set and embed your chosen
font into it - that used to do the trick with AS2.

Hi,
Loading data remotely, there are lots of options, but if you already
have a working system, I would stick to it for this project.
From the sound of things, you are loading HTML into Flash. If you
are cunning, you may be able to ensure that the HTML is XHTML and then
it may be
I'm pretty sure the text field trick should work because it forces the
font to be registered. Just embedding fonts in your library won't be
enough if they are accessed via code only. To avoid the text field
trick you will need to use Font.registerFont() to make them usable in
your app.
Hi Glen - thanks for the answer.. Yep - i remember that one - I tried
this at first and sadly it did not work...
however to make things stranger - the fonts work in the textfield when
i use the keys to select from the drop down (then mouse selection
works). But it does not work initially.
1000.00? I'd have asked five times that minimum for 50 hours of work or I
wouldn't have done it - especially in a rush and working in the evenings.
You're getting like $20 an hour... and you still have to pay taxes on it.
Not that I haven't done stuff on the cheap before, but it's been a while.
Hello to the people that responded, especially Glen Pike,
Thanks for the responses; yet, this project is actually ajax (or AJAJ, a
redundancy I know, considering I am really using Script source renewal)
not flash, and I know how, actually I am very well versed, in loading
data from external
this is getting stranger - I have tried a lot of things ( now slowly
looking at hacking into the input box component ). The odd thing is
that this works in the flash IDE - but not when its online / in the
browser - it just does not show the font.

Hello All,
The messed up thing is the guy I work for is a nice guy; yet, the guy he
works for, is putting a great deal of pressure on him to deliver, and it
is being passed on to me. I am a little behind schedule, several days,
because of a few factors that I couldn't control, my hosting
my advice is: be honest and tell the truth. i mean it literally.
tell him what was causing the delay on sides of your database
provider and apologise for your mistake to not considering possible
delays upfront when telling him how long you will need.
as you mentioned: definitively do NOT tell him
Hello Dr. Ache,
Thank you for the advice, it pretty much sums up my conclusions.
I may lose this client; yet, hopefully, I will find another one soon,
with whom I can appropriately apply these principals.
Thanks,

Yeah, I think you just have to go point by point and politely and
diplomatically explain why the project is being delayed, and give lots of
specific examples. When you are done, ask HIM, how we (meaning you and him)
