Plus if you are doing simple database work, you can use SSAS with ColdFuion as well. Thanks to the lessons of my ColdFusion mentor Kevin Aebig, I find ColdFusion and Remoting much more rewarding for the time I put into it than working with PHP (when Flash is involved). blue skies, bryan ___ 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: [Flashcoders] Cross domain policy file issues

In the Flash 7 and 8 security model, a cross domain policy XMl file is required to use getURL to access other domains outside the domain the .swf is on. What do you mean? When is getURL failing for you? The only security situation with getURL is cross domain scripting attacks - like the myspace worm - but this is resolved with the "AllowScriptAccess" parameter/attribute in the Object/Embed tags of your html. Are you sure that you don't have yours set to "never"? That is the only way that getURL fails that I know of - in order to prevent malicious swfs from calling javascript with getURL. If you are trying to access a webservice that does not have a crossdomain.xml file that will work for you, then you have to use a proxy server to interact with the 3rd party domain and shuttle the data back to flash. blue skies, bryan ___ 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] Flex 2 SDK Sample Files crash 8.5 Player on OSX
Hi All, I guess the subject pretty much covers it. I downloaded the Flex 2 SDK (FlexSDK2_B2_03-16) and (after having to re-save the shell script as a unix file to get rid of window line returns) I compiled the sample files. Although it took a while, it seemed to work and now I have a bunch of new swfs in the sample directories. The problem is that when I try to run the sample files in the 8.5 player it crashes the player. Other people's Flex-created swfs available on the web have NOT crashed the player. SWFs I create with the Flash 8 IDE do NOT seem to crash the player. When I try to view a swf that is compiled on my machine - it crashes the entire browser (both Safari and Firefox). Can anyone point me to solutions or help with this issue? Since this is the only way I can learn Flex on my Mac, I would really like to figure out why the hell it is not working. This whole 'you-suck-cause-you're-on-a-mac-and-can't-really-use-Flex 2' thing has me just about ready to throw in the towel - seriously.

[Flashcoders] Printing at higher than screen resolution?
Hi All, Is there anyway to print (using PrintJob specifically) from Flash at a higher DPI than screen resolution? I always thought the definitive answer was "NO", but this technote clouds the issue for me slightly: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/8/ releasenotes.html Under Know Issues > Printing: "Flash Player does not support printer resolutions higher than 300 dpi in this release. If you see printing artifacts, ensure your printer resolution is set to 300 dpi. (111216)" To what is this technote related? How would one print from Flash Player (in any scenario) at a resolution higher than screen resolution in the context of this technote? On a related note, I have noticed much better quality when printing bitmaps from Flash player, it I load images that are twice the height and width that I want, and set the xscale and yscale = 50. It looks worse on the SCREEN than images that are the not scaled, but prints MUCH better. I was surprised to see this, and in fact lost an argument. I thought that the scaled down images would look as crappy as the do on the screen, but it is the opposite. (To clarify, I want to print an image that is 300 by 300 pixels. I load it in to Flash and print it using PrintJob. If I load a 600 by 600 pixel image in, and then scale it by 50% the resulting print out is MUCH better looking (though it is opposite when displayed on the screen.) Why is this the case?
