Re: [Flashcoders] Re: SWAddress logical workflow
Hi, By interrupting the loading / transition I mean: If someone navigates, causing a change in the SWFAddress URL and you start loading data corresponding to the change... ...THEN, whilst your data is still loading, someone clicks the back / forward buttons, maybe more than once... Your SWFAddress URL will change again and you MAY need to handle that change gracefully by interrupting what is going on already and dealing with last SWFAddress change received... For exampe: If you are halfway through an animated transition, what do you do - wiat for it to finish or stop it and make it run backwards, stop it and start a different one?? I don't know if Gaia does this - it might do out of the box reasonably well, so check it out... If you are loading data, that may be easy to interrupt - you could look at swapping Loader objects over, remove listeners from the dead one, if you can't tell the existing Loader to start over with your new request. Whatever happens, you either have to wait until the previous loading/animation finishes (takes time and this is what holds your site up), or you build in a way of killing that and doing another. I think the latter would make your site more responsive, but may take a lot of time and effort to get right so you may have to weigh up pros cons.

[Flashcoders] Re: SWAddress logical workflow
Well i believe that group 94 are using a different technique to implement SWFAddress dynamically. Ty also took care of fast next-previous browsing. What do you think?

Are you intending to change the title after the slide animation? I call setTitle at the same time I call the function to switch sections. On the undefined situation, you will probably have to write a conditional to handle undefined dates and/or include code to not allow future dates. -Gerry On Jun 13, 2009, at 2:19 PM, Omar Fouad wrote: Well i can do that but i don't use that syntax. i instead do /gallery/2. At the end i omit the first forward slash from the address value string, i split it to get an array of parameters such as, in this case, gallery and 2 which is the id of the photo to load. The dilemma now is to sync all this together. I don't know if you noticed but the address changing in the browser occurs after a second and not immediately. Check www.fwaphoto.com play with it and check the address behaviour after clicking. Today i discovered something interesting. In the address, replace the date of a picture to any date in the future like this www.fwaphoto.com/#/2009-6-20 and see what happens to the address when it finds nothing. The date changes to undefined! What the hell does this mean? On 6/13/09, Gerry noentour...@gmail.com wrote: Yeah, I understand. You'll need to figure out how to allow for extra params in the url. My function with the switch conditional code could be replaced with code that handles dynamic params. ie. do something with the string that includes /sectionName and if there is extra params after /sectionName?img= do something else. I'm just spit balling but that might be what you have to do. I don't think I've ever seen any tutorials on how anyone else has handled that. -Gerry On Jun 13, 2009, at 12:15 PM, Omar Fouad wrote: Thanks Gerry this is exactly what i do.
