Hi Coders,
I have come across swf's embedded in PDFs, and in the process of doing

Hello,
I have a quick question; can't find any answers on the net.

is there anyway I can then associate little images, like bullet pictures
for the li items?

Hi all,
does anyone have any thoughts or links regarding best-practice when it comes
to CVS and Flash? I'm looking into creating a repository but am unsure what
the best setup might be regarding the location of .as, .fla, .html files?
I notice Flex makes use of a bin directory; is this a good
SourceSafe on Windows is the only supported version control software that
integrates with the Project panel. You can use other version control
software packages with FLA documents, but not necessarily in the Project
panel.

A better approach will be to programatically get the number of LI tags and
replace them with numbers in a loop. I have used this approach in some
projects and it works very well.
I guess this approach would help you

You can use threshold to do that.
var bitmap:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap(myPNG);
bitmap.threshold(bitmap, bitmap.rectangle, bitmap.rectangle.topLeft, '',
0x, 0x);
maskClip.attachBitmap(bitmap, 1);
That will turn all pixels with some alpha to red and full alpha.

that would work, thanks!

Hello again, a more difficult question maybe...
Is there any way for me to capture a user click on an href tag inside of
a CSS formatted html text field?
Here is what I do:
- CDATA formatted text in an XML file.
- load it and associate a CSS file to a generated text field at run time.

Hello :)
in actionscript (1 or 2) you can use the notation :
a href=asfunction:myMethod,param1,param2Link/a
In your code... in the parent of your textfield (the parent movieclip), you
can creates the method myMethod
example :
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat(arial, 12) ;
You can use asfunction.
function foo (bar) {
trace (bar);
}
this.createTextField(my_txt, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 200, 100);
my_txt.autoSize = true;
my_txt.html = true;
my_txt.htmlText = a href=\asfunction:foo, Hello Word!\Click Me/a;

What doesn't work? Either method should work fine - but remember you'll need
to use $_REQUEST, or $_GET on the PHP page, since $_POST will only work when
sent from the browser. I'd also suggest looking into AMFPHP, as it just
makes communicating with the server a whole lot easier.

I guess you can also assign function for that. When u click on that link you
can execute a function in which u can set the link and the event can be
dispatched from that function.

Use CDATA for that node inside the XML to make flash recognise everything
you write inside CDATA as html text.
You can even use font size=12 color='#171717'/font or br for new line
etc.
For example ..
