As far as the PHP side of things goes, there are functions already 
built-in for that. You can read about it here:

http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/spellchecking.php

You could call php to do the spell check every so and so seconds or 
after every space or with a button... Really depends on what you want. 
As for the backwards looping use String.lastIndexOf(' '). For the 
formatting take a look at setTextFormat.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: SEO Compatibility

Saying you shouldn't use Flex for content-focused website is going a 
little bit over the edge IMHO. I think we all definitely agree that for 
100% content-focused sites, you should use HTML, and for 100% 
data-focused sites, you should use Flex. However in between those 
extremes, you can still use Flex and get your data indexed. For example, 
if you're going to create a blog in Flex, you are probably going to use 
some sort of ready-made blogging engine and plug it into a Flex 
front-end, using whatever means you feel are right (for example, using 
XML-RPC if you're using WordPress). Well, blogging engines create RSS 
feeds, and Google will index an RSS feed just fine. Then it's a matter 
of adding a link to the RSS feed in the HTML for the Flex app. Similarly 
if you create a message board. While I'm not convinced creating a blog 
or a message board interface in Flex is smart (I would advise against it 
personally), if you want to do it, you have options for getting it indexed.

You don't have to sound angry when you're talking about it. It just 
sounds like you're trying to say "PEOPLE, DON'T USE SCREWDRIVERS, YOU 
CAN'T DRIVE NAILS WITH THEM". Dude, that's why we have hammers.

[flexcoders] Spell Checker

2006-12-15 Thread jmfillman

I've seen the Component on the Flex Exchange, and it's not going to 
meet my needs, primarily because my app won't always have an internet 
connection to use the Google API. Also, I need the custom dictionary 
to be in my DB so users have access to it regardless of what PC they 
are using.

So, I'm asking for some advice and ideas on creating my own Spell 
Check feature using PHP and MySQL.

I've been thinking about this in theory, and here are my initial 
questions where I would like feedback.

Do I call a remoteObject after every keystroke to compare against a 
database table of words or do I wait until all the fields are filled 
out and then have the user click a button to Spell Check the fields? 
Maybe both?

How efficient is this going to be with say 100,000 words in the word 
list to check against?

What about integrating a PHP spell checking function?

How do I loop backward until I find a space so I am only checking the 
last word?

How to allow the user to add words not in the standard dictionary to 
their custom table, from where they are in the application?

How do I then set the style of the last word to red underline, change 
the text color, or some other visual representation to note an 
incorrect word?

If using a Spell Check button, I'd like to change the tab color to a 
different color, if there are spelling mistakes in fields on that 
tab. I'd also like to highlight fields where there are spelling 
mistakes.

2006-12-15 Thread Doug McCune

How about this one as an example: the Adobe Restaurant Finder sample 
app, with the "Recent Reviews" page in particular. The app is here: 
http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/inproduct/sdk/restaurant/recentReviews.html

If you look at that app you can see user submitted reviews of 
restaurants. For example, there's a review of Addis Red Sea and the 
reviewer mentions E. Coli in the review. If anyone did a search for 
"Addis Red Sea" and "E Coli" this page would never come up. The only 
possible way to get the site to appear in search results would be to 
publish an alternative HTML version of all the reviews.

And in fact a complete Google search for everything on 
examples.adobe.com shows that you can't find anything useful: 
http://www.google.com/search?q=site:examples.adobe.com+&hl=en&lr=&filter=0

Yes, the Restaurant Finder app wrapper HTML page is indexed, but that's 
useless.

Now, a Google search for "ecoli" on Yelp turns up tons of user-submitted 
results: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=site%3Ayelp.com+ecoli

The Yelp team would never give that up. They simply can't do Yelp in 
Flex because they'd lose the search engine indexing. Now, I'm not saying 
that this is a huge problem. All it means is that at the moment Flex is 
not the answer for many websites. That's OK, Flex is still great at what 
it does well. But if you want any of your dynamic content indexed by

indexed by a search engine simply isn't an option at the moment.

And this "example" of the restaurant review stuff is a typical example 
of tons of other types of websites that shouldn't be done in Flex. 
Blogs, news sites, message boards, the list goes on and on. But if 
you're doing some stuff that needs data visualization or you can do

I think in the body of his message in the next paragraph down from where you

the problem that is faced. You proceeded to quote him and *not* quote
exactly what you are asking for. Its funny but your additional response is
almost humorous in its manner of highlighting his very good point about the

Re: [flexcoders] is there a sample to update/delete records in a database server through webservice?

Steven,

I know you had first posted on this 10 days ago, but it just came to my
attention that Flex with .NET and Web Services is covered in the following
online training:

Flex 2 Beyond the Basics with: David Gassner
http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=290
 11. Working with .NET

If you do not already have an account with Lynda.com, you can get a 1 day
free pass here:
http://www.lynda.com/freepass/24

It looks like the training at the link above only cover retrieving data, but
once you have that all working extending it to do insert, update and delete
should be fairly straight forward.

Please post back and let us know if you have your Flex/.NET/database
configuration working.

[flexcoders] sum of vertical column of datagrid

2006-12-15 Thread bhousel28

Hello all,

I have seen many examples of taking items within a single row in a 
datagrid and performing calculations on those items to then create a 
new column to display the result total (ex: Item1 + Item2 - Item3 * 
Qty = Result in new column).

I was wondering if someone might be able to post up some sample code 
to be able to show an easy way to display the sum of all items in a 
single column only and take that total to display in a text label for 
example.

In my situation I have a datagrid with two columns pulling in the 
following data:
Column1: Region (text format)
Column2: Millions ($number.xx format)

I want to have Flex add all the $number.xx values in Column2 and be 
able to pass that result to a text label which is placed under the 
datagrid. If there is a way to add a fixed row to the bottom of the 
datagrid to show this result, that would be awesome as well, but not 
sure if that's possible or not.

I am currently using myDataGrid.dataProvider.length to get a total 
count of how many records there are in the datagrid which seems to 
work well. Just wondering if something similar can be done to get the 
sum of all the items in Column2.

Thanks for taking the time to look at this post and any 
help/suggestions you might be able to provide.

Re: [flexcoders] NetConnection.Call.BadVersion

That's because you're getting a fatal error from PHP, and therefore the 
output from php is not valid amf. You can either point to 
debuggateway.php instead (if you're using amfphp 1.2), or you can 
install Charles debugging proxy or ServiceCapture to read the error, or 
you can call your service from the service browser, which can read fatal 
errors properly.

[flexcoders] More control on datagrid

2006-12-15 Thread Sandeep Malik

Hi Guys,

Is there a way to get more control on a datagrid? We need to paint 
certain cells with different color and do some other similar stuff. I 
am not able to find any method which gives me a control on a "cell" of 
a datagrid. I know since DataGrid extends from a ListBase, there might 
just not be a possible way to do this, but if someone has found any 
work around, it will be of great help.

Cheers,
Sandeep

Well sure, but what if you want to put 100s of pages in a Flex or Flash 
app (like a message board or blog).

I guess I already knew the answer, but I was hoping there was a better one.

To put it in terms of MVC, if a Flex app is the View and Controller to 
the server's Model, I guess you would need to develop a second View and 
Controller for the Flashless clients like Googlebot and even regular 
Flashless users. That is, you'd need to make some HTML pages that 
display this information to be indexed, even if it is ugly, vanilla 
HTML. I suppose if you wanted the traffic to go to your Flex or Flash 
app, you could use a bit of JavaScript on each page (that google would 
ignore) to detect for Flash, then use location.replace to move the 
visitor to the appropriate place in your Flex or Flash app.

I'd love to see a standard model for this kind of thing, and would be 
willing to help build a library or set of tools to accomplish it. It'd 
go nicely with unFocus.History (and would be quite useful for some 
upcoming projects I'll be working on soon ;-) ).

Anyone have any info to share, or have any time to spend on this kind of 
project (even if all it really is is a collection of ideas and 
suggestions for how to accomplish this)? :-)

[flexcoders] Re: FDS - class cast exception - lazy loading relationship

2006-12-15 Thread thunderstumpgesatwork

Jeff, I did find one bi-directional that was lazy=false on both sides.
This was not the relationship that caused the error however. 

Looking over the lazy attributes on all my destinations however, I did
find one typo on a lazy=true relationship that was pointing to the
wrong destination, and after correcting the destination this error has
gone away. Would this problem manifest itself in the exception trace
below?

Anyway, a cryptic exception for an error that was my fault.. oh well.
 Thanks for your help yet again!

RE: [flexcoders] To Remote Call or Not To Remote Call in Cairngorm

2006-12-15 Thread Brian Holmes

 Yeah, I understand the creation complete event, and it doesn't always
work for what I'm trying to accomplish. For data that's fairly static,
such as a list of departments that's used in a lot of different views, I
want to get the data once. I could do it at the top level,
 tag, but the user may never click on a screen that
needs the department list, so I don't want to go to the server for it
just because it may be needed.

Use a creationComplete event on each sub-view to fetch data for that

creationComplete only gets fired on the first show of a component.

Re: [flexcoders] How to embed and play video formats in Flex components?


Hi Tom,

"Because why?"

First, if you can make sense out of the post please don't be bothered by
me.  Rather, please do assist Kaushik.

And if Flex components do have direct support for embedding PPT and PPS I
would love to learn about it.  Same if others here have a PPT/PPS embedding
solution they would like to share.

Personally I am going to wait for my friend Kaushik to offer further detail
on his requirement before I concern myself further with this thread.  I do
have paying work to do.

Regarding what is and isn't spam, my personal emails have been getting
overrun lately and increasingly the spammers are defeating the spam filters
at my host services.  So I hate to say this, but I have been seeing a lot
more spam gibberish than I would like.  And Kaushik's post struck me as
possible spam.  Yes, he posted on the FlexCoders list, and yes his post has
Flex in the subject line.  In the message body he may have misspelled Flex,
but the four letters F-L-E-X appear now where in the body. And PPT and PPS
are not video formats.

Ok.  Now I really do need to get back to writing code :-)

I hope that you will have a great weekend.

Hi guys,
this is my first post to the list, so please don't be too hard on me.
I'm pretty new to flex, but an old hand and at CF. I just stumbled on
some strange behaviour that I thought would be worth running by you all.
It's more of an observation rather than a question.

I have a flex app that's accessing a cold fusion cfc via flash remoting
and it all works beautifully. The only problem is that on one of my
methods I mistakenly set the access modifier to public and it still
works.. wierd hey. I'm pretty sure it should reject the request unless
the access is set to remote. :)

Has anyone seen this before?

And in case you are real, yes video is supported directly using FLV.  Again,

Re: [flexcoders] Setting the titleIcon at runtime, knowing the path of the icon image

2006-12-15 Thread Michael Schmalle


Hi,

One,

titleIcon is not a style, it's a property.

Two,

It's of type Class, so this means you have to embed the icon.

Three,

You cannot in this incarnation of Flex dynamically load an icon into the
titleIcon slot.

Peace, Mike

The only workaround I see is create an assets class that embeds the icons,
use your xml to call the name of the property in that embeded class library
and set the titleIcon through that reference.


var iconName:String = [EMAIL PROTECTED];

var icon:Class = MyIconLibrary.getIcon(iconName);
titleWindow.titleIcon = icon;

Peace, Mike

What's the problem? and more important how can I solve it? (is it

Hi Thijs,

[flexcoders] Setting the titleIcon at runtime, knowing the path of the icon image

2006-12-15 Thread pitziilu

I have this xml for example:


for every  I will add a TitleWindow to the Application, and I
need to set the titleIcon property. I tried it this way:

var iconSource:String = 'url("' + [EMAIL PROTECTED] + '")';
myTitleWindow.setStyle("titleIcon", iconSource);

even if I try to set it manually :
myTitleWindow.setStyle("titleIcon", 'url("myIcon.gif")' );
it doesn't work..
(I know it's not the path.. the path to the image is good, the method
is wrong)

What's the problem? and more important how can I solve it? (is it
because myIcon.gif is not loaded when I set the style?

thank you

Hi,

Please let us know how we can embed video formats,ppt(power pont 
presentation) and pps formats in Filex components. If it is not 
supported directly then let me know the way I can do that. Any example 
will be very helpful.

No, I don't think so, Flex will only work with AS3 as far as I know.

[flexcoders] Re: Connect to FB2 Debugger from SDK compiled swf

2006-12-15 Thread cluebcke

Thanks Bjorn,

To be honest, in my case it turns out I was just being a dunce. What I
needed to do was edit my run/debug configuration, under the Main tab
in the "URL to path to launch". Somehow I saw that a good dozen times
before I thought, "Hmmm, maybe I should use a URL instead of the
default file:///blah path." Sure enough, I unchecked "Use default",
replaced file:///blah with http://localhost:8080/blah, and everything
was groovy once more. Well, actually had another issue that I finally
sovled which I'll post seperatedly for the benefit of my fellow dunces.

[flexcoders] Unused tags in found?

2006-12-15 Thread Dirk Eismann

I've created a simple Java class which implements
flex.messaging.FlexConfigurable. This works nicely and the initialize
methid gets invoked as expected.

However, if I place additional properties inside the remoting-config.xml
for this RemoteObject the instantiation fails and I end up with Flex
errors about "Unused tags in  found?". Is this not
supported?

eg. my destination looks like this


  

TestService
application


Hello!


  


and inside the initialize() method I want to query the ConfigMap passed
in for the /custom/test property.

Dirk.

[flexcoders] Re: Database Connectivity - Why so hard?

2006-12-15 Thread Jamie O

Hey,

I looked through the pages but did not try the sample. My $0.02 on
code generators has always been that once you understand the entirety
of the code languages you are working with, they can be a great way to
save time and effort. But early in the learning process they tend to
cause one more harm then help as you don't grasp a lot of the W's
(where, what, why) the assisting elements are doing for you. This can
make debugging a bigger challenge, and integration of this to a more
vanilla approach can be quite cumbersome.

The same holds true for me with Flex / backend technologies...I'd like
to understand all the elements that code generator produces and be
able to produce them myself. I have made some headway in that
department using AMFPHP as the remote object gateway, PHP to make the
SQL calls to a mySQL database. I put a blog post together covering the
initial efforts and results I got:

[flexcoders] Re: Date Fields and Data Binding.

2006-12-15 Thread cardinalflexjeremy

I did and that worked. 

I knew the problem could not be as hard as it was turning out to be. 

The problem was I was being asked to help with another co workers
problem. He had in one place the value from the model bound to the
text attribute, but the selectedDate was bound back to the model using
the  tag. Since I only saw the selectedDate, I figured since
he was having a problem, and was using that attribute, I focus on the
other attributes for the field. That was my problem. 

Thanks for your help.

[flexcoders] NetConnection.Call.BadVersion

2006-12-15 Thread Cameron Ray

I'm getting some troubs from Flex using AMFPHP remoting.  I'll try to  
make this as brief as possible.  I'm receiving the dreaded  
"NetConnection.Call.BadVersion".


It's a simple login service to check a username & password against  
the mySQL DB.  It works fine if I don't try to encrypt the password  
using the mcrypt module.  Unfortunately, I NEED to use this  
encryption module so that existing users can login using this app.   
I've tried about every way I know howstill having problems.  I'll  
post the code belowplease let me know if there's any ideas:


### START CODE

class VLlogin {

function VLlogin()
{
$this->methodTable = array (
"login" => array (
"description" => "Logs into Vidego Lite!",
"arguments" => array("uName", "pWrd"),
"access" => "remote"),
"encryptText" => array(
"description" => "Encrypts pwd",
"arguments" => array("$someText"),
"access" => "remote")
);
}

function encryptText($someText) {

		$encrypted_data = mcrypt_encrypt($alg, $EnCRYPTEdSECRETkEY,  
$someText, $mode, $iv);

$plain_text = base64_encode($encrypted_data);
return $plain_text;
}

function login($uName, $pWrd) {


$db_name = dbConnectValues::$database;
$server = dbConnectValues::$dbserver;
$username = dbConnectValues::$username;
$password = dbConnectValues::$password;


$fuser = $uName;
$fpwd = $pWrd;

//$fpwd = base64_encode(base64_encode($fpwd));
$fpwd = encryptText($fpwd);

		$connection = @mysql_connect($server,$username,$password) or die 
("Cound not connect to database.");
		mysql_select_db($db_name, $connection) or die("Could not select  
database.");



		$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$fuser' AND password  
= '$fpwd'";


$result = mysql_query($sql);
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($result);

if ($numRows > 0) {

Ok, a night of sleep and your comments cleared things up. I have the

What I did is just put in return statements after each assignment

[flexcoders] FYI: If your breakpoints ain't breaking, this may be why

2006-12-15 Thread cluebcke

Not sure how many folks may have hit this, but I thought I'd share my
experiences for the record. First off, there are a few different cases
where breakpoints might not get called in your app; at least one bug
around this has been fixed in 2.0.1, but in my case it boiled down to
something between user error and Flex builder letting me do something
it shouldn't have.

I'm working on an enterprise J2EE application, and I felt it would be
a bit presumptious to have my application file in the top folder and
my source underneath there starting with "com", when everybody else is
happy regulating themselves to such folders as "src", "db", "docs",
etc. So instead I made a "flex" folder and moved my application and
source tree under it. Being at least not a complete dimwit (no
comments, please), I went into my run/debug profile and re-selected my
application file, in its new folder, in the Application File dropdown.
I was concerned that FB might not pick up the source, but you know
what? It compiled and ran perfectly.

Until I tried to set a breakpoint.

Turns out I did the right thing in a completely wrong way and probably
had Mike Morearty banging his head on his keyboard (see the support
thread here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=60&catid=582&threadid=1203605&enterthread=y
). He couldn't believe my app was running at all; the reason he was
perplexed was because, in my project properties -> build path, the
"Main source folder" was empty. I didn't empty it ought myself, of
course--I'm not masochistic. I don't know if it was always empty or
just got that way because I was being naughty. Apparently the builder
will assume, at least if the source path is empty, that your source
path is the same folder as your application file. But apparently the
debugger will not, and it therefore never sees your app get to the
breakpoint because it has no source associated with it. I made the
correct entry for source path and, voila, back in business.

Anyway, just wanted to share the experience in case it can help
somebody else down the road.

Cheers,
Chris Luebcke
