I really don't want to take a step back when I was in fact hoping to be getting a new version of action script that moved the main language even further forward. I feel the same way. I just dislike JS and going from ActionScript to JavaScript is a step back.. a big one. If you know Java, you're in luck 'cos with GWT you can just write Java apps and they get compiled to JS (with html/css) and you still get to use Maven/Spring/Hibernate and do all the OOP stuff and whatnot.

All that adobe needs to do is, start attempting to replace the current JS with AS3. Currently AS3 is a compiled language and JS is an interpreted language. Now can adobe come up with an interpreter for as3?

Hmmm. I doubt that would be possible. The problem has never been with compiling the code as such. Its about how the compiled code is finally used. Since we are going to be replacing / removing the Flash Player from the picture, whether we compile the code on the server end or compile the code on the client end it really doesnt matter.

[flexcoders] Re: hSlider Thumb Skin positions incorrectly

Hi All,
I'm trying to skin the thumb of an hSlider component. Problems:
1) the thumb is resized to be pixelated and grainy.
2) Its position is incorrect. Instead of the new button being cleanly
bisected by the track, it is just below the track, tangential to it. And
(presumably because its registration point is at upper left) when I slide it
all the way to the right, it goes off the end of the track until its left
edge is at the track's right edge. This also messes up calculations for the
hSlider.value property. Here's code for the entire test project:

Re: [flexcoders] You are the product
Hello to you all! Removing Flash Player from the picture, require use a client side technology available in most devices. HTML5 will require, at least, javascript. Since 99 I never really trust javascript because the cross-browser compatibility. Anyone care to illustrate to me what change since then? Do browsers in other devices really stick with one version of javascript? If between browsers, under windows, we don´t got a javascript running without a hole bunch of workarounds, what is the difference for others devices? You don´t wanna flash? I can understand that. But you will need something real to get the juice. You will need RIA. JavaFX can be an option. Silverlight already is, once the win8 got to devices. But none of then will work on iOS. Probably only silverlight will work on win8/metro ( 'will not run plugins... a side the ones from microsoft' ). I will stick with flash/flex for the time being and still waiting on the next best thing involving RIA and Web.

RE: [flexcoders] You are the product
The general consensus is that: a. People hate Flash. ( dont really know why!!! after reading all the HTML 5 vs Flash articles... ) / Developers hate javascript ( atleast the people who like the OOP paradigm! ). b. Developers love AS3. ( Its the next best thing to chocolate! ) / People love nice UI. I agree with those theories, which is why I think hAxe is a promising technology going forward - program in an OOP way very similar to AS3 and yet export to Javascript/HTML5.

Maybe people hate the things we create with Flash, such as heavyweight advertisements you can't easily stop - but that's the programmers fault. Personally, I am interested in educational applications, so AS3 is great: very powerful with amazing potential. Just look at what Away3D manage to do: http://away3d.com/showcase/ LOL, looks beautiful, runs like a dog on my laptop. As you might guess, my laptop is not a current speed machine. Paul Isn't AIR is the obvious choice, and not Flash, when you want avoid browser multiplicity?

[flexcoders] How to set selected text color in Spark TextInput
I'm trying to get Spark TextInputs to look like Halo/MX TextInputs as much as possible, since I have a mix of both in my application. I know I can set the selection background color to black using focusedTextSelectionColor. Using only styles, how can I set the text color itself to white so it matches the MX white on black look? textSelectedColor is apparently not supported.
