RE: [flexcoders] FLV encoder

2006-03-19 Thread Jeff Steiner
I wrote an article on Flix Engine - I loved what it allowed me to do.

I don't have any advice for a linux app that would do the same - but if
you decide to go with Windows - you can't go wrong with Flix Engine.

Hi Ahmed,

Flex can't directly connect to databases
(Oracle,MSSQL,Access,Excel
sheets,etc,etc). 

In Flex you have 3 ways to access data:
Webservices, HTTP services and
RemoteObjects.

This 3 ways are the only available to
retrieve/insert/update/delete data.

If you want to connect to Access database, one way
is to use HTTP
services and point them to some scripting
technology (PHP,ASP???)

When the first data connection kit was available
to flash (before data
components were available) there was a sample application
with ASP
pages that allowed those operations. 

To be honest, why connect Flex to a mdb database? 
I mean, a 15K license to create an application
with a mdb database ...
it's simply odd...

Hi,

I'm new to Flex and have been working over the
last few weeks to 
integrate this product with CF. One of my
central aims is to be able 
to pass data from Flex to a CFC which houses a
query and will return 
a recordset back to Flex. Through piecing
together examples here and 
there, I've figured out how to call the CFC and
send data to it from 
Flex, but I've been unable to figure out how to
display the recordset 
in a Flex datagrid. Any help/examples, best
practices, on how to do 
this would be greatly appreciated. My
existing code follows. The 
query recordset returns two fields. The
error I receive is:

1 Error found. 

Error /FlexToCFC2.mxml:19

RE: [flexcoders] Re: If I buy a flex license can I host other peoples apps on the license?

2005-07-19 Thread Jeff Steiner










It also depends upon the type of
information in the RIA that your team builds. For example, if you are
spending a ton of money for a 3-5 tier setup where everything is load balanced,
but the app is only going to be used a few thousand times a week, you are
probably not going to be saving that much. If you are building an
application where you can show that seconds saved off of a single transaction
saves the company hundreds of thousands of dollars a day you can probably get
away with a bit more  probably.



Just one of those things where a company
may not be wiling to spend $10 to save $1000.

On a slightly different note.

I can tell
you that in our multibillion dollar organization Flex is
most likely
about to be thrown out. We were going to buy something
like 8 or 14
additional licenses to the multitude we already have, and
the pricing
is just totally ridiculous for what we need it for.

Management
is ready to cut their losses and redevelop with something
non-proprietary
and we (the ones that really wanted Flex) have egg on
our faces.

I think we
have come to the point where MM has priced Flex totally out
of the
market.

You are right in saying that it has to be something else - but when I
encountered similar issues - I switched to apache and it has worked just
fine.

Meaning that you have a blank page in your browser - but your URL changes to
?versionChecked=true and if you right clck on the page where the flex app
should be, you see a context menu of a flash app - that just isn't there?

I have seen that on 3 different machines- all running SP2 on XP Pro.  Is
that what you are encountering?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Installing Flex CF. Issues with RemoteObject

2005-06-23 Thread Jeff Steiner










David,



Correct on having Flex installed on your
CF Server (If you are running the integrated version of CF  otherwise this
would be considered Flex on JRun). Your JAVA stuff will work on any instance
of JRun installed. For example  after merging an install of CF / Flex
and JRun you should be able to run .jsp, servlets, cfm, cfc all from the same
directory.

Subject: [flexcoders] Remoting
peformance for large lists





Hi all,
We're having some peformance problems on the
client side when loading
large lists of object graphs through our remoting
inteface. I've
written a simple test case to characterize the
problem (the mxml file
and remote object are attached), and I'm seeing
some behavior I can't
explain. I would appreciate any help anyone
can provide understanding
the problem or providing work-arounds.

The time between the remote method call and the
resultHandler of the
call grows linearly with list size and/or object
size as you'd expect.
We're also seeing a period of time after the
result handler where the
application becomes unresponsive. This is
what I can't explain. This
mystery time increases non-linearly with item
count and seems to
increase greatly when items in the list reference
other objects (even
if they all reference the same instance).
I've traced data from
within the result in the resultHandler, so the
action script objects
seem to be fully serialized by the resultHandler,
so the clients
peformance after the resultHandler doesn't seem to
be directly
hampered by object loading or creation.

The attached graphs show the results of my
tests. In each graph the
time until the result handler is in orange, the
time after the result
handler is green and the sum of the two is blue.

TOP LEFT: Load time per item where each item
contains a map with 5
entries. Note that the mystery time (green)
increases non-linearly,
and (excluding the spikes) the orange increase
linearly.

TOP RIGHT: Load time per item, 10 entries.
The orange lines slope
increases as you'd expect since the size of the objects
have increased
by ~80%. The green line is identical to the
graph of items with 5
entries.

MIDDLELEFT: Load time per item, 20 entries.
Again the orange line's
slope increases as expected. The mystery
time remains the same.

MIDDLE RIGHT: I modified the remoting code to
create a single parent
item and give each item in the list a reference to
it. I then created
a second parent object so that each object would
have a reference to 2
parent objects (but only a single instance of
each). I overlayed the
graphs so that the scales matched (each item had
10 map entries and
the bottom lines are test graphed in the TOP
RIGHT). Note that adding
the one reference increases the mystery time by
nearly 100% and adding
the second reference increases it by 150%.

BOTTOM LEFT: Load time per map item, 1000
items. Holding the items
constant, you can see that the mystery time holds
constant after a
certain point, and the load time (orange)
increases linearly with
object size as expected.

BOTTOM RIGHT: Repeated calls for 0 items.
This is a control to
eliminate the possiblity that multiple calls or
the graphing was
responsible for the slowdown.

Thanks,
Alex

You could also pass it to your mxml file as a

have the variable declared in your root
application. I do something
similar to the following from within a jsp page:

!-- index.jsp --

html
head
titleflex/title

%@ taglib uri=FlexTagLib
prefix=mm /

%
 String ipAddress = null;
 if(
request.getHeader(X-Forwarded-For) == null )
 {
 ipAddress =
request.getRemoteAddr();
 }
 else
 {
 ipAddress =
request.getHeader(X-Forwarded-For);
 }
%

body

 mm:mxml
source=myApp.mxml
 mm:flashvar
name=IP_ADDRESS value=%= ipAddress % /
 /mm:mxml

/body

/html


Be sure to have the variable
IP_ADDRESS declared in the root of your
mxml application.

Hope this helps,

RE: [flexcoders] Digest Number 877

2005-06-12 Thread Jeff Steiner
There is a 'complete' event as part of the package.  This event gets
broadcast when the media has finished playing.  You could set some script to
load the next song when this fires.

Hi,

I'm a beginner to RIA development. I'm trying to develop a music player 
using flex. Currently I load a list of songs in a datagrid. When the user 
clicks an item, the media contoller and player plays the song. I would like 
the player to automatically go to the next song in the grid after the song 
is completed. Can anyone advise on how to approach this.

Thanks

Subject: RE: Re: file handling

Hi,

I guess, that is possible by setting some HTTP headers from a
server-side script. I guess, Content-Disposition header.

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2183


Content-Type - audio/x-mpeg
Content-Disposition - attachment




In PHP, I will do like this:

?php
   //getsong.php
   header('Content-type: audio/x-mpeg');
   header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=song.mp3');

   readfile('song1.mp3');
?


You will request the mp3 through the server-side script, it means you
will not use direct url of  mp3 in flex, instead send a query to a
server-side script...


Does it make sense?

RE: [flexcoders] Auto loading mediaController

2005-06-12 Thread Jeff Steiner










When you say that you change the autoplay
properties to true  where do you mean? In the mxml tag or in the
script that is loading the music file. Also  how are you loading
the media? The medialPlayer.load() loads the media but does not play it.

I tried changing the autoplay properties of the

Any suggestions? I have attached the mxml and

[flexcoders] Need help with protecting FLVs

2005-06-07 Thread Jeff Steiner
Nutshell:  I am working with a handful of FLVs for a tech demo that I am
creating and want to prevent them from being downloaded.  Does anyone have a
good idea about how I can go about doing this?

Longer version: I have encoded FLVs sitting in a web directory (because
contentPath requires a location string), but that also means that a user can
type in the name of the file and download the FLV directly (I get the
download box when I type out the name of the FLV).  I tried putting the
files on a web server inside the firewall, thinking that the Flex server
would somehow magically act as a proxy just for the Flex application.
Worked fine as long as I was sitting inside the firewall ;)

Any ideas would be great!

 Hi Jeff,
 
 You'll probably have to stick the FLV somewhere protected on the server
 (outwith the webapp context, or under WEB-INF, for example) and write a
 servlet to serve them, remembering to set the mime type.
 
 Of course, people could still use the servlet to retrieve the FLV, but
 its
 less of a risk (security through obscurity). If this is a problem, you
 could
 create some sort of session token, created by the server and passed back
 to
 the client, which must then be passed to the servlet to validate.
 
 Cheers,
 
 Ali

[flexcoders] More interesting than Zorn?

2005-06-06 Thread Jeff Steiner
This is directly out of the
http://www.macromedia.com/platform/whitepapers/platform_overview.pdf.

The next major release of Flex, code-named Mistral, will provide an
extensive set of new features.



The class library will be extended with new and improved user interface
components.  An extended effects and skinning infrastructure will make it
even easier to build highly expressive and branded applications.  The Flex
programming model will also leverage new industry standards, suck as E4X
(ECMAScript for XML).  Flex will also provide tight integration with
functional testing tools and support usage analysis of RIAs.



New data services are being added to Flex to support transparent data
persistence across tiers, occasionally connected clients, data
synchronization, a robust data push infrastructure, and paging large
datasets.  The new data services remove the need to write the traditionally
complex and error-prone required to synchronize data between tiers.
Modifications made at the client side can be persisted transparently to the
server.  Combined with existing persistence solutions used at the server
side (like Hibernate and JDO), these services can provide an end-to-end,
client application-to-database, persistence solution.



The new data services also support offline data access: Data modifications
made offline are stored in a persistent data store at the client side, and
are synchronized with the server when the network becomes available.  The
data services will also manage the resolution conflicts to this type of
system where multiple users may attempt to modify the same data at the same
time.

Collaboration is becoming an important aspect of an online experience.  To
enable development of collaborative applications, Flex will support
presence, integration with enterprise instant messaging, and application
sharing.


Also out of the document:


The next major release of Flash Lite, code-named Deuce, except that it will
be based on the Flash Player 7 and will elevate scripting for mobile
applications to a more powerful level with ActionScript 2 support.





I did not see any of this come across the wire today.  Not to take anything
away from the announcement about Zorn, but this is a bit more exciting for
me.  I stumbled upon this document while looking at the new great stuff
today about Flash as a platform.  http://www.macromedia.com/platform/.  Take
a look at the videos and the different PDFs.

 Hi Jamie.

 - Love Flex. Has enabled us non flash developers to build very
 productive and intuitive applications; and in some cases applications
 that weren't even feasible if limited to just HTML and Javascript.

 - The big problem area for enterprise developers (in my opinion) is that
 there's no file upload capability. So if you're building anything
 related to content management it's not so straight forward. There's an
 article on flexauthority.com that has a work-around. The Flex team is
 furiously coding away on Flex 2.0 which will address a lot of the sought
 after wish list items (eg ways of doing certain things faster and
 easier), and taking advantage of new features in the next version of the
 Flash player.

 Hey guys,
 
 A really general question...
 
 We've developed a number of enterprise-style applications here, in
 pure Flash MX 2004 (oh and one of them also uses Firefly a LOT!).
 
 We're considering moving to Flex - particularly to replace the
 Firefly-based app - but generally as the new standard development
 environment.
 
 We had the Macromedia guys over for a talk, demo etc and I've been
 toying with Flex for the past couple of weeks... but obviously my
 experience to this point is very superficial. So far though, I'm
 very impressed and I'm hoping to put my case forward for purchasing
 some Flex licenses shortly... but before I do, I could do with some
 feedback:
 
 My questions are...
 
 Generally, are people happy with the Flex environment ? Are you
 finding it a productive development environment and are you happy
 with the apps you're creating ?
 
 Are there many really nasty 'problem areas' that you're waiting for
 Macromedia to address in a future release that you've found
 impossible - or very hard - to workaround ?
 
 Compared to developing a similar app in Flash, how're you finding
 the development speeds ?
 
 Thanks in advance!

 Jeff,
 
 mx.core.Application.application.setStyle(themeColor, 0xCC) should
 give you some joy...
 
 Unfortunately at runtime you can only change one style at a time, so if
 you're parsing a stylesheet it can be quite strenuous on the client
 machine's processing load, especially if you're changing a style that
 affects numerous components...
 
 Cheers,
 Rich

Craig,

I have a specific example on FlexAuthority.  Visit:

  Your changeThrusts method can simply store which

Subject: [flexcoders] E4X in Flex 2.0, part 1: Reading XML

 

As you may have gathered, we've been spending a lot of time lately
leveraging the new features of the Flash Player in the new Flex
application model. Naturally, you'll also be able to leverage those same
new features, so we thought we'd start giving you a run down of what's
new. Of course we don't have beta software for you to play with yet, so
for now, we'll provide a lot of detail so you can evaluate these new
features and give guidance for us.

 

XML manipulation in Flex 2.0 is going to get a lot more powerful, as
well as faster. By the time that Flex 2.0 ships, the Flash Player will
support E4X (ECMAScript for XML), a set of programming language
extensions adding native XML support to ECMAScript. The player team is
busy implementing Standard ECMA-357 as described in
http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-357.htm.

 

Here's how the spec describes what this feature offers: E4X adds native
XML datatypes to the ECMAScript language, extends the semantics of
familiar ECMAScript operators for manipulating XML objects and adds a
small set of new operators for common XML operations, such as searching
and filtering. It also adds support for XML literals, namespaces,
qualified names and other mechanisms to facilitate XML processing.

 

Lets take a look at a few examples of how you can read XML data using
E4X.

 

As in the current player, you'll be able to create variables of type XML
by parsing a String. But XML literals will now be supported as well:

 

var employees:XML =
employees
employee ssn=123-123-1234
name first=John last=Doe/
address
street11 Main St./street
citySan Francisco/city
stateCA/state
zip98765/zip
/address
/employee
employee ssn=789-789-7890
name first=Mary last=Roe/
address
street99 Broad St./street
cityNewton/city
stateMA/state
zip01234/zip
/address
/employee
/employees;

 

Instead of using DOM-style APIs like firstChild, nextSibling, etc., with
E4X you just dot down to grab the node you want. Multiple nodes are
indexable with [n], similar to the elements of an Array:

 

trace(employees.employee[0].address.zip);

---

98765

 

To grab an attribute, you just use the .@ operator:

 

trace([EMAIL PROTECTED]);
---

789-789-7890

 

If you don't pick out a particular node, you get all of them, as an
indexable list:

 

trace(employees.employee.name);

---

name first=John last=Doe/

name first=Mary last=Roe/

 

(And note that nodes even toString() themselves into formatted XML!)

 

A handy double-dot operator lets you omit the path down into the XML
expression, so you could shorten the previous three examples to

 

trace(employees..zip[0]);

trace([EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]);

trace(employees..name);

 

You can use a * wildcard to get a list of multiple nodes or attributes
with various names, and the resulting list is indexable:

 

trace(employees.employee[0].address.*);

---

street11 Main St./street

citySan Francisco/city

stateCA/state

zip98765/zip

trace([EMAIL PROTECTED]);
---

Doe

 

You don't have to hard-code the identifiers for the nodes or
attributes... they can themselves be variables:

 

var whichNode:String = zip;
trace(employees.employee[0].address[whichNode]);

---

98765

 

var whichAttribute:String = ssn;
trace([EMAIL PROTECTED]);
---

789-789-7890

 

A new for-each loop lets you loop over multiple nodes or attributes:

 

for each (var ssn:XML in [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] )

{

trace(ssn);

}

---

123-123-1234
789-789-7890

 

Most powerful of all, E4X supports predicate filtering using the
syntax .(condition), which lets you pick out nodes or attributes that
meet a condition you specify using a Boolean expression. For example,
you can pick out the

 Looks pretty neat!  I didn't get the purpose of the first accordion
 pane though.  It just shows a map, but you can't interact with it (am
 I missing something?).  Normally if I see a map and a zipcode field, I
 expect that clicking the map would auto-fill the zipcode for me.

 I've got a question concerning maintenance, maybe someone from MM can
comment:

 we bought Flex 1.5 two months ago. When our maintenance period ends and we
decide to extend the maintenance will the price for the new maintenance be
based on the original price (12k) or the product's price at that moment in
time?

 According to what Ian just wrote I would expect the first, is this right?

 Thanks,
 Dirk.

  PS One bit of good news - annual maintenance is based on
  the price you paid for the product, so getting it at the
  'old' price means we pay less for maintenance in future years.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 1.5 price

2005-03-31 Thread Jeff Steiner

My guess is that you will be back.

Lazslo, while the samples look great, is still based upon Flash player 5
(Beta 3 of Lazslo is player 6).  It is one of those things where you have to
wonder - how does Lazslo know what to extend of the Flash Player.  The
people that are contributing to it make guesses and try to extend the
capabilities as far as they can, but they are still limited in their
knowledge.  I have never seen an API to the Flash player made readily
available to the public.  Also - as the Flash Player gets more complicated
it will become more difficult to code hooks into the player to give
developers the same functionality that is provided by Flex, and Breeze, and
Flash, 

This really goes for all the competing technologies out there that are doing
their best to output as a swf.  MM is doing something right - they hold all
the cards to the most widely accepted piece of downloaded content on the
web.  My guess is that they still have a few aces up their sleeves and that
they will always be the power to beat (as long as the continue to devote
their company's future to flash).

I am also guessing that MM was prepared for this backlash - but as future
iterations come out, and they show more and more of the fun stuff that they
want to give us non-flash developers the ability to extend, Everyone that
decided ~now to give Laszlo, et. al., a look will come back to the Flex
world to see what they missed.

 We've seen a fair number of people prototyping with Flex but few deploying

Internationalization will likely make prototyping the only thing we ever do
with Flex even though we have purchased it.

 Frankly, we are considering contributing time/effort to Laszlo.

 -- Original message -- 

 Surely the fact the price is going up means that it is not selling well
(and possibly the whole RIA scene is not as widespread as you are led to
believe).  If Flex was booming the costs would come down allowing more users
to adopt and Flex to continue to thrive.

 I would be interested to see how many people actually have purchased Flex
and are using it with Gusto - I bet it is not as widespread as it's made out
to be.

 Lucian,

 4 CPUs and Gold Support for $29,000. That's actually cheaper
 than Flex was in the past for 4 CPUs + Gold Support.

 It's like going to the car dealer ship and the guy tells me that the Lexus
SUV is the only new base model...but don't worry...that it's still cheaper
than buying 2 Lexus Sedans... lol!

 Finally, for software vendors who want to embed Flex in their
applications, we have special pricing built around your requirements and
your market. However, and this is important, where you see value in Flex, we
are interested in working with you to design the right packaging for your
needs. If you are interested in using Flex on a real project, let us know so
we can work with you and find the right packaging/pricing to fit your needs.

 It's clear for me that MM have this price for the big fishs... Small fishs
like many of us needs to negociate with the sales contact and see how much
might cost... I'm affraid that can't beat 12k/2 CPUs... that was still
considered expensive by many potential users...

 I'm sure that soon the RIA - market will cool off a bit and MM will come
back with special discounts, etc.

Re: [flexcoders] Deploying Flex Applications

2005-03-18 Thread Jeff Steiner
I will take a shot at answering some of your questions.

The Flex app (SWF) is cached by default on the client. This is assuming
that the client has caching enabled. If your application has been cached on
a client machine - the next time they visit your site a small time/date
check is executed to verify that the client is running the latest and
greatest version of your Flex app. No changes to your application = does
not download it again.

I believe that I understand your question about serving data from a
different machine than is serving the Flex applications. Simply point your
applications to the dataproviders - there is no limitation that says your
datasource (RO / HTTPService / WebService) has to reside on your Flex
server.

Cookies question has been answered - but for any newcomers, check out
SharedObjects.

We use BigIP for production machines where I work. I have had no issues
hiding my Flex servers behind a VIP.

Let me know if I can help you firther,

To answer your second question, check out
www.flexauthority.com/samplesIndex.cfm on the Beginner tab and select the
mx:CheckBox - Check All / Uncheck All sample to see if that answers your

 Hi all,

 I am new to Flex and Actionscript, and only started prototyping for our
new project (a UI application on a J2EE server) a week ago. It's been a fun
learning this technology and the Cairngorm framework does present a very
neat framework that suits our purpose well.

 However I've come across two small problems.could someone please point
me in the right direction (I'm using Developer Edition of Flex 1.5):

 1. I have a button whose face is completely occupied by a .gif image. When
the button is disabled, it is expected that the image will be grayed out in
addition to having a flat appearance. Do I need to swap the image file
references whenever the image is enabled/disabled, or is there a better way
of achieving the same effect in Flex?

 2. Another button I have is meant to be a toggle button so I used the
syntax:
 mx:Button label=Is toggle=true selected=true /
 But this does not have the toggled effect - it looks exactly the same
whether I set toggle property to true or not. I thought it should be quite
straightforward so please suggest what's my blindspot!


 Thank you in advance.

Flex, in and of itself, does not truly have the ability to add, edit or

those actions.

Check out some of the samples in the Flex Explorer on Macromedia's web site

Re: [flexcoders] Dynamic URL for HTTPService

Tracy is right, but there is an easier way.

Change your HTTPService tag to look like this:

mx:HTTPService id=srv url=installation.jsp
mx:request
ID{nameOf}/ID
/mx:request
/mx:HTTPService

You can still reference the srv ID from AS and call it elsewhere in your
app. But now - when you call srv it will append ID to the querystring and
add nameOf as the value to that variable.

Give that a go.

 I don't think you can bind in the query string like that. Instead you
 will want to manipulate the request object:
 var oRequest:Object = new Object({id:nameOf});
 srv.send(oRequest);

 There is a full example on www.cflex.net at the end of the beginner tips
 section.

 Subject: [flexcoders] Dynamic URL for HTTPService



 I have a drop down, populated and want to use the change event to
 populate the httpservice url parameter which will also fire off
 another httpservice.

 I have this:

 mx:Script
 ![CDATA[
 var nameOf = ;
 function custChange(event)
 {
 nameOf = cusBox.data;
 srv.send();
 }
 ]]
 /mx:Script
 mx:HTTPService id=srv url=installation.jsp?id='{nameOf}'/
 mx:HTTPService id=cust url=cus.jsp/
 mx:HBox
 mx:VBox
 mx:ComboBox id=cusBox
 dataProvider={cust.result.list.customer} change=custChange
 (event)/mx:ComboBox
 /mx:VBox
 mx:Panel title='{nameOf}' Installation List width=515
 height=350
 mx:DataGrid id=dg dataProvider={srv.result.list.installation}
 width=500 height=255
 mx:columns
 mx:Array
 mx:DataGridColumn columnName=postcode
 headerText=Post Code width=100/
 mx:DataGridColumn columnName=manufacturer
 headerText=Manufacturer width=100/
 mx:DataGridColumn columnName=model
 headerText=Model width=100/
 mx:DataGridColumn columnName=location
 headerText=Location width=200/
 /mx:Array
 /mx:columns
 /mx:DataGrid

 How can I use the data element of the combobox to properly populate
 the httpservice parameter and fire off the request and also use it
 to populate the Title of the Panel??

 Thanks in Advance.

 PS: Stupid Question, but if my data returned in the httpService has
 some silly characters in the nodes such as '' it also fails. Why?

   Not really an answer, but perhaps a pointer for you (or MM) to

   If the combo box is editable, then backgroundColor can be set; as

 try:
   
   ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? mx:Application

   When I looked into this a bit last year, I played about with setting
  color
   styles on the combo box's textField property (the display part of
  the combo)
   and even text_mc (the physical TextInput exposed as textField), and
  although
   it works slightly differently, still doesn't do anything when the

  '#ff' );
   dataProvider={ [ 'a', 'b' ] } /
   
   /mx:Application
   
   The ability to set the background color wasn't really needed by
 us, so 
   I didn't investigate long.

 What exactly is the format of the data in result? If result works with a
 datagrid then you must have an array of three elements each containing
 an Item.

 So you should be able to do:
 ...result[0].myColumnName //item.property
 ...result[1].myColumnName
 ...result[2].myColumnName

 If you have to navigate through the result to make the dtagrid work,
 then that should be the start of the array:
 ..result.DATA[0].myColumnName

Isaac,

Are we to understand that the XML filename changes and that you are trying
to compile the result into the swf at compile time, or are you, for
example,
passing a querystring variable to a dynamic page which results in dynamic
XML?

mx:Model and mx:XML tags grab the XML at compile time and store it in the
compiled swf.

mx:HTTPService does not store the actual file but rather stores a url that
the swf uses at runtime to grab xml dynamically.

Does that answer your question?

Hi,

You can't use Model to load XML on runtime. It works at compile time...

However, you can use HTTPService object to load xml dynamically at runtime.
Please search the flexcoders archive, this question has been discussed

Also check out Flex documentation for HTTPService.

After the install you need to whitelist the local server to allow it to run

Look inside your flex directory for flex-config.xml and scan through for the
whitelist tag inside http-service.

There are some examples there that you see what to add.

If this does not answer your question, please copy the error text and I will

 * Clicking and dragging will still pop up a menu... I'm going to work 
 on a fix at my next convenience... any hints as to an elegant solution 
 would be appreciated as I just noticed it tonight.
 * Sometimes clicking and then quickly clicking somewhere else causes 
 the menu code to fail. Not sure why.
 * Source code will be available later on... I still feel I have a lot 
 of work to do before I'm willing to publish it (at the very least a ton 
 of documentation needs to be put in. I'm thinking of trying NaturalDocs 
 on it.)
 
 Okay... please give me your feedback, bug reports, etc... I'm looking 
 to make this a solid package for open release.
 
 Thanks,
 Seth

As somone put it to me a while back - Welcome to the world of effects...

This is normal behavior. Embedded fonts are required for effects.

 Hi
 
 I would like to do some effects like fadein-fadeout on a chart.
 I found that if the fonts are embedded, then things are working alright.
 However, if I am not using embedded fonts, it does not work.
 Any idea? Or is this a normal behaviour?
 
 Wilfred
