RE: [flexcoders] Flash Player 9 and old scripts

2006-06-27 Thread Matt Horn
I think fscommand() still works (googling for it will yield plenty of
info). setVariable() and getVariable() only worked with one of the major
browsers, IIRC. There's also the Flex-AJAX bridge
(http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Framework:FABridge).

 Is ExternalInterface the only way to communicate with the SWF 
 from/to JavaScript?
 
 Does SetVariable/GetVariable and other commands work with 
 Flash Player 9?
 
 Will old scripts bail with updated content?

Re: [flexcoders] Flash Player 9 and old scripts

2006-06-27 Thread Derek Vadneau



Thanks Matt.

I probably should have been more specific - my needs are IE-only so
that's why I asked about SetVariable/GetVariable. I thought they worked
in Netscape/Mozilla as well, but I could be wrong.

The FABridge looks really good. I'm thinking that's the way to go.
Seems like a lot of code implemented to replace SetVariable and
GetVariable, though.

One more: am I responsible to encode/escape the data or will
FABridge/ExternalInterface handle that? The ExternalInterface call
bundles everything up as XML, correct? Does the data need to be escaped
if I were to use invalid XML characters?
