I have been trying to extract information from this file on YouTube using AS3. I have managed to access ytID (YouTube video ID) along with the ytName (YouTube video name) from a specific channel (called through the loader). I am stumped on how to get the thumbnail URL. I have managed to find out that through YouTube, its tag is media:thumbnail, however, Flash gives me an error for trying to use a semicolon.

Is it possible to trace the path a symbol takes and create a shape(or shapes that appear as a tracing)? Very Simple example: The letter C, without serifs. Basically an arc. I would like the C to be "drawn" in the animation. I hope to simply motion tween along the C and trace it's path. I did a shape tween, and wasn't happy with the results. Plus complex paths would be very hard to shape tween.

I am looking to create the appearance of a shape being drawn. I need a few shapes, but for the example think of a simple U. I have tried several different approaches. First, I tried a shape tween at 45 degree increments. That was a wrong approach. Then I tried using After Effects, but the movies lacked flexibility and were laggy. Currently I am building the shapes using two shape tween MCs(an arc that goes 11.25 degrees and a line that goes 21px), and repeating it.
This seems to be working, but is very tedious, and lacks flexibility. i.e. if I decided I want the shape just a bit shorter I have to remove the MC incident from every frame. Also I have no possiblity of changing the speed without completely rebuilding the shape becasue I'm doing a frame by frame animation.

The ultimate goal is to create a dynamic slideshow with a variable length, depending on how many pics were submitted by the user. Since the associative array object returned by loadVars does not share the "length" property of indexed arrays, my guess is that the values need to be converted into a new indexed array before being able to use them in the slideshow.

Is there a way to extract a single file from a zip file in Adobe AIR?
I'm using NoChumps zip library to extract files from a zip. In this library the entire IDataStream is loaded into memory and after that you can extract file entries easily. In cases where the zip is 5 to 10MB there are no problems. But when the zip is 80MB, which many are, 80MB is loaded into memory. This causes the app to crash and run slow on mobile devices. According to the zip specification,
"A ZIP file is identified by the presence of a central directory located at the end of the file, this allows appending of new files. The directory stores a list of the names of the entries (files or directories) stored in the ZIP file, along with other metadata about the entry, and an offset into the ZIP file, pointing to the actual entry data."
Also, I do not have control of the size of zip files but most average is 60 to 100MB. Files inside are ~4MB.

What is the easiest way to programmatically extract structured data from a bunch of web pages? I am currently using an Adobe AIR program I have written to follow the links on one page and grab a section of data off of the subsequent pages. This actually works fine, and for programmers I think this(or other languages) provides a reasonable approach, to be written on a case by case basis. Maybe there is a specific language or library that allows a programmer to do this very quickly, and if so I would be interested in knowing what they are.
Also do any tools exist which would allow a non-programmer, like a customer support rep or someone in charge of data acquisition, to extract structured data from web pages without the need to do a bunch of copy and paste?

I would like to construct a RegExp/Actionscript3 statement/routine that will do the following:
1. Locate the link containing the favicon. Note that there can be many <link>s in the <head> so I am looking for the one that specifically includes the : <link rel="shortcut icon" ...favicon.ico">,
2. Most favicons are in the ".ico" format, but I have seen favicons that are .png and .gif formats. The next step is to save the .ico in a .png format

I know
insideInput = String(xmlNode.childNodes[0].attributes.insider)
virusTarget = insideInput.indexOf("kz", [17]);
endTarget = insideInput.indexOf(".", [virusTarget+2]);
trace("VTTT"+virusTarget)
trace("ET"+ endTarget)
//endTarget = local.indexOf(".", ["vitesting"]);
clipTarget = virusTarget+3;
zebra = insideInput.substring(clipTarget, endTarget);
trace(zebra)

I'm trying to trace the path of an object by using setPixel on the object's position every frame in a BitmapData/Bitmap pairing. These pixels aren't showing up normally and I suspect I have a fundamental misunderstanding of the BitmapData class. Here's what I'm doing:
public var contrailBase:BitmapData;
public var contrail:Bitmap;
private var contrailColor:uint;[code].....
Using this code, the red pixels don't show up. If I initialize contrailBase to 0xFF000000 instead then I get a black screen on which the red pixels DO draw, but I need the bitmap to be transparent except for the contrail. What am I doing wrong?

I am trying to extract images from flash on the following web-site: [URL]
I noticed that every time I click on "Next image", an images is requested from sever. Sample URL is [URL]
So, this URL is exactly what I need, but I don't know how to extract all these URLs from the .swf file I have. I don't have any experience with flash, but I think that URLs should be in the .swf file. I tried "grep '110206os_o_003_T1C1_2pw26' adspage_slider-2.swf", but didn't get any result :(((

I want to extract a video from an swf file and make from it a video to load to youtube(I lost the origianl videos).
The swf was created with flash 5-8(not sure which. how can I check if it is importent?).
When I looked at the source(I don't have the fla) with Sothink SWF Quicker I could export the sound but not the video.
What I did see was that the video was without sound(wierd but true).

converting a Sound object into a WAV file (bytearray).

I'm widely surprised for not having found an example of it working on the web

I am trying to trace some XML Data. I used a URLLoader and once load is complete, I try to trace back the XML Data. I can trace the entire file
trace(xmlData);
but if I try to trace a specific node, I get nothing in my trace
trace(xmlData.captions);
What could I be doing wrong? All tutorials I've seen make this seem so straight forward, but it's just not working for me?
//////EDIT////here is the question clarified.
protected var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
public var xmlData:XML = new XML();
