How can I view CSS style sheet on a website online? I know how to view the html source code, but how can I see the Css style sheet without knowing the name of the file? I'm asking because I'm taking classes in css and I want to learn how people make things with css. [URL]

I am at uni and have a project to create an interactive game for the story Johnny Mnemonic. I would like to create a game whereby the player has a whip type weapon, there is an opponent jumping up and down and with the whip you attack them and cut off limbs -
I'm thinking it would be like a simple shooting ducks style game in terms of coding, the player has visible just a hand with the whip in it, you move the whip to your desired location click chosen button to hit, the whip then animates a flick, if it hits correct spot on bouncing opponent then an animation of the limb flying off happens, so the bouncing opponent is like the duck and the whip like the gun - if that is right at all?
How to create a youtube style video player?
starting with flv1 playing
when it finishes we have buttons to go to 2 other flv files
clicking a button plays flv2 or flv3 in the same player
when flv2/flv3 finishes we see another button
if we click this button we replay the whole thing (so playing flv1)
this whole thing in one video player like youtube
My application's creationComplete="onInit()" has a lot of processing. Therefore I want to mask the entire application with a lightbox-style loading screen while the processing is being handled. The screen should be dark and a loading animation image in the center. After onInit() is completed the loading screen is removed.My thoughts are to add a UIComponent to the stage, and to remove it at the end of onInit().

Im attempting to make a create your own art work style piece in flash. Ive designed it out so that you first select one of 3 buttons to select which vase you wish to use as a base. However the next set of buttons relate to the colour of that object, so there are 4 options (blue, red, pink and brown) and the user selects one from clicking the appropriate button.
However im strugling to figure out how i would know which of the first options (which vase) the user has selected in the first place. Is there some kind of time line trick or script that i could use to sort this out???

I'm working on a guitar tutorial website where users can select parts of a song, then write an explanation of how to do that guitar technique. The explanation will pop up, like a youtube style annotation whenever someone plays that song. It's like the youtube video annotations, except exclusive to guitar lessons:When someone plays a song, the annotations get displayed in real time.-There will be 3 sql databases: user information (ex. email, password, etc...), song meta information (ex. song name, length of song, etc...), annotation information and content (ex. annotation start and end time (to queue when the analysis/annotation should be displayed), etc...). The flash gui will interact with all databases.There's a lot of options out there (Adobe flash CS5, flex, flash builder), what are the differences between the three?

Using Flex 4.1, i'm trying to create a Tree element with a custom ItemRenderer (MXTreeItemRenderer). my problem is that whenever I fold and unfold a root item, the order of the items change.. it's weird like maybe the XML is not formatted properly.
[Code]...
I retrieve XML data in Flex via HttpService. I have the resultFormat property on the HttpService instance set to HTTPService.RESULT_FORMAT_OBJECT. The result contains data similar to this:
<!-- ... -->
<children>
<item><!-- ... --></item>
[Code]....
I get an array named item beneath the element children when there is more than one item sibling. If there's only one, the conversion can't distinguish it from a scalar.
What do I need to change to have Flex convert all item elements to an array with 0 or more elements?
What would I have to do to get an array member children, dropping the item wrappers altogether?
The XML is generated by Struts on the server side. I always have the option to change the structure of the document there, but right now I'm interested in what I can do with Flex.
Does any one know of an article's on the element's / structure needed to create a flash , php , MySQL cms ? I failed to mention flash would be the GUI for the CMS
View 1 RepliesI would like to create an AJAX style pop up to present photos from a flash movie. I found a tutorial, but it didn't work for me. I'm trying to trigger it off the gerURL function of a button, but nothing popups. I have verified that a simple link in <a> from the html page the flash movie is on works fine, so it's just the call from flash itself.
View 4 RepliesI want to create a flash movie which firstly loads a selection of images/objects into a portion of the frame. After this is complete, the user can then drag these objects onto another area and the object will be created where the user has chosen. The user can then drag another instance of the ojects onto the area.
For example, there is a background of a lake in one area. A selection of boat pngs are loaded in an area below the lake. The user can drag these boats and place them on the lake. They can drag a boat multiple times if they wish.
Is it able to create a SWF with for example 800x650px and to define some 'containers' within it for other SWF-files? I want to create a container for navigation at the right and when clicking on a navi element,changing the content of anorher container availalble, perhaps like'headAnimation'.
Is it able to change attributes of an included 'container'with a SWF when clicking an element within another SWF placed in a
'container'? Perhaps I have an 'container' with 'navigation.swf' within. When clicking on an elemnt .I want to start a function that fades in/out another'container'. Am I able to create a function that works for all 'containers'? E.g.like that fader so I can submit the name of a 'container' to let it fade out and I can use that function within all elements in any 'container'.
Is there anyway to take take a "screenshot", "save" or "capture" the active SWF element on a page as an image? I'd like for users to be able to simply click a button on my page, instead of having to need to manually take a screenshot of the entire page and then crop the image to show only the SWF element.I found a Jquery method, although I am unsure if it could work with SWF files. It basically captures an area of an Image element on the page and allows you to save that as a separate image. What I would need however, is to capture the SWF as the image instead. Note: I do not have access to the SWF code so I cannot achieve this using Actionscript or anything like that
