I would like to know if anyone has seen online search evidence that google indexes swf sites. So If you have an example where its purely a flash site and a search comes up finding copy from within, I'd be keen to check it out.
View 1 Repliesmaybe its a strange questions but i have a little dilemma. I have some flash-xml sites and Google is indexing the xml-files.When a user is searching (Google) and the text is inside the xml-file, the result of the search sometimes will be [URL] when the user clicks on it only the xml-file is shown in the browser. Question:Is there a way to link or redirect the xml-file automaticly to the index.html of the site?Or is there another way to prevent this?
View 1 RepliesI got a Flash website that loads html files. In the html files is the content (text).Google doesn't find the text (tried quoting a line for example to get precise search results).
View 1 RepliesI'm using swfobject, and in the replacement div I have a message for those who don't have Flash or JS support. The replacement div contains a message like "You don't have Flash player, please download here" - my concern here, is that Google will see and index this message, which is not relevant to the content of the page, and it's going to affect the search ranking.
Is there some way to mark a piece of content to be ignored by Google? My guess is no.
But then how do you go about placing a message like this without having it indexed?
My only idea is to use an iframe with nofollow. But then Google will penalize any site that uses frames, so that's not a good option either.
Isn't there some way to make it generate a palette from common colors? Just look at the horrible noise in there.In fact, it does this to solid colors too. Any color not on some specified palette will be pixel-dithered to get the result, and so it's always grainy.
View 1 RepliesI have a series of movieclips which I want to use as buttons.The instance names of the clips are as follows: "ms1", "ms2", "ms3" and so on...I want to put frame actions on these buttons, so that when the mouse rolls over on them, the button movie clip changes frame. I created an array to store instance names and then referred to it for actions, but the problem is that although my buttons do work, but when I roll over them, the button doesn't move to its next frame.
Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
var men:Array=new Array();
[code]......
If I m using 08 and 09 in the array then its giving an error but no such error with other numbers not even with 8 and 9.just here is an example to make easy to under stand my problem .
var my_array= new Array();
my_array[08]="amrita"
trace(my_array[08])
In the following code, the on1,on2,on3,on4,on5 are instance names given to 5 buttons. all five of the buttons ARE SUCCESFULLY responding to the Press1 function below.
Code:
var ONarray:Array=new Array("on1","on2","on3","on4","on5");
for (var i:uint; i < ONarray.length; i++) {
var ON:MovieClip=getChildByName(ONarray[i]) as MovieClip;

I wanted to put a search box in my flex app that would act just like google or google finance: you start typing and a drop down list just below starts filtering the results dynamically. Does anyone know how to do this in flex? I am using flex and php so as the user types it will pull results off the server dynamically.
View 1 RepliesI'm a PHP programmer who's learning more about adobe products including flex, and would like to train myself to recognize when flash/flex is the right technology to use for a client/project (and of course when it's not the right technology to use).I guess the best way to get it is by experience, so if you know of any examples (full site or even small part of a site) that you think the developer was right or wrong in choosing the flash technology for that project/part, please add it here with an explanation why. Same for other projects that were not implemented in flash but should have been. If you think the developer made the wrong decision, say why and what you would have used instead. The idea is to provide real examples to help people like me who are getting into flash/flex, but want to understand the right way to fit it into their work if at all.

View 4 RepliesI'm having a problem while assigning variables into dynamically-created MovieClips. Here's a pseudo-code of what I'm trying to achieve.
[Code]....
I need the movie clips to contain their index values as a variable within them. I've tried several approaches, including declaring the variable names within the MC itself, but that doesn't work either.
I had seen different examples of volume controls for videos. I had built one that works, but the volume control is outside the main controller/Holder, so If I move the Holder the volume stays. I tried placing the volume controller inside the holder, but I loose the ability to drag and control the volume. here is the AS3 code I have.
Holder_mc is the main mc that will contain all other controllers.

I am trying to create a simple board game (a kind of checkers), where users will be able to play online with each other using flex application as a client.
I am using django application to process the game on the server side. And I come across the problem, if one user made a move, I can send it to a server, but how do I let the opponent know about it?
The way I am thinking to do it is to create a timer and send requests to the server asking was opponents move done or not....But here we have 2 limitations:
1) Each client would produce big amount of requests (not sure how server will work if I have e.g 100 such clients)
2) If players will chose game with a time limit for example 5 minutes/per game it will be very important to show them situation on the board as soon as it changes (without a pause), but timer will send request only on timer event, so if for example I will chose tick interval to 5 seconds it will mean that 5 seconds another side will not be aware of the situation changes.
I'm in the process of learning Flex, but I learn best by example. Where can I find open source examples of Flex applets? In particular, I'm trying to reproduce the functionality of the JavaScript based Simile timeline, so a timeline example would be sweet.
View 2 RepliesI'm considering using Flash as the UI of a native Windows app, for several reasons, but before I dive in and start building, I figured I'd poll the community to find out whether anyone's got any good examples of this particular approach out there today, just to prove the concept satisfactorily. So I guess that's pretty much the question: Anyone built one specifically? Or better, anyone know of an app in relatively wide distribution that demonstrates the viability of this approach?

View 2 RepliesThe enclosed image is a snapshot of part of my web page portfolio. At the moment it is placed jpgs into Dreamweaver. When you click on a work example it opens up a new browser window with the work example enlarged (old fashioned way). This is not really a problem but I was wondering if I put my work examples into flash CS4 how do I go about creating the effect of a work example instantly being magnified the moment someone clicks it? Like what happens when you click the enclosed image.
Is this an actionscript job or can this effect be produced without any complex scripting work? Perhaps someone knows a tutorial somewhere for a similar effect in Flash CS4. I would like the work examples to magnify quite large though. My thinking behind this was so people can't steal your work example JPGs so easily (flash portfolios seem to not allow saving of the content)

I am trying to create a simple gui component that has a vertical gradient, simple enough right... I create the sprite, and draw the gradient with beginGradientFill and a matrix with a 90 degree radian angle on it; but it stops working if the sprite has a long width, below is an exmaple of what I mean:
package {
import flash.display.GradientType;
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
[Code] .....
If I change
matrix.createGradientBox(800, 100, Math.PI*0.5, 0, 0);
to
matrix.createGradientBox(800, 100, Math.PI, 0, 0);
It works fine - but horizontally - why is it that applying 90 degrees the fill does not work?

View 0 RepliesI have a parent swf which loads many child swfs (though only one is displayed at a time). My intention was to use the loaded SWFs document class to retrieve an array of objects to be assigned a tab index, combine this with the parent's own array of objects and apply sequential tab indices to them all. But what happens is actually that the parent's objects are assigned an index, but the external swf is unaffected. In fact, the external swf retains its automatic tab indexing, when I would expect that having set a value for InteractiveObject.tabIndex, automatic tab indexing would be disabled.
I've seen similar tales elsewhere. Most posts I've read are wanting to load an external swf, give it focus and loop through those objects, then close the swf and return to looping through the parent. However I would like loop through all objects as one. including manipulating the focus manager(s), and basically fiddling with every tab-related property I know.
Looking for a programming book that is in tutorial approach. Example this chapter teaches you how to do a login form. In the second chapter it teaches you how to integrate the login for to another app.Basically I'm looking for a book that teaches you real working application rather than abstract ideas. Programming language I have in mind is Adobe Air/Flex, Visual Basic. Functions I have in mind should at least cover Drag and Drops, Integration to a web form (form entry) and customizable interfaces.The languages i had in mind isn't fix. If you know a programming platform that has little code or easy to learn but still be able to develop a cool application.
