I`m looking for tutorials or open source examples, for display weather in my application. As I search I found some Flex (MXML) applications but I want something more clear and easy to go.
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if it is possible to get the accurate weather (temperature, cloudy/sunny/rainy/...) from an existing server somewhere into a flash mx file?For those who have windows vista already: there's a weather gadget that shows the temperature and a graphical representation of the sky outside, at that particular location, at that particular time (so very accurate).
First problem: where can I find a server who provides me of this data?
Second problem: where to start with the actionscript?
Where can i get the weather, in realtime (let's say each 10 minutes), of a specific place like Newyork, Dubai etc and display it in flash ?. I want to incorporate the information into the design that I have made.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a flash widget using yahoo weather API. Since it uses RSS I thought it was simples but I am stuck. I just don't know how to extract info inside this xml line:
<yweather:units temperature="C" distance="km" pressure="mb" speed="kph"/>
My complete code is:
var location_id:String='POXX0022';
var grades:String='c';
var url:String="[URL]"+location_id+"&u="+grades;
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();

I'm wondering wether there's a Javascript way to detect wether a user has any sort of flash blocking plugin installed so i can accommodate these users properly. For example, I use 'click to flash', but sites that use SiFR to render text are littered with "click to flash" buttons, which is getting very annoying. I don't use SiFR in my designs for this reason. But if I could spot wether there's a flash blocking plugin installed, I would simply not call the SiFR function.

View 3 RepliesI would like to have a map of the 50 U.S. states. I would like to click on a state and have a small pop-up window that displays the temperature of the capital of that state. After 5 seconds the pop-up closes. Behind the scenes I would also like the clicks being tracked by a database. I am digging around weather.com trying to figure out linking RSS feeds to Flash and I am thinking MySql to count the clicks. Does anyone have any tips or a quicker, easier way to set this up?

View 2 RepliesI am using Flash CS3 on Windows and using Dreamweaver CS3 to embed my flash content. I have a Flash banner/animation on my main index.html page that I cannot get to show up. I have provided all relative info/files below. It works find on my local hard drive, but when I upload it (from several different FTP clients) it won't show up on several different computers browsers. It's not my FTP, other items are uploading fine, and I don't think it is browser issues.
I checked the source code of the uploaded site against my Dreamweaver code, and it seems to be the same. So I can't understand what's going on.I tried resaving the file under a new name. The weird part is, I embedded a .swf file initially and it worked. I was asked to make edits to the movie, and I renamed it, replaced old files and now it won't work. I made sure and tried to check all the links to make sure it wasn't trying to link back to my old document, resaved my index.html page etc. [URL]

I have a question that I cant quite start.I have a web site that record some cookies: name, age, sex, etc.
I would like to know if it is possible to create a flash banner that display this information, like: hello [name], how are you doing today?
I was searching online and everything that I found needs something outside flash to work.
Is that a way to create a flash that can read cookie's values and show then?
