is it possible to write new id3v2 tags to a mp3-file through actionscript? Normally you can read/write tags like artist,album,genre...But I would like to add for example the tag "atmosphere = smooth".

Is it even possible to both read and write http headers in actionscript?
View 1 RepliesI posted this in one of the other sub-forums before I realised this one was available. I am moving over to using the Flex based embed metadata tags to import assets into my Flash CS4 IDE based project. This is working very well but I have hit one small problem - how do you now create a pre-loader? I've done the usual google to look for a solution and found many Flex based solutions and tried them all out but they do not appear to work from within a CS4 IDE based project - even when tried out on a web page.

View 1 Repliesi have a problem with the flash textFormat. I want to write an editor, which only outputs bold (<b>) and italic (<i>) tags and not the other information flash adds to an htmlText.
for example in this case the output trace (myTextField.htmlText) should be exactly the input.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.text.TextFormat;
myTextField.htmlText = "huhuh <b>asjdja</b> asdasd";
trace (myTextField.htmlText);
is there a cleaner solution than replace the other information (font-size etc)
I'm trying to load the jpg out of an mp3 (I'm doing this in Flash, but that's neither here nor there), and I've pulled open a few MP3s in a hex editor and while the rest of the tag is pretty clear, the image part is a mystery. There is a label "image/jpeg" but then I expect something resembling a byte length for the image or a string key that demarcates the end of the image

I've be messing around with Flash for a little while now and just recently starting trying to do a datagrid which is loaded from an XML file. Well I've gotten the XML to populate the datagrid. Everything is fine in that aspect but I cant seem to get my text to align properly in the datagrid. By default ofcourse everything is aligned Left. I would like align everything centered (the cells as well as the column Header.The code that I have basically creates the datagrid at runtime,

Is it possible to read HTML headers in AS3? The header contains the following meta tag:
Code:
<meta name="language" content="en-GB" scheme="rfc1766" />
The idea is to extract
Code:
content="en-GB"
into a variable (to control the language in the swf).
Why you need to actually send some data in order for UrlLoader to send custom request headers.For example this code is working:
var ul:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(); ul.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, onComplete
[code].....
I would like to do this, without the "readfile()" part:
header("Content-type: application/force-download");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: Binary");
header("Content-length: ".filesize($file));
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename="".basename($file).""");
readfile("$file");
Basically I am trying to forward a download to another URL but at the same time I need to be able to set headers like "filename".
The readfile($file) function will not do it for me, because the the $file is not stored on the same server as the PHP script (not even the same datacenter) Is this even possible ? If not via PHP, maybe FLASH could do this ?

View 3 RepliesI have been trying to figure out how you could add in custom attribute tags that flash can recover.
EX:
<param name = "movie" value = "somefile.swf">
<embed src = "somefile.swf" width = "550" height = "400">
Except, that I would like to add a Custom tag, like "randNum" so that the tag user could input some number, or rather, a flash movie could generate a tag with a number already put in...Basically, heres a really basic version of the idea.There is a Flash Movie.In the movie, you can input text into a textfield.Upon finishing your message, you click a button "save".
The flash movie then:
1. Comes up with a random number unique to the message.
2. Assigns that number to a variable... "randNum".
3. Saves message as a xml file to the server as "filename" + randNum.
4. Outputs into a textfield a generated HTML tag that a user can post on myspace and such so that it will load in the flash movie.
Except... in the tag, there will be a custom attribute. If the random number variable "randNum" was 00112233, the custom attribute will be 00112233.
EX:
<embed src = "somefile.swf" width = "550" height = "400" randNum = "00112233">
So when the movie opens, it retrieves that randNum from the tag and can use it inside flash. How can this be done? Sorry this post was so long, but I wanted everyone to understand the concept.
I am in the process of writing an application in Flex 3.3, using the Cairngorm framework, for deployment as an AIR application. The application heavily utilizes RemoteObject services to get data from a web server.Each of my service delegates extends a common class which provides a method for calling service methods on the RemoteObject.So, where I previously usedServiceLocator.getInstance().getRemoteObject('myService').myOperation.send();I instead usethis.send('myOperation', 'myService');I use this method instead of calling the RemoteObject operations directly because this method adds another, global, responder to the operation call. This extra responder analyses data in the headers of reponse from the server.
Or at least it should -- this is where the problem is. In the result data (event as mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent) the headers property is always null despite the headers definitely being sent from the server.
I am trying to extend the DataGrid to allow headers for different groups of rows. However, I cannot figure out which method to extend from DataGrid that would allow me to accomplish this. I do not want the headers to be included in the dataProvider, only the rows. I want to specify indexes to insert the headers at using a property of the custom datagrid.
Here is a quick photoshop showing what I am trying to do:
Is there any custom component already built that will do this?

I am trying to use the Quickbase API (see reference below) with a POST. I am having trouble forming it; specifically, I am clueless as to how to format the header (headers=""). I think the XML Payload is correct, but who knows.

I have been trying to customize the datagrid component. So far I have been able to customize the cells using a custom cellRenderer. I would like to change the way the header looks by using a custom headerRenderer as well but from all the ones that I have tried to make don't work.[code]to try and set the headerRenderer class that I created to the datagrid name dgPL. But it doesn't work. From what I have found on the internet the headerRenderer class is suppose to act just like the cellRenderer class in design and implementation. I can't find any examples of people using a custom headerRenderer class or examples on how to make one.I have gone wrong in designing my class or implementing it into my program would be appreciated.Also I am trying to figure out how to add a Marquee to the cells of the same datagrid so that if the content in the cell is too long for the size of the cell it will scroll across the cell when the user rolls over the datagids list of content. The part I am having trouble with is figuring out how to get the new string assigned to the cell without permanently overriding the dataprovider's content for that specific row in the datagrid.
From my looking on the internet I have found a way to create a marquee for textFields. What I can't figure out is how to apply it to the datagrid itself.[code]Right now the marquee works by creating a textField and doing the marquee that way but that isn't the most effective way of doing it at all due to allignment issues when scrolling the content in the datagrid.I know how the Marquee works I just don't see how to apply this marquee to the datagrid cells itself. I know how to grab the content of my cell's with no issues at all and how to redefine it for the marquee to work I just am not sure how to assign it back to the cell itself without overriding the dataprovider permanently.

I can call an external javascript function that will do a post, but however the XmlHttpRequest infrastructure only want to setRequestHeader(key,value), and seems to need to be from a very specific list of strings. setRequestHeader("foo","bar") did not add a foo header in my outgoing request.
There does not seem to be a way to add the header meta tag. via javascript. Or at lease I am not finding it off of google.
I've been using Claudio's tutorial titled "Preloader & Transitions for Dynamic Files" and everything is working okay except for one minor detail. First off, what i am doing is loading external SWF headers on my site. Each of these headers are animated. Once the Transition Shutter Mask closes and loads the next header, it starts playing the external header animation immediately rather than waiting for the Transition Shutter Mask to fully open and then start playing the animation.
So as a result, users are missing the beginning parts of each animation. Also, I noticed that after I uploaded it to test the preloading, I missed more of the Header Animations due to the loading time difference. This means that I can not just insert the exact amount of blank frames, in which the shutter takes to close, to the beginning of each header animation.
Can I insert stuff like headers (<h1>) and meta keywords into flash?

I currently designed a website for my client in wordpress with rotating banner headers. The website theme is space and astronomy, hence my client wanted banners about space shuttles and galaxies etc. I have been able to do this .. but with one small hitch the banners are in the size of 50-70 KB each. You can check out the website at -[URL] What I wanted to know is
1. Is there a wordpress plugin which installs adobe flash on the website?
2. Will making the banners in flash reduce the load time?
3. Will using flash affect the user experience as I believe many mobile brosers and iPad's do not support flash?
When requesting data with:
<param value="data-file=http://url-to-my/json.script" name="flashvars">
via an SWF file, what request type would "http://url-to-my/json.script" receive. It doesn't seem to be a "xmlhttprequest". Is it the same as a request from a browser?
