Using javascript or flash, is it possible to log into websites and than pull content from that page?
I am trying to make a phone app that displays content from a site that requires log in.
What's the risk if it is between 2 websites or 2 webservices or between a site url and flash or embedded javascript ?
View 1 RepliesI want to play a little "ding" sound when a new item is posted on my site. I'll leave the option to turn it off of course.Now should I do this with JavaScript? Would jQuery be helpful? Or should I use Flash? Looking for something that is widely compatible with different browsers.
View 3 RepliesI am interested in streaming audio on my website, but I have no clue where to begin. There are two types of streaming I hope to achieve. The first would be streaming a playlist of songs stored on the server and the second would be live audio streaming. Can anybody recomend any good sites or plugins to use?
View 2 RepliesDo you know any good solutions for converting a HTML rich text to a paginated book ? I used a CKEditor to let the user input the desired text. Now I am trying to display the content in a Book like environment. Preferably a Javascript/CSS one but Flash is OK too. Thought about jPaginate , jquery plugin. The text can be formatted with 2-3 text styles and can contain images.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible at all to create a feature on a website where you allow a user to select a portion of the web page, and that selected area is rendered as an image? Its similar to the "Cropper" desktop program but needs to be embedded on the web page It sounds near impossible using JS, flash, silverlight or any web based tools but I just wanted to get a 2nd opinion.

What I really want to know is what is the most mainstream method of creating a slideshow on a website.What do you recommend?So far I've seen Jquery, Javascript, CSS & DHTML, and Flash. The first thing that comes to mind for me is flash, then second Javascript.
View 2 RepliesI want to take a screenshot from my website of another website or preferable 1 part of it (an object tag).I want it to work this way: I click on a button that will send a request to screenshot the page at this moment. Several ideas are insert the page inside a flash object and screenshot it. Or opening a browser on the server and when I click the button send a request using AJAX to tell the server to screenshot with this browser.How should I do this because I kind of failing right now with the flash Idea. The page I am trying to screenshot is a live camera that uses a .wvx object. But I can't even do that with a .swf object
View 1 RepliesI'm considering attempting a redesign of a flash website with jquery effects and transitions in place. I just wanted to reach out to the community to maybe see how feasible this really is considering the particular transitions and effects this website hasThe gallery I guess can be recreated by carousel plugin, but there are so many out there so maybe could suggest a stable one that would be be best suited to this job. The other items that really caught my attention in which I wouldn't really know where to start is the navbar and the effect that looks like a book opening when you click on a link on the navbar.
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to stream a radio channel in my website if I have the mml url mms:// ? I was checking out XML Flash Players but they do not seem to support that protocol. I am also ok if I need to code something but I would like to be guided in the right direction as I cannot find a lot of information about this issue.Is there something ready made? Would it be easier if I get my client to get me a different type of stream?
View 1 RepliesI want to capture flash events in webpage using javascript. By flash events I mean like, clicking a Button, mouseover, entering text in textbox in flash content (websites).

For my wishlist site, I would like to propose widgets to my users in order to publish their wishlist on their blog or personal website.

I have a single page web app that shows real time data using just HTML/CSS/JS - I have managed to keep Flash out of it.
Now I want to play a small chime but I don't want to make the site dependent on Flash. It is just a chime to indicate a new chat, so it is not a huge stumbling block but I would like to find a way.
Is this possible - I am guessing no since you need something local to play the sound
Edit: I am not able to use HTML5 quite yet.
I am kind of new to javascript/html5. normally I would do that kind of stuff inside flash/as3. but since the iPad doesn't support that I need to switch the horse...I want to build a website where words are floating in position and size and if the mouse comes over one word it should draw some lines to all the other words. are there any frameworks one could use? the whole should look like a tag cloud with lines between the tags.
View 2 RepliesAnd just loved the way it looked, anyone have any idea how to get a similar effect using ideally CSS/JS and if not then using flash? Furthermore it would be excellent if you could move to the next slide by clicking on the image itself.I'm also wondering how she is able to maintain height of the images when resizing (unless she is doing it manually which I doubt now days).

How do I replace it with a Quicktime movie?
Using AS2 or 3, is there a way to create my own file format? I would like to create a game.And when users play the game, they can create a GAME-SAVE-FILE.So, let's say that player 1 is playing... He get's to level 22 and has to sign off.He clicks save my GAME-SAVE-FILE to my computer.He names the file MyGame and saves it to his desktop.So now on his desktop he has MyGame.gsf. Next time he visits, he can click on UpLoad My Saved Game.He selects his previously saved MyGame.gsf And bammo... all the information was stored in his file and now he can play on.
I need to know how I would put together the format for my own file-type / extension.I need to know how I would access, write, and edit my own file-type / extension.Since Flash can do this type of File Manipulation with PNG's and JPG's.So surely it can be done with any desired custom format.
I have a request to create a "flash-like" app that is connected to a MS Access Database (DB). The customer has built up a product configurator in Access and wants to know if I can do anything with it. Is this what Flex is good for? I still really do not understand what Flex is all about.
Anyway, I thought of exporting the DB out to an XML file and importing that to a flash app and then using the data there. The problem with that is that I would have to recreate all of the logic (e.g. if you choose "model A" you can only choose "colors 1, 2, or 3") that manipulates the elements in the DB and also the client would not be able to easily manipulate/edit/update the DB without having to export it to XML, etc...What would be a smart way for me to access/manipulate a MS Access Database through a flash front end?
I am curious if anyone knows how to code a button so that when you click it an object resizes, but shows the animation of it resizing. For example I know that
ActionScript Code:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.onRelease, resize);
function resize(): void {

I want to search and replace specific text in a HTML file (about 10k - so quite a lot of text). I was thinking of trying to get Flash to do this for me. I wasn't sure how good Actionscripts text manipulation was! The only reason why I was think of doing this in Flash was because I don't know VB. I would otherwise do it in Perl if Actionscript is no good.

View 4 RepliesI have a project which is about creating interactive videos for users..The main idea is that user will open the app and a predefined video will show-up.Video will show couple of billboards, signs etc. while moving through a highway.. Like from a perspective of a driver..I need to insert users photos to these billboards and some text to signs..
The problem is, these objects which I'll be filling are changing their shapes constantly because of the car movement. I can get all the x,y coordinates and timings of the video from my partners. But I don't know how to use them in this situation.I think about continious tweens with these x,y values but I'm not sure..

View 3 RepliesI'm creating a Flex application that enables users to communicate in a kind of video chat room. I only allow to live streams at any given moment. I'm using FMS to record the videos in FLVs. What I need to do is post process those videos and create a single video with all that happened in the video room. That means that I need to combine 2 videos, reduce the size of one of them so it appears over the other one. In other words one video will use the whole space an the other will appear at the upper left corner (over the other video,).
I need a server side solution for this. I created another post here and someone suggest a screen capture solution. That would work perfectly, but since this appliction will be used for several people and any time, I want the process to be automaticaly not manual. So, I'm thinking I can do it with FFMPEG, but I need a way to identify in which order I need to compose the videos. Something like adding a time stamp to each FLV in FMS (when they are recorded). How can I add custom metadata to the FLV?
I've been messing around a bit with some low-level bitmap manipulation and having been creating some various color matrices to apply to bitmap data to add "filters" (for lack of a better term).I have seen a number of tutorials online in C# and AS3 about applying various color matrices to bitmaps, but was curious if anyone simply had a collection of these color matrices that map to specific filter styles (black and white, sepia, etc.).

View 0 RepliesI need to do file manipulation such as create,write and delete in flex4 webapplication.
View 0 Repliesi have a problem manipulating multiple sound objects in MX. i have a main background loop object and a button rollover object (which plays on specific buttons). i then have a volume slider which will set the volume of only the main bg loop object. but when i tested it, it seems that the volume of the button rollover object is also the same with the main bg loop object's volume. meaning, if my main bg loop's volume is down to 50, the button rollover sound volume is also 50.
here're my codes:
//code on 1st frame
mainLoop = new Sound();
mainLoop.attachSound("mainLoop");
mainLoop.start();
mainLoop.onSoundComplete = function(){
mainLoop.start();
}
hoverSound = new Sound();
hoverSound.attachSound("hoverSound");
//code on slider MC
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(drag){
_root.mainLoop.setVolume(this._x); //this._x is between 0-100
}
}
//code on sample button
on(rollOver){
hoverSound.start();
}
thanks!
