Flex :: Can Enterprise Apps Requiring HTML5's New Feature(s) Support Non-HTML5 Browsers
Nov 16, 2011
I'm just trying to understand how once HTML5 enters the picture, the current concerns about browser incompatibility and other issues go away? Wouldn't HTML5 simply add another set of browsers to the large list of current browsers that the application must target?
That is, assuming the enterprise web app requires one of these new HTML5 features (e.g. playing audio and/or video, integrating SVG or vector graphics, etc.). If such a feature isn't critical then graceful degradation may be acceptable and then my question is moot.
But for those apps that require one of these new HTML5 features, are you planning to support older browsers, or expecting it's acceptable to restrict to HTML5 browsers because the enterprise in question has made one of them their new corporate standard (or other scenario, etc.)?

Looking into HTML5 video tag, and researching which browsers support which video file types, and my initial thought is things just got harder than just using flash. I am wondering if there is some skeleton code (combined with development approach for videos) that someone has figured out to do the following: If flash is available, use it If not, try html5 video ogg format If that doesn't work, try html5 video h.264 format If that doesn't work, try html5 video webM format Based on what I am seeing, am I correct in thinking that now, in order to accommodate all users on all browsers, a video needs to be published in 4 formats? If so, this HTML5 video thing is an epic fail!

I need Flex code to support HTML5 File API. Because I need to support File API feature for those browsers that did not support File API. Do you have any code or link?

This is such a common thing that I imagine there must be a "good" way of cleanly embedding Flash into HTML5? I'm only interested in supporting the following browsers: FF3, FF4, IE7, IE8, IE9, Chrome and Safari.
I know there's some Javascript solutions like SWFObject, but that seems like overkill. Isn't there just a clean, quick and easy way using HTML?
Additionally: Is there any downside to just using <embed>? It was previously depreciated by the W3C, but I understand it's back in HTML5. So why not just use it instead of faffing around with <object>?

I need a audio and videoplayer that is usable both in non flash-browsers (such as iphone-safari) and in non html5-video-enabled browser (such as all old browsers)Apart from this clean asthetics(think vimeo), support for many codec-types and easyness to implement are all bonuses.

I'm using JWPlayer to serve an html5 video with a flash fallback.I'd also like to have an image fallback if there is neither html5 nor flash support but I can't see how to do this.
My code is as follows:

{ type: "flash", src="http://www.mysite.com/jwplayer/player.swf"}

is there a framework that is similar to Adobe Flex written in HTML5? My app currently support having multiple objects on the screen where user can drag / drop / resize and rotate them in scrapbook fashion. There are few animations as well. Flex makes it easy to build such apps. I was wondering if there is a good framework I can use to ease up such task maybe with HTML5 so it can be used on mobile devices.

I'm creating my first web application and I'm really confused as to what technology to go for. My application needs to look serious (like an application), it doesn't need many colorful graphical interfaces. It only needs a toolbar, a tab bar, a split panel (preferably 3 columns), an easily-formatable text field, and a status bar. It will connect to a MySQL database through PHP (unless I go for GWT). Users will upload files. My evaluation of the options:
Flex: Probably the easiest to develop but I'm pretty sure my application is something one would use on an iPad and with Flash's future on the iPad still unsure, I don't want to take the risk, otherwise Flex would've been my choice. jQuery: I've heard a lot about it and a lot of people recommend but I don't know how easy it is to use and how customizable the look of my app is. GWT: The problem with GWT is that it doesn't have many widgets. Another problem is that I'm gonna have to host the files in AppEngine's datastore and transfer them back and forth to a web server that will do operations on them (I need to process them) which adds more traffic and slows the process which worsens the user experience. Closure: It has a nice toolbar and a nice text field. I'm not sure how easy it is to use. Plus, I read an article that makes it sound really bad.

I built a prototype in Adobe Flex, they (customers) liked it. Everything was fine until they later told me that iPads / iOS needs to be supported too.I checked out Adobe's Packager for iPhone. We're evaluating that and we will know if it works out in a couple of days. (We need to get through Apple's red tape and certificates raj so this angle is delayed by a few days!)
There is a growing voice for using HTML5/Canvas as a technology platform itself. And despite being quite proficient in Flex, I think this makes sense.
I'm in need of a HTML5 library that can:
Render "widgets" i.e. containers with forms and components(this should be easy and possible using POHJC - Plain old HTML,JavaScript and CSS )Provide a Tree like control for laying out some data Provide a Canvas where data structures can be represented as basic shapes Provide drag and drop capabilities between Trees, Buttons and Canvas Provide some sort of Tab Navigator container (I guess JQuery works here) Interact with back-end services (JSON/XML calls will be okay, but mapping directly with back-end entities will be awesome!)Renders on latest versions of major browsers, Android OS and iOS (WebKit for mobile?)
I'm ready to give JQuery & JQuery UI a try. I looked at Sencha / ExtJS but it seems we need to maintain two code bases one for normal browsers and the other for mobiles (is that correct?)Single code base, I don't want to suggest to them that multiple code bases for the client need to be maintained. That's a last resort option and would lead to complete ruling out of HTML5 with Flash apps and native apps being developed.Canvas capabilities - I don't want to work with raw canvas and shape tags. This too is a last resort option. Is there any abstraction available?

Iīm using flex with Ruby on Rails backend to develop rich internet apps. Recently flash has been attacked, an example is Steve Jobīs thoughts on Flash.
I think flex is a wonderfull tool, but to be honest I really would rather to have a tool as productive as flex but compliant with open standards.
For me, in a perfect world I would code in MXML just like I do now and Flex Builder would build a pure html5 front-end.

We have an ASP.NET 4 website that displays flash files. It has come to our attention that these are not fully supported on HTML5, and that they will not play on HTML5 platforms such as the iPad.So, in order to support such platforms, my thinking is that we need to try and display the video using the HTML5 <video> tag if the browser supports HTML5, or fall back to flash if it does not.However, it would seem that this requires our site to provide two video formats (flash format and video such as MP4). That presents problems because A), we need to store multiple video formats on the site, and B) our existing flash data will no longer work.Can anyone recommend information about the best way to support as many platforms as possible. And is there any way to do so without having to support multiple video formats?

I currently have a working Brightcove Smart Player implementation, with Flash as the default and an HTML5 fallback where Flash is not supported (read: iOS). I would like to reverse this: prefer HTML5 video, and use Flash as the fallback.Is this possible, and if so, how? Brightcove seems to have entirely missed the point of providing an HTML5 option by using it as the fallback instead of the preferred format.Additionally, although Brightcove announced plans to support WebM as well as H.264 18 months ago, it seems that the HTML5 player still only supports H.264. Firefox can't (and likely will never) support H.264 for patent (and, IMO, ideological) reasons. Firefox is used far too widel

how to easily convert a .SWF file to HTML5? I tried SWIFFy and that doesn't work.
I just downloaded adobe Wallaby and it requires a FLA file. That makes sense, but I don't know how to make the SWF file a FLA one so that I can see if Wallaby will in fact convert it.

I was wondering, if I have a proprietary flash code (e.g: some cool animation which is really just client side stuff, its just example), and about to rewrite it using HTML5, is it possible to hide the code? or at least make it harder to see (unlike right click, view source, then you can just copy paste the code).

I'm trying to build a AS3 socket server that can handshake with html5 websockets. I've base my code on this link http:[url]....This is what i have using the same values as the example in the link:
import com.dynamicflash.util.Base64;
import com.adobe.crypto.SHA1;
function getKey():void{[code]...
Now the example states that the output should be : Concretely, if as in the example above, |Sec-WebSocket-Key| header field had the value "dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==", the server would concatenate the string "258EAFA5-E914-47DA-95CA-C5AB0DC85B11" to form the string "dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==258EAFA5-E914-47DA-95CA-C5AB0DC85B11". The server would then take the SHA-1 hash of this, giving the value 0xb3 0x7a 0x4f 0x2c 0xc0 0x62 0x4f 0x16 0x90 0xf6 0x46 0x06 0xcf 0x38 0x59 0x45 0xb2 0xbe 0xc4 0xea. This value is then base64-encoded (see Section 4 of [RFC4648]), to give the value "s3pPLMBiTxaQ9kYGzzhZRbK+xOo="
