Php :: Dynamic Schedule Graphic With Backend Interface?
Feb 2, 2011
Thinking about developing a "class schedule app" that has a backend user interface that a user can add/edit/delete dates and times, savs and the data shows in a cool graph on a webpage. I was thinking of using authiticated php page to update an xml file or database that could be read by a flash app to create a dynamic graphic. Think a 800 x 500 square with the 7 days set as rows ontop of each other and the times for each day listed horizontally.The times set in xml/database would be color coded boxes with rounded corners that lay over the times for those days.**I am not looking for anyone to tell me how to do this. I was hoping to get ideas or thoughts from other developers on my options as far as languages to dev in. I have done a few searches and found a lot of javascript calendars to select dates but I am less concerned about the backend looking good.

I'm building a website where I hook people up so that they can anonymously vent to strangers. You either choose to be a listener, or a talker, and then you get catapulted into a one-on-one chat room. The reason for the app's construction is because you often can't vent to friends, because your deepest vulnerabilities can often be leveraged against you later on. (Like it or not, this is a part of human nature. Sad.)
I'm looking for some insight into how I should architect everything. I found this neat tutorial, [URL], which suggests using python & stackless + flash. Someone else suggested I should try using p2p sockets, but I don't even know where to begin to look for info on that.

interface If { ... }
class Impl implements If { ... }
function test(type:Class, obj) {
return obj instanceof type;
}
test(If, new Impl());
The call to test on the last line returns false, but it should be true. How can I do this check right, with the requirement that it must be inside the function?
Real code:
public function iterate(callback:Function, type:Class = null) {
for (var node:EntityListNode = beginNode; node != null; node = node.next) {
if (type == null || node.entity instanceof type) callback(node.entity);
}
}

Here's what I've got:
* In the Library, I have a movieclip which has a dynamic field. Let's call the MC: "Foo" and the field"BlahField".
* In the Library, I have 3 small ball graphics which I'll call "IconA", "IconB", and "IconC".
I read data from an external file and depending on what I find, I'll use ActionScript to add a Foo movieclip to the stage. Now, I want to some text in the BlahField, but--depending on the data--I also want to put one of the icons in the field as well. For the sake of this example, let's say I need IconA
Using ActionScript how do I put the IconA image in Foo.BlahField.text (remembering that I want to pull the image from the Library).

I've got a small icon as a .png in my library. Let's call it "icon.png".I have a number of dynamic fields on the screen that may or may not need to have the graphic depending on other circumstances.So...let's say I have a field called "Foo" and I want the .text to be the icon.png graphic from the library followed by a colon, followed by the text "This is an icon.

I've watched Lee's video on the Flash CS4 preloader a few times now but have not been able to figure out how to switch a movieclip for the dynamic text field.
Here's what I'm trying to do. My logo is a handwritten font. I've used the eraser tool over 100 frames to simulate the handwriting taking place, during the preloading process. Hopefully this will start at Frame 1 and go up to Frame 100 based on the percent of the external file loaded.
I just don't get how to change the AS from the video tutorial to have it work for my application. I don't have the 'percent_text' dynamic field obviously so the two lines which pertain are wrong, but that still doesn't get the movieclip [called logoLoader] to engage the script.
Here is Lee's script:
Code: Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("content.swf"));

I need an example source of something like this:
The flash reads the XML file, to create the dynamic content (like a picture gallery) The php creates the XML, and it has a user interface where we can upload pictures.

I am working on a website that focuses on a specific diet. On days that the person exercises, they eat from the time their workout starts until 9 hours later. On days that they don't exercise, their eating window is 2 hours after their normal exercise time until 6 hours later.
Here is what I'm looking to achieve:
A visitor enters a workout time (example: 1pm) and checks off the days that they work out. From there, it generates a schedule for the week that lists the eating times for each day. For example, if they exercise mon/wed/fri at 1pm it will look like the follwing:

I'm trying to make this calendar thing where you can write your schedule in it and it will save it. The part I'm kind of stuck at (and I figure I should sort this part out before getting much further) is that I need it to identify which day it is you're clicking on.
I'm thinking if I can get flash to write a txt file (like with xml or something) that says what box your clicking on, then I can get it to display that txt file in the dynamic text that says "Day" over your schedule. Then anytime you enter something into the schedule it will name it after that dynamic text and the time. Eventually I'll have to have a "back" button that will take you back to the main calendar. I'm thinking I can make this button delete the txt file that said which day you clicked on so that there's no confusion....Or I could make it that when you click on a day it will delete any pre-existing txt files that say which day you clicked on. (Not your actual schedule txt files.)
And then of course I'll have to make it so that any time you click on a day and get the dynamic text "Day" it will display all the text associated with that day. So does anyone know how I would do this? I need to know what actionscript I can use that will export a txt file depending on what square/day you click on. And I also need to know what actionscript will delete the txt file when I need it. (Wow, I hope the paragraphs above make sense!) I've included my flash file.

I need to load in a schedule of events (xml).These events are precisely timed (down to a tenth of a second).The events (like, attach movie to main screen) need to last for a very precise amount of time (again, within a tenth of a second).So, it would run like so:Schedule gets loaded that says:
* "show banana for 15.5 seconds @ 2 min and 32 seconds after the movie started, then remove the banana."
* "show apple for 12 seconds @ 4 min and 12 seconds after the movie started, then remove the apple."
and so on... like 100 of them.So, what's the best way to handle this? It seems like I'll certainly have to use "setInterval" in there somewhere - but I'm looking for the cleanest and most accurate way to do this.To complicate things further - my scene is rather computationally intensive (even on the f8 player) and timing accuracy seems to be a weak spot for flash in this kind of situation.

I'm making this game with complex visual effects (some rendered lighting using bitmaps), so it takes about 1 second or so generating a level with 3 big lights, so it may take a little more using more lights. The map is built when the player clicks to play the level. The thing is I can't show him the game is busy processing the level elements, because the graphic elements won't refresh until the start level function returns, which would make some sort of info sign while the map is loading useless. How would I make it so this information is visible right after I click Start level and disappear as soon as the level is built? I'm assuming the event handler from clicking Start level has to return before the level starts loading, but how can I schedule the game for loading?

The program I aim to create here will run a series of countdowns, all day long, one after the other, basically counting down to the next event.For example:
-1 minute countdown til game begins
-20 minute countdown til intermission
-2 minute countdown til second half
-20 minute coundown til games over
-5 minute countdown til new game starts
I have been given a lists of times for which to begin each timer (and its duration), but the tutorial I followed earlier uses an onEnterFrame function.I need some way to determine the closest timer that should be running, without killing the CPU with onEnterFrame. This task seems like it should be simple, but I can't quite wrap my head around it.[code]

What is the best way for flex frontend to communicate with backend writted in C#? The only communication channel in HTTP, so no custom sockets.I used SOAP in the past, but am concerned about performance since the large overhead of xml, and this application I'm currently working on will be pretty data intensive.Anything that supports easy setup and transparent marshaling/unmarshaling is OK.Is there something as BlazeDS for .net?

We are developing an app with a Flex frontend and a C# backend, connected through web services. We are using the FLex Builder 3's Web Service Manager to autogenerate the webservice classes. The problem araise when Flex serialize our objects, for example, when we have a Number property with no value, this is serialized as NaN, and our backend doesn't know about NaN. Another example is when we serialize a cyclic reference, we get a stack over flow exception. I know in java, for example, you can configure the way xstream work with cyclic reference... So, the question is, can we change the way Flex serialize the objects so C# can work with this frontend? Is there any issue we should know about how flex serialize objects?

My problem here is actually not actionscriptbased but more of a backend problem.But I just can't figure this out & neither can the webhotel. When I run a flashsite on other webhotels everything is working when it comes the seo part. (Running the site with javascript deactivated - browsing the underlying html-site that is created with php, using the same principles as the But on my client's website (another webhotel) there are problems.
For example: ults in 404 error and a message that biography.swf does not exist. I always get redirected to some imaginary swf-files thus giving me 404 errors or to swf-files that happens to have the correct file names. I've checked the .htaccess file and they look exactly the same. In fact I have uploaded the complete site to another webhotel and everything works perfect. I can browse the underlying html-site without any problems.The support at the my client's webhotel doesn't seam to understand how this solution work. They think I'm doing some seo-tweeks that they can't give any support for. But something is clearly wrong here and it seems that something is different on their servers

I'm working on a application that requires a feature-rich media view, including images, videos, and smooth sequencing based on capture time. The backend is currently written in Rails.
What's currently the best, most mature option for implementing RIAs with Rails on the backend? I've looked at Flex, Laszlo, and ExtJS. ExtJS is interesting to me because I'm really not a fan of pure Flash UIs, but it seems highly targeted towards business apps, not entertainment applications like this.

I have to produce a generic API that provides game tracking functions (track what was clicked, track if a certain event occurred, etc). This generic API needs to wire into one of two (or more) bespoke tracking solutions provided by third parties (e.g. itracku.com and itrackutoo.com) in the background.The bespoke tracking solutions sport similar functions (trackClick, trackEvent), but vary dramatically in the number of arguments they require (e.g. one requires 1 argument to be passed, the other 6).In order for the generic API to easily switch between hitting either bespoke solution, am I right in assuming that ALL arguments need to be scoped out beforehand in order to facilitate switching tracking solutions? The desire is to NOT have to recomplie .swfs in order to switch tracking solution (i.e. it's switched via an XML config). I was thinking of achieving this by having my generic API functions accept a single object as an argument, e.g.[code]

I have been getting mps about how I did my high score list in my footer ever since I made it. But because I didnt know any PHP back then the high score list in my footer is all Action Script except the writing to the txt file bit. It is still every buggy and doesnt work very well. So thats why I didnt what to give it to any one because I knew I would never hear the end of all the problems people would have with it. But seen as I have got better at PHP now I made a system where the PHP does all of the work. It works better and its dynamic. I made a flash class that formats the score to an array and can communicate with the PHP file so it would be easy to used.
