Web Development :: Web Development - Post Flash Exe To Web?
Aug 26, 2010
I've been given a Flash tutorial to post to the corporate website that is an .exe file with an embedded Flash player. Users will be on IE, so I guess they would get the run/save prompt. I don't like this and I know it generally isn't done, but I need to know if it is OK to just do it. When I try to explain the security issues with executable files, eyes glaze. Is it possible that the users' system admins would be able to block the run prompt and make the user save the file? Could they block that too? The user community is hopeless, so having the embedded Flash player could be a good thing.

I'm using the the Adobe ActionScript 3 SDK for Facebook Platform to get all the tagged photos of the current user. Is this possible?
I've tried this:
FacebookDesktop.api("/"+uid+"/photos",getTagedPhotosHandler);
But that only gets me the photos belonging to that user.

Does anybody use bare .SWF files as webpages? I know it's possible; it seems to work fine for me. Why would I embed a SWF inside an HTML page if it's just going to be full screen (I mean the size of the browser's normal viewable page area, not COMPLETELY fullscreen)?
Is there a lack of browser support? Or is this functionality determined by the browser's Flash plugin?

I want to have a web site which switches the web camera of users, makes a video recording and send results to my web server.Is it possible to do that? I think it should be. For example such sites as chatroulette.com starts web camera. Should it be done with the Adobe Flash technologies? Is it hard to do that?

If I load a web page full of other files, e.g. images, my browser doesn't load them all at once.I seem to remember reading that IE will only have at most 3 requests open at a time for a page. The rest will be queued.If I have a flash movie on the page which is continually making image requests, how does this affect the maximum number of downloading files in the browser?
Is this browser limit accurate, and is it generally the same across browsers? Does flash share the requests of the browser? If not, does flash have a limit and what is that limit?
For some background, I do have a flash movie that is continually loading files so there is a queue of Loaders waiting to make requests.My idea was that if there was a different request that I needed to be executed straight away I could make it jump the queue by making a javascript call and allowing the browser to make the request instead.

I am designing a website with flash video content. If I pass in the URL to a .flv file as a flash parameter to the embedded video player someone can easily extract the URL and download the flv video file. How to do I prevent this? Can someone refer me to anti-leeching techniques being used my websites like youtube.

I am planning to develop a jigsaw puzzle, by designing the puzzle pieces in Photoshop (with each jigsaw piece on a separate layer) and then importing all PS layers into flash, to compile the game. I haven't been using AS3 for too long, but am reasonably happy with the progress I've been making and would like to take this step up in terms of complexity.
The pieces will be stored in an array (piecesAry). I want the pieces to each be registered to a Point on the playing board. For example, if there are 100 pieces in the jigsaw, each piece will have correct place in terms of a 10x10 matrix (10 rows x 10 columns). The unique Point for each piece will, I think, need to be stored in the piecesAry.
My query relates to how I am best assigning the unique Point to each individual piece. For example, to take again the example of the 100 piece jigsaw, would it be possible / effective to create an underlying 10 x 10 bitmap square grid, and have each piece of the grid assigned to an individual piece (the thinking being that the square grid can be "cut up" easier than the jigsaw once in flash).

Does anyone know of a site where I can download temporary SWF files to use as placeholders during web development? I've searched a lot on Google and can't dig anything up like this?
Was wondering if there is something similar to what http://placehold.it is for PNGs, but just need soemthing for SWFs.
I'd like to just grab one and use it to drop into my code, so all the Flash designer has to do is just replace the temporary SWF with the one that's going to be used on the live site.

As an experienced programmer in various environments (Linux,server side web development,etc), I was recently approached with an offer to do some Actionscript development.Somehow, it seems to me that unless one is artistically or visually creative or at least has some visual talent, one's Actionscript programming skills alone will not get you very far in flash development.Can one be a superb flash developer without having to make any artistic decisions, relying on graphic artists to tell you what to do? Or, should I stick to server side coding where I know I can add real value, even excel.

I am trying to download the free Flash Media Development Server 3.5 for Mac. When I go to the download section to download this server, there are two options for me to pick, the first one is: English | Linux | 274 MB and the second is: English | Windows | 274 MB.
and so my problem is that there is no option for Mac OS and I am wondering why?? is there a way that I can download this for mac, do I have to do something with Linux?

The main top section of the site is a little Flash thing that has buttons as links to different areas of the site. All of that is well and good, but whenever I click those links, it has to reload the entire page (including the Flash app) when only the bottom part changes. This isn't really a huge issue, since everything's real small, but it's kind of annoying.I vaguely remember "fixing" this behavior using AJAX during my web programming class, but that was just straight HTML and Javascript, no Flash players to muck around with.My question is, how do I overcome having to reload the entire page when someone clicks a link from the Flash object? Is there some nice way I can call something other than getURL() to achieve this effect?

I've recently been working on some bigger projects in Flash and would really like to be able to use Test Driven Development but haven't found a great way to do so. I'd imagine its a bit harder to do in flash as most of its projects require heavy user interactivity (drag and drop with mouse, keyboard input to move etc...).

I was reading that certain API's are not available when making iPhone apps with flash, such as accessing the camera. Is it possible to still get information from the web and display it in the app using the flash method? The overall plan is to have it pull data from an SQL database using XML, and I was just wondering if that was possible still with flash.

I am thoroughly surprised that there is no Flash Hidden Features post yet in the Hidden Features series that I've been tracking for a while now. There is a recent AS3/Flex one but it's not very active and I don't exactly mean just AS3 when I say Flash here.The Hidden Features series is great for people who are new to a certain language. It shows the ropes and certain valuable tricks, all in one place. I think it's a brilliant idea. Even experts sometimes find tricks they'd never heard about.When I started with Flash, I was taken aback by the Flash IDE and odd concepts of Flash, compared to other programming languages.what are some hidden features of Flash as a language (AS2/3) and the Flash IDE?

There's clearly a bunch of new stuff in Flash 10, I'm seeing a bunch in the Graphics class so far. Struggling a bit to reconcile it with what I know already but it looks useful - render lists and 3D transforms, etc - however I wondered if there are good arguments for targeting Flash 9 since I can definitely manage without all the new stuff I don't know. Like support on non-Windows devices, wide adoption of Flash 9 Vs 10, etc.
