Display my twitter in Flash

Hello,
I want to display my tweets in flash using as3. Is there any tutorial teach me how to do that. please ?!
Regards,

this is an excerpt from a recently published book i wrote, http://www.amazon.com/Flash-Game-Development-Social-Mobile/dp/1435460200/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF 8&qid=1373033301&sr=8-1&keywords=gladstien
Two main steps are needed to use requests that requires authentication. First, you must register your game with Twitter. Second, you must either implement the OAuth protocol or use a library like Tweetr that implements the protocol.
Game Registration
To use requests that require authentication (and those for which it is supported), you must first register your game with Twitter at https://dev.twitter.com/apps/new. (See Fig11-12.)
***Insert Fig11-12.tif***
               [The Twitter application registration page at https://dev.twitter.com/apps/new.]
Fill out their form, agree with all those rules, prove you are a human being by filling out the Captcha form and click the Create your Twitter application button. You should see Fig11-13.
***Insert Fig11-13.tif***
               [After successful registration, copy your Consumer key and secret.]
Copy your Consumer key and Consumer secret. You will need both to make authenticated requests on behalf of users. These numbers are used by Twitter to identify your game when a user gives your game permission to make requests on their behalf.
Click the Settings tab (see Fig11-14) and add an icon or change your settings, if needed. In particular, note the Application Type settings. If you need more than read-access, tick the Read and Write or Read, Write and Access direct messages.
***Insert Fig11-14.tif***
               [The Twitter application registration page at https://dev.twitter.com/apps/new.]
Click the Update this Twitter application's settings if you made any changes or additions.
Tweetr
Tweetr is a free open-source ActionScript library that implements the OAuth protocol and allows your game to make Twitter requests that require authentication. Setting up your game to use Tweetr is a multi-step process.
All the needed files are in support files/Chapter 11/twitter/authentication. But to ensure you have the latest files go to http://wiki.swfjunkie.com/tweetr.
Download and extract swcs.zip
Download and extract oauth_template.zip
Download and extract docs.zip
Download and extract proxy.zip
Add tweetrWEB swc to your library path extracted from the swc.zip.
Go to http://code.google.com/p/as3crypto/downloads/list and download as3crypto.swc
Add as3crypto.swc to your library path. (See Fig11-15.)
Find the js folder extracted in step 2 and upload it to your server.
Find the proxy folder (that contains index.php, install.php and Tweetr.php) extracted in step 4 and upload to your website.
Open your website's install.php file in your browser and follow the steps to create the needed files. Here is a walk-through: http://wiki.swfjunkie.com/tweetr:howtos:installing-the-proxy
Create a verified.html page and upload it to your server:
Create twitter.html, your swf's embedding html page, and upload it to your server:
Upload the swfObject folder from support files/Chapter 11/twitter/authentication
***Insert Fig11-15.tif***
               [You should have both TweetrWEB.swc and as3crypto.swc in your library path and both should have Link Type: Merged into code. Your paths will be different from that shown.]

You can try if it works if you disable OOPP (Out-Of-Process-Plugins) for Flash
You can set the prefs dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.* to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process.
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled (currently false by default)

To Display SWF file or Flash file in Web Page Composer (WPC)

Hi,
I am goning to add & display 'swf file or flash file' in <b>Web Page Composer</b>.
But it is not allowing me to do so.I tried by three ways
1} to upload this file directly from local machine & to add in WPC
2}By using linklist option
3}By creating KM Document iview;which contain swf file.& then adding that iview in wpc.
but at last it is not displaying though allowing to add it in WPC.

Vishal -
First... we are all new to WPC!
Second, no I don't think you need to create a new container. I think that you just need to add the swf type as an allowed type for the container.
So...
Figure out which container you are trying to add the flash file to (as you mentioned, A1, A2, etc).
Navigate to:
Sys Admin --> Sys Config --> Knowledge Mgt --> Content Mgt --> WPC --> Containers.
Edit the container you want to use.
There will be a box named Allowed Mime Types.
In here, select the "swf" mime type (make sure the check box is checked). Then Save.
At my company, we had the WPC ramp up from SP12, and are now on SP13.
I'm not sure what you get if the first time you had WPC is SP13, but for us I see two default A1 (and A2...B1..C4...etc) containers -- one that has "default" in the name and one that has "def" in the name. From what I see, SP13 WPC uses the one with "def" in the name, not "default". So, make sure you modify the one with "def" in the name.
After you make this change, you should see "swf" in the list inside the container when you are editing a page.
Is this clearer? I wish I could attach a screenshot.

My Apple display power button is flashing short-short-long.

My Apple display power button is flashing short-short-long. I know what it means and I checked everything and everything seems fine. What can I do to ensure everything is really fine and the flashing stops. The computer and the display worked fine for over a year. It started doing it when I switched my computer off using the power button on the display. it never happened before.
thanks!

What you might try is unplugging the monitor at it s ADC connexion to the video card and the plugging it back in - all with the Mac turned on and everything working (and flashing).
I had an LCD/ADC flatscreen monitor that would dim the top half of the screen and start flashing whenever I would run Disk Warrior or Applejack or switch to a different startup drive. Simply unplugging and replugging would return it to normalcy - for days or weeks - but sooner or later.... Grew tired of waiting for it to go altogether and bought another monitor, but I tried it the other day on a spare Mac and - sure enough - it started up dim and flashing. Remedy was the same: unplug and replug the ADC connexion and it was back to normal. No idea why!
No guarantee, and no idea how long it might last, but the effort is small and the price is right.

Any way to display a message when Flash is not found on the iPad?

Apple is obviously rejecting Flash to protect it's 'App' revenue. I've been on Android phones that run Flash and display all my content perfectly smooth. It can be quite frustrating how they are trying to bury it when I still have yet to see HTML5 replicate the type of interactive content Flash is capable of producing.
Is there any way to display a message on the iPad when the Flash player is not found?
I'd like it to says something along the lines of:
"Unfortunately the Apple iPad does not support the Flash player because their business interests do not want it taking away from their App revenue.
Did you know that the Dell Streak, HTC Flyer, Blackberry Playbook, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Toshiba Thrive, and HP Touchpad all support the Flash player?"

Use swfobject for Flash detection and you can provide all kinds of alternate content... simple text, images, links, .js slideshow, a mov or mp4 video just for the iPhone... ANYTHING this is regular HTML. Your imagination is the only limit.
And YES, HTML5 is a far cry from replicating Flash... so give them the best of both worlds.
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/
Review this article which deals with Flash and SEO for more ideas:
If you think that Flash is somehow bad for SEO, it's time to dispell that MYTH!
If fact, in some circumstances I'll use Flash INSTEAD of just HTML because then I'll have better SEO than with just HTML alone.
http://www.worldbarefootcenter.com/
The link to World Barefoot Center in the above post is just one example. View the source code and you see a couple paragraphs of text along with regular HTML links.... but what displays is the Flash version of the image and Flash links.
The client provided the artwork for the page... and that's what they wanted to use a .jpg image. Well yes, that could be done in HTML but it would be virtually invisible to Google. So Instead I converted the image into a Flash .swf and used swfobject to display the Flash. swfobject allows you to create alternate content inside the <div> which also holds the Flash .swf, then when the page is loaded it detects if the browser has the Flash pluggin. If it does, it displays just the Flash content, if not, it displays the alternate content. Since almost everyone has the Flash pluggin, for most people the Flash version of the <div> will display.
The alternate content for that <div> can be any regular HTML text, images, media player, links, etc., anything that you would use if you were not using the Flash. Now the best part is that the alternate content can be "over the top" as far as optimizing for SEO, since it will not be seen by most viewers.
Here's another example of SEO with Flash.. again, the page is just a single image provided by the client:
http://www.ksowetsuits.com/
View the source code. The alt content is paragraph after paragraph of information about the site, including lists and links. If it was just the HTML, it might be kind of a boring Home page. But for SEO I can go "over the top" in promoting the site, since most viewers will never see that part... but it's all indexed by search engines. The end result is BETTER SEO using Flash than just HTML.
On another Web site, a Flash video is displayed, the alt content is the complete text narration of the video. Now how many people would take the time to read that if they could just watch the video instead?? again, better SEO with Flash than without. In fact in one case we had first page search result from that video narration within 4 hours of posting the page.
On still another site with a Flash video, the alt content is another video, but a .mov version, which will, in effect play Flash video on the iPhone (not possible you say??). Well since the iPhone does not have Flash pluggin, it simply displays the .mov version of the video, while everyione else sees the Flash version.
So anyway, if Flash is a part of your Web development, you should look into using swfobject and alternate content.

Pictures not being displayed on twitter

Certain pictures on twitter are not being displayed on firefox but work fine in internet explorer
an example page is http://pic.twitter.com/flmKKGz8
with firefox there is no piture just the message, when looked at in internet explorer the big pucture under the message can be seen

Hello Cor-el Thanks for the advise, I checked a few things as you mentioned and it turned out that the ad-block add-on was preventing the pictures loading, very strange as it doen't do it anywhere else on pictures, but all rectified now.
Thanks again :)

Using CSS and Javascript to display a div with flash in it, mozilla reloads the flash file!

I am using CSS and Javascript to display a div with an
embedded flash object in it. Mozilla Firefox reloads the flash file
when the div is displayed! (I dont want this to happen, as it's
unexpected functionality, my expectation would be that the flash
file would not change it's state at all, and would remain in
whatever state it was left in.)
I was wondering if anyone has come across this issue and is
there something I can do to prevent this from occurring?
To be more specific, I have a single HTML page with 8 flash
files embedded in it (yeah I know, it's a bit much). I am then
using CSS and Javascript to display (via a numbered link (with an
id)) an equivalent numbered div tag containing the flash file.
Mozilla Firefox reloads the flash object that is in the div.
Internet Explorer will not do this and will instead, load the flash
object only upon initial view of the flash object. All subsequent
links (in IE) will NOT reload the flash object on the page. I'm
guessing this is some kind of difference in the flash player as an
Active X object and the plugin, or is it just IE being clever? Or
am I way off?
Anyway, here is the code...

How to display dynamic text in flash CS5....

i am using flash cs5...i created a game but when i m running it...it is showing a message saying "Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts""
and i am not getting my dynamic text output.......please hwlp me out!!!!!!

As the error message says, you need to embed the font(s) that you use in any input or dynamic text object so that Flash will have that font to use when displaying the dynamic text. There are several different ways to accomplish this. Are you using textField objects on the stage, or are you creating instances of textFields using Actionscript?

Problem in displaying Arabic text in flash cs3/cs4

Hi All, I'm creating one website. I have to display dynamic xmlize arabic text in flash. I have done it using flash cs3/AS3. But problem is that when text displays in flash it is not rendering as expected. Some gaps comes in the characters. But when I open my xml in browser, arabic text displays correct.
Is there any way to do it in flash cs3 or Flash cs4 using player 9? It would be really great if anyone can give me solution on this. Thanks
Chandrakant

You have to do it yourself - I don't have a ready solution. Just look into documentation how StyleSheets are used and see what properties work best for you:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.html
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/StyleSheet.html
Also, with embedded fonts you need to play with TextFormat settings and AntiAliasType
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/AntiAliasType.html
In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others.

Display Dynamic HTML beside Flash Chart in Chart Region

Hello,
I have a vertical 3D flash chart with some categories I,II,IV... on x-axix. I have to show a legend beside the chart dynamically depending on the categories displayed like (I - PC, II - TV, IV-Laptop....) First I tried to do this with static data. I modified, Region Source of Chart region to include the legend. I am successful to create a table & put some static html code. Now I want this to be dynamic.
I found that with shotcuts I can put dynamic HTML code. I created shortcut with PL/SQL & successfully displayed them in a 'HTML REGION WITH SHORTCUTS', but I want that in Chart Region, not as a separate region. Shortcut is not working in Chart region.
How can I achieve this? Is there a way to call a process or substitution string or some thing from Chart Region to display my legend dynamically beside the chart.
Experts any hint is appreciated.
Sowji.

Experts,
Can you please give any hint how this can be achieved? If I keep the dynamic legend as HTML with Shortcut region, the width & height are not matching with the chart region as it is dynamic. Also, I am unable to combine both 'chart' & 'html with shortcut' region to look like one region. So I am looking for options to insert the dynamic html in to chart region.
Sowji.

The new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.110 does not display images in the flash movie.

In the new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.110 the images are not displayed. In previous versions they are displayed. Tested on several computers. This is not a local problem. This is a problem of Adobe. The bad news is that the early versions are very hard to find and reinstall it.
Many different systems tested. And all browsers.
Now there is no big image.

hi i have noticed the same problem. also with Chrome and FP ver 11.5.31.2and Firefox and Safari with FP 11.5.502.110
it seems that MovieClipLoader class not returning onLoadInit event. I use to add a fadein function on loadInit to fade in the loaded images. with the latest Flash PLayer versions this is not activated so you cannot see the loaded images.
I have tested this on 3 different systems and the problem is the same. I have not updated my FP for IE. There, the older FP still works well.

Dynamic text not displaying when publishing for flash 8

This dynamic text works fine when the movie is published for
flash 7, but when i export for the flash 8 player it seems to be
invisible. Is there any obvious reason for this happenning?
thanks
jon

Ok, thanks, looks like you've pointed me in the right
direction. I havent fixed it yet though. Heres where i am at:
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.embedFonts = false;
now i can see my text. of course its using a default font.
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = "arial14b";
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.embedFonts = true;
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.text = "wasssup?";
eval(theTarget+".buttonPrime").tex.setTextFormat = my_fmt;
this isnt working. I have added a font object to the library
and linked it for actionscript using the monkier "arial14b".
however my text is quite invisible. i have checcked, 'export in
first frame' for the font object i even tried it with this
deselected. i have deselected the embed font option on the text
feild itself. that doesnt work either (unless i dont try to set the
text format, so long as i accept a default font, its fine).
so err, help?
confused
jon
ps further to this is have discovered more about this strange
behaviour. i can set the text to a different string, provided i do
not try to embed the font in any way. if i set the font to embed, i
can have the text display with the correct font, until i change the
text. then it dissappears. also i cannot seem to affect properties
like font size by means of my TextFormat object. the textFormat
object also does not seem to affect the font of the text.
in short, when exporting for flash 8, i cannot seem to
successfully embed fonts for dynamic text. the only thigs i have
gotten to work are: static text (or a dynamic text feild with
unchanged text) with an embedded font, or dynamic text with a
default font.

Display bug in the Flash update (10.0.2)

So I installed the Flash CS4 update that was released in May and for the most part I'm happy with the changes. There's at least one huge bug, though: the display doesn't update correctly when the start frame is changed on a graphic symbol via any means other than by typing it into the "first" box in the properties panel. This may not seem like a problem -- how else would you change it, after all? Well, by hitting "undo", for instance, after you changed it via the "first" box. Or via JSFL. That's the biggest problem for me: I have a bunch of JSFL commands I wrote that are pretty much integral to my animation process that changed the start frame of a graphic symbol, but the display no longer updates correctly when I use those.
So my question is: has anyone else run into this problem? I've encountered it on multiple installations so I'm pretty sure it's integral to the update. Has anyone figured out a way to fix it, or at least a workaround? Perhaps a way in JSFL to force a display update?
-David

Hi David,
Thank you very much for letting us know about this one. I hate to hear about this, and have reproduced both problems and filed them internally.
As for the JSFL, a workaround could be to manually select the Stage in JSFL:
document.setSelectionRect({left:0, top:0, right:0, bottom:0});
You could select an area of the Stage that contains the instance instead if you want it to remain selected.
Hope that helps, and thanks again for reporting,
Jen.
