Flash-flex interaction

Hello everybody,
I'm a webmaster who has a pretty complete knowledge of Flash CS3, PHP and MySQL. I'd like to build dynamic Flash website: what kind of tool is the best to develop them? I was thinkin to CS5WebPremium, if the flex developped projects are fully supported in FlashCS5 (I want to build the dynamic side with flex, and the graphical side with FlashCS5). Could you recommend the best choice?
Thanks a lot

Flash, Flex, AIR Which is best for producing small interactive apps?

Hi
I posted to the flash forum but really looking for feedback from flash, flex, AIR users as well
I'm looking for the forums thoughts and advice on which of Adobe's current technology set (CS5) is best suited for creating small interactive applications/packages by users who would not have any background in coding and very little interest in learning coding.
The idea is that users would know basic drag & drop development and maybe extend it to include some basic scripting to wire up elements of it. The ability to develope applications for a range of access points (website, mobile, desktop) would also an added benefit
The over arching idea would be to let the users create some apps/programmes/packages quickly on any topic they like but not bog them down with coding
Which CS5 technologies would be best for that

I don't see how it would be any different for mobile than for desktop, considering the biggest difference is frame-size.
Flash Builder is very good at building fluid layouts. VERY good. By extension, Catalyst, built on the same framework, should be too (haven't seen the final version, but the betas were looking good in this regard).
The entire platform has been getting optimized for mobile creation lately, and CS5 should have a lot of tooling towards that end.
I would suggest downloading the trial version of the softwares when they are released (supposed to be mid-may) and playing around with it before you decide.
If you want to, you can hit up labs.adobe.com to download the beta of Catalyst right now, which might give you the answers you need. (Flash Builder was already released, and is available on adobe's site for trial download currently)

Playback of flv using Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Media Interactive Server jerky.

Greetings:
Thanks for taking time to read this.
Here is our problem:
Playback of flv using Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Media Interactive Server jerky.
Playback ok if using Flash Player 10.0 with Flash Media Interactive Server.
1. Record live using Flash Media Interactive Server
2. Attempt to play back resulting flv using Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Media Interactive Server.
Video plays ok for a few seconds and then plays faster than as recorded -- very jerky.
Audio plays at normal rate.
OS: Windows 7 64bit (two different machines. All updates installed.)
Web browser: FireFox 3.6.10 and IE8 8.0.7600.16385
Flash version: 10.1.85.3
Tried with hardware acceleration on and off.
Note: Also had another person report the same thing on a Mac.
We had been using Flex 3, so we tried building with Flash Builder 4 – had the same problem.
This is a show stopper for us.
Tried using Wowza and everything worked.
We’re dropping FMIS and switching to Wowza.
If someone can suggest something else to try, we would appreciate it.

Hi Greg,
So if I understand correctly, your findings are:
Flash Player 10.1.85.3 + Flash Media Interactive Server = Jerky Video
Flash Player 10.0.x.x + Flash Media Interactive Server = Smooth Video
Flash Player 10.1.85.3 + Wowza = Smooth Video
And what about Flash Player 10.0.x.x + Wowza?
Also, if you could check the network traffic to confirm if it's Flash Player causing the issue or it is receiving it like that from FMIS.
Cheers

How to use a Flash/Flex GUI for DW Extensions

I am creating a DW extension for an image and flash gallery.
The extension will be accessible from the Insert menu. Once
clicked, it would present me with a Flash/Flex form to
search/browse for images/swf by file name or tags. Once I select an
image/swf and clicked OK, it would insert into my webpage the
absolute URL associated with the image/swf. The problem is I am not
aware of how to create an extension with a Flash/Flex GUI.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
srtr4k

You should check out the Flash panels and Dialogs section of
the Dreamweaver API reference. Here is a link.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_API_Ref/WS4FB61645-9C4E-4667-B6D4-0E5F553BEF4 F.html
This gives you direct access to Flash panels and dialogs from
the Dreamweaver Javascript API. Adobe is working on a document for
how to create CSXS based Flash Extensions. CSXS based extensions
only work as a floating panel that surface themselves in the
Windows, Extensions menu.

Compiling an existing as3 packag with flex sdk (for a flash/flex/as beginner)

Hi
I am new to flash, flex, mxml, and actionscript (with a strong background in c, python, and scheme and some background in Java, VBA, and Javascript). I have a website for which I would like to develop some simple swf content. Basically, I would like to load esri shp files at runtime (and display a series of them as an animation) using these APIs.
I have read through some flex getting started material, but I have found that there is no better way to learn a framework/language than to look at and modify existing code. Happily, I've found a sample that is both salient to my project and about the right level of complexity.
I have the Flex SDK 3 and have created some simple movies. However, I haven't managed to compile the example as3 source code to a successful swf movie. I'd like to write mxml for layout/structure and as3 for functionality, and compile with mxmlc, period. Most examples I've found use of Flex Builder, Adobe Air plugins, other IDEs, etc and so they aren't very helpful.
Here is a link to the content I'm interested in, and more importantly the as3 source packages (zip or browesable) that I'd like to compile. There are two: ManualCartogramTest.as and USStatesCartogramExample. I can use mxmlc to compile either one sucessfully, but the resulting swf file displays nothing. It seems that I should use the ManualCartogramTest class to create an instance of it, but none of my efforts have worked.
Can anyone help out? How should I generate the swf movie given one of these packages? What key piece am I missing?
Jeff
For completeness, here is another example using the shp/dbf packages (from the creator) that I just can't figure out what to do with.

1. Perhaps this wasn't the right forum.
2. I had to use set -use-network=false to enter "local-with-filesystem" mode. Unfortunately, it took a while before I finally used a flash player that told me the problem instead of silently failing. The linux standalone or linux debugger from adobe was key! Gnash, swfdec, and my firefox plugin hid the problem.

Faces expression in Javascript? Flash/Flex and Faces Session Variables

Does anyone know how to add a faces expression in Javascript?
I basically want to pass a Faces Variable to Flash/Flex. The best way to do that would be in Javascript.
I thought it would be fairly easy. Something like:
                    <webuijsf:script binding="#{Page1.script1}" id="script1" >
                        function foo() {
                          var text = #{Page1.textField1.text};
                          alert(text);
                    </webuijsf:script>Or something like that, and hope that the Faces expression will be expanded before sent to the browser. Unfortunately, that's not happening:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet Faces Servlet threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /Page1.jsp(16,38) #{..} is not allowed in template textWhen ran in the HTTP context of NetBeans.
Edited by: Neelixx on Apr 5, 2008 4:42 PM - Clarified using more javascript example

Have a look at Shared Objects, I think these are the sort of
thing you are after. I think the "Specifying a path" subtopic
should be particularly relevant for sharing the variables/objects
between the two swf files.

Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5

Hey, I am thinking about making a web site that streams HD movies and videos that I have created myself. I was wonder could you use Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 to do so I know i would have to buy a dedicated server and a fast one with a good load of bandwidth. The big question am asking is that can you base a website or content management system around the interactive server.

FMS isn't reall suiatable for serving a website or CMS. I suppose you -could- use the included Apache installation to handle your HTTP traffic, but it would require installing a database, an application server, and whatever else you would need. You'd then need to maintain the installation yourself... FMS doesn't have any sort of package manager to handle updating Apache or anything else you might want to attach to it.
I think you'd be better off using a package manager like Plesk or Cpanel, and let it take care of your httpd server and supporting services. My advice is to just use FMS for purposes that specifically call for it.

Losing portal context when URL is submitted from flash/flex portlet

Hi, I am losing portal context when URL is submitted from action scripting in Flash/Flex portlet. I have selected the remote webservice portlet to use inline refresh. The jsp page is opening up in complete browser window instead of showing in portlet section.
below is the code snippet i am using.
<mm:mxml>
     <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="400" height="200">
     <mx:Script><![CDATA[
     public function submitToBrowser():void {
     var url:String = "formsubmit.jsp";
     var u:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
     var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
     variables.name = fName.text;
     u.data = variables;
     u.url = url;
     u.method = "POST";
     navigateToURL(u,"_self");
     ]]></mx:Script>
          <mx:Form id="myForm" defaultButton="{mySubmitButton}">
          <mx:FormItem label="User Name">
          <mx:TextInput id="fName" name="fName"/>
          </mx:FormItem>
          <mx:FormItem label="Password">
          <mx:TextInput id="password" displayAsPassword="true"/>
          </mx:FormItem>
          <mx:FormItem>
          <mx:Button label="Submit" id="mySubmitButton"
          click="submitToBrowser();"/>
          </mx:FormItem>
          </mx:Form>
     </mx:Application>
</mm:mxml>

inline refresh modifies javascript, not flex. Maybe try an iframe?

Why does Flash/Flex Builder 4 Premium downgrade to Standard when I install Flash Player Debug?

Why does Flash/Flex Builder 4 Premium downgrade to Standard when I install Flash Player Debug?
I installed a corporate install of Flex/Flash Builder 4 Premium, and verified that it was the Premium version was installed. The Start Page said that Flash Player was needed to display the text, so I installed Flash Player 10 Debug -- first download link from here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
When I then started Flex Builder 4, the splash screen showed Premium, but as soon as the Start Page was visible, it showed "FB Adobe Flash Builder 4 Standard" --- Help | About showed Standard, and the splash screen from then on showed Standard.
A Google search showed a work around for this, but it requires a license for Premium, which I don't have because our corporate install has it built-in:
http://bloginblack.de/2010/05/adobe-master-collection-cs5-breaks-flash-builder-4-premium-a nd-how-to-fix-it/
1. Anyone know how to resolve this?
2. Can Adobe fix this?
Thanks!

I had similar problem. I was involved in Flash Builder prerelease program and few months later I installed Adobe CS5 Master Collection. After that I had a same situation. Best thing was, my Flash Builder Beta was Premium version but acted like Standard, and FB from CS5 was Standard but acted like Premium. I removed CS5 and beta version of CS5. used CS5 Cleaning Fix and then reinstalled my apps.
I was lucky that I didn't have many big projects involved in FB beta or CS5 workspaces, I heard some guys had problems with migrated workspace configurations but I don't know what was the problem.

Open source debugger for Flash, Flex and AIR

As developers at De Monsters we weren’t totally happy
with the current Flash, Flex or AIR debuggers out there. So we
decided to create our own debugger called De MonsterDebugger. Today
we’ve got a great new version that we want to share with the
community for free.
Interface
screenshot
De MonsterDebugger started out as an internal tool that
helped us with the development of different ActionScript 3
projects. The past several months we’ve been working on a new
version of this internal tool. With this new version you can
explore your live application, adjust properties and run methods
all at runtime. You can trace objects of any type (String, Array,
XML or even custom classes) to De MonsterDebugger and it will show
the complete structure of that object in an easy-to-read tree
structure. De MonsterDebugger is made with Adobe Flex and brought
to the desktop with Adobe AIR.
Because De MonsterDebugger isn’t our core business
we’re giving it away for free! All the sourcecode is open
source available under the GNU General Public license.
Enough talking!

Oracle iLearning, Flash learning interaction implementation

I am new in iLearning. I am developing contents and assessments for uploading to iLearning. Instead of using iLearning assessment builder, I have used Flash learning interaction (SCORM). I have created several test with Flash learning interaction but i don't know how to upload it to iLearning since it is not only a question bank but also a assessment for enroll. I think the concept in iLearning (question bank and assessment is separated) has slightly difference.
Does anyone can tell me how to do it? or anyone has experience for developing assessment using third-party tools?

You would use the SCORM or AICC import options for this, depending on what tracking method is used with the content.
