It greatly depends on your intended purpose or “Use
Case” of your application really. So this is not something
simple to answer without knowing that. But the biggest reason I
chose Flex over traditional xHTML (Web 1.5 :) technologies is if
the application I am building needs to act and function more like a
desktop application rather then a WebSite. Think statefull vs.
stateless.
So for intranet applications, command and control
applications, generally anything that requires a rich UI and there
is no need for extensive SEO within the application. I would use
Flex.
For simple information sites with little user interactivity,
other then navigation, where a majority of the application is
simple text, (wiki's, pamphlet sites, ect...) or when I need to
make sure that the site is indexable by the major search engines
(not so much a problem anymore) then I use xHTML.
More and more however I find less and less of a reason to
drop back to any form of xHTML and am finding that just about
everything I would even need I can accomplish in Flex. Now that
Google and Yahoo are introspecting and indexing SWF files the SEO
is less of a problem (though not perfect yet).

Publishing site announcement list, calendar list not available even activating feature

" Team Collaboration List " feature is activated on publishing site. Again deactivated and activated, browser restarted, but the problem exists. No announcement list, task list, calendar list template found.
Please let me know the way to fix the issue.

Hi Shilabhadra,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to use announcement, task list, calendar list template at publishing site in SharePoint 2013.
Please try to use PowerShell commands to disable and enable " Team Collaboration List " feature at your publishing site. You can do as opening SharePoint 2013 Management Shell, then typing the following commands:
Disable-SPFeature –Identity 00BFEA71-4EA5-48D4-A4AD-7EA5C011ABE5 -url <the url of the publishing site>
Enable-SPFeature –Identity 00BFEA71-4EA5-48D4-A4AD-7EA5C011ABE5 -url <the url of the publishing site>
In the above commands, 00BFEA71-4EA5-48D4-A4AD-7EA5C011ABE5 is the identity of " Team Collaboration List " feature.

Add an item into announcement list in site collec. and repeat the same in all the sub webs' announcement list without using event receiver

hi,
I have a requirement: in my site collection i have an announcement list. and in my site collection some 600+ sub sites exist. sharepoint admin uploads an announcement into this rootweb's announcement list. now is there any way
i can add the same announcement -which has title, description, date time etc .- to all the 600+ sub sites' announcement list?
i know , if i write a list item event receiver i will be able to iterate through eacha nd every subweb of my site collec and add this item into those sub web's announcement list. But, without writing an event receiver and creating and deploying
another wsp and avoiding all those headache, is it possible to achieve this requirement?
any other approaches are highly appreciated!

Hi,
As a workaround, we can create a winform application for admin use only to add the item to all the sub web's announcement list.

Flex 3: Does Google Ignore URLs with # in Sitemaps?

Hi,
I'm making a sitemap for my Flex 3 site. Does Google ignore everything after the # in a url listed in a sitemap. For example, if my sitemap lists:
www.brainpinata.com/#
www.brainpinata.com/#view=2
www.brainpinata.com/#view=12
www.brainpinata.com/#view=15
Will the pages #view=2, #view=1, #view=15 be ignored?
How does Google handle # in sitemaps?
Thank you.
-Laxmidi

Now on FF 10.0.1
Thanks but that did not work.
I think it may have something to do with conditions that set cookies for MapsGL (for compatibility?) when the page is loaded because it all started when google added Experience MapsGL which never came up on maps.google.com.au instead I got the message "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML."
What ever it is, it probably has something to do with a cookie being set when the page loads and that triggers "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML." It could be the cookie is set and then read again or the cookie is set and it causes and error in a script.
could be advertising for chrome :( :D
Something like that would explain why disabling cookies or private browsing works but deleting cookies does not.
It's still strange that it happens on the .au site. Will keep looking because this is driving me crazy.
EDIT> to clear thing up maps.google.com.au loads the entire page but the little yellow guy is not yellow. (disabled) then if I try drag or use the map, then I get the error "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML."
I will do anything to track down the problem.
Not sure but error console has lots of error with and without cookies enabled but this one stood out and was only there with cookies enabled
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception...

Is it possible to display the content of a file in flex as it is written. E.G. a log file

I have flex app sitting on a Linux server.
I want to be able to spool the content of a file on the same server as the flex app to the users screen using say a textarea or similar.
The file is some type of log so its going to constantly have lines added. Is there a way to do this ? I am guessing I need to constantly refresh the flex app with the file content.

Yes you can. Small example for you:
[email protected]> select * from dept;

Flex 2 beta 3 tutorials

In Getting Started with Flex 2.0 (Adobe Flex 2.0 Help) it
says:
"Ensure that a tutorials directory was created in the samples
web
application when you unzipped the tutorials zip file on the
Beta site."
Anyone know where this zip file can be found and what Beta
site are they
talking about, or even know what a "samples web application"
is?
I can't find any tutorials zip file on Macromedia Flex 2
site.
Doug

Yes I have the tutorials, but as you work through them, you
come to one
tutorial which says:
Before you begin this tutorial, perform the following tasks:
� Ensure that you have installed the Flex 2.0 Beta 2
release and that
you can run the applications in the samples web application.
� Ensure that a tutorials directory was created in the
samples web
application when you unzipped the tutorials zip file on the
Beta site.
The directory should contain two MXML files named
completed1.mxml and
completed2.mxml. If you don't have a tutorials directory, the
use folder
names option may not have been enabled when you extracted
files from the
zip file.
I have downloaded everything I can find, but there are no
files on my
computer called completed?.mxml and I can't find any
tutorials zip file.

Flex 3 & Google Webmaster Tools' Keywords

Hi,
I've got a Flex 3 website. Unfortunately, Google Webmaster Tools lists zero keywords for my site. My site's been up for about a month. I submitted a sitemap. I've put a description and keywords metatags in the HTML wrapper.
Any advise on what else I should do?
Does anyone have a Flex 3 site for which Google Webmaster Tools lists keywords?
Thank you.
-Laxmidi

On my site, all Google does is extract "keywords" from the page title for Webmaster Tools. So, I only end up with two keywords! The page ranking uses the keywords you put into the META tags, and I get good results with page ranking. AFAIK, they are not the same thing. Try using desired keywords in the page title, but don't go overboard or they will penalize you.

ASV plugin to FLEX migration from Adobe?

Has Adobe provided any migration path from ASV 3 plugin to
Flex when they announced EOL for ASV plugin and recommended Flex
instead?
I thought it is just a pure common sense to make the
migration path smoother. Yes Adobe wanted to make money and that's
how Flex was born and ASV was trashed. Now, I see everyone is
struggling towards migration from ASV to other alternatives. No
luck there.
Are we supposed to re-write entire SVG generation code to
adapt to Flex technology? Just pure non-sense to me!

Duplicate HTTP requests from Flex app in Safari 4.0.3

We are currently trying to debug a problem a Mac user is having with our Flex based site, where almost every http operation he does is duplicated.
e.g.
"GET /path/file.xml HTTP/1.1" 200 3543 "https://www.site.com/index.jsp" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 1058; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.3 Safari/531.9"
Followed immediately by:
"GET /path/file.xml HTTP/1.1" 200 3543 "https://www.site.com/index.jsp" "Safari5531.9 CFNetwork/438.14 Darwin/9.8.0 (i386) (iMac9%2C1)"
Same with POSTs.
As you can see from the logs above, the weird thing (apart from the duplication) is that the two requests appear to have different user agents.
We unfortunately don't have much information about the user's machine config, and haven't been able to determine if they have the same problem with any other sites, Flex or otherwise.
Has anyone else noticed anything similar with Safari 4.0.3?

HI,
Go to ~Library/Internet Plugins. You should see: Glims
"/Library/InputManagers/Glims/Glims.bundle/Contents/MacOS/Glims"
Delete Glims from the system and restart your Mac.
If you need help uninstalling Glims go here.

As a Realtor I can't access documents on our ARMLS web site, the tech support say it is an adobe reader issue?

For some reason, suddenly I can't access the documents tab on our ARMLS web site. I called Tech support for the Flex web site and they say they can open the tab and read the docs fine.
They are saying it is an Adobe issue on my computer. I un installed adobe and reloaded but the same result.
Any ideas
Thanks
Craig

Yes, I just changed my browser to Internet Explorer and same result, I
still can not read any PDF documents loaded to this site.
I have not tried un installing adobe but that is next, then reinstalling
while in Explorer.

Performance of Flex reflection

Has anyone seen or known the performance issues when openning the Flex web sites that are based on reflection?
I know, in general, reflection would hurt performance, but just do not know how bad it is in Flex and ActionScripts.

I'm pretty sure getDefinition does a hash on the fully qualified name and
looks for it in a hash table. The believe the hash has to visit every byte
in the string.
You'll feel it on lots of instantiations, but probably not for typical
numbers. There's so much else going on it will probably get lost in the
noise.
However, don't call describeType. That's extremely expensive.

11.5.9 - SIT in SSHR

We are using 11.5.9. In SSHR, we are using SIT, I need to remove "Add Another Row" link from one of the SIT structure. We are restricting the users to only update. I checked the page personalization, but I am unable to fine any item related to "Add Another Row".
OR
Is there anyway to disable a segment with valueset attached in SSHR. I tried by giving Key flex SIT as "structure|Segment1($RO$)|Segment2. I bounced the apache also, still it didn't work. Does anyone has faced this problem in 11.5.9 ?
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: user1175432 on Jan 23, 2011 6:44 AM

You're referring to this SSHR SIT page, right?
/oracle/apps/per/selfservice/specialinformation/webui/PersonSitPG
To hide/show certain segments you personalize the Flex: Key flex for Sit item as follows:
YOUR_STRUCTURE_CODE|Segment 1 Name|Segment 2 Name|Segment 3 Name
eg:
XXABC_EXIT_INTERVIEWS|Reason For Leaving|Satifaction Level|Would You Return?
To hide/show the Add button you personalize the Submit Button: Add. If you're viewing the Complete View it's here:
Page > Stack Layout: Special Information > Table: Special Information > Table Actions > Flow Layout: (SitTableActions) > Submit Button: Add
Of course you mention you're on 11.5.9 so there's a chance you don't see the same as I see in the 11i environment I checked (I checked 11.5.10.2 FK.K RUP4). If you don't see the same, Oracle Support can advise if there are any backported patches to 11i that might deliver newer versions of the SSHR SIT page. If there's no patches available you're out of luck and will need to upgrade to a newer release (11.5.9 has been in Sustained Support since July 2008).

Custom SIT

Dear All,
I have created a SIT in UAE loclization for People - Enter & Maintain > Special Information. its working perfectlly with all his segments (as per KFF). Now same SIT I want to bring in Employee Self Service.
These steps i followed :
1. Find which menu is attached to your responsibility
2. Find the your menu and check for special information (Function)
3. Query the seeded special information type function and create a custom function with same properties of seeded function but with same changes
4. Copy and paste the type from seeded
5. Copy and paste the parameters for you custom function and do a little change. Paste ur function in highlighted place.
6. Do the same changes for Web HTML as well.
7. Add the custom function under this menu (HR_GLOBAL_SS_FUNCTIONS_CUSTOM)
8. Add the function again in the menu that you using in your responsibility
Now SIT is appearing in functions list , its opening without any error, but the SEGMENTS ARE NOT COMING IN SELF SERVICE.
Thanks & Regards,
Archana

Hi,
Make sure you perform the following steps to configure the SIT in SSHR:
1. On the SIT page click on this link Personalize "Special Information Types" on top of any of the SIT tables.
2. Click on the personalize "pen" image for the row "Flex: Key flex for Sit"
3. In the page that follows one of the rows is "Segment List". This is where you personalize to show the SITs that you do want.
Say, you have 3 SITs in your page A, B, C with corresponding segment names a1, a2, a3 for A, b1, b2, b3 for B and c1, c2, c3 for C and you want to hide B. In the segment list text box, enter the segment list for the other two only "A|a1|a2|a3||C|c1|c2|c3".
In this string, "A" is the internal context Code of SIT A, not the Title.
The segments a1|a2|a3 represent the segment's Name, not the Column.
Example: COST_ALLOCATION|Proportion|Location|Classification|Account|Cost Center|Product Line|Sub-Account|Minor Location|Inter-Location||EXPATRIATE_INFORMATION|Expat Indicator|Tax Service|Host Country|Assignment Start Date|Return Date|Host Salary|Host Currency
4. Click the Apply button.
5. Click the link Return to Application (bottom left of screen). You should now only see the SITs you specified.
6. Click on the Add button to enter the SIT. You will see the segments for the first SIT even if it was hidden. The next steps take care of that situation.
7. Click on the link Personalize "Special Information" from with the Add page.
8. Again, click on the personalize "pen" image for the row "Flex: Key flex for Sit"
9. In the page that follows, enter the exact same string used in Step 3 into the "Segment List" row again. Click the Apply button.
10. Click the link Return to Application (bottom left of screen). You should now have the restricted view of SITs on all your pages.
Regards,
Muzzamil Khan

Concurrent actions in Flex question

Thanks for the link to LightGauge (nice component!). Could
someone point me towards docs/links where I can learn how I might
feed a component with ongoing info e.g.
channel.leftPeak;
channel.rightPeak;
while still allowing the user to type in information etc and
the app carry on as usual? Flex is not multithreaded, right, so one
cannot just spawn a thread that takes care of pushing the data to
the sound visualizer, and carry on "as normal". So when it comes to
multiple GUI components doing things, is it all about event
generation/listening/processing where many events are processed in
quick succession and not concurrently, but the speed allows it to
behave as though concurrent? ( I know what I mean :-). So channel
emits events that can be trapped and sent to a GUI meter and this
is so fast that the rest of the GUI can still listen and respond.
Timers can be used of course, but I am presuming we have progressed
from that necessity :-). Thanks in advance,
Mic.

I'm not really answering myself :-) ... It looks like if one
creates a project within Flex as an Actionscript project, one can
have
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
public class EncapsulationExample extends Sprite {
public function EncapsulationExample() {
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
private function onEnterFrame(evtObj:Event):void {
trace("Hello from onEnterFrame");
i.e the use of EnterFrame for animation e.g. a stereo vu
meter ....
but I think this would preclude using the <mx:> tag
where all the lovely Flex Gui sits.
