Newbie needing a bit of direction

Hello,
Hoping someone can tell me what I should download to get
started in my Flex evaluation. I have a java/jsp web app running in
Tomcat on a Windows platform. It accesses a MySQL database. It also
generates charts. I use Eclipse IDE. I want to create the same web
app in Flex with all the same technologies behind the Flex app,
i.e., Eclipse IDE, Tomcat web server, MySQL database on Windows.
Question is, "Is this possible?". If so what do I need to
download from this Adobe site to get going?
TIA,
Brian Barnett

Yeah, from what I've been reading, Flex has the ability to
access all manner of server-side objects, and has very good support
for interfacing with Java. I'd recommend getting the Flex Builder
plugin for Eclipse--it installed very smoothly with my Eclipse
installation.
You pretty much just need Flex Builder to get started. Of
course, you don't have to use it.

  • Help! Newbie needs a bit of advice :)

    Trying to put up a website in tables & cells....can't
    seem to get answers to a couple of Q's.
    Any experts out there that could offer insight would be much
    appreciated!
    Here's the sitch :
    Down the left side of my page is a list of services, I want a
    mouseover action on each of these services to cause the HTML text
    to the right of the services list to change to an explanation of
    that service, and to change the picture to the right of that text
    (in yet another cell) to a picture of that service. So one
    mouseover will cause both of the two neighboring table cells to
    change their content. THE TEXT IS IN HTML and cannot be an image
    for SEO purposes.
    The second question regards a different page. I have text
    that is too big for its table cell. I was wondering how to put a
    scroll bar in a table cell.
    If anyone knows the answer or can point me in the right
    direction it would be so helpful!!
    Thanks :)

    Your going to have to use some kind of layer/s for that.
    Use 'settextofLayer' under the 'behaviours' in Dreamweaver.
    Heres an article explaining how to use it:

    Here an article form the same website detailing how to put a
    scrolling
    area into a table cell:

  • Need 256 Bit AES Full Disk Encryption for a Mac.  The other discussions regarding this issue are very old.  Does anyone have any current advice regarding encryption software?

    Does anyone have any advice regarding 256 bit full disk encryption software for Macs?  The other discussions on the topic are years old, so I would like some current input.  Thanks for your help in advance.

    Depending on your Mac, you might not want to upgrade to OS X 10.7 or 10.8 as it will not run the PowerPC based software your currently using costing a bundle to replace it all, also they will slow down your machine if it's not a more recent issue. You don't want to upgrade OS X without AppleCare defending your possibly bricked logicboard that's for sure.
    Filevault encrypts the boot drive, however in doing so makes it near impossible to fix if you have a software issue and need to recover files directly or by using specialty software. Also it robs the machine of performance even more than the Lions do. So you will really need a SSD to work best with 10.7/10.8 and Filevault, then it has to be freshly installed. Filevault needs 50% free space on the boot drive, then it's going to write to the slower 50% half of the hard drive where performance is terrible compared to the first 50%.
    Also Filevault is cracked under certain conditions, and if someone gets their hands on the machine (like the law) and knows what they are doing.
    If you take your Filevaulted machine to Apple to fix, they are going to require the password to fix the machine obviously.
    Software based encryption is vulnerable, you might want to instead place your sensitive data on external self-encrypting hardware that doesn't rely upon software or computer hacks/bypasses (ike freezing the RAM) to get to it.
    http://www.datalocker.com/products/datalocker-dl3.html
    Iron Keys for portable USB self encryption, both work with any computer, so your not locked into one platform.
    With the senstive data off the computer and on a external device, there is the option of removing, hiding and securing the device. If used with a computer that's never connected to the Internet, it's safe from snoopers, except from a survelliance van parked outside your door.

  • Due to our operating system we only have 32 bit, purchased lightroom 6 and download cancelled as says needs 64 bit, is there a 32 bit version i can get, otherwise need money back

    due to our operating system we only have 32 bit, purchased lightroom 6 and download cancelled as says needs 64 bit, is there a 32 bit version i can get, otherwise need money back

    thanks for that, but having tried the various options, still not managed to organize a refund, or anything for that matter, been on hold now for 25 minutes, first time was for 17 minutes, spoke to someone who was putting me thorough, to then have automated message saying issue could not be dealt with and it then hung up! been on to live chat and this was posted: -
    Chat
    24 hours a day, 7 days a week
    Chat is currently closed
    Which would be funny if i havent already spent 3 1/2 hours trying to sort this. I am really not enjoying my adobe experience, never known such a difficult company to speak to a 'live' person. Now on hold for 29 minutes and need to go out so nothing to be done now until tomorrow. If there is a real person from Adobe reading this, i would appreciate a call/direct email to get this resolved. now 31 minutes and I have to hang up as need to go!!! aarrgghhh!!!

  • MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing wirelessly to XP shared printer

    MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing to XP shared printer
    Bear with me please. I read tons of articles on this but somehow as a newbie to MAC (girlfriends sick daughter), I am missing something. 10.5.2
    Currently, she can print directly if we plug in the HP Deskjet printer directly via USB to the MACBook. No problem.
    When we first got the MACBOOK I tried setting up the MACBOOK wirelessly to recognize the workgroup where the printer was attached via USB to the Windows XP PC. However it printed out garbage since I did not know there was a difference between XP printing and MAC (Gutenberg/gimp printing/drivers).
    Now I know there is a difference.
    But in reading various instructions, I no longer can find how to connect the MAC to the Windows workgroup. Note we do have a printer set up currently as USB-HP Deskjet on the Macbook (not sure I need to delete it yet).
    I went to System Preferences on MACBOOK and clicked on printers, more printers. In the drop down box was CANON, APPLETALK, IP HP printing and Firewire. There was no WINDOWS selection as I saw in other online web instructions.
    So not sure how to proceed to find a way to:
    1. Connect to Windows workgroup (click on what exactly), step by step please!!
    2. Add correct HP Deskjet 5490 printer (perhaps there is one with Gutenberg or perhaps I need Gutenprint-really not sure what I am talking about)
    Thanks so much in advance. Fiancé's kid has had her cancer recur in a different place and someone was nice enough to buy her a MACBOOK as a gift.
    Sincerely
    Peter

    Any chance of posting the Protocol you used to connect to your printer with your laptop?  I'm have the exact same problem printing from my MB.  Same error message "..is busy".

  • USB Hotsync needs 32-bit hardware or software? or both?

    I made the mistake of buying a new computer without knowing I needed 32-bit to do a USB Hotsync.  My new computer is 64-bit hardware. However, I got a 3-year service package from HP and they've offered to send me a 32-bit Windows XP OS installation disk if I want it. They said it will work, you can install a 32-bit OS on a 64-bit computer.
    Their question is, and my question for you is, do I need a 32-bit HARDWARE to do the USB sync, or will the 32-bit OPERATING SYSTEM (software) on a 64-bit computer do the trick? Does anyone know? Palm wouldn't tell me ("unsupported device"), and I can't find it anywhere.
    I want to avoid doing the bluetooth thing if possible, since reading that people have problems syncing docs-to-go with bluetooth and I don't want to have to buy a bluetooth device and have to try to figure out which one will work with my particular set up. I'm pretty addicted to docs-to-go.
    BTW I have a Zire 72 that I can't live without (poor memory/organizational skills) and my new computer is an HP EliteBook 8440p currently running 64-bit Windows 7. 
    I'd rather avoid installing a new OS (and reinstalling everything else) if it's not going to help.
    Thanks to anyone who has an idea, suggestion, or experience to share.

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Can photoshop CS5.5 work on a 32 bit processor or does it need 64 bit.  It keeps crashing on 32 bit.

    My photoshop CS 5.5 keeps crashing all the time.  Can photoshop CS5.5 work on a 32 bit processor or does it need 64 bit.  I am running it on 32 bit.  Could this be the problem?

    Hi, thanks for that.  I just had a live chat with adobe and they sent me
    through the system specs for CS5.5 and it said a 64 bit processor, nothing
    about 32 bit, but I have no doubt you are correct because I do think I may
    have read that somewhere else myself.  I am not computer savvy so am loathe
    to uninstall etc.  Am looking to update my computer and getting CS6 so
    hoping that will sort the problem out.  Do you know much about plugs in?  I
    do have a few plug ins such as topaz adjust, nik silver efex, imagenomic and
    one one perfect photo suite 7.  It has been suggested to me that I uninstall
    them all but again not too good at that sort of thing. 
    Thanks for replying to my query.  I appreciate it.

    I need to go to this web site for a job app. it won't let me submit my information because it says I need 128 bit encryption

    Firefox does support 128 bit encryption, so you can ignore that warning on the browser check page.
    *http://www.opm.gov/e-QIP/browser-check.asp
    If websites complain about 128 bit encryption not available then that can be caused by the "U;" that is no longer present in the Firefox user agent.

    Firefox supports 256 bit encryption ciphers since Firefox 2 was released in 2002.
