Should I start with Flash?

I have decided to teach myself how to build and design web
pages. I have illustration background, so I have an eye for what
looks good. However I am a newbie to web development. I wanted to
know if I should start by teaching myself Flash? Or should I start
somewhere else? I am not going back to school , so please please do
not suggest that.
Thank you for your input.

Well, that depends on if you want to create flash websites or
html websites. Since flash itself requires little to no html
knowledge, I would think it's up to you. Personally, I would learn
html basics then flash basics.

  • How should i start with web dyn pro abap

    Hi,
    I have been working on webdynpro java now i would like to start working on webdynpro abap
    could any one tel me how should i start with it.. pdfs, blogs would surely help??
    i do have sufficient knowledge of abap too..
    some brief idea about what is "web dynpro for abap" would surely help me
    Thank u in advance...

    hi,
    please do a search before posting for basic questions, i searched the same and got around 700 hit.
    any ways check these links.
    As the name suggests Web Dynpro for ABAP uses exactly the same meta model as its cousin Web Dynpro for Java. A Web Dynpro component, a Web Dynpro view, a Web Dynpro model, a Web Dynpro controller have the same semantics both for ABAP and Java. The main difference is the designtime environment, the development infrastructure and the runtime environment.
    The designtime environment is properly embedded in the ABAP Workbench where Web Dynpro artifacts are simply a new category like BSP applications or classical dynpro based applications before. Also no surprises regarding the development infrastructure. The correction and transport system keeps track on all changes that are done, versions them and helps to propagate the Web Dynpro application from development to production like you would do with ordinary BSP or dynpro-based applications.
    Last not least the execution platform is the ABAP server that produces application content ready to be integrated in the NetWeaver Portal seamlessly. Features like portal eventing can be used between applications written in ABAP or applications developed with Java.

  • What apple certification should I start with?

    What apple certification should I start with?
    I am confused with which certifications I should work on first to be able to work as a technician and application support individual.

    I would start with the basic Mac Integration. It's a quick and easy test to see if you know the basics. If you can pass this, then move foward from there.
    Do you plan on taking clases or self study?

  • Should I start with Entity Object or Java Class Diagram ??

    Hi,
    I come to J2EE / OO application development from non-oo programming world. I am still confused about what step-by-step development approach should I take ?
    Should I :
    - start with creating Entity Object from available database table ?
    - should I start with Java class diagram, followed by generating database tables, then create EO from it ?
    Could anybody please help me, what best practice step by step development approach should I take ?
    Is there any white paper / docs about this ?
    Thank you for your help,
    Krist

    Krist,
    If you are not from the OO world then you may be interested in this new site on OTN (http://otn.oracle.com/formsdesignerj2ee) There is a workshop that starts by looking at an existing datamodel and builds up from there.
    If you are starting from nothing, you can indeed start higher at the Class Model level.
    I recently started discussing data modeling on my blog (http://www.groundside.com/blog/content/SueHarper/) and there are some very good comments(feedback from readers) that may possibly be useful to you.
    If you are new to the UML modeling world, I recommend you read two very good papers by Jan Kettenis on OTN (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/collateral10g.html) They are Getting Strted with UML Class modeling and Getting Started with UML Use Case Modeling.
    Shay pointed you to Toplink. There are a lot of resources on OTN for Toplink, including tutorials.
    Personally? I think if you have time, and if you can, start with a Class Model and perhaps a Use Case model, then you can start planning your application development from a solid base.
    Regards

  • Errors on my web site started with Flash Player Release a few days ago (Mar 28, 2012)

    Hi,
    I have a Flash based video player on my website.  This was designed and implemented based on an article vy Lisa Larson-Kelley.  It has run flawlessly for several years.  But, when I installed the lastest release of Flash Player a fedw days ago (Mar 28, 2012), I am now getting really annoying issues with the Flash Video Player.
    I expect that I will need to place insturctions for users on how to roll back their version of Flash Player, since this latest version is broken.
    But, many of the people who visit my site are not tech oriented (they are mostly friends and family, so, I don't expect that they will really roll back their version of Flash player.
    I am 100% certain the issue is the latest version of Flash, since these errors never occurred until I installed the latest version. 
    On my work laptop, I have an older version of Flas (10.x.x) and this probelm does not happen.  On my desktop PC at home, I have an older version of Flash 11 installed, and this problem does not happen (in IE9).  The version of Flash PLayer 11 where the issue does *not* occur is 11.1.102.63.
    On that same desktop PC, if I use Chrome, (which automatically defaults to the latest version of Flash which is 11.2.202.228, I get the problems.  So, there is no question that the issue is with the latest version of Flash and not my hardware or drivers.  I get the same problems on three different computers.
    My website has a username and password.  If someone from Adobe wants to replicate the problem send me an e-mail and I will send you the username and password.
    The videoplayer on my website is at this url:  http://www.jjjhi.com/TryMakingFlashVidPlayer/VideoPlaylist.html (but, you will need the username and password).
    The issue is that sometimes (not always) when you select a video to play, inistead of the video loading into the panel as it should (sized as 1025 x 578), instead, all you see is the control skin.  The video begins to play, but all you get is the audio.  It looks like this:
    You can recover from this error by using the skin control to make the image full screen, but, the video looks poor at fulls screen, because it is created at 1024 x 578.  You can then get the correct size by returning from full screen, but, I don't want the pepole who visit my cif\deo playet to have to go all through that.  Especially since most won't even know enough to try making the video full screen.
    This doesn't happen for every video on my web site, but, once it *does* happen once...it will happen for every video selection you make.
    This is unacceptable, and it absolutely a function of Flash version 11.2.202.228.
    Adobe:  Please fix this bug as soon as possible.
    I've implemented an HTML5 based video player and have begun populating it with mp4 versions of my video clips, but, quite honestly, the playback using HTML5 is much worse than with Flash.  I encoded the clips in the HTML5 player with the same Variable Bit Rates as in the F4V clips, and, in the HTML5 player, there are missed frames, and the audio can get out of sync.  So, I *want* to keep using my Flash Based video player, but...if Adobe doesn;t fix this, I will just dial down my VBR till I find one that is slow enough to play in HTML5 and ditch Flash.
    My HTML5 video player is here:
    http://www.jjjhi.com/TryMakingNewVideoPlayer/NewVidPlayer_option1_jth.html
    (again you need the username and password to use it, send me an e-mail and I will give them to you, I just don't want to post them in an open forum).
    Here is a bitmap of the page:  It is quite snazzy looking and is based on an excellent class from Chris Converse at Lynda.com.  But, even though it is 'snazzy looking' the HTML5 player performs poorly on an under-powered machine (like my work laptop).  It uses 100% CPU and misses frames and the audio loses sync.  The same videos encoded with the same VBR for Flash (F4V) play great, *except for the new issue described above!!!!)
    I Adobe can fix this issue with Flash Player 11.2.202.228  ASAP, else, I will  have to 'downgrade' to an HTML5 based video player, that, quite honestly does not perform as well as Flash.
    If you want to reproduce the problem contact me at my e-mail address: [email protected] and I'll send you the username and password.
    You can then prove that the problem does not exist with prior version of Flash player (before 11.2.202.228) but *does* exist with this latest buggy release.
    Thanks,
    John

    Thanks.
    I sent the username and PW to you and Chris.
    Cheers,
    John

  • Which Oracle Certification Should I Start With

    Hi,
    I'm looking for some advice on which Oracle certification I should start with. Let me first tell you about me and my business goals. I an new to the SQL world but have a firm grasp of the RDBMS. I have also worked as a Business Analyst for a company that is doing an Oracle upgrade including the EBS. I have had to do some very basic queries. My business goal is to improve my Oracle database skills.
    I would like to add Business (Data) Analyst to my job description some day. I would like to be both a Business Analyst and a Business Data Analyst. I have been asked to work as a jr. DBA in the past, and would like to continue to pursue those options. Currently, my work seems to evolve around Oracle as opposed to the other businesses out there.
    Given this information, which certification would you recommend I start with. Please let me know if you require additional information. This is my long term business goal so I will take as much time as needed to get it done. I was thinking I should start with *1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals I* (11g). Any thoughts?
    Thank you in advance!

  • How should I start with EJB programming?

    I have more than one year's programming experience in developing complicated data-driven web applications.
    Now I decide to use EJB to build new web applications, how should I start?
    Should I take a professional training class or just read several EJB books? I have Ed Roman's EJB book, it is great.
    Thanks for your reply in advance.
    James

    I think you start of by reading the EJB book by Ed Roman.It's free and availaible at www.theserverside.com.
    Read the first few chapters.
    Another good book is Richard-Monson Haefel's EJB published by Orielly.
    Start of by coding a few examples of stateless session beans on an easily deployable server like the J2EE server, available from this website.
    Your next aim should be to understand Entity beans and the issues surrounding container managed persistance and bean managed persistance.
    Voila in no time you wil be a champ.

  • Sequence should always start with 1

    Hello,
    i am using a sequence in a Mapping. But by starting the mapping the second or 3rd time the sequence did not begin with the value 1 but with the last value + 1 of the sequence in the 1st mapping.
    Is it possible to use a sequence so that it always begins with the value 1 everytime you start the mapping?
    Regards,
    vinzi

    I'm not sure I quite understood what you want, lemme get this straight:
    U have a sequence named SEQUENCE and you use it in 3 different mappings. When you finish run the first, you want it to restart counting?
    If so, then, I'm afraid you'll have to re-deploy the sequence. But you don't have to do it in Control Center.
    You may create a stored procedure that creates the sequence using 'EXECUTE IMMEDIATE' facility. Then, use it as a pre mapping process. It would be something like:
    -- This one you'd use in the pre-mapping process
    create or replace procedure Create_seq as
    begin
    execute immediate 'create sequence bla bla bla bla';
    end;
    -- This one you'd use in the post-mapping process
    create or replace procedure drop_seq as
    begin
    execute immediate 'drop sequence bla bla bla bla';
    end;
    Then, using this procedures in each mapping you want to use the same sequence. That should be enough.
    Good luck

    Hi
    This thing has been discussed many times. This is not advisable that you take loan for starting your career in SAP until and unless you have hundred percent job surety which is almost impossible. You have to sacrifice your prior non IT related experience. When you start career in SAP you start from scratch. Please check this blog where I have shared some tips and my personal experience as well. There are also many other blogs and threads in Career Center which can go through.
