Showing image instead of flash for mobiles?

I am just wondering if it is possible to show an image instead of flash content for mobiles?
I want to allow the adobe sniffer to do its thing when it is people using pc and mac browsers and direct them to the plug in page to download the flash player if they need it, but is there a way to sniff for a mobile / smart phone browser and if they cant view flash it will show an image instead?
Any help appreciated.

You can use Javascript to detect the browser and platform for any given user. You can then parse that information to push the content that you want to use for the result. You can find a good write-up with example code here: http://www.quirksmode.org/js/detect.html

  • IChat shows numbers instead of names for facebook contacts, how to fix?

    I just started using iChat for Facebook Chat, but it shows numbers instead of names for most of my contacts.
    Is there any workaround for this?
    Adium shows names just fine, but I want to use iChat instead.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    With AIM names there is an Option on the  AIM pages to change your Display name. (in your Account Settings)
    If you have an AIM Buddy list and stick in my Screen Name (ralphjohnsr) you will notice it displays as Ralph johns R with the Upper case letters and spaces.
    I am wondering if FaceBook have done something similar but not everyone has changed (or more likley Facebook are using the "wrong" list or haven't told anyone).
    The strange thing is only the two of you have mentioned it so far so there is probably some other explanation.
    On the Address Book Front I have added (level 4) to some Buddies that I happen to know via these Apple Forums (under the previous software there were only 5 Levels of posters) when we used to chat using iChat on a more regular basis.
    iChat does allow you to Create Nicknames in the Info Card but this Adds them to the Address Book.
    (it also has difficulty with lots of Nicknames that are the same such as Dave for David)
    It would interesting to know if Adium "Sees" the numbers instead of names. (Or ProteusX if anyone has it)

    I have been having issues with my iCloud email on my iMac. For some time period, everyday, it won't reload and often shows symbols instead of letters for the text. Any ideas how to solve?

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

  • [Killing flash for mobile browsers] Flash Developers of all countries unite!

    As a self-proclaimed member of Flash Platform Society, following saddening events of these days, I feel obliged to write several words to all those willing to hear. It is hard to bear the loss of someone dear, someone we can rely on, but we have to be brave and respond to all the threats by facing the terrible truth:  Our dear Platform, the one we have commited our lives, will never be the same echosystem without the support for the latest mobile browsers.
    But we have to be brave and say it loudly. We have to wear it as a badge of honour, since all other tools and facilites will benefit greatly from this decision as they will treated with greater care by our beloved companies.
    Yes, undoubtedly hard times are about to come for us. We may be mocked by other faiths, their mercenaries, prophets and martyrs (all combinations allowed). They will tell us that all is lost. That whole Platform will collapse along with the mobile browsers. They will ask when we intend to abandon what was already abandoned by all.
    But it has happened before when some influential people has revealed their mistaken beliefs publically. And we have survived! We may be spiritually-persecuted, we may be unpopular, but eventually we will triumph! 
    And for all those who stand with me: If I should fall wrap my body in Flash Platform banners!
    Sursum corda!
    Devoted Developer

    I don't think it's going to die.  Perhaps Adobe's just not updating the Flash Player anymore for mobile browsers.  I mean, what's there to update?  It's stable enough as it is.  Adobe's trying to improve AIR instead to enhance not just its features for developers benefit but to the market as well.
    More power to Flash!!!

  • Display an image instead of Flash?

    I'm a little green when when it comes to this stuff.
    I have a site that has a couple of Flash elements that show
    fine. Due to the network security on my work computer, it means
    they don't show when viewed from there.
    Is there a way to display an image if the Flash element
    cannot be displayed?
    Thanks in advance of any help.

    Have you tested it with IE online or only locally?  Locally IE will usually prohibit displaying Flash content.

  • Email shows up instead of number for texting !! HELPPPP

    Whenever i text another iPhone user my email shows up instead of my phone number. So, they have to save my email instead of my number. Is it because i backed my phone up to iCloud? HELPPPPP

    Not sure if this occurs with the iPhone mate, but I do know that if you have more than one entry for the same person in your contacts, it will only show the number and not the name when their call comes through. Just check to see if those contacts are in your Address Book on the phone more than once. In the UK, that can be as simple as having the same number expressed both ways eg: 0161 555 1234, and +44161 555 1234 - same number, same person, but having both of those numbers in your phone will produce what you are experiencing.
    Worth a look?
    Cheers

  • Adobe to ditch flash for mobile devices! A few questions

    Just read the news. Have a few questions
    1. Is AIR still going to be used for cross platform deployment as that is what I am using now ie: will it be used to deploy html5 apps/programmes?
    2. What tool/IDE will adobe be using for html5 - flash? flex?
    3. All of our multimedia swfs etc... - can they be exported/used in an html5 environment
    4. html5 coding - is it similar to actionscript 3 ie: do we have to start all over again - back to school?
    5. Games coded with actionscript 3. Can these games be exported to html5 or must they be rewritten?
    Flash stays for pc it looks like.
    So it is no longer multiplatform - we will have to code for flash on pc and html5 for mobile devices - is that right or will there be some kind of packager that will export our flash to html5
    Just a few questions

    I don't work for Adobe so my understanding may not be 100% accurate but here we go...
    1. Is AIR still going to be used for cross platform deployment as that is what I am using now ie: will it be used to deploy html5 apps/programmes?
    Adobe will be concentrating on developing AIR for packaging  apps for mobile devices. AIR is ActionScript based and it does not produce HTML5 apps.
    2. What tool/IDE will adobe be using for html5 - flash? flex?
    HTML5 itself is just a flavour of HTML and therefore Dreamweaver is the Adobe tool for it For Javascript based timeline animation etc, Adobe has Edge http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/edge/
    3. All of our multimedia swfs etc... - can they be exported/used in an html5 environment
    Adobe has Wallaby http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/wallaby/ for this - I'm not sure how active the development is lately though. In any case it's impossible to replicate all features of Flash in HTML5.
    4. html5 coding - is it similar to actionscript 3 ie: do we have to start all over again - back to school?
    Again HTML5 itself is just a simple set of HTML tags. JavaScript is very similar to ActionScript, as AS is based on JavaScript (ECMAScript). For example HTML5 Canvas drawing API is very similar to AS3 drawing API. Therefore if you know AS, at least you know the basics of JS syntax.
    5. Games coded with actionscript 3. Can these games be exported to html5 or must they be rewritten?
    If you want it to run on browsers, yes. If you want to convert into apps then AIR does that.

  • Web gallery or slideshow, non-Flash, for mobile devices needed

    Hi,
    My website -- www.johnblaustein.com -- is all Flash and I'm getting some mild complaints from viewers who would like to see my work on an iPad or iPhone.  I built my galleries with SlideShowPro and I know Todd at SSP is working on a mobile device solution.  In the meantime, however, I'm wondering if anyone here has some solutions they might share.  The iPhone screen is so small that I find thumbnails to be just about useless and navigation difficult.  I'm wondering if there is a Lr solution that will produce a web gallery or slideshow that will run full-screen on a mobile device with a simple next and previous button.  I'm even thinking I might just do a limited portfolio as a video file with no navigation at all.
    Any thoughts?
    Thank you.
    John

    John,
    Unless I go for mobile support, I am doing just fine as-is with SSP/LR.  I understand the benefits of Director, but at this point I don't have the energy to learn yet another application... unless I really need to.  I trust you that learning Director won't be as complicated as I am imagining, but at the moment "it ain't broke, so I don't want to fix it."
    I do all my site work myself with Lightroom, SSP and Dreamweaver, so I agree that I could probably get up and running with Director fairly easily.  The time will come no doubt.
    Thanks again for all of your comments.
    I was hoping that others might chime in here with other suggestions on making mobile device web galleries, but maybe there just aren't any good ones.
    John

  • Plugin Flash for mobile

    Quand va sortir un plugin Flash pour les navigateurs des
    mobiles ?
    C'est pas simple de vendre un site web Flash si on ne peut
    pas le regarder sur un mobile.
    When will leave a plugin flash for the navigators the
    mobiles?
    It is not simple to sell a Web site flash if one cannot look
    it on a mobile.

    No - the question is about flash player plugins for web
    browsers, not the flash lite crap.
    The answer apparently is that Adobe has stopped making a
    Flash Player for Windows Mobile as of Flash Player 7.
    Can anyone from Adobe confirm that Adobe has no interest in
    supporting a Flash Player for Windows Mobile?
    If there still is interest, is there any schedule for
    updating it - it's already two iterations of OS behind now (it's
    for WM2003 and MS is already replaced that with Windows Mobile 5
    and Windows Mobile 6! )
    I assume Adobe sees this as a threat to Flash Lite-based
    phones and wants to push Flash Lite as a quasi-OS perhaps even have
    a Flash Lite-based browser. I hoped the iPhone would encourage them
    to support advanced mobile devices again. Apparently they would
    rather support low-end phones and tie themselves to the carrier so
    they have a predictable revenue stream. This seems evident from
    even the layout of the forums - there's no Flash Player topic under
    the mobile device forums.
    From the end-user perspective it seems kind of pointless to
    drop it - why not just compile the thing for ARM processors? The
    phones that use Flash Lite don't have your choice of browsers, etc.
    so it's a completely different market. Please at least release
    Flash Player 8, if not Flash Player
    9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I guess mobile users will have to raise a stink like the
    Linux users - though how many years did it take for Flash Player on
    Linux to be brought up to the same version as the Windows and OSX
    versions?

    Hi ,
    It looks like your report column is set to display as Text. Go to "Home>Application Builder>Application #>Page #>Interactive Report Attributes" and change it to Standard report Column and you should be all set.

  • RoboHelp9 HTML Trial does not show images in Create PDF for Review

    When I do Create PDF for Review, the pdf shows only the gray rectangular placeholders for our logo and another image at the top of each pages instead of the actual pictures.  Is this a bug or it is supposed to work like that?
    Just in case this has anything to do with it:
    Some of RH's PDF Creator Add-in X features did not work on my new Win7, 64-bit, Office2010 machine, and said I couldn't then install my Adobe Standard 7.0 CD because "you have a better product installed".  The techs got on my machine for 2 1/2 hrs. and couldn't get it to write pdf via Printed Documentation and were going to try to re-create it in their lab.  A week later I uninstalled RH's PDF Creator Add-in X and installed my Standard 7.0 and I can now do Printed Documentation to pdf.  Would this have caused the problem in first sentence?

    I cannot be sure but I would say it is highly likely. PDF Review is designed to work with Acrobat 9 or X. I know Word 2010 has some issues with Acrobat 9 so if you are using 7, nothing would surprise me.

  • Revert to webpage images instead of tabs for iOS5?

    Is there a way to get rid of the web page tabs on iOS5 and go back to using the page images from iOS4 instead?

    I have never had a problem accessing a website on either device - provided that the content is iPad compatible - html5 and not Flash content. If you have problems with certain sites there could be other issues aside for it being Safari to blame.
    Anyway, read about iCab in the app description and see what you think about it. One of the other really cool features is that you can swipe from one open web page to another - you just swipe left to right - or back and you can see the entire open page - not just a thumbnail. That may not be as important to you as an iPad2 user, but for us low life iPad1 users, it is like getting a taste of multi touch gestures. :)

  • Show + image instead of handle in jtree

    I have created jtree. I have implemented my own TreeCellRendererComponent. I set the node images as per node type. My problem is, I need to get '+' sign to nodes not expanded and '-' for those expanded instead of default handles. How do I implement it?
    public Component getTreeCellRendererComponent(
                        JTree tree, Object value, boolean isSelected,
                        boolean isExpanded, boolean isLeaf, int row,
                        boolean hasFocus) {
              super.getTreeCellRendererComponent( tree, value, isSelected,
                                  isExpanded, isLeaf, row, hasFocus);
              Component compObject = this;
              if ( value instanceof EuamDefaultMutableTreeNode ) {
                   EuamDefaultMutableTreeNode node = (EuamDefaultMutableTreeNode)value;
                   setText( node.getText() );
                   setIcon(isExpanded ? node.getOpenIcon() : node.getClosedIcon() );
                   if( bIsRightImage_ && lblRightSideIcon_ != null ) {
                        lblRightSideIcon_.setIcon(node.getRightIcon());
              else {
                   setText(value.toString());
              return compObject;
    }

    Tree node handles vary depending on which L&F u r using, java defaults to "javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel" which uses the "0-" type handles. To get the '+', '-' handles you need to be using windows L&F. Try adding this code to your apps main method:
    try{
       UIManager.setLookAndFeel(
            "com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");
    }catch (Exception e) {}Hope this helps
