Hi, I am using Flash Develop, and I have created an ActionScript 3.0 project. It starts and read an xml file, which contain urls to images. I have left the urls relative to the same folder as the swf. OK, so I publish and I have a compiled SWF and this is inside the bin folder. If I then copy this folder, e.g. to by publish folder, ...
I currently maintain an application that's written in Flash 8 (AS2) which is used to embed and control some auto-generated SWFs. The auto-generated SWFs are also Flash 8 (actually, they work at least in 7, possibly even older), so my current app is able to directly reference variables and functions within the embedded SWF. We're now wo...
Is there something like the java 'glasspane' in as3? The glass pane is useful when you want to be able to catch events or paint over an area that already contains one or more components. For example, you can deactivate mouse events for a multi-component region by having the glass pane intercept the events. Or you can display an image ov...

I have an swf file which behaves strangely on IE. The thing is that a certain rectangle doesn't get drawn when viewing the page after the first load. It only appears in IE and a quick fix is to make the path to the swf unique on every request so it doesn't get cached. The rest of my objects gets drawn every time. The code is very simple...
Is there a library for converting strings in as3 into the application/x-www-form-urlencoded format? Specifically, I am looking for the same functionality as the java URLEncoder http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/net/URLEncoder.html Unfortunately, as3's escape and encodeURIComponent functions don't do it. For example, lots of %...

I don't want to draw bitmapData's of every frame ...

Unless I'm missing something obvious here, there is no way of disbabling one or more rows in a DataGrid. I would expect a disabledRows or disabledRowIndidices property on the DataGrid or List component but that doesn't seem to exist.
