AS web navigation
Hi, I'm a web designer. In a effort to make Flash-based sites for my clients I have gone over stacks of AS books now for months. I just don't get any of it--and I've tried. Moreover, the books all give abstract examples to do just about anything with AE. My needs are very limited: I need to use AS for web navigation in order to create F...

Take a video on infoq.com (like this one: http://www.infoq.com/presentations/nutter-jruby-duby-juby). If you play the movie linked above, you'll see the slide deck advance as the appropriate part in the movie is hit.

how do I use the "in" operator? Flex/AS3
So the documentation has this nifty "in" operator which I like the idea of more that using a multiple step or statement (||). The documentation gives me this example. trace("PI" in Math); // true trace("myProperty" in Math); // false and public var myArray:Array = ["zero", "one", "two"]; trace(0 in myArray); // true trace(1 i...
Flex/AS3 DataGrid Columns have wrong values
This is driving me nuts. This script is adding datagrids to various containers in an accordion. In my first level for-each loop the item that fills my "if(component.@component_componentID == "999999999")" is the last item looped through everything works fine except the datagrid I am building there has the wrong columns. For some reason "...
What are some good patterns for managing a bunch of views/screens in Flex?
I'm building a Flex application with about a dozen different screens. There's relationships between the screens such as when on screen 1, I click on something that is an input to screen 2.

flex3 Format date without timezone
I'm receiving a date from a server in milliseconds since 1-1-1970. I then use the DateFormatter to print the date to the screen. However, Flex adds timedifference and thus it displays a different time than what I got from the server. I've fixed this by changing the date before printing to screen. But I think that's a bad solution because...

Everything works perfectly, except for one case: when Google responds with a 403 and a response body indicating ...
