I want to allow my users to embed their own Flash animations in their posts. Usually the actual file is hosted on some free image hosting site. I wouldn't actually load the flash unless the user clicked a button to play (so that nothing auto-plays on page load). I know people can make some really annoying crap in flash, but I can't fi...
Usually Flash and Flex applications are embedded on in HTML using either a combination of object and embed tags, or more commonly using JavaScript. However, if you link directly to a SWF file it will open in the browser window and without looking in the address bar you can't tell that it wasn't embedded in HTML with the size set to 100% ...

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out a decent solution (especially from the SEO side) for embedding fonts in web pages. So far I have see the W3C solution, which doesn't even work on Firefox, and this pretty cool solution. The second solution is for titles only. Is there a solution available for full text? I'm tired of the standard fonts for...

So, I'm writing a Cocoa application that needs to be able to display web content using Opera's rendering engine. This is for a feature, not because I'm an Opera fanboi (I'm not). All I've been able to find on the subject is this press release about Adobe's use of the Opera engine. Has anyone done this? What's the API like? Are they goin...
