How do I get my counter to work? Please include explanation, and feel free to comment.

The working version of this code is fantastic. My co...

The laptop is a 4 year old Dell model - CPU is Intel T1350 @ 1.86GH. The strange thing is that the application keeps my CPU at 50% even though it doesn't do anything. It is a static, rather complex Fle...

I'm thinking of writing a new web-based game, and wondered if anyone had any suggestions on which platform I should opt for. The game will be 2D sprite based, but will need to maintain a decent fps rate (there'll probably be up to 20 things moving at once). It'll all be controlled via the mouse. I use .NET daily, so Silverlight seems ...

Go here: http://nano.materials.drexel.edu/research/videolibrary For some bizarre reason, the videos will play at 3x speed on the first run through, but then will play at normal speed each subsequent play. This doesn't happen all the time, and it's not always the same video(s) that do it. I'm utterly baffled. I've reconverted the video...

I've written a url validator for a project I am working on. For my requirements it works great, except when the last part for the url goes longer than 22 characters it breaks. My expression: /((https?):\/\/)([^\s.]+.)+([^\s.]+)(:\d+\/\S+)/i It expects input that looks like "http(s)://hostname:port/location". When I give it the input:...
I'm using Flash Builder 3 to edit my Flex app, but I noticed that every time I make a change on the .html files (index.template.html for example), even if it's not in the IDE but with another program, Flash Builder rebuilds the whole project. Is there anyway to stop this? Why would it need to rebuild the workspace everytime a html file ...
I recently migrated a large AS3 site (lots of swfs, lots of flvs) to Amazon S3. Pretty much everything but HTML and JS files is being stored/served from Amazon, and it's working well. The only problem I'm having is that I built the site using SWFaddress (actually, via the Gaia framework which uses SWFaddress), and for some reason, SWFa...
