I was looking for a solution for client side printing of reports and pre formatted forms from a PHP web based app. Note that these are not printing of HTML pages. Rather nicely aligned fixed formated Receipts, Order Forms, Ledger etc. Something that I have though of. Using PDF: Is there a simple one click way to print the report from c...
I'm working on a website where I want camera-recorded vidoes to be uploaded, and be viewable (but not downloadable) to logged-in users only. I'd also like to edit the videos, have certain images appear in the background, and possibly note the time at which they last stopped watching a video. (I.e if they stopped watching after 30 mins, i...
Update: somehow this works when running flash in browser, but doesn't work if you run from IDE. You might want to try running in browser if you have the same problem. I am making a chat application that repeatedly reads a text file from my server using Flash & Actionscript 3.0. I am opening the file with URLLoader, and it works fine at ...

We updated the server and as far as I know only rele...
I'm writing a conferencing portal using the open-source OpenMeetings, which is a Flash app that is compiled with OpenLaszlo. So, I have access to the SWF source code which is a mix of Laszlo markup and JavaScript, but not ActionScript. The problem I am having is that when users navigate away from the app in Internet Explorer, their micr...
I would like to do a flash menu similar to this company's, I have the rotation down, I just cannot figure out how to make it rotate to the top. For example, if you click "Financing" on their menu, the word financing rotates to the top. If someone could just give me the theory behind how to do that, that would be awesome. EDIT: I guess ...

Let's say that I have a Flash website where you could create an avatar and some motion. Is there a way to save those into an animated GIF with a server-side language ? (php is preferred) I've looked around and all I've got are ways to do that with the Flash software itself. Has anybody tried this ? Thanks in advance. ...
As the title says... I'm trying to interact with my flash movie's actionscript via javascript. Specifically I'm trying to send text to my flash movie.

I have a case where I need to serve "raw" swf files to the browser. That is, without embedding. We have had some problems making this work in IE now and then but managed to work around it. Until now. We're fixing some other issues with serving documents and as a side effect the flash files stop working in IE. Flash controls the browser d...
Hello, I have an swc which needs to operate slightly differently depending on whether it is being hosted by AIR or not. I've seen two suggestions on the internet: Test Application.application for WindowedApplication. Test Security.sandboxType for Security.APPLICATION. However, these don't seem to work in my .swc as the compiler can'...

I would like to add sound alerts to a web application. I believe that Flash is the best way to do this to support all major browsers, ie. IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari. Chrome does not seem to work with the non-flash sound solutions. I have been using jQuery and would like to use the jQuery Sound plug-in. An example is shown at jQuery S...

As a side project, for "fun," I'm rewriting my blog and CMS in Flex and AIR respectively, and while I'm pretty well satisfied with the design thus far, the one major pain point remains working with (which is to say performing CRUD operations on) legacy HTML content, and rendering that HTML content decently in both the browser and the Fla...
