Someone sent me a .fla file containing several art assets, with instances all configured to be displayed properly and in the right positions. However, since I'm using FlashDevelop with the Flex 4 SDK, I have no idea how to access these instances in code. Some of the objects are MovieClips that I need to modify the size of, and others are...

Background: I'm developing Greasemonkey scripts for a website. I do not control the Flash file.

Any sample code to do so ? I can only see example for passing simple variable. Let's say I have a movieClip M1 and a movieClip M2 loaded by M1. Then M2 will create an instance of a class c that will be passed to MovieClip M1 by calling a predefined method. I'm totally new to actionscript so I'd need to know the exact syntax and event t...
I really don't want something sophisticated, in fact I want the simplest animation for learning purpose: I just want to move a shape on a straight line. Is it possible to do so in pure actionscript (with flex sdk only) by creating a timeline programmatically or without creating timeline ? ...
I'm almost certain this is possible, but am not sure how to go about it. Basic idea: User visits a website using a HTTP/socks proxy. Hidden .swf file is embedded on the site which, when loaded by the client, sends data back to the web server, and that allows the IP to be logged along with a corresponding session ID of some sort which ti...

Given that both of these calls to getQualifiedClassName return the same thing (mx:Label), how would one go about programatically differentiating between an instance of a class and a reference to the class... var lab1:Label=new Label(); var lab2:Class=Label; var qcn1:String=getQualifiedClassName(lab1); var qcn2:String=get...
Hello, I'm an Avid Javascript developer, and am wondering if there's any to use Open web technologies (JS/HTML/CSS) to build a flash game. After a few Google searches, i've got nothing, so I'm asking here. ...
What is the best (and simplest!) way to record video from a webcam to the local filesystem--all from a browser? Ideally the video would be recorded in HD and then we could use ffmpeg later to convert it into the formats and sizes needed. Here are some things we've looked into: Use Flash to stream to a local Red5 server. But we've had ...

I'm creating a Flash-based (AS3) Facebook Connect site using the Actionscript 3 API and though I've got basic FB Connect functionality in place in terms of allowing users to login correctly, I'm running into walls when trying to ask for certain extended permissions. I'm not positive, but it appears as though there are two fairly signifi...
This is driving me nuts and because it's a combination of various technologies together I have a hard time tracking the problem. Scenario I wrote a tiny HTTP server that serves .flv files; these flv files are encoded on the spot. The flv files are encoded with adobe's screencodec (I started with libflv but that was too buggy so I ende...
