I am trying to create a query string of variable assignments separated by the & symbol. (ex: "var1=x&var2=y&...") I plan to pass this string into an embedded flash file. I am having trouble getting an & symbol to show up in xslt. If I just type "&" with no tags around it there is a problem rendering the xslt document. If I type "&" w...
I am new to ActionScript 3 and have run into a problem: Using Flex Builder 3, I have a created a project with a few simple classes. If code in class A instantiates an object of class B (class B is in its own source file) then the code compiles fine, but I get the following run time error: ArgumentError: Error #2012: B class cannot be i...
We have a program that produces several SWF files, some CSS and XML files, all of which need to be deployed for the thing to work. Is there a program or technique out there for wrapping all these files together into a single SWF file? ...
I have an array of objects that when another object hits one of them, the object will be removed. I have removed it from the stage using removeChild() and removed from the array using splice(), but somehow the object is still calling some of its functions which is causing errors. How do I completely get rid of an object? There are no eve...

I'm doing a website for a family member's wedding. A feature they requested was a photo section where all the guests could go after the wedding and upload their snaps. I said this was a stellar idea and I went off to build it. Well there's just the one problem: logistics. Upload speeds are slow and photos from modern cameras are huge (2...
Hi. I'm looking to create a "Countries You've Visited" map - just like the ones you've probably seen on Facebook, TravelAdvisor and whatnot. I've tried different flash kits, but they're not quite as advanced as I'd like them to be. The main problem I've encountered with all the different kits is changing the background color on a count...
Google created protocol buffers as a replacement for the bulky XML method of data transition. Faster XML processing was just not good enough. Most of the web has grown up as a hodge podge of different technologies that have been integrated to work within the browser or to generate html. JavaScript is separate from HTML. Flash and Sil...
Hi, I have a flash player that has a set of songs loaded via an xml file. The files dont start getting stream until you pick one. If I quickly cycle through each of the 8 files, then flash starts trying to download each of the 8 files at the same time. I'm wondering if there is a way to clear the file that is being downloaded. So tha...

I have an application written in java, and I want to add a flash front end to it. The flash front end will run on the same computer as the java app in the stand alone flash player. I need two way communication between the two parts, and have no idea how to even start going about this. I suppose I could open a socket between the two prog...
Is there a C# class for interacting with SWFAddress deeplink URL strings (reading deeplink parameters, building SWFAddress URLs, etc.)? Planning to write one myself otherwise; but I wanted to make sure I wasn't reinventing the wheel first. ...

Argghh. I have a site that offers audio previews of songs hosted elsewhere. Some file names have an ampersand in them - see below where it passes "soundFile." Anytime there's an ampersand, Flash can't get the file - I think it drops the filename after the ampersand. It doesn't matter if I pass it as an "&" or an HTML entity ("& a m p ;")...
I am seeing strange behaviour with the flash.media.Sound class in Flex 3. var sound:Sound = new Sound(); try{ sound.load(new URLRequest("directory/file.mp3")) } catch(e:IOError){ ... } However this isn't helping. I'm getting a stream error, and it actually sees to be in the Sound constructor. Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:....
Is there a way to call an external script or program from Flash CS3 every time it builds a SWF file? I'd like to add subversion information using subwcrev - the SVN keywords don't work because they only update when the version class file is updated. ...
I am running blazeds on the server side. I would like to filter http requests using an http header. My goal is to send extra parameters to the server without changing the signatures of my blazeds services. On the client side, I am using Flex RemoteObject methods. With Flex WebService components, it is possible to set an http header us...
I am working on a java application that exposes webservices for a flash client. Any idea on how to prevent DOS/DDOS attacks ? I cannot use mechanism unfriendly for the end user such as captcha. So far I have found mod_evasive, an apache module which looks quite promising... Any suggestions, best practices, tools I might use ? Thanks in a...

I have a class with many embedded assets. Within the class, I would like to get the class definition of an asset by name. I have tried using getDefinitionByName(), and also ApplicationDomain.currentDomain.getDefinition() but neither work. Example: public class MyClass { [Embed(source="images/image1.png")] private static var Image1...
