Flare timeline series final result
Monday, September 28th, 2009Demo here. I’ve noted that the framerate is much better when the shockwave is included in a proper document, as opposed to the standalone swf I just linked to.

I’ve just managed to get Xray to work, a great debugger. Xray needs two things to work, the connector which is a .swc you include in your AS3 code and the shockwave which will be connecting to, and communicating with, the connector.... Read More

In an earlier article I spoke about changing the stage size based on the URL of the page that loads the ShockWave.
Well as it turns out the simple approach I outline there won’t work in IE7 for some reason (no don’t ask me why, I didn’t find any explanation no matter how much googling I did).... Read More
AMFPHP in Flash CS3 with AS3 - jQuery.post style

The other day I was asked to demonstrate how to setup AMFPHP in Flash. As I’ve already done it many times in Flash 8 with little or no problems I felt relaxed about it. The machine I was to demonstrate on only had Flash CS3, no problem I thought and fired up an Actionscript 2 project. The extra components you are required to install in Flash 8 are probably already integrated by now I thought and copy pasted code from an older project, hit ctrl-enter and got a debug window complaining about a lot of missing classes. Apparently you have to copy that stuff from somewhere in the Flash 8 program dir tree and put in the corresponding place in the Flash CS3 dir tree. We didn’t have any Flash 8 installed though…
So I started a new AS3 project instead and started googling my ass off for a quick solution (the designers I were demoing to started getting restless), which I found in the form of Oscar Trelles‘ nice AS3 Flash remoting example. I followed the tutorial but no it didn’t work. The staging server had .htaccess with password protection that ruined things this time. I had to give up, I told them I would get back to them and here I am!... Read More
