    flash (exe) on web

    Well, it depends. You can post an exe on the web and people can download it, but it will only download the exe. You can't have an exe just start running, per se. Also, if it's an exe a person on mac platform couldn't view your web page. Browsers don't play exes because then you (or I or...

    Opinions required - is this a first?

    Check out www.detroitencoding.com I did all of it with xml database integration, and all of the text and buttons are dynamically generated. Even the background can be changed through the database. Upon adding a new tier to the appropriate xml file new buttons can be generated with unique...

    Opinions required - is this a first?

    Kill your back button! It wisely resembles a traditional website, but the back button make it start all over again. I guarantee you this will aggravate people. It's not a premier or anything, because I've been using database integration for a while now without Generator or anything (using...

    Please check this site for any technical problems.

    To all, It's not dynamic text being scrolled. It's a loaded .swf file. You cannot load images into a flash movie without generator. It looks like dynamic text (and might even be set to dynamic text) but it is not being loaded into the .swf (checked my cache), so it's not behaving as dynamic...

    How to make Flash5 Projection (EXE) run fast enough in all PCs?

    Basically you have to build the exe to run optimally in terms of ram and processor speed. Excessive tweening will bring any computer to a crawl when using flash. Flash is just not the ideal application authoring environment. It is handy that it can do so, but you don't have too much control...

    backgrounds for flash movies

    Here's the easiest way: For one thing, NEVER use transparent backgrounds because not everyone use i.e. or windows. Netscape and even sometimes Macs will put a background in for you. Load an *.swf into a movieclip which is where your background would be. Voila! Instant background image. If...

    flash testing tools?

    Oh, now I see. Basically, you want to try to break it. I'm sorry, but I have no idea of anywhere to do this because of the limitations Flash has of not being a "programming" language (as you said). Of course I'd want to say just use Director and publish to Java, but I understand why...

    xml in flash 5

    Yeah! Someone else into this one.... I suggest getting 2 books: "Flash 5 Magic with Action Script" has a couple of great chapters involving xml and database driven flash content. Also, "Flash 5 Developer's guide" has some great angles on database stuff as well. Try...

    flash testing tools?

    A little more info, please. How do you plan to control hardware through a browser page, anyhow? I could use a little more layman speak. You've already lost me on this one. Blended

    Using dynamic content in Menu Smart Clip

    Are both of these clips on the stage at publish time, or are they linked and called? A few ideas, though.... If they are on the stage at publish you can give them there separate names and then have them refer to each other through variables on the main time line. The harder method (and not...

    My FORM don't won't work until Flash has stopped

    Yeah, it seems to work fine for me with entering bunk and getting a "not allowed" reply (as I hit the "login" button or the ENTER button...equal response time). I suspect it's either platform or system issue...What kind of systems are they using? Is RAM an issue...Do they...

    just finished the other day........

    Everything seemed to work fine for me. Who do you work for? The Fourth Reich? What's this red screen stuff? I know they don't pay you enough to put up with that... Blended

    anybody know how flash might be abl

    My ideas on this. It seems Jesus wants to create a drawing page which could then be "saved" and emailed to someone. Therefore, grabbing the whole screen is not neccessary. I suppose it would be possible to make scripts which could remember the mouse movents and clicks and then...

    anybody know how flash might be abl

    No, not yet, but it's still on the burner. I'm working with smart clips at the moment, but I have come across some information on how to do the previous. Blended

    List Files in Directory

    What kind of file is it? XML? It could parse into i.e. 5.5. What do you want it to do? Blended

    anybody know how flash might be abl

    Well, is there a way to set up a script which can "press" alt+PrtScr for you? Does this work on a mac? If so, you might be able to pull it off. There could be some new project here.... Blended

    global to local x/y thing

    Ok..... This goes all the way back to the early xml days. The way xml works is you load the xml data into a series of arrays which are then parsed by movie clip which hold all of the data variables. These movie clips do not sit on the main time line because they are called by...
