I'm using a checkBoxCellRenderer within a DataGrid so that I have checkboxes in a column.

It is possible to click on the cell area around the checkbox, resulting in the cell being pressed but the...

Is there any way to determine the width & height of a jpeg that is loaded through loadMovie()?

The container movieClip will always end up with a _width and _height of 0.

Is there some round...

NorthCode seems to have the solution! :o)

I have tough Mac and Win min system requirements for the player. So I'll contact NorthCode's support by email before I buy.

Along the fileIO thread...

Does the stand alone player allow you to write to a text file directly to the machine it is palyed on? (No server involved, no php, etc.)

I have a project requiring that a stand alone executable...

I have a large project using flash remoting to .NET that has been working great compiled as Flash 6. If I try to compile as Flash 7 netservices locks the player into an endless loop and then times...

I have a .swf that accepts a FlashVars variable. Using flashVars when calling a .swf from your html page gets the variable set before your code starts running.

How do I do the same thing if I...

Thanks for the help!

Unfortunately it is not my code and has near 80 class files that will take me a while to convert. A lot of the code is fairly good but there is some messing around with...

Am I asking for trouble using a Flash 7 ActionScript 1.0 .swf to load (using movieClipLoader) Flash 7 ActionScript 2.0 swf's into it?

I have a rather large application framework written entirely...

Maybe that machine had an earlier version of the Flash player? Just a wild guess, but perhaps worth checking.

I'm getting this same issue. It started after I reinstalled Flash MX 2004 pro for Windows. For the same code, my old swf compiled from my earlier install of Flash 2004 MX Pro containing the...

uh, well after looking into this, it sounds to me that neither Flash nor Flash Communications Server have you covered license wise for decoding or encoding mp3 if your organization makes over...

Did anyone get any clarification from Macromedia? Does the license they bought allow developers to decode MP3's on the client side wit Flash and encode/decode with Flash Communication server on the...

I came down to this for me (I'm not a lawyer and I'm only guessing and certainly not giving advice, your milage may vary, etc.). The eula states: You cannot use the MP3 compressed audio within the...

oh ya. Remember you need to URL encode/decode the email address you are sending as params.

The downside of sending the data through the URL is that it is not secure. On the other hand, unless...

I would think you could bypass flash remoting by making a call through http from the flash client to an ASP.NET page and pass params through the URL.

The asp.net page would in turn either directly...

Are the media controls designed to use with Flash Communications Server?

I'm using the Media Playback controller and I want to point it to an mp3 file through the Flash Communications Server which...

Thanks for the help Jay.

Yes, it may be that licensing is only needed encoding and decoding that the liceses are for. In my case I have a license that came with software I use for encoding mp3...

Sorry for the basic question.

I think I must be misuderstanding how to specify paths to content like mp3 files with Flash Communications server.

I have a directory in the FCS applications...

I found it, its not with the product dev info. MM put all the PDF manuals in one place here:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashcom/

What is with not providing an installer for minor updates these days at MM? I noticed the 1.5.1 update provides instructions on how to do it all by hand, back it up, etc. If you have a lot of dev,...

I'm trying to find the Flash Communication Server manual that is in PDF. After I bought and installed FCS it mentioned there was a PDF version of the manual I could get on MM's site but it didn't...

Yikes, well that was my fear that Flash wasn't throwing exceptions that could be caught except in a few places perhaps, but nothing you could count on catching in try/catch blocks.

ugh.




...

Thanks for the help, its appreciated.

I do understand I can throw my own error, but I assumed the try/catch block would catch the error already being thrown by Flash (at least its being thrown...

That's helpful thanks.

My main concern is how and when try/catch works and doesn't work intercepting exceptions.

I'm hoping I am just using it wrong here and there is not a larger issue of it...

I'm having trouble catching a Flash player exception from LoadVars.
The code below where I purposely feed LoadVars an incorrect URL to the text file it should read generates an exception: "Error...
