I’ve recently experienced problems on few AS3 websites. If you embed your SWF file with different WMode, like opaque or transparent in Firefox your Flash won’t load. Actually the Flash loads first frame and then it seems like it stops. Well, it certainly loads but the problem is that loaderInfo Event.COMPLETE and PROGRESS are not fired in Firefox.
That is LAME! Firefox has this “advanced” feature with Flash, it doesn’t load it until that browser tab has focus. Seems like we’re getting problem from there. Anyway, a workaround is to set the Event.ENTER_FRAME function that will check loader
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, _listenLoading);// on enter frame to check if it’s loaded private function _listenLoading(e:Event):void { if (this.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded == this.loaderInfo.bytesTotal) { removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, _listenLoading); _onSiteLoaded(); } }
Say No to boxed software! The future of applications is online delivery and access. Software is passé. Webware is the new way to get things done.

This voting strikes to a most important thing that is now happening on internet and that’s switching from desktop based to web based enviroment. I really like how powerfull all categories look, with at least two or three strong players and good services to offer, but mostly it’s all offered webwares that are great.
Vote and enjoy the change! Real change!
This is exactly how we imagined it works, as it was the only normal way… I am a bit worried about Flash apps without states, how the crawled goes through that stuff.
Anyway let’s see how much we’re going to wait for this to be implemented by Google and rest…
The Singapore Flex Usergroup is very proud to present Singapore’s very first RIA ( Rich Internet Applications) Event – RIAction! Taking place on the 26th February 2009, RIAction will see speakers from Google, Microsoft, Adobe, together with community leaders, coming together for a day of technological updates, roadmaps and application showcase!
Seems like this is going to be another nice event organized by FUG Singapore, with some interesting topics… Event is free, and requires registration. See you there !
Extension panel is driven by xml schema, which can be customized to fit specific project requirements. It automatically creates fla, html, css and javascript files defined in the schema. It also includes swfobject 2.1 and swfaddress 2.2 by default.
Using this extension can effectively streamline new project creation work flow. It only takes a few clicks to achieve which usually takes hours to recreate, duplicate or customize from previous projects.
guys from Another Flash User Group Singapore created this Extension panel for their needs but it can certainly be useful for other Flash people…
Thanks to the User Interface Resource Center, we can get an insight in what is happening with OpenScreen project directly from Adobe’s Anup Murarka, Director of Partner Development and Technology Strategy, Platform Business Unit who was interview by EffectiveUI senior developer Doug Schmidt.
