"Certainly from a developer perspective, Flashcomm seems to be dying."
@Hank - You really should back up an incendiary statement like that with more proof than a flakey listserv. I have been emailing with Dave Watts from Figleaf and apparently the mailman database became corrupted and the entire list went down. I have offered help from Adobe but I'm waiting to hear back. In the interim, Stefan Richter has set up an alternate listserv here: http://www.flashcomguru.com/flashmedialist/subscribe.cfm (Info here: http://www.flashcomguru.com/index.cfm/2006/9/27/flashmedialist) He has a few hundred people signed up already, and most of the Adobe folks who were on chattyfig are signed up as well. hope this helps - I'm eagerly awaiting the return of the chattyfig list as well. -steve.

I don't see anything that make that app flex only. All what i've seen could be as easily as flex done in swf 5, 6, 7 or 8. Only the components make it flex only imo. my cents. ----------- Eric Priou (aka erixtekila) In progress tech blog : http://blog.v-i-a.net/ Oregano XML Socket forum : http://forum.v-i-a.net/ ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Sat, 30 Sep 2006 14:46:51 -0400 From: "Frederic v.

To: Flashcoders mailing list <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed I know that while you can use the <img> tag in html text fields to load images or symbols, that the image must be left- or right-aligned with the text, and the text wraps around it. I have a need to have small images *inline* with the text, however. I'm wondering if anyone's worked out a hack to make this work (or at least appear to work). The first thing that comes to mind is to place some other character where the image will go, search for it, figure out its position, and then attach the image on top of it in the appropriate place. However I'm not sure if it's possible to find the exact position of a character in a TextField. I recall seeing someone demo just that thing on a blog post somewhere, but I haven't bookmarked it, and I think it was probably AS3 anyway (this needs to run in FP8). Flash Paper Viewer is able to highlight search results in this way, but I believe there's some very Flash Paper specific things going on there (having worked on the first version of it myself). Any clues would be much appreciated. thanks, -josh ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Sat, 30 Sep 2006 15:44:56 -0400 From: "Jorge Antonio Diaz Gutierrez" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] inline images in html text fields?

What Happens to me is that, when I place few pictures continuously it overlaps one and another by placing <img> tags one behind the other. It would be cool to see any example about it.
