Re: [Flashcoders] Flash Cache in IE & FF

2009-09-27 Thread Charles Parcell 
You can append a query string to any URL and this forces a reload of the
data from the CLIENT.

For example, as someone has already pointed out.

Main.swf?nocache="+(new Date()).getTime()

You can also do this to your data file.

myData.xml?nocache="+(new Date()).getTime()


As you might have noticed, I was specific about this working to force
reloading on the client. It has been my experience that this is not a 100%
solution. There are some instances where the server will cache the data and
query strings do not force the reloading of data. The server cache would
eventually update after a few hours though.

To be honest I do not know the solution to this part of the puzzle. I put
that issue on the laps of the server administrator. I know that it took his
several "patches" to fix the issue for users off domain. I do recall that
people on the same domain were still getting caching issues. This was
finally chalked up to a FOL (fact of life).

To provide full disclosure, this was a fairly complex network and domain
config. as it was for a major financial institution. So, the problem might
have been self induced and thus unique to the company.

Re: [Flashcoders] Best way to detect key KEY_DOWN on MovieClip

2009-09-27 Thread Glen Pike 

Hi,

You should be able to do this with something like below. You can add 
your code on the timeline, or inside a class, it's up to you. You will 
need to make sure that the thing the code is inside has been added to 
the stage - you listen for keyboard events on the stage, not the 
movieclip, so you may have to implement some code to check what is in 
"focus", or otherwise...


HTH

Glen

//Import your keyboard libraries.
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.ui.Keyboard;

//when your movieclip or it's parent are added to stage, then use this 
to add a keyboard listener to the overall stage (not the individual 
movieclip!)

stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, onKeyUp);

//Handle the "down" event (you can ignore this if you just want the 
press&release of a key)

function onKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.DELETE)
{
trace("Delete key is down");
}

}
//handle the key up event...
function onKeyUp(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.DELETE)
{
trace("Delete key is up");
}
}

Hello,

I would like to add listener to movieclip, listenining for DELETE. What is the 
best way to do that? In Actionscript 3 it gets complicated.

Thank you in advance,

Re: [Flashcoders] JPGEncoder and com folder

2009-09-27 Thread Glen Pike 

Hi,

   This is really a bit of a newbie question, so if you have any more 
really basic ones like this, I would suggest trying the other list - 
http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/options/flashnewbie/ - but to give 
you a bit of a pointer...
  
   You can unzip the as3corelib files anywhere you like.  If you unzip 
in the same location as your project / FLA file, then you should see a 
folder called com in there - Flash will compile your movie okay because 
the "classpath" automatically includes the folder the FLA is in.


   If you put them somewhere else, you need to tell Flash where to look 
when compiling - add to your "classpath".  Search for this in the Flash 
help because there are 2 places you can set it (for each fla file and 
"globally")
