[Flashcoders] handling non-western characters in Flash
I've got a client who wants to have multiple language support. I was wondering if there is a preferred way, for those who have done this before, for handling non-western characters in Flash?

Re: [Flashcoders] handling non-western characters in Flash
I like the XML idea, have one for every language. You mentioned using device fonts instead of embedding them, have you ever tried this with shared fonts? Maybe have on font per shared library and load on demand the font that you need?

Bitstream Cyberbit is a unicode TTF that has practically everything. As far as I can tell, Flash supports UTF8, which is an 8-bit unicode format... Files, variables, etc should all be in this format. Or, you can paste the non-western charaters straight in to Flash and they'll work fine... You can even save files this way; they'll be in the UTF-8 format. I have all manner of oriental characters working on my chat program without any extra work, except that the viewing machine needs to have the right font installed. - Kipp -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Donald Desloge Sent: Thursday, February 15, 2007 10:48 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] handling non-western characters in Flash I've got a client who wants to have multiple language support.

[Flashcoders]MovieClipLoader http error codes
I'm getting an httpStatus code of 0 back from a MovieClipLoader error. This only happens on a Mac with the Flash IDE. Every once and a while I get a 403 http error but not all of the time. I was wondering if anyone else has run into that error before or not? - Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Sunday, January 21, 2007 10:23:49 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] Q:The case for Functional vs OOP programming I am a strong believer of the power of OOP, but recently came across the following blog posts that argue for the advantges, and some would say supremacy of functional over imperative/procedural and OOP programming. http://blog.lostlake.org/index.php?/archives/18-Functional-languages- will-rule.html http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/08/01.html http://www.developerdotstar.com/community/node/544 I think the best approach would be to find a way to gain the advantages of functional based programming while keeping the easy-to- understand OOP metaphor. Is Actionscript ideally suited for functional programming? Can someone give/point me to some examples?

Re: [Flashcoders]MovieClipLoader http error codes
Thanks for the info, I look into it on the server end. - Original Message From: Derek Vadneau [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 9:52:03 AM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders]MovieClipLoader http error codes From the docs: If Flash Player cannot get a status code from the server, or if Flash Player cannot communicate with the server, the default value of 0 is passed to your ActionScript code. A value of 0 can be generated in any player (for example, if a malformed URL is requested), and a value of 0 is always generated by the Flash Player plug-in when run in the following browsers, which cannot pass HTTP status codes from the server to Flash Player: Netscape, Mozilla, Safari, Opera, and Internet Explorer for the Macintosh. A value of 0 can also be generated if the player did not try to make the URL request to perform the load operation. This can happen because the request violates security sandbox rules for the SWF file. The 403, in case you were asking about that, is the server restricting access to a resource. Typically, this is because you need to provide some type of authorization to get access.

Re: [Flashcoders] Embed text Problem
Kamal, Make sure your fonts are on the pixel and not on somehting like 45.2 in the IDE if the fonts are placed on stage. Especially with dynamic textfields and embedded fonts. Sometimes the size of the font will make the difference also. Hope that helps.

Another method if your text is only static, you may also create it in Photoshop and then export it to an image and load it up in your movie library...
