[flexcoders] Loading external css and setting a:hover style for htmlText
How do I connect an external stylesheet to a textfield so the htmlText
gets the right styles?
In Flex 1.5 that was easy:
var styles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
styles.load('myStyles.css');
...
function onLoad(ok){
if(ok){
myText.htmlText = hello a href=somelink.htmlworld/a
myText.styleSheet = styles
}
}
But how to do this in Flex 2.0, when function 'load()' doesn't exist
anymore and parseCSS not realy seems tow work with a:hover style etc?
In the 2.0 example I have an Application...
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
xmlns:myText=* layout=absolute
mx:Style source=main.css /
myText:TextFieldExample /
/mx:Application
...that loads an external stylesheet main.css,...
body {
fontFamily : ThesisBolPla;
leading : -3;
}
.heading {
fontWeight :bold;
color: #FF3300;
}
a {
color:#f0037f;
}
a:link{
color:#f0037f;
text-decoration:underline;
}
a:hover{
color:#f0037f;
}
a:active{
color:#cc;
}
...and creates the an instance of TextFieldExample:
package {
import mx.core.UIComponent;
import flash.text.TextField;
public class TextFieldExample extends UIComponent {
private var label:TextField;
private var labelText:String = bodyspan
class='heading'Hello world/spanbra href='javascript:void'and
welcome/a to the show. /body;
public function TextFieldExample() {
configureLabel();
setLabel(labelText);
}
public function setLabel(str:String):void {
label.htmlText = str;
}
private function configureLabel():void {
label = new TextField();
label.width = 200;
label.embedFonts = true;
label.background = true;
label.multiline = true;
label.styleSheet = HOW TO CONNECT TO THE CSS?;
addChild(label);
}
}
}
How do I connect the external stylesheet to the textfield so the
htmlText gets the right style?

[flexcoders] RPC Vs. FDS and FDS Express
Hi all, I'm extremely new to the Flex world, and have been pounding away through tutorials for the last week. While i've found exceptional tutorials on functionality, and getting started guides on Flex builder, and even details on the framework works, i've yet to see a good tutorial on how to install and what exactly you need installed. A while back i did a few admin sites with flash remoting i had learned from ASFusion's Real Estate App (AWESOME SITE BTW). I have another project coming up that deals with a lot of CRUD, and a database of about 30 tables or so. So after seeing flex i was in awe, and of course got excited of all the possiblities. BUT! As I am just a developer, an individual contracter with not so big clients, i find it impossible to afford 20k on FDS for on a server. I've searched all over the web to find a single hosting environment that has FDS as an additional option with Cold Fusion (as if good CF Hosting plans aren't already hard enough to come by), but i've yet ot find any. I've noticed that Adobe has a FDS Express? I've also noticed that it can be installed and used commercially on a Single CPU? Does that include Hosted Environments? After reading through a few messages on this site i noticed this comment in one of the posts: 'If your server-side data requirements are intense, you might want FDS, Flex Data Services. For normal data access, the RPC functionality is sufficient, and that is included with the framework (free)'. But after looking into LiveDocs i get: To use RemoteObject components, Flex Data Services or Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7.0.2 with the Remoting Update is required. But then it goes on to say that in order to use Remoting, FDS must be installed and you have to set up Destinations. So which is it, and how do you do it? If i just have basic CRUD Functionality, can i get away without FDS on my hosted environment, and use the SDK to interact with a backend Database via CF? If anyone knows of any good tutorial to get you installed correctly locally, and then shows you how to replicate the same functionality on a server, i'd love to see it. Thanks again for listening, and i apologize in advance if i make no sense, as i've been reading all night about this! :) Thanks agian, David Yahoo!

[flexcoders] Flex and Server-Side Technology Recommendations
Hi all, What do you all recommend for backend server-side technology to work with Flex? I'm planning on some work with MySQL and not particularly interested in .NET. I know there's FDS but it's too pricey to own for small budget projects. Has anyone researched web hosts who offer FDS 2 on their servers and know what their hosting charges are for such access? Any recommendations would be great. I'm not seeing much through Google. I'm thinking more along the lines of Ruby on Rails just because I've heard it's a very productive environment to work in. I confess I don't yet know too much about it though. Any comments on how this technology might work with Flex? How does Cairngorm fit into the data access picture? Just a set of best practices or a full-on framework like Rails? Any comments on these issues would be greatly appreciated! Thanks all!

Yahoo is relatively unhelpful with this. It's a known problem across all groups sometimes emails just don't go out. A more often occurrence is that the emails might have been filtered as Junk Mail. Check your junk mail folder, and also check to see if your ISP filters mail without your knowledge.

[flexcoders] problem embedding an icon in a popupmenu
I am trying to get a menu to display some icons, and I cant get them to show up. The code I have written is based on the sample code for creating a popup menu and the sample code for creating a list where they show you how to include an icon. But the two examples are different enough that I may not be merging them together right.
The other thing that is odd is, if you look at the code you will se a line that looks like this: myMenu.labelField=@label
I dont know why I need the @ here at all. But without it the label doesnt show up whereas with it it does. But for the following line myMenu.labelField=@icon
The icons dont show up.I know that I am embedding the icon properly because the code also embeds one of the same icons inside the button.Any help appreciated.Hank?xml version=

RE: [Junk E-Mail - MED] Re: [Junk E-Mail - MED] [flexcoders] Yahoo Groups Problems
Mail is filtered by (usually) a complicated set of algorithms... The typical spam filter rates spam (based on many things including sender, DNS information, content of the message, amount of HTML, etc), and then performs an action based on that rating. Some spam filters allow high-rated messages to be deleted before it even is saved on the server, for your mail client to download. Just make sure that flexcoders@yahoogroups.com is on your whitelist, and perhaps ask your ISP to do the same.

Flexcoders Frequently Asked Questions Last Updated: 30th May 2005 Contributors: Matt Chotin, Steven Webster, Alistair McLeod, Tariq Ahmed, Jeff Tapper, Peter Farland, Abdul Qabiz, Tracy Spratt, Jesse Warden, Dan Harfleet, Manish Jethani, Dimitrios Gianninas 1. What is Flexcoders? 2. How does Flexcoders relate to the Macromedia Flex Forum on www.macromedia.com? 3. Who posts to Flexcoders? 4. Resources to check before asking a question 5. Guidelines for effective question-asking 6. FAQ 1. What is Flexcoders? Flexcoders is a forum where developers can ask questions about Flex, FlexBuilder, and Flex-related technologies (like Cairngorm, FlexUnit and SynergyFLEX). The community is made up of everyday Flex developers as well as Macromedia employees. However, this is not an official Macromedia-sponsored forum, it is actually moderated by the folks at iteration::two, a consultancy responsible for authoring the book Developing Rich Internet Applications with Macromedia Flex. 2. How does Flexcoders relate to the Macromedia Flex Forum on www.macromedia.com? Both the Macromedia Flex Forum and Flexcoders provide help on issues related to Flex, and neither is an official support mechanism. Some people monitor both forums, some only one. It is up to you to decide where you might have a better experience getting a question answered and being able to subsequently help others. 3. Who posts to Flexcoders? Everyone who has a question or an answer. Many members of the Flex development team read and respond to Flexcoders as well as other Macromedia folks who monitor the community. Some recurring Macromedia folks are: David Mendels: EVP and GM, highest-level executive in charge of Flex. Lucian Beebe: Sr. Product Manager, Flex. Matt Chotin, Manish Jethani, Abdul Qabiz, Gordon Smith, Peter Farland and many more: Engineers on Flex. Active community members include: Steven Webster (Technical Director at iteration::two and co-author of Developing Rich Clients with Macromedia Flex), Alistair McLeod (Development Director at iteration::two and co-author of Developing Rich Clients with Macromedia Flex), Jesse Warden (JesterXL - Flash badass playing with Flex), Tracy Spratt (long-time member, holder of all knowledge related to 32K limits), Jeff Steiner (maintainer of www.flexauthority.com), Tariq Ahmed (maintainer of www.cflex.net), Jimmy Gianninas (long-time member, developer at Optimal Payments). And so many more! 4. Resources to check before asking a question The Flexcoders Mail Archive (better searching than YahooGroups): http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com http://www.cflex.net/showfaq.cfm http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/asdocs_en/index.html http://www.macromedia.com/go/flex15_java_livedocs http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm http://www.cflex.net http://www.flexauthority.com http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flex http://coenraets.com http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mxna/ http://www.google.com The Book Developing Rich Clients with Macromedia Flex (check your favorite bookstore) 5. Guidelines to effective question-asking Include a useful subject; this will help people find their own questions and answers later. Explain what you are trying to accomplish. Explain the error (include compilation errors or a description of the runtime behavior). Be prepared to break your problem down into a simpler scenario in case someone wants to try to debug the code themselves. Remember, private web services are inaccessible; you may need to create some dummy data to emulate problems. Phrases to avoid: URGENT (we all have deadlines, no one is intentionally delaying a response to you) Please send code (this is very frustrating to read as it implies you aren't interested in learning anything on your own. Where code is appropriate you can expect someone to provide it, but in many cases you will learn more by doing it on your own with appropriate guidance. It may be that you're on a deadline and just want to finish, but many of those who respond regularly would prefer to teach you to fish so that you can answer your own questions next time and even help out others). 6. Mini-FAQ Q: Can I mail Matt, Manish, Abdul, Pete, Gordon, iteration::two, or anyone else for that matter off-line with my question? A: Please don't! If someone is capable of answering your question on- list please believe that it will be done. Everyone on the list has full-time jobs doing their own work and often answer flexcoders on their own time; mailing them off- list doesnt endear you to them. If no one answers on-list in a reasonable amount of time (24 hours) you can try to rephrase the question and perhaps include more detail (including a version of the problem that someone can run without doing any setup on their own
Re: [flexcoders] Flex and Server-Side Technology Recommendations
There are several ways that Ruby and Flex can work together. However, so far, none of them offer the same degree of integration provided by FDS, if that is what you are seeking. If you are intent on Rails and with a simple query/response model, google "Rails Flex 2" and you'll find some of the posted examples. If you want to dig into it a bit, Chad Fowler's new book on Rails offers a description of how to make any Rails application talk XML. If that suits your needs, an example of a real-life XML API can be found on Basecamp - a product of 37 Signals and one of the foremost examples of Rails used for commercial purposes. Here's a link to it: http://basecamphq.com/api/ I've not tried to integrate with it myself - but sending and receiving XML from Flex is fairly easy and well documented and should be relatively easy to use. -Mark Kevin Mulvihill wrote: Hi all, What do you all recommend for backend server-side technology to work with Flex?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: problem embedding an icon in a popupmenu
lol.Just five minutes ago I switched to an array and got it working.It looks like you cant create a field of type class in an xml object, or at least I wasnt able to. It seems to want to interpret it as text. When putting braces around it it doesnt work either.
But you are right. It was the wrong strategy anyway because the icon is left justified, so it looks wierd. I am just (today) playing with itemRenderers so I will give that a shot. In fact this popup is being used inside an itemrenderer that is inside a datagrid! So it looks like I will just have to do the next level :)

Re: [flexcoders] Re: problem embedding an icon in a popupmenu
Yes... but how do you assign an itemRenderer to a menu.You cant use mxml which takes care of the typing niceties.the problem is that you cant do this: myMenu= Menu.createMenu(parent, menuData, false);
myMenu.itemRenderer=ThumbPopUpRenderer;Where ThumbPopUpRenderer is an MXML component. It gives you a type error because itemRenderer is of type IFactory and ThumbPopupRenderer is not.
But if you do this: myMenu= Menu.createMenu(parent, menuData, false); myMenu.itemRenderer=ThumbPopUpRenderer as IFactory;It runs, but apparently an MXML itemRenderer is not of the right type, so it throws a runtime error.

Re: [flexcoders] RPC Vs. FDS and FDS Express
What I ended up doing is just anteing up and getting a dedicated server. Enterhost has a plan that includes a license of Coldfusion for like $200 a month. For me, it's been well worth it, being able to setup my own staging area, public area, being able to update software as I need, not as the host dictates. I was able to install FDS express with no issues, as well as Flash Media Server 2, and update coldfusion to 7.0.2 for flex integration. It just makes my life so much easier, I can never go back to a shared hosting solution.On 7/16/06, David [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I'm extremely new to the Flex world, and have been pounding away through tutorials for the last week. While i've found exceptional tutorials on functionality, and getting started guides on Flex builder, and even details on the framework works, i've yet to see a good tutorial on how to install and what exactly you need installed. A while back i did a few admin sites with flash remoting i had learned from ASFusion's Real Estate App (AWESOME SITE BTW). I have another project coming up that deals with a lot of CRUD, and a database of about 30 tables or so. So after seeing flex i was in awe, and of course got excited of all the possiblities. BUT! As I am just a developer, an individual contracter with not so big clients, i find it impossible to afford 20k on FDS for on a server. I've searched all over the web to find a single hosting environment that has FDS as an additional option with Cold Fusion (as if good CF Hosting plans aren't already hard enough to come by), but i've yet ot find any. I've noticed that Adobe has a FDS Express? I've also noticed that it can be installed and used commercially on a Single CPU? Does that include Hosted Environments? After reading through a few messages on this site i noticed this comment in one of the posts: 'If your server-side data requirements are intense, you might want FDS, Flex Data Services. For normal data access, the RPC functionality is sufficient, and that is included with the framework (free)'. But after looking into LiveDocs i get: To use RemoteObject components, Flex Data Services or Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7.0.2 with the Remoting Update is required. But then it goes on to say that in order to use Remoting, FDS must be installed and you have to set up Destinations. So which is it, and how do you do it? If i just have basic CRUD Functionality, can i get away without FDS on my hosted environment, and use the SDK to interact with a backend Database via CF? If anyone knows of any good tutorial to get you installed correctly locally, and then shows you how to replicate the same functionality on a server, i'd love to see it. Thanks again for listening, and i apologize in advance if i make no sense, as i've been reading all night about this! :) Thanks agian, David __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!

Re: [flexcoders] Flex and Server-Side Technology Recommendations
If it is not all about Ruby, but getting the same productivity with FDS and remoting - (here comes shameless self-promoting plug) - check out Flex Exchange for DaoFlex - also open source and developed primarily around Flex remoting and FDS and SQL http://www.adobe.com/go/flex_exchange Regards, Anatole On 7/17/06, Jeremy Lu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If this is all about ruby, there are various open source Ruby projects going now, most active one is : http://blog.themidnightcoders.com/2006/06/weborb-and-flex-remoting-for-ruby-on.html and this one had been dead for more then two year but there are workable code in the CVS: http://rubyforge.org/projects/amf4r/Jeremy.

[flexcoders] Re: problem embedding an icon in a popupmenu
Hank,
I have an AS solution for you, but it's too much code to post. If
you want the code, send me an email ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I'll send
you the code.

Yes... but how do you assign an itemRenderer to a menu.
You cant use mxml which takes care of the typing niceties.
the problem is that you cant do this:
myMenu= Menu.createMenu(parent, menuData,
false);
myMenu.itemRenderer=ThumbPopUpRenderer;
Where ThumbPopUpRenderer is an MXML component. It gives you a
type
error
because itemRenderer is of type IFactory and ThumbPopupRenderer
is
not.
But if you do this:
myMenu= Menu.createMenu(parent, menuData,
false);
myMenu.itemRenderer=ThumbPopUpRenderer as
IFactory;
It runs, but apparently an MXML itemRenderer is not of the right
type, so it
throws a runtime error.
Any ideas?

lol.
Just five minutes ago I switched to an array and got it
working.
It looks like you cant create a field of type class in an xml
object, or
at least I wasnt able to. It seems to want to interpret it as
text. When
putting braces around it it doesnt work either.
But you are right. It was the wrong strategy anyway because
the
icon is
left justified, so it looks wierd. I am just (today) playing
with
itemRenderers so I will give that a shot. In fact this popup
is
being used
inside an itemrenderer that is inside a datagrid! So it looks
like I will
just have to do the next level :)
Thanks for taking a look. It was driving me crazy.

Hi Hank,
I couldn't get this to work with xml. So, I changed the
dataProvider to
an array and used an iconFunction. It works, but if you
select an icon,
when the menu is displayed a second time the icon is also
used
as the
selected icon. For what you are trying to do, I would
recommend that you
use an itemRenderer for your menu items. That way you can
still use xml and
control the positioning of the icon image. I know that you
have asked this
question a couple of time, so I thought I would give it a
try. I can see
why you are having problems with this.
