Is there a way to get notifications on a regular interval for Flash applications? Any and all suggestions about push vs pull vs poll vs etc. We would be checking every 30 seconds to 60 seconds. JP

[flexcoders] Re: Flex charts to powerpoint

I need to post this on my blog, but the way I did it was with an AIR app, though a Flex app could do it too. It wasnt ideal, but worked. Basically, I took my Flex chart and captured it as a bitmap, then transcoded that to base64. MS PowerPoint 2007 supports the .mht file format which is basical

Re: [flexcoders] AMFPHP Security?

Use a token system. Accessing the entry page, preferably by the submission and validation of a username and password, have the server randomly generate a token and store it in php (or whatever your server side language is written in) session variables. For any other data request of any kind, q

Re: [flexcoders] Why does Flex 4 hate modules?

In Flex 4, styles became per-module. That has the greatest chance of causing problems. To figure out exactly how to solve your problem would require debugging into it. If you are using a module project in FB, you may not be able to capture the link-report from the main app. You will have to

[flexcoders] Re: AMFPHP Security?

How about computing the hash based on the date and time when someone invokes the high score? Time can be +- 15 seconds to account for the amount of time to get to the server. The server computes the same hash when it receives the call and then compares. Someone could possibly grab the hash in Ch

Re: [flexcoders] Re: AMFPHP Security?

Exactly, what Gk said. You can make it difficult to forge the data on client, but you cannot 100% prevent it from being "cracked", so, better, keep the score on the server.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: AMFPHP Security?

If you want it to be fairly untouchable, have all your game logic on the server. The only thing the swf does is gather input, and display state. That way, nobody can spoof the game logic (which is pretty much your issue). Gk.

Thanks for your help guys. Oleg: I didnt really understand what you meant. The server cant know about your highscroe locally? IE: you score 13 points. You need to tell the server that you got 13 points. How could the server know otherwise that you got 13 points? Valdhor: I think this is someth

[flexcoders] Re: AMFPHP Security?

You could always use a secure connection via https. Also, you could send an encrypted username and password. For example, every thirty minutes generate a new password string. The server can use the same algorithm to generate a string and then you could compare them. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroup

Hi Amy, I just returned from vacation and picked up the issue again. It appears to me that Text and TextArea components do not work as item renderers in Flash Player 10. So, I found a different way to display the multi-line text in the grid column by using a label function instead. Thanks again

@id must be a simple identifier, it's the same as variable name in AS3. What you can do though is like this: add creationComplete handler to the repeating components and collect them into vector / array / dictionary / etc, whatever suites you better. Something like this: var event:Event = argu

Re: [flexcoders] AMFPHP Security?

You shouldn't send sensitive data to begin with, you need to calculate it on server and call saveHighScore() without parameters, so only server will know what the score was. No matter what your client technology is, the client cannot be trusted.
