I just wanted to add an update for those who may face the same problem. We use prototype js framework and timers in many places; both have security violations with Adobe AIR, here is a list of security restrictions: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AIR/1.5/devappshtml/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7f0e.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7eff
and a list of supported frameworks can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/products/air/tools/ajax/community/ I'm working on it. I think there might be a way to run the site inside a sandbox so that it will not be able to reach desktop resources but will be able to use full js force. Anybody has an experience on how to do this ? yigit On Mon, Sep 7, 2009 at 2:41 AM, yiğit boyar <ybo...@gmail.com> wrote: > hi all, > we have a rich internet application coded with ajax which also uses flash > for some tasks via Flex Ajax Bridge (video & socket connection). > > now we want to develop a desktop version with as little work as possible. > > I've tried a simple AIR app that includes an html component where location > is set to our site. > > The website works fine inside the html component but the problem is that it > is not behaving stable. > I tried listening the uncaught JS exception event but it is not thrown (so > what I guess is JS works fine). > I suspect timing does not seem to work properly. > > I've also tried youtube and facebook, youtube also behaves unstable, > sometimes work, sometimes does not (maybe about load order).
