ActionScript 3 | Flash | PHP - Problems and Fixes

Flash and ActionScript have such amazing market penetration that you can build world class applications with it. Before it was mostely religated for use on the usual micro site or marketing page. But now, you are not out of line at all to require your users to have flash for access to the services that your application is providing. Pop-up ads and banners keep users constantly asked to update their player and many of the cool games on the web require it. This continues to drive downloads of the flash player. Hi my name is Nicholas Dunbar and I am an interactive designer. I use Flash because it is used for graphicaly engaging content rather than your sober web app which most people these days prefer to build in JavaScript. This blog is here to provide you with answers to problems I have already come across. My method for writting is simple. If I look for a solution to a problem and it is not easily found then once I solve the problem I post it. I hope you find a soultion to your problem here or just plain get to know some of the finer points of working with Flash. Cheers!
