Warning: strtotime() [function.strtotime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier.

How to check data type in AS3 (the IS operator)
Written by Muhammad bin Yusrat   

 

Many a times I’ve found myself in a situation where I need to check if a variable has a particular data type, and accordingly perform some action. I could not find anything by searching for this for quite some time until one day I stumbled across this beautiful ‘operator’ that does it (in someone else's code). Here is a brief article about checking to see if a variable belongs to a specific data type or class.

 
Flash Mobile

Finally Mark Doherty from the mobile team sprinted through some live demos of Flash on the HTC Android and Windows Mobile. The demos were done through hookups with the phone and simulators and we have to say they were quite underwhelming. Simple games running at 2-3 fps won't impress anyone and we think many just thought "another nail in the coffin for Flash on mobile". However, after his session we caught up with Mark and this was just an unlucky case of display hardware.

 

 

Flash Mobile
We tested his phones and everything was playin[code]g really smoothly there, so we probably shouldn't worry. Adobe have learned their lesson but they should probably ensure the [/code]demos look as good on the big screen as they do on the phones themselves.

Description: Makes an easy to export PNG/JPG Images from with in Flash. You can take a snapshot of any MovieClip (or the entire stage) and tell the class to export it to PHP which then saves it on the server. The usage of the script will require only two lines for the basic export of image.

 
Flash Develop 3.0 Released

After what seems like the longest release cycle in OS Flash history, the popular Windows based Actionscript editor FlashDevelop 3.0 was released yesterday. It took 9 Beta versions, 6 Release Candidates and a little more than a year to get it all ready, but now you can download the final version.

Two years ago, we did a review of FlashDevelop 2.0 and we absolutely loved it for it's speed and easy of use. It is still the fastest coding tool for Flash users (no "Building workspace"!), but is now also does AS3/AIR/Flash 10/MXML development.
