Durante las conferencias he intentado apuntar en el portatil las palabras clave interesantes, como referencia para seguir investigando en internet. Estos apuntes están muy resumidos, son solo pequeñas notas de cosas que he pensado se podrian investigar, pero igual pueden interesar a alguien.Están en inglés ya que las conferencias eran todas en este idioma.

* from flash to drupal

A guy which translat.d a flash web site to a drupal versionof it.
Not very interesting for me.

*547   adobe flex

A guy from Adobe explaining how nice is Flex to develop RIA (Rich Internet Apps)
and that Flex can be connected to CMS as druapl very easily.
A commercial talk anyway.

ways to implement a RIA:
ajax
flex
MS solution (don’t know the name)

Webs using flex:

http://maps.yahoo.com
http://activalive.com
http://finetune.com
http://riapedia.com/tags/php

The flex sdk is free
Flex 3 sdk will be opensource

flex builder i based on eclipse

AMF - Action Message format
Is the way to connect Flex to data sources using RPC
There is an implementation for PHP

amfphp module

service installed in drupal

you call it ?q=service=
Version for cake called cakeamf

AIR. Is a tool to make applications off-line, for the desktop, free. You can embed flash, html and pdf in it.

You can workk offline or online, it automatically handels if you are online or offline

Works on mac, windows and linux

* drupal for news

Traditional newspapers are dead
Internet is much faster, to communicate news to the readers (for example blogs and such, and online newspapers)
Now with video streaming on the internet the new media will be also faster than tv

* simple xml

is an extension included in php 5
which is very easy to use (compared to traditional parsers SAX and DOM for PHP)
sample:

$result=simplexml_load_string($data);

simplexml

drupal_http_request is a function to take the date from a remote url

With simplexml you can use API services very easily

En fin, os dejo el pequeño informe de pruebas que he hecho sobre el tema y algunos links por si a alguien le puede interesar:

He usado swfobject para integrar el flash, he cambiado el parámetro wmode en los 3 modos posibles y he probado los resultados en firefox y iexplorer6 (en el 7 me imagino que debe ser similar):
(A) fo.addParam(”wmode”, “transparent”);

* firefox
-no funciona rueda (ni siquiera clicando dentro)
-si funcionan las teclas
-no se puede activar el full screen!
* iexplore 6
-rueda funciona muy mal!
-si funcionan las teclas
-no se puede activar el full screen!

(B) fo.addParam(”wmode”, “opaque”)

* firefox
-no funciona rueda (ni siquiera clicando dentro)
-si funcionan las teclas
-no se puede activar el full screen!
* iexplore 6
-rueda no funciona ni clicando dentro
-no funcionan las teclas, ni clicando!
-no se puede activar el full screen!

(C) sin parametro wmode
* firefox
-no funciona rueda, pero al clicar dentro SI
-no funcionan teclas, pero al clicar dentro SI
-EN fullscreen no funciona las teclas (pero si la rueda)
* iexplore 6
-FUNCIONA TODO CORRECTAMENTE sin fullscreen
-EN fullscreen no funciona las teclas (pero si la rueda)

por tanto la mejor opción claramente es la C

3. About keyboard input.
The full disabling of keyboard events for fullscreen mode restrains the development of new Flash RIA application with rich user interaction. Also it embarrass the fullscrean feature integration to existing application with keyboard input.
For panorama applications this means that ActiveX- and Java-based application still have a big fora in this question…
I understand everything about security restrictions, but I believe you can make some approval procedure to enable the keyboard input, say, the same as for camera and microphone: alert with “Allow keyboard access” and “Always allow for this site” checkbox.

In the current releases, keyboard support is not enabled in full screen mode. This is supposedly a security feature so that someone couldn’t be tricked (by say a spoof of your bank’s web site) into entering sensitive information. Personally, I think that is going WAY overboard in regards to security paranoia. It basically makes fullscreen mode worthless with the exception of watching videos.

o la nota oficial de Adobe donde se habla de esta limitación:

Me resulta a veces sorprendente como Flash tiene algunas cosas que se podrían incluso etiquetar como “chapuceras”, para hacer cosas elementales.

Este es el caso, de intentar controlar el volumen de un stream de vídeo en flv, para ello hay que crear una película “fantasma” que contenga el sonido y de esta manera poder controlar el volumen de manera independiente. Después de investigar bastante no he encontrado ninguna manera mejor de hacerlo, y la información en internet es realmente escasa! A pesar que la mayoria de sistemas de distribución de video en internet (por no decir todos) usan flash como player de vídeo.
Como controlar el volumen de un stream flv con actionscript 2

A veces me pregunto, cuanto dinero tendria que pagar youtube (google) a Adobe (ex Macromedia) por el provechoque han obtenido del uso de su player de flash que es la base de todo su sistema?

Hablando de otras cosas, en pimpampum acabamos de estrenar el Bookr, con el se pueden hacer libros ilustrados con fotos, y como siempre se puede consultar el archivo.

(this picture is from a simmilar one)

I’ts a solitaire wood game.
To solve it you have to step one by one each piece, eating them , until you have only one left.

I’ve never finished it. Most times i keep 3 pieces at the end of the game.

So I thougth, why don’t making a program to know if it’s possible to solve it and how?
And this is how I figured out to program in just a few minutes an actionscript that would try to solve the puzzle.

After a few hours, the best the program could do is 2 pieces at the end.. not bad..but not perfect..

You can change the program to make it faster and if you have the solution just tell me!
