In Class: split() and some very dynamic text



Class: November 4th, 2010
We will be exploring a couple more ideas before forging ahead into projects:
• using split() to put text into arrays quickly
• Exporting custom classes
• MOUSE_MOVE tied into rotation and rotationX
• getChildAt and addChild (finding children you added)
• numChildren to see how many kids an MC has

And surely we will reiterate and reinforce some ideas earlier discussed in class.

XML and RSS Feed Beautification

Prior to class on Thursday (11.4.10), please post your RSS feed examples here. Due to security issues, the RSS feed file may not work once you post them to your online account. That's OK, just post your SWF or FLA file URL and your peers can download, then run from LOCAL machines.

As usual, please post your assignments as a "comment".
Thanks!

Load External SWFs or Images

Here is a starting point for loading external content into your Flash movie. Why do this? The more you can load dynamically, the shorter the load time will be for your main flash movie. This is a way to break a LOT of content into smaller downloadable bites.
