That is incorrect. They used place that restriction on those accessing the .swf spec, but that restriction has been lifted. I'd have to check, but I think it's been several years now, but it's certainly been more than a year.

Very nice. I love the idea of "native" browser games. Sadly, even with the neat new things coming in HTML5 & CSS3, there will be big things missing. Highest on my list is decent sound support. Needing to provide both mp3 & ogg (sinc

Yes you can. The compiler is free and open ( http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Flex+SDK ). That, an editor, and Bob's your uncle. On Windows, there's also a nice open source IDE ( http://flashdevelop.org ). The one thing that

Looks like they paid some attention to what they did wrong in their previous updates. One hopes that represents real education, not just real PR.

That is the most inspirational thing I've heard all week, perhaps so far this month! Thanks for that!

Sounds potentially pretty cool. From a developer's standpoint, though, I'm hoping there's a way to swap in the appropriate debug player. What would be even cooler would be if the new plugin API makes it easy to write an extension to allow s

Not that anyone cares, but I don't want to live that way. I certainly understand how many love the urban life, I just prefer suburbia, thanks. That being said, a more relevant question is what the societal effects would be. My first quest

Outstanding! On a quick look back when it came out, I didn't see anything in CS4 to get me to upgrade from CS3. I'm thinking I need to reevaluate with CS5. If nothing else, perhaps the total diff from CS3 -> CS5 will now be worth the up

BS. There are never enough cycles. First, SpiderMonkey is the next-gen JS engine for FireFox. V8 is the Google JS engine. Second, Flash Player 10 is as good or better than any JS engine (with the possible exception of V8), and many Flash

While I'll definitely need to check this out further and keep a close eye on it (especially given V8, SquirrelFish and SpiderMonkey), I'm not sold on this being a "Flash Killer". Not yet, anyway. Take games, for example. The Tower Defense g

1) So use use the Flex SDK and your favorite editor. Or, if on Windows, flashdevelop. Or, if you like Eclipse and have some cash to spare, Flex Builder. 2) Your opinion. Assuming it was done well, a Flash/Flex based mail client could rock.
