I rush of high tutorial Napolux, Flex 3, Adobe AIR and the Feedburner API, which shows how to write a simple application (or widget) using Adobe AIR Flex 3, to show how the exact same thing using Adobe Flash CS3. If you wish, also, you can use the extension for creating Adobe AIR applications. It is not necessary for the purposes of this tutorial, build the application executable as AIR, you can use the code proposed as a simple Flash movie from "affixed" to your Web pages.

Flex vs Flash

Although Adobe AIR appreciate how technology and how it was implemented in platforms HTML (Dreamweaver), Flash and Flex, are not "yet" quite well disposed towards Flex! I do not make a comparison with Flash Flex, despite many common features but also many differences. But I did not quite appreciate the political Adobe on this spinoff sometimes nonsensical. I would have preferred, instead, creating a unique environment (Flax) development and not this "useless" separation. Moreover, as a good programmer, those too "visual" I do not much like Flex and it seems destined to become dangerously similar to Visual Basic, which among other very well and know that I worked for many years. In short, Flex I really do not understand and I did not understand what Adobe wants to do with this branch. If Flex is listed as the ideal environment to write RIA what the fate of Flash? All the features of Flex, actually not available "directly" in Flash, could - if you want - be included without forcing to buy multiple licenses to develop - in the end - the exact same thing.

Google AJAX API Libraries expanding its fleet of libraries and framework to SWFObject, useful to insert and manipulate Flash movies on our Web pages. SWFObject is also available as a plugin for Wordpress, when I write, however, has not been Plugin yet updated to load the code and the "repository" Google. A short, then, I imagine will be issued a new version of Plugin ... unless you want to edit themselves meantime ...

Include SWFObject Google AJAX API Libraries

As for other libraries in Google AJAX API Libraries can use the URL or the absolute meotdo google.load()

Chrome Google allows you to create Desktop applications from a Web page? In fact, as shown in the menu item, is simply allowed to create a shortcut to a shortcut that - in turn - opens a window without the address bar without all the frills of the browser. With this does not mean that we have created a Desktop, and we have just created a link to the same Google Chrome mode - so to speak-chrome-less.

Feature Simla, but more ambitious, had already been proposed by the Mozilla Foundation in 2007 through the Prism. This is certainly the most versatile and articulate, accompanied by a useful extension that allows you to create desktop applications menu of FireFox, like Google Chrome.

However, both solutions are far away from technology Adobe AIR. Before someone is confusing the good stress the substantial differences between a shortcut on the desktop, which opens a window without menus, and a desktop application true and proper.
Adobe AIR, in fact, unlike the solutions proposed by Google Chrome and Prism allows:

• Virtually complete access to the system running the application with the ability to read and write files. Opportunity to extend its functionality through a DLL (dynamic link library), extensions and third-party products as SHU Player (see Distribute Adobe AIR: AIR Badge by a SHU Player)
• It manages the application like any other system applications: installation and uninstallation

In this tutorial we'll see how to create a personal login procedure, using Ajax functionality via jQuery. There are several ways to customize the login Wordpress, for example through the use of hooks and filters add_action() add_filter() We use a more low-level, although we still interfaces to the kernel Wordpress. Also make sure to validate a user through the double email / password.

Why create a login?

• In some contexts can return uitle have the most control over the login page, to propose a custom layout to our registered users. You can also enrich the page with information, a logo from the classic "Password Forgotten?"
• To allow access via email (as shown here Treaty) instead of user_login standard Wordpress
• To be able to enter a login panel in the sidebar of our Blog
• And finally, to have a skeleton - and an idea - for a good Plugin

Environment

In our example / tutorial work on the root of Wordpress inside a folder mylogin I created two php files within this folder: index.php and logon.php The first contains the interface of our login, with all functions Javascript / jQuery which we serve. The second file, logon.php will contain the code to validate the user. Then we create a folder css and inside this file layout.css and a folder images Inside the folder images include a classic Ajax loader: create it online at AjaxLoad.info. At the end you should have:

• mylogin
• index.php
• logon.php
• css
• layout.css
• images
• ajax-loader.gif

Recently Cristiano Fino issued a profit Plugin for Wordpress can add two links to every comment by a post (perhaps you have installed a similar, given that the directory Wordpress.org I have a couple astray, but as an Italian software would be the event to honor the excellent work done by Cristiano). These Link (reply & shares), meet and / or quote the author of a commentary by running the boring operation to insert the character at (@) to indicate to whom it is addressed. In this tutorial I will explain - in the medium-expert users - how to add these two features "on hand", without any all'istallazione Plugin. Also exploit the capabilities of jQuery to the party in Javascript. The technique is exhibiting the same I used to introduce this feature in this blog.

Note: The use of a plug is the best solution for those who often tend to change their Wordpress template or at least, has in anticipation of doing so. This tutorial will only show how to perform targeted in the code Wordpress and is dedicated to the most curious.

Changing the file comments.php

The first change to make is to enter the link "reply" and "units" within each comment. To do this, edit the file comments.php located in the folder of our theme. This file contains all the instructions that allow you to view the comments at the end of a post. The section that interests us (which may vary slightly from issue to issue) is the loop creation of the various comments, recognizable by:

Google, in the latter perdiodo, has released a multitude of tools dedicated to developers, continuously updating their releases. Now running out an agreement with popular AJAX framework, and not only to centralize the distribution of libraries jQuery, prototype, script.aculo.us, MooTools and dojo!

In practice, you can access these libraries using the infrastructure and the Google network, with significant benefits in terms of speed and security.

The speed, loading, is guaranteed by the same network that Google and provide per se a distributed server, allowing (by default) loading compressed (gzip / minify) library. The hosting Google closer to the request will be used to send the code and, if not reaching down or temporarily, the Google network will still send the Javascript code!

Even this time responding to a comment by Post, given the general interest. Armando asked me if it was possible, via Google Maps, get Latitude and Longitude from a city name or a road. The answer is yes! Through the Google Maps API geocoding service can be requested directly to Google from reprocessing our textual information (state, city, street) in geographical coordinates. You can try a sample online on the website of documementazione Google.

It was released beta 0.6 component Umapa Flash CS3 (Actionscript 3.0) - the package is also a version for Flex. With more and we notice the adoption of OpenStreetMap as the default provider. Also added was an advanced manager Marker and a number of various optimizations.

Google has made available APIs - in Javascript - to put its maps on any Web site. Vied how to implement the same thing with Flash!

We start from a free component, Umapa (Universal ActionScript 3.0 Mapping API - integrated with Google Maps), developed by AFComponents, a vertical components for Flash / Flex very reasonable and affordable. On the site, where you have to register to take advantage of free downloads, there are also versions of Umapa for ActionScript 2.0: G MAP Ver.2.6.1. In this case we investigate the version 0.4 Beta of Umapa for ActionScript 3.0 (inside the package, there is also a component Flex). That we're going to see is - obviously - a beta, and missing, then, some features in version 2.0 Actionscript (G Ver.2.6.1 MAP). However, look to the future, it seems more interesting to focus on this release, I tried both and, despite the greater comprehensiveness of release for Actionscript 2.0, the beta version for Actionscript 3.0 is considerably more efficient.

One consideration, but obviously underestimated during the development of applications in Adobe Flash: the difference between Player used for testing inside of your Flash and the object (or ActiveX EMBED) used by our browser. Who owns the "Macromedia" Flash MX (version 8 for instance, but this speech really goes for any version of Flash ...) when developing a movie and the inside of your test sends Flash Player running linked to the development package. When you publish your movie on the network and will "test" with the Flash Player browser you may experience some - substantial - differences!
