I get inspired by the excellent tutorial Napolux , Flex 3, Adobe AIR and the API Feedburner , which shows how to write a simple application (or widget) Adobe AIR using Flex 3, to show how to make the exact same thing using Adobe Flash CS3.

I respond with this post, at the request of Andrea on how to insert the translator of Google in its web. There are several ways to take advantage of machine translation services available from Google and elsewhere. We can use plugins written by others, a simple JavaScript script from Google itself or mixed learning to use the API, ie a set of callable functions - as we shall see - in various ways.

Plugin

I will not dwell on this solution, as I think is not really relevant to the request of Andrew , if I understood well.

Here is an interesting extension for FireFox ( 2.0.0.9 patch released today ) written by Kris Zyp. RESTTest allows for send and receive check to a URL using the REST protocol, choosing between the canonical methods GET or POST (possibly customized) .
RESTTest can be used to test the XmlHttpRequest object and then to test applications that use Ajax. We can then quickly and easily simulate XHR requests and responses.
This extension is designed specifically for working with REST resources and support all HTTP methods.
In the field POST / PUT can enter all the parameters that we are sending to our test page, the standard syntax:

variable1 = value1 & variable2 = value2 & [...] value of variable _n = _n

This extension is also useful in testing the RSS feeds of a site or in the analysis of paramteri any RPC service.
