Alright, here’s the skizzy:
– if I toggle to another app or My Applications, and then back, Central will show my changes to my app file
– if I toggle to another app or My Applications, and then back, Central will <b>NOT</b> show my changes to my shared library used within my app file. I have to reboot Central.
Those working with agents should be used to this; however, if your utilizing Shared Libraries, something to watch out for.
I love these marketing strategies. Just saw this commercial on TV, and it ended at the climax; then the URL comes on. So, leaving her majesty to deal with figuring out how to get to the Caribbean from Expedia.com, I rush back to my comp to see the site. The Flash video plays quickly the commercial in full length. At the end, you?re directed to the main site.
The guy driving the Camry is a loser… he gave up… I woulda’ drove that Galant right through those frikin’ falling cars, action movie style!
Dislike the colors and shapes as they are definately not marketing to my gen. However, love the simplicity, speed, and marketing use of the site.

When using Shared Libraries in Central, you have to manually include the file’s in your application’s product XML file via the file html tag with the src attribute to the file on your website, absolute.
I must have glazed over this in the documentation as I was wondering why my Shared SWF’s weren’t getting installed.
…however, this still doesn’t explain why they don’t work in my app. I tried changing the export frame, changing the swf path to the website path instead of locally, and a few other things, but still no dice. Maybe I’ll figure it out tomorrow.

If you can’t say something positive, don’t say anything at all. :: grits teeth :: Damn, that’s a hard virtue to live up to when press releases like this come along. :: deep inhale… exhale… :: Ok.

Empowering marketers to better track their results utilizing Flash is a very cool concept; hopefully helping them garner more information from their customers on responses to ads.
However, I strongly disapprove of Macromedia endorsing the use of those annoying pop-up Flash ads. This contributes to the negative effects to Flash’s adoption, the furthering of initiatives to add Flash blocking to pop-up blocking software, and a general negative connotation towards Flash as a whole. We’re already trying to shake off the Skip-intro filth that has tarnished our foot in the door. This only makes it more diffucult and frustrating to know we’re not getting much help.
