  • New Search for my Site

    I finally implmented the <a href=”http://www.atomz.com/”>Atomz.com</a> search engine for my site. I put the normal search off to the left in the 3rd module, and a link to the advanced search under it. I haven’t tweaked the settings on it yet, but I’ll do that over time to make it better. I remember seeing a surprising amount of usage half-a-year ago, so I’m sure it’ll be a welcome feature for people looking through my archives.

    If not, at least I will appreciate it as I was getting sick and tired of searching via my article list and then trying to match up the date via typing and retyping in archive URL’s until I found a match.

    Thanks <a href=”http://www.anupriyo.com/”>Anupriyo</a> for telling me about <a href=”http://www.atomz.com/”>Atomz'</a> Search!

  • JSAPI/JSFL Bug (another one)?

    *** Edited 11/14/2003 @ 7:01pm EST – see [edited] ***

    Ok, this one is a little weird, but repeatable which makes my day. I am guessing there is a global property that is scoped to a FLA file. This property is the latest URL you have typed for a Runtime Shared Library Symbol. So, if you right click on a Symbol in the library, and press the Export for Runtime Sharing checkbox, the URL field will become editable. You have to put something in this field before closing the dialogue box. What you enter in there I think then sets this global property. If you make any new symbols and set their Runtime Shared Library checkbox as well, their URL field will display what you last typed, even on creation of said symbol.

    I think there is another one for Import for Runtime Sharing. You can set it and the others follow suit, just like Export.

    You can set them both via JSAPI & MMExecute like so:

    Already some comments on the recent issue of the MX Developers Journal. Good to see the Flash articles getting proliferation.
