There's a few alternatives there Colin and I need to look in to it to see which best suits what I want to do. Thanks for that. It's good stuff. ... View more

Hi Colin and thanks for your prompt response. When you say web app, do you mean just a normal web page or would it be a web app developed in Animate. That's what I'm trying to clarify. I can code HTML and CSS so a web page is not a problem. It's embedding a web page's content in an app. So I can update the web page which will also update an installed app. Browsers automatically scroll to accommodate different amounts of content. That's what I'm trying to achieve in my app. I'm not sure what you mean about the exit button at all sorry. I don't know why someone would be wanting to leave anything??? Thanks again. ... View more

I've updated that Colin. My app is still Pending Publication - nearly two hours now. So it's looking good. Previous rejections were within 10 minutes of submission. I was going to post when it's finalised but I didn't want to count my chickens . . . . It was using Air 20 because I hadn't updated Animate in my CC account. It's the first time I've really used it. So the big lesson is . . . make sure you've updated your apps!!! ... View more

I have also just finished a chat conversation with Google Play support. This is what they advise: 1)  I see that version 1 of your apps have this file in it, which contains a vulnerable version of OpenSSL: lib/armeabi-v7a/libCore.so The file contains version 1.0.2d of OpenSSL. 2) You’ll need to upgrade your app to use Versions 1.02f/1.01r or higher. New apps or updates containing pre-1.02f/1.01r versions of OpenSSL will be blocked. 3)   Here’s how you can resolve this issue: Download the latest version of OpenSSL: https://www.openssl.org/source/ 4)   To confirm your OpenSSL version, you can do a grep search for ($ unzip -p YourApp.apk | strings | grep "OpenSSL"). (apparently a grep search is something to do with Linux). 5)   Sign in to your Play Console and submit the updated version of your app. Make sure to increment the version number of your APK. So there ya go. Nowt to it!! I'm just working my way through all this . . . being careful not to break anything. ... View more

This is what the Google team have replied: Thanks for contacting Google Play Developer Support. I understand you have some questions about the SslErrorHandler security vulnerability. I took a look at your app, and version 1.0.0 of Coaching Wheel3 has the following class, which contains a vulnerable version of SslErrorHandler: File in APK: lib/armeabi-v7a/libCore.so Here’s how you can resolve this issue: To properly handle SSL certificate validation, change your code to invoke SslErrorHandler.proceed() whenever the certificate presented by the server meets your expectations, and invoke SslErrorHandler.cancel() otherwise. If you are using a 3rd party library that’s responsible for this, please notify the 3rd party and work with them to address the issue. After making changes, sign in to your Play Console and submit the updated version of your app. Make sure to increment the version number of your APK. Check back after five hours - we’ll show a warning message if the app hasn’t been updated correctly. I'm just looking through this now but to be frank, it's all new to me. ... View more

Hi Colin, I've tried several new apps with new certificates. As far as I can see, in Animate CC, you can only select 2048 bit when you create a new certificate. It's greyed out, you can't alter it. See this screen shot: I have just had a more detailed reply from Adobe support which seems to have more specific detail. I'm just reading through that now. I'll post what they've said. ... View more

I've sent you a message with a link so you can see what the project does / and looks like. It's not that techy a project I don't think so I can't see why it would be causing such an issue with Google???

Yes, number 7 was the same too. This is what I get. "rejected for violating our Malicious Behavior or User Data policy.

4th attempt to publish: I've tried the following steps: 1)    Update your air sdk (help>manage adobe air sdk), Find and download archived versions of Adobe AIR SDK 2)    open C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS6\Common\First Run\ActionScript 3.0\jvm.ini in flash and change the line (Although the file path is different because I'm using Adobe CC ) -Xmx128m to -Xmx1024m and save.  close flash cs6 and reopen and retry publishing. First question: Although I've downloaded and unzipped the suggester air sdk. Both are still listed in HELP-MANAGE AIR dialogue box. See screen shot. Is that right . . . it seems to be using the default one??? Can't seem to remove the previous sdk or select the one I've just downloaded. I've spent a fair bit of time searching the Adobe and Google support pages. Is this something I should expect every I try to publish an app or is it me being dumb!!? Thanks. ... View more

So it's been rejected again: " for violating our Malicious Behavior or User Data policy. " I've downloaded and unzipped the latest air.sdk.

It is acceptable to use the php method for an app - it just wouldn't work at all? Or do I use navigateToUrl . This is the only method that would work in an app? Or are both methods workable in an app? Sorry to be a pain, but I really need to clear this point up for myself. ... View more

Hi, I've at last got to the point where I'm finishing the form and this project . . . at last. I'm trying to make the code you gave above work with this form structure but it's not working obviously. For the AS3 front end of the form I've got this: submit_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, sendMessage); function sendMessage(e:MouseEvent):void{ var my_vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables(); my_vars.senderName = name_text.text; my_vars.senderEmail = email_text.text; my_vars.senderMsg = message_text.text; var my_url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mail.php"); my_url.method = URLRequestMethod.POST; my_url.data = my_vars; var my_loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); my_loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES; my_loader.load(my_url); name_text.text = ""; email_text.text = ""; message_text.text = "Thank you! Your notes have been sent"; } I'm not sure where these two lines go - I'm trying to send to the email address and / or the phone number the user enters. navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:"+emailS)); navigateToURL(new URLRequest("sms:"+smsnumberS)); On the PHP side I've got this: <?php $to = "yourAddress@domain.com"; $subject = ($_POST['senderName']); $message = ($_POST['senderMsg']); $message .= "\n\n---------------------------\n"; $message .= "E-mail Sent From: " . $_POST['senderName'] . " <" . $_POST['senderEmail'] . ">\n"; $headers = "From: " . $_POST['senderName'] . " <" . $_POST['senderEmail'] .

OK, thanks Colin. What I'm going to try and do is have a menu appear which, when the user hits the back button on their phone, gives them a navigation menu which gives them the option to go to any point in the project OR exit. That's useful. Thanks for your feedback. ... View more
