For developing you can use the server (install like any other software), but the Zend framework is nothing more than php files, so all you need to do is upload the framework to you hosting server and all should be well.. You may have to configure a few things, but you should be able to do that yourself. There's plenty of documentation on installing and configuring Zend on their website. So, only get the server edition if you don't already have a dev server (on you computer) installed, like Apache. Otherwise, just grab the framework: http://framework.zend.com/download/latest Select "minimal package" on the page above to only get the framework (no install). Or grab both and see what each one does but the minimal package is what you need to upload to your hosting server. As for where Flex/Flash Builder comes in.. FB is the tool you use to create a Flash/Flex application. Zend, AMFPHP, etc.. is used to communicate with your backend from your application, using RemoteObject RemoteObject API http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/rpc/remoting/RemoteObject.html Using RemoteObject components http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=data_access_4.html ...

Go for Flash/Flex Remoting. When using PHP, AMFPHP or ZEND are good implementations. Zend is a complete framework, so if you're not familiar with it, it might be a bit harder to learn than AMFPHP. On the other hand, AMFPHP is no longer being developed (if I'm not mistaken), while ZEND is - and is supported by Adobe. http://framework.zend.com/ http://devzone.zend.com/article/3743 http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.amf.html http://www.amfphp.org/ ...

If you want to reuse library assets across projects, you can export them as swc's (Flash Components).

ah, I missed the 2nd version of the code You have to take the loaderMachine(); call out of the loop, call it after the loop. function xmlReady(evt:Event):void {      xml=new XML(evt.currentTarget.data);      var xmlListUrls:XMLList=new XMLList(xml.image.url.text());      var xmlListNames:XMLList=new XMLList(xml.image.name.text());      var xmlListDescs:XMLList=new XMLList(xml.image.description.text());      for (var g:Number = 0; g < xmlListNames.length(); g++) {           imagePack.push({name:xmlListNames ,url:xmlListUrls ,desc:xmlListDescs });      }       // start loading images      loaderMachine(); } You're overwriting you loader instance each time you load an image, that's not good if you want it to stick around (display each loaded image). So in the method, create a local Loader instance and add it to the Array stack. Don't start the enterFrame event handler until all images are loaded. You can do so in the imageReady() event handler (check if counter equals array length). Don't add event listeners in the enterFrame event handler, you're adding them over and over again. So remove these from entFrm() imageIcons .addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,btn_mouse); imageIcons .addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,btn_mouse); Don't use Event.target (unless you know what you're doing), use currentTarget instead. function imageReady(evt:Event):void {      var loader:Loader = (event.currentTarget as LoaderInfo).loader;      loader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, btn_mouse);      loader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, btn_mouse);      addChild((loader);      count++;      if (count<imagePack.length) {           loaderMachine();     }else{           addEventListener(Event.ENTERFRAME, entFrm);     }} Don't use Array.length in a loop condition, as this will check the lenght with each iteration, slowing down the loop. Set it to a local variable once and use that as the loop condition. var len:uint = imageIcons.length; for(var i:uint=0; i<len; i++) {} Last but not least, you're probably better off using a tween engine rather than an enterFrame event to move things around. Look into TweenLite. http://blog.greensock.com/tweenlite/ It now looks like the enterFrame event continues untill you roll over one of the buttons? If so, that can't be good.. function loaderMachine():void {      var loader:Loader = new Loader();      loader.load(new URLRequest(imagePack[count].url));      loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageReady);      imageIcons.push(loader); } ...

If you want to load them in the order provided in the xml file, you'll have to load them one at a time, rather than all at once (in a loop). The randomness of the images loading when using a loop is because each image has a different filesize, so smaller images load faster than larger ones (DUH) and loading external assets is asynchronous. In short, no matter how hard you try, if you load them in a loop, they'll never come in the order you want. So basically you'll need to: - use a counter variable to keep track of how many images are already loaded (initially 0) - load first image (counter = 0) - when loaded load next image and increase counter (counter += 1) - repeat till all images are loaded (counter == array length-1) ...

In AS3 there hardly ever is any need to "name" movieclips, unlike in AS2 where you needed an instance name to be able to reference them. Since you're already storing the created movieclips in an array, I see no need to name them at all. for (var i=0; i<rows; i++) {      for (var j=0; j<columns; j++) {           imageHolder = new MovieClip;           imageHolder.x = leftMargin + j * imageWidth * marginX;           imageHolder.y = 290 + i * imageHeight * marginY;           addChild(imageHolder);           imageHolders.push(imageHolder);           trace (imageHolder);      } } ...

remove the var keyword ldr.load(req); By the way, you can add a Loader instance directly to the stage since it's a DisplayObjectContainer, rather than having to create a MovieClip instance first. So this: var MAI_catchEmision_target_mc:MovieClip = new MoiveClip(); addChild(MAI_catchEmision_target_mc); MAI_catchEmision_run = true; MAI_catchEmision_target_mc._x = stage.stageWidth+10; MAI_catchEmision_target_mc._y = stage.stageHeight+10; var ldr:Loader = new Loader(); var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); ldr.load(req); MAI_catchEmision_target_mc.addChild(ldr); Can be reduced to:   MAI_catchEmision_run = true;   var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);   var ldr:Loader = new Loader();   ldr.x = stage.stageWidth+10;   ldr.y = stage.stageHeight+10;   ldr.load(req);   addChild(ldr); read the docs on Loader: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/display/Loader.html Also note that properties that had an underscore in AS2 no longer have one in AS3. _x -> x _y -> y _width -> width _height -> height etc.. ...

All you need to know about AS2 is that there's no new MovieClip() but you use createEmptyMovieClip() instead. There's no Sprite class and probably the most important thing: events are dispatched in the scope of the object they are attached to, rather than in the scope they were created in. If that doesn't make any sense, google AS2 Delegate. Other than that, if you know AS3, don't bother with AS2. If you ever get handed an AS2 project you should be able to figure things out, without in depth knowledge of AS2. It's not like they're 2 different languages (e.g. PHP vs Java). ... View more
