Long time no post – so many distractions – my beautiful wife & daughter plus at school we’ve had OFSTED, Naacemark / ICT Mark inspections then there have been holidays in Scotland and much much more…. Plus I’m continually developing the ContentGenerator.net applications – more posts about them in the coming few days.
Anyway, I’m still looking for an ideal solution for displaying RSS on a static webpage. On my ReviseICT.co.uk website I display the latest BBC technology news in a sidebar. I really like this solution as it continually updates the site, keeping it fresh and current.
My aim is to show content from each of the forums that I run on the relevant website. I’d like to show the latest posts on the History Teachers’ Discussion forum plus the Student History Help forum on the SchoolHistory.co.uk homepage, I’d like to do the same with the ContentGenerator.net forum and the EffectiveICT.co.uk forum.
However, I cannot use the same method that I use for the BBC feed. This seems to be because the Invision Board RSS is a completely different format to the standard RSS.

Firstly – ICT is the term educators in the UK, but now in many other places to, use to describe the use of computers within education. ICT stands for Information Communication Technology. On another of my websites I’ve created a Flash activity that asks people to consider what ‘effective ICT’ really is.
I actually created this because every year I’m asked to deliver a session about ICT to new trainee teachers. I try my best to make this hands on, exploring interactive learning materials to spark an interest. However, I really felt that people who attended the session weren’t being stretched and consequently they weren’t being asked to think for themselves ….

To cut a longer story short – go to FlashGen.com.
As for the longer story: I’ve been working on my Multi-choice quiz generator today and while finishing off a few aspects of the interface I came across another annoying problem. I’m using the standard Flash component buttons (as in Flash 7 and later). In the interface, I want to provide the user with some information about the type of quiz they can make. Simple, I thought….

I was searching this morning to try and find a solution for an image resizing problem. Basically I’m looking for a way to import and replace and existing image in Flash. Using the same solution I use for my ContentGenerator.net applications I can easily import and replace images, but the problem comes if the new image is a different size from the original one. My idea is to somehow track / read the image properties and then get Flash to resize the new image accordingly.
Anyway I couldn’t find much to help, but I did come across a Flash site that I’d never seen before – Oddhammer.com….

Following a bit of research I’ve discovered why I’ve been experiencing so many issues with Urlencoding (as explained in my previous post).
From this page – http://www.permadi.com/tutorial/urlEncoding/ – it would appear that the + sign becomes %2B as I thought. However, it also explains that is urlencoded as %20 or +. This means that any urlencoded text that contains the + sign will change this to a space.

I make a great deal of use of the ‘escape’ and ‘unescape’ commands within Flash. To find out more you can read the relevant Flash online documentation.
When working with data saving and loading tasks, such as with the Interactive Storyboard developments but more specifically with my ContentGenerator.net applications, I use them to enable special characters such as é â ä à to work in my games and applications. This has been a great solution to entend the potential use of my applications.
However, I’m encountering a rather strange issue….

Using the tools I developed for the SchoolHistory.co.uk games search, I’ve now launched a simliar feature for my ReviseICT.co.uk website.

Unlike SchoolHistory.co.uk’s wider remit, the ReviseICT.co.uk website is much more focused upon just interactive games and activities so I hope that the dynamic Flash menu will become central to the website. As additional games and exercises are added, I just update a .swf datafile and the various menus across the site will all be updated.

This is something I’ve had ‘nearly completed’ for ages, but I feel confident enough to allow others to use it now. With the copious number of history game topics that I’ve got on the SchoolHistory.co.uk website, together with the topics that other history teachers are developing using my ContentGenerator.net programs, I found that it was too tricky for students to find the games they were looking for.

I thus developed a Flash-based menu system that would allow users to search and sort the various games until they found what they were looking for….

With the new Flash 8, I’ve been experimenting with the new ’save and load’ features. With all my Flash activities, one massive area that has been lacking has been the ability to save and load data. Flash is fantastic for building an interesting and eye-catching environment, ideal as it allows you to setup the screen exactly as you want – specific to students’ needs.
See all the new features in Flash 8 on the Macromedia website
However, unless the task can be easily completed in one lesson, the limitations of Flash are clear to see. Or rather, were clear to see.
