Pool Party hd Don’t get me wrong – my wife and I love the Mac and find Apple’s products brilliant. However, in response to my post yesterday about the lack of Flash Brian McBride made a great comment: It is about time someone runs down the isle past the memorized drones and smashes the Apple/Jobs screen with [...]

Forget Silverlight – is the iPhone the Flash killer?

Andrew Field — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 20:41:06 +0000

With the latest details about the iPhone from the Apple WWDC today, it made me consider the main thing that I feel the iPhone lacks – support for Flash. With Apple rolling out the developers, the example apps along with all the marketing and “I want one now” encouragement, Flash is losing out. The Matrix [...]

Not an event I was able to attend because I was teaching, but it looked really good. A number of sessions have now been uploaded so you can watch it again.

Printing in Flash 8 – the hard way

Andrew Field — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 23:15:59 +0000

I've been developing a Flash-based application for my websites called 'Practice Paper' for over two years now. The first one was on my ReviseICT.co.uk site, which I then developed further to appear on my SchoolHistory.co.uk site. Basic printing was on offer, but it didn't work very well.

Last year I posted extensively about the issues I was facing - see this post, also titled 'Printing in Flash 8' - the basic conclusion was that if you printed text from Flash everything would work out fine unless you wanted to print more than one page. Then the trouble starts - I tried an exhastive number of solutions and not one worked....

Or did it? Well, in some respects - no it didn't at all.

BBC praises Flash accessiblity

Andrew Field — Sat, 28 Oct 2006 21:07:00 +0000

As part of a well written piece about web accessibility I was very pleased to see the BBC identifying something that everyone needs to be made aware of. Far too often so called 'experts' say using Flash is a complete waste of time in terms of accessibility, unfairly criticising the technology.

In the short article the BBC identify how Flash can be used in a really positive way to make things more accessible.
