Six Things You should not forget when you create a Rich Internet Application(RIA)

hey folks
I just gone through a useful link by Serge in which he states 6 points you should follow while developing a RIA which wont annoy the end user as well as make sure they wont uninstall your application if you take care of some small stuffs while devloping it.

Your RIA should be compatible to all the below scenarios and less annoying.
1 Launching your application on login/startup-(Ask user preference after installation or add a checkbox to preference tab)
2 Always in front-(Ask user preference)
3 Automatically setting the file type-(Ask user preference)
4 Full screen applications(Should be based on the necessity and in full screen mode add buttons or shortcuts to jump to other applications)
5 Custom chrome- Minimize and close button is a must
6 Self signed applications- Get signed certificates for commercial application everybody is scared of harmful application.

Click the following URL for more details.

API Key initailization bug for flash google map

Google Maps API for Flash This API lets flash/Flex developers embed Google Maps in Flash applications.

While generating the API key you have to specify the exact URL of the website in which the application will be hosted otherwise it will throw an error "Initialization failed: please check the API key, swf location, version and network availability"

If you created the API key with your IP or doamin adress and after hosting if you browse it with the actual URL the application wont work for the same key.

Cheers and Have fun with Flash

Vulnerable IE 7.0(flaws in IE 7.0)

Hey Guys
The Internet Explorer 7.0 has a major BUG openly exposed now which can be a very good treat for Hackers. It is best to avoid using IE 7 for time being and try to update your IE7.0 with the patches once MS release it.

The PC WORLD says The IE may drop some malicious code in the clients/users PC which will be downloading other harmful software.

So don't visit susceptible Webpages from IE 7.0 or use alternate browser which will be the best option...

again Microsoft proves themselves as a bug home..

Keep Watching

Webservice in AS3

The biggest disappointment for me with flash CS3 was when I realized that there is no webservice support from AS3 eventhough it is supported in flex. I have to connect with webservice almost in all projects which lead me to conclude there is no way out for me until I found this sites http://manmachine-tech.blogspot.com and http://labs.alducente.com/?page_id=13.

There are few more sites I came across this one is the best which works fine with array of complex data-types also.
