After months of downsizing, Flash creativity has been on a huge rationalization program. It is no longer enough to present animation in millions of colors and a hundred transparencies. It is no longer sufficient to provide interactivity and dynamism for their own sake.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe purpose of this collection is to show how designers have taken Flash and made it work for its supper. What we discover is a series of creations that place Flash at the hub of cutting edge web content.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe end result is a snapshot of Flash as the ideal medium.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn these amazing examples, we see the software pushed to its limits to create unbeatable applications--a collapsible family tree, an interactive video learning system, and a drawing tool, capable of running online!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBeyond this, we dip into the back-end capabilities to look at how to improve Flash still further. Some staple XML and PHP routines are brought in to add a bit of spice, while Flash's mysterious sharedObject command is hunted down and tamed to create a hybrid Tamagotchi houseplant--perfectly suited to lure surfers back to your website!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Connor McDonald,Paul Prudence,Gerald Yardface\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1590591585\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781590591581\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 8.18w x 0.56d","brand":"Connor McDonald","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48518930399487,"sku":"9781590591581","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3e119390-e018-46dd-9218-8256d680e6de.jpg?v=1778736198","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/flash-mx-application-and-interface-connor-mcdonald-9781590591581","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
