Google Maps can be easily integrated into Flash with an API key for the application's domain. Though, since each Google Maps API key can only be assigned to one domain, if your website contains two domains reading the same server (example: www.mysite.com and www.mysite.org), you will need two separate API keys for each domain. While ideally I'd prefer to redirect one domain to the other, this isn't always the case for how a client wants their site to read. In order for the SWF file containing Google Maps to load successfully in multiple domains, the ActionScript file needs to be edited accordingly. Though the final result can also be achieved using a combination of JavaScript and ExternalInterface in Flash, I found it easiest to use AS3's LocalConnection to convert the SWF's domain into a String and then indexed with an if/else statement to decide with API key ActionScript should use:
import flash.net.LocalConnection; var lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection(); var domain:String = lc.domain; if (domain.indexOf("com") != -1) { map.key = "key-A"; } else { map.key = "key-B"; } map.setSize(new Point(P1, P2)); map.addEventListener(MapEvent.MAP_READY, onMapReady); swfMovieClip.addChild(map);

Sad to be on the tail end of summer, but loving my new Droid's camera, especially with the Vignette (demo) app.
Not quite 'work', seeing as my new second blog, Fat Pants, is a personal self-initiated project, documenting my food life in the DC area. I modified the free Shaken Grid theme and added a couple extra functionalities (ie: comments). Check it out for mouthwatering pics and great DC area restaurant recommendations.

With a recent Flash project, I was struggling to find a solution to display bolded HTML text from XML files that uses the <strong> tag. The reason I wanted to use <strong> instead of <b> was because the XMLs were being generated from MODx content management system. Since Flash cannot read the <strong> tag, I used the RegExp class in AS3 to find and replace <b> with <strong> in the XML content text before sending it to my htmlText in Flash to read. Below is the snippet of code is used:
var myPattern:RegExp = /strong/g; var str:String = xml.content.toString(); contentTxt.htmlText = str.replace(myPattern, "b");
Though a simple solution, took me awhile a bit of research to arrive at the above conclusion. Therefore hope this saves some time for others!
