I think if you are on IOS 5 then you wont be able to detect this. See this artilce which has a relayed response from Apple. Good Luck. Bob http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6901363/detecting-the-iphones-ring-silent-mute-switch-using-avaudioplayer-not-worki

Do you have a tutorial where you are updating this table? I tried to implement this on an update instead of insert and it uploads the file to the server, but the $filename in the query is not updating. I suspect that it has something to do with the update not taking the name into the database. If you have a tutorial on this I would love to see it. BTW, I love your books, I have several that are constantly being read through and used for tips and reference.

IT requires the use of Javascript and the Anchor tag. In your header put: and in your form in place of the button use Submit One caveat, the users mouse must be on a bit of the text to make it activate and you do not get the mouse cues from the browser, so a button or image of a word may be better.

This is cool, but how do you do this in a pure AS3 AIR project? Maybe you can set it in the app descriptor? (swfname-app.xml)

Thank you for posting this Olga. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble getting it to work. I have imported com.adobe.serialization.json to my project. I am successfully retrieving this JSON data: http://www.iconclass.org/json/25F32(MAGPIE) I get the error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. I get this same error when using Mike Chambers' example at http://www.mikechambers.com/blog/2006/03/28/tutorial-using-json-with-flex-2-and-actionscript-3/ I must be doing something wrong and I bet it is something simple. Any ideas? Thank you, Greg Reser

Alex Gor — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:56:08 GMT

m282, I think you have to use native extensions on iOS devices to the same job that above code accomplishes on desktop/TV devices. NetworkInfo doesn't seem to work on all devices correctly. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/networkinfo.html

http://cookbooks.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=showdetails&postId=19473

Octavio Molano — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 06:19:44 GMT

In my previous post I don't know why there are some funny spaces in "findInte rfaces" and "NetworkIn fo". Those spaces should obviously be removed.

http://cookbooks.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=showdetails&postId=19473

Octavio Molano — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 06:17:40 GMT

I've managed to be able to use both NetworkInfo classes without creating additional classes, just by not importing them, but calling them by their fully qualified path and using generic Objects for the vectors. Maybe a little hacky, but it works. See below: var vNetworkInterfaces:Object; if (flash.net.NetworkInfo.isSupported) // This check could be improved, as maybe there are OSes other than iOS that don't support native NetworkInfo { trace('Getting MAC from NetworkInfo (AIR)'); vNetworkInterfaces = getDefinitionByName('flash.net.NetworkInfo')['networkInfo']['findInte rfaces'](); } else { trace('Getting MAC from NetworkInfo (ANE)'); vNetworkInterfaces = getDefinitionByName('com.adobe.nativeExtensions.Networkinfo.NetworkIn fo')['networkInfo']['findInterfaces'](); } for each (var networkInterface:Object in vNetworkInterfaces) { // Do your networkInterface stuff here. Use the notation networkInterface['property'] to avoid warnings } Hope this helps.

Yes, the same here with flex 3.1 the NetworkInfo.networkInfo.findInterfaces(); throws a #1009 Error

Very interesting, but a bit slow for images and not functional for files and also image/text --> extension

http://cookbooks.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=showdetails&postId=19579

iware — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 06:02:45 GMT

Hello, this is very interesting ! i tried it with indesign CS5.5. I created a new empty document and opened the DragnMagic Extension. - Files: I can't do anything with the fileTree : If i try to drag a *.jpg file from the list, i can't make it into the document. the mouse pointer stops itself on the border of the extension. :-( did I miss something ? i tried that with several extensions (.txt .png .pdf) - Textframes : I typed in some text in the textControl of the extension, and dragdrop it into indesign: WAOW I was AMAZED thats SO NICE :-D love it !!! Unfortuantly, in the other way it doesn't work. When i select a textFrame in my document and try to drag it, it stops itself on the border of the extension again. :-( - Images: Same behaviour, but it's kind of very slow: I have to wait 1 or 2 seconds with the finger ready to release the picture into the indesign document, before it shows me i can do it. So, It's functional from extension to indesign, but i cant make it work draging another picture from my document to the extension. Overall I'm happy because this leads to a lot of potentialy very handy extension and other ideas ! But if i can understand why i have all those issues would make my day :) TY for sharing this ! Kind regards, Lionel

Thanks David I built my site based on your lessons. I noticed a very strange problem with the confirmation URL sent via mail() function. This code was the problem: $message .= '&t='; I changed it to this and now it works: $message .= '&t='; I don't know why but in the confirmation URL "&" is not encoded to "&". For example: http://mysite.org/confirm.php?test222&t=df21d3c504fb6778490f5a80eaf10e68 and respectively the confirmation doesn't work because "t" is not recognized Is this a typo in David's code or something on my side is set wrong? Can somebody explain why is this? Thank you Stefan

You could see if anyone has already developed an ANE for this that you could leverage, or develop your own; http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air.html. I have not seen a universal solution however.

david petley — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:50:51 GMT

jarum215, I have not tried this, but I suspect you would need to use a named anchor in the div and a target in your href on the 'Show details'. Something like this could work - ...for the link - Show Details ...and in the div where the text should load - Its worth a try and I hope it helps.
