    Conflict between .buttonMode and KeyboardEvent?

    Hello, I've made a game. But as soon as I enable buttonMode for my buttons ('play game', 'instructions', etc) it breaks my keyboard controls for the game. stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyIsDown); Once I set btnPlay.buttonMode = true, the keyIsDown function is no longer...

    DOM troubles and inconsistencies

    Yes, it does. I've narrowed this problem down to the line that sets "todaysTitle". It's got me scratching my head. frozenpeas

    DOM troubles and inconsistencies

    Hi, I'm building a Mac dashboard widget. My problem comes down to this line: var todaysTitle = todaysNode.getElementsByTagName("title").length+" title nodes"; On Mac OS 10.5.4, this returns a length value of 1. On Mac OS 10.4.11, this returns a length value of 0. Does anyone know why this is...

    Load external SWF with transparent background

    Hi, This is not about Flash being transparent in an HTML page, wmode, or anything like that. I'm importing an SWF but its white background is visible overtop of the other content. I need to see only the contents of the imported SWF and not its background. How can I do this? Thanks in advance...

    Parse Atom feed?

    Hi, I'm by no means a JS pro. I've been Googling for hours, trying to find a way to parse an Atom feed with JS, so I can display the most recent post of an Atom feed in an HTML page. Has anyone here done this who can provide some help? Thanks. frozenpeas

    imagecopy cropping troubles

    Thanks, jpadie. I'll give it a try when I get home. I am getting $newwidth and $newheight from an earlier part in my script... they are the size of the image that this new cropped image is being made from. frozenpeas

    imagecopy cropping troubles

    I am trying to copy a part of one image to another. My trouble is that with portrait images, the aspect ratio gets squashed. I have tried the following: I figured it was because of $newwidth and $newheight... so I tried an if/else to swap them for portrait/landscape. But I got the same...

    trouble with imagecopymerge

    Interesting. This is working now. I added this line: imagealphablending($overlay,false); and I replaced: imagecopymerge($thumb,$overlay,0,0,0,0,197,158,100); with: imagecopy($thumb,$overlay,0,0,0,0,197,158); and that did the trick. So it's all working for me now... I'm taking a...

    trouble with imagecopymerge

    This is a PNG being placed over top of a JPG. The JPG has no areas intended for transparency -- only the PNG does. frozenpeas

    trouble with imagecopymerge

    Thanks, jpadie. I took a look at that user note. I tried adapting the code a couple of ways and the closest I got was setting a key colour as transparent, which isn't what I require. Here are my image files that I'm using. http://www.stephenpeasley.com/tek-tips/template.png...

    trouble with imagecopymerge

    I've been trying some things... with the same results. I'm still getting black showing where the underlying graphic should be seen. Here is where my code is at this point. Thanks again. $thumb = imagecreatetruecolor(197,158); imagealphablending($thumb,false); imagesavealpha($thumb,true)...
