Is there a way to open inside an object contained in a flash movie (ScrollPane, Window, or something like that) a web page??? With other words, it is possible to build a simple browser in flash??
Flash has built in security measures that prevent bringing in variables from domains outside the one hosting the Flash movie, so I don't think this would be possible.
Flash can communicate with server side programs in the same domain. So flash can have data from php/asp. Now the php/asp program can acess other sites. So it will be a little round trip. Flash[request web page] -> php[get web page] -> php[data received] ->flash[data received] ->flash [display data] As PinotNoir said flash cannot acess data from another domain. hope this helps
It is possible but how do you intend to present the UI components just like buttons and textareas? are you going to write a custom HTML components deployer? I didnt see kind of things already done over the web
It is posible to build a swf like the one in the pic?? (supposing that the swf is on a PC, and the url can be anything.....google for example) Can a simple swf load webcontent from a url? Or it is posible to build a standalone swf that can incapsulate default browsers window??
Understand! Flex or Flash can communicate to the server from the same URL it was loaded from. The server side back-end (Java or PHP or whatever) would have the responsability to bring data from the URL you want to load and pass this data to the Flex/Flash application. My major concern is how you will convert this data (HTML code) to a page presentation.
