Got my ticket, am I too late for MAX?

31 Oct
2006

Nope! I’m on my way to MAX Asia Pacific 2006, and am presenting in both Taipei and Singapore. This will be really exciting for a first time presentation gig. I’ll be presenting on the following 3 topics (all of which are the same, or very similar to the topics presented last week at MAX in Las Vegas by David Zuckerman, Mark Shepherd and Christophe Coenraets) -

  • Combining Flex with PHP and Open Source
  • Building Rich Internet Applications with Flex Builder
  • Combining Flex and Flash Media Server for the Ultimate Engaging Experience

Looks like I better polish up my demo’s on the plane :-p

Cheers!

Hi Ted,

I’m glad you liked the content. I really hope that the people who attended MAX can walk away with something new, whether it be a new idea, a new way of thinking, or that they learnt something new.

Thanks for coming to see my sessions, I really appreciate it!

Happy flex’ing!

Hi, Andrew

Remember we have a photo taken in the MAX 2006 in Taipei ?!
I would like to send it to you, but I forgot to get your name card!
Please write a email to me, ok ?! My email is tedyeng@gmail.com

By the way, the question I asked you about “Localizing Flex Applications”, I found the answer in the developer guide and implemented a simple login box Flex app. to support English, traditional Chinese, and Simplied Chinese.

I also used AMFPHP to get the default language of user’s browser and changed the language of login box.

It is ok when I used firefox and safari, but not IE.

I found my PHP program got empty value of $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'] using AMFPHP through IE.

I posted the problem in the AMFPHP mailing list!

if you have any idea, please give me a hint!

Thank you very much ^^

PS: my app. is http://blog.tmu.edu.tw/tedyeng/Flex/Login/

Change the default language of browser (en_US, zh_TW, and zh_CN) will change the app. language.

Hi Ted,

You could also try implementing the browser/user-agent language in JavaScript and passing the langauge to your Flex application using flashvars. Something like this may work –>

var languageinfo = navigator.language? navigator.language : navigator.userLanguage;
var language = languageinfo.substr(0,2);

This would get you two characters i.e. ‘en’ or ‘zh’ or ‘fr’ etc. I haven’t tested this code, but a few Google searches for browser langauge detection should point you in the right direction.

Cheers, Andrew
