(Like form fields in PDFs.). Haven't found anything yet, but wonder if it's possible with something based on your code? Do you have or know of a way of doing it? (I don't have the time to decode and understand the Flash file spec unfortunately) Thanks for any help :) Hi Denis,

I am looking for something little diffferent.As of now I am new to this SWF and FLV thing.However,I am doing my homework to get acquainted to it.My issue is to find some programmable way to find if SWF has an embedded FLV in it.Can you guide me in this or point me to some related stuffs which helps me in finding out if the swf contains an embedded FLV? Thanks in advance, Puneet Hi Denis,

Some really helpful information there. I’m sorry for little off-topic, but I want to ask you about design of this site. Did you make this template yourself or got from any templates website? Looks pretty cool for me. Wonderful well this reading. Wow great site! Some really helpful information there.

Hope you continue to flesh out this class and look forward to seeing what else you come up with. Thanks again!

It looks really neat, but could you update the program?

There is one piece of code I simply can not get my head around, its the readBox method. Would you be willing to send me an email with explaination (if you can find the time), I would be very gratefull. The line that gives me most problems is current<>(32-size) At the start off is 3 and size is 15, so in simple terms it would be current <> 17 What does this do... Hmm while typing this I think I got a clue. I was under the impression that you could only push of (or discard) bits on the right side, hehe. But integers can be only 32 bits in size, so you are pushing them out on the left aswell. Phew, what a discovery. Thanks for sharing your code, I am learning loads!

I'm currently putting together a searchable index of AIR applications at http://www.theairbay.com/ (should be live within a week or two) and I'm including your app in the index. I have a few questions regarding the entry for the SWF parser. Feel free to reply via email if you want. 1. What version is this? 2. Is it being released under a particular license? 3. Is there a better description than what I currently have? ("Simple, but useful tool to copy image resources from your SWF files.). 4. Will you download link remain the same or will I need to update it in the future. As a fellow Flash developer...thanks for pushing the envelope; it's always a pleasure to watch :) Keep up the great work.

Will be very explotable in year or two, believe me. :) 2Claude: No, it’s a new type of offline applications, you do not need anything except Adobe AIR to use it (the same for Win and Mac).
