Creating a Killer Flash Site - Update 1: Init()

Published May 10th, 2007 in: ActionScript 3, Flash

Ok, so I'm building my new full Flash site from the ground up, all in ActionScript 3.0. First up is connecting it to a new simple blog engine that I'm developing in PHP/MySQL. I'll be documenting the whole process as we go.

Application goals, overview, todo, specs:

  • Flash frontend coded in AS3
  • Basic functionality just like any "regular" HTML page
  • XHTML 1.0 Strict! validation
  • Simple backend, database driven, PHP/MySQL
  • Unique URLs, SEO using SWFAddress
  • ScrollWheel functionality, Win/Linux/Mac
  • Advanced page caching using Local SharedObject
  • Added multimedia, inline videoplayer etc.
  • Total frontend app size: < 100 KB
