Flex IFrame – Web browser in flash (update)
You can not have a web browser inside your web flash applications right? Well, you can! This solution uses html iframe to generate fake build in browser. So the behaviour of the browser in flash is the same as the one you are previewing this flash in (it is the same one). The best part of it is, you can manipulate with the position and size of this browser directly from flash. sk.yoz.html.IFrame solution was inspired by Alistair Rutherford, www.netthreads.co.uk.

break continue nesting optimization script
Code optimization
First, my golden rule: method with more than 12 rows is too long. Methods should be short, simple, clean and reusable. In most cases your methods fits into 5-12 rows. If not, you should consider rewriting your methods.
Look at the next code. There is too much nested tests. Soon you get lost with more and more nested levels:
function gimmeResult(a, b, c)
{
var result;
if(a)
{
if(b || c)
{
if(b && c < 0)
{
result = 1;
}
else
{
result = 2;
// where am I?
}
}
else
{
result = 3;
}
}
else
{
result = 4;
}
return result;
}Try to linearize code, it is much more cleaner for reading when no multiple nesting used:
function gimmeResult(a, b, c)
{
if(!a)
return 4;
if(!b && !c)
return 3;
if(b && c < 0)
return 1;
return 2;
}
