Flash recommendation?
-
I've got a (friendly) request to put together a basic survey in Flash. Pop a question, send answer to server, fetch next question from the server, and so on. The thing is that it is too basic a project to justify buying dev tools for it. Anyone can recommend anything free? Thanks folks.

Sorry for the unhelpful reply, but... Why Flash?

I can't quite say, to be honest... hmmm, thinking back I recall my friend talking about protecting the content from easy copying.
Fair 'nuff. :)

How about WPF/Silverlight instead? ;)

For Flash you can download a free tryout, it will work for 30 days. Or you can check http://www.flashdevelop.org/community/. A clean free IDE for writing/compiling flash. But that includes no graphics so all text must be programmatically created, and graphics loaded... But if the content resides on the server, then you can create a super simple (Encrypted) JavaScript application that fetches the content. It is the content, not the fetching you want to protect, right? Good Luck

A trial copy is fully functional. If you've already ran a trial and it expired, just install a fresh copy of XP on a spare drive. Here is a link to Flash v.7 [MX04]. http://www.sws.pcc.edu/instructor/mwright/software/Windows/Flash%20MX%202004%20Trial/Install_Flash_MX_2004.exe[^] If you are wondering why i'm linking to an older version rather than the flavour of the day, it's because i've worked with it for at least two years and come to prefer it over any other version, except maybe v.5 Assuming you are familiar with JavaScript, you should have no trouble in making the survey since ActionScript is just another flavor of ECMAScript and there are plenty of tutorials if you get stuck on one particular thing.

There's Powerbullet Presenter[^], free, and Namo Flash[^], not free, but cheaper than you know what.
