In this post, I will add code to identify each request uniquely, give you a class called "AbstractClient" that will handle most of the mechanics and is easily extended. The idea is to give you a base on which to build. Essentially, for [...]

The series on Playing FLV files in AS3 was probably the most popular post on this blog. So I thought I would take it one step further: show SubTitles from an .SRT file over the FLV while it is playing.
First, you need to read this post by Jankees van Woezik. He did a great [...]

Hello Everyone,

This method was developped over time, I have written many different web service clients since last summer, about 20 of them; for different web services. Some of them require no parameters at all, some of them require GET [...]
