Getting Started with Flash Lite 2.0
Getting Started with Flash Lite 2.0
In a previous article, Getting Started with Flash Lite, I showed you how to work with Flash Lite 1.1. You learned that Flash Lite works with many types of mobile devices including PDAs, mobile phones and DVD players. You also learned that you have to use ActionScript 4 in Flash Lite 1.1 and that this can be quite limiting.
In this tutorial, I’ll use Flash 8 and Flash Lite 2.0 to create the same application from the earlier tutorial on Flash Lite 1.1. We’ll create a simple standalone application that shows today’s date as well as the number of days until Christmas. Of course, you could change the application slightly if you want to calculate the number of days until your birthday or some other important event!Note: If you have difficulties downloading the source files or PDF, you might have a problem with your cookies.
