Update: I am now going to mark the newly added links for each update of this post by highlighting them.
Facebook-application-related --------------------------------------------------------------------------
* (See the other post about the Facebook platform integration for a much longer categorized list of links...)
PHP + MySQL --------------------------------------------------------------------------
PHP - Specific functions etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
mysql_query - includes links to related functions: mysql_fetch_array, mysql_num_rows, mysql_affected_rows
mysql_real_escape_string - apparently you should use this on your query strings before sending them
include - this documentation also applies to 'require' (and mainly to 'include_once' and 'require_once')
Boolean (type) - with useful comments on various funky details of comparisons, casting, how the representation is output
PHP & Flash --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cron Jobs --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Running PHP cron jobs – regular scheduled tasks in PHP
Cron Job setup on Webhostingpad
Javascript --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash [games] --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accessing PHP variables in Javascript - a simple issue, but I needed to know :P
AJAX GET and POST examples - mostly because I wanted to remind myself of the format of the parameters string, and didn't realize the content-type had to be set for the POST to indicate it would be in name/value pair format if I was sending a string I constructed.
Setting and clearing timed events - for AJAX polling for database changes
Flash [games] --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash/Actionscript [basic/reference] --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash CS4 Migration Guide from AS2 to AS3 - I expect this to be quite useful when I'm Googling around for random issues I encounter in Actionscript and I find blog posts and whatnot that happen to use AS2 for code examples. Credit to John for finding this. :)
Flash/Actionscript [specifics] --------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- The Actionscript Language --
(since there's no native support)
-- Relevant AS Classes --
flash.display.Graphics - access programmatic drawing functions (lines, circles, fills, ...)
-- Buttons --
-- Movie Clips (and other DisplayObjects) --
[AS3] Writing a custom class to control a library object (MovieClip subclass in this case)
^ extensive tutorial. I like this one.
This is a multi-page/many-step tutorial... haven't looked at it much.
One of those long multi-page tutorials, but this might have some useful bits in there. (Haven't looked at it much yet.)
scroll down and try what's mentioned at the end, maybe
-- Event handling --
(oh yeah! I remember using this same structure in Javascript...)
-- Actionscript + external code functionality --
[AS3] Forum thread: "Sending variables from AS3 to php and back to AS3" - really helpful posts about how to set up the necessary code pieces (the Actionscript and the PHP), with code snippets
[AS3] "Working with external data" - article with code examples about using the URLVariables and URLLoader classes, pulling from external documents, and accessing external scripts
-- Drawing --
This looks like AS2, but the code structure gives me the basic idea of how to use the drawing API functions together to create a simple drawing app.
-- Edges/intersection --
-- (uncategorized) --
