[Works] BudakPantai.com

It’s towards the end of the year, and I’m glad it ends with this interesting project that started of as an experimental ground for the illustrator and for me as well, to play with scripts and performance control in a Flash site using Actionscript 3.0. The site is packed with lots of juice and preferences or settings are controlled through external XML(s).

While I only take care of the implementation and backend for the site, I’m delighted on how it turned out in the end, performance and aesthetically speaking. What do you think?

Things that I can think of in implementing the comment system :

  • Take existing XML guestbook script
  • Modify it and revise it to use with Flash
  • Flash takes in the chunk of the XML structure from the existing file, holds it to the memory, and if user inputs new data, combine old with new data
  • and sends the whole chunk of data as raw POST data
  • on the server side, a php file will do the dirty job in saving the POST data as .xml file.
