Clean HTML output from Flash

Igor posted a ‘Clean HTML output from Flash’ entry on his site today.

The FlashTextEditor(FTE) is set of Adobe Flash 8 components he works on. With CSS1 properties capable of editing at runtime this is extremely cool.

Here is an excerpt from his entry …

“When StyleSheet support was added to Flash back in version 7, it was disappointing to discover that text fields using it are not editable. There was a possibility to make it work by keep using Flash HTML in the background and somehow render the ouput using the style sheet. It didn’t look that it could work well so I postponed working on it and gave priority to other features missing in Flash Text Editor(FTE). Then I found some spare time and decided to give it a try. With lots of XML and String parsing involved, at the end it works amazingly well! Not only that output is clean but it looks almost the same when rendered inside the browser. …”
