Is there anyway to display a web page inside an application?
If not, I hope something that would allow this is included in the next update. It is very important for displaying advertisements in games (which are very popular).

Just use Mochi Ads, Moch is great for games, in the next update they are bringing out all the other Mochi features.
How do you know that the Mochi objects will be able to pull this off?
It seems possible to do in AS3 quite easily, I might do this at some point, unless somebody provides an alternative.
It is easy to do it with AS3. It would be nice if I could work it directly into the game (perhaps displaying an advertisement between levels).
Jason
Just a question, but is other support besides Mochi going to be available?
And, if one has MMF2 Dev can one use a sponsor's preloader as their preloader?
1. Maybe at some point.
2. Yes.
Jason, you can already put ads between levels with Mochi Ads, the other Mochi things comming out in the next update are Mochi Scores, Mochi Coins, Mochi Social and Mochi Analytics.
Can I embed Mochi Ads between levels into the game using MMF2? It is easy to embed Mochi Ads between levels using AS3 but is there a way to do it inside MMF2 without having to create the game with MMF2 and then use AS3 to import the .swf files created with MMF2 and then use AS3 to insert the ads?Quote:

Yes, you can do it at the beginning or end of any frame.
Suppose I want to display something other then an add (like a news feed or some pictures) from a web page inside the app. How would I go about doing this?

You can use the Get object to ask a script for information or get a web page and parse it yourself, then you can display the information as you want.
I wish it was as easy as you described it. There are many obstacles in-between. Firstly get object gives you the raw data in a single line and it is a hell of a problem sorting out what is what. Secondly there are no objects ported to flash which render html which actually will solve a lot of problems if such ability was available.Quote:

Hi LB,
There is no doubt that it can be with limits done. But then this limit forces you to either stick to a static dull layout or compromise to repeatedly change your SWF for any changes you make in your php script. I think we need to persuade FVivolo to port his beautiful web object to be used in flash applications.
I think flash has the ability to display html built-in. Although it is limited.

Hi UrbanMonk
Thank you for the link. There are no such limits in Flash Builder 4 but then it will not give the easy flexibility of MMF to get command of your application. And unfortunately there is at the moment no possibility of utilizing it in MMF.
