Facebook , ActionScript , Flex - Author:John Gag at 10:21 AM
Adobe and facebook have just come out with a new ActionScript
Library API to connect flex and facebook. It looks pretty cool and I
recommend poking around at the development center located here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/facebook/
They have even supplied an easy step by step article to get started which can be found here:

I am going to have to play with this on my spare time that does not exist! :)

Does anyone know of a good CSS Editor plugin to add to Eclipse FB3?
I have done a little searching and the ones I found seem to not be
supported anymore but maybe I am having a space out friday moment.
Thanks in advance.

Last friday Internet Explorer caused me some huge headaches (If you couldn't tell from my post). While searching for a FireBug alternative I came across DebugBar for Internet Explorer.
It
seems to be the best solution for debugging all forms of IE. You
should check it out if you do not have it already. Ofcoarse I would
love to know an alternative if a better one is out there.
Hopefully some of the headaches can be resolved a little more quickly!

So it is a beautiful day, warm and sunny and ladies are busting out
the skimpy warm weather clothes. What could possible ruin this day for
a single 25 year old ColdFusion Developer?....
OH YEAH, INTERNET F@*!ing EXPLORER!
I sure hate this job sometimes!! THANKS IE!

To set the width or height of a component to a percentage in ActionScript use percentWidth instead of just Width.
Example:
lineChart.percentWidth=100;
Just a little quick hitter for anyone that may not know.

BlackBerry , iPhone - Author:John Gag at 9:30 PM
I try not to blog too much about Blackberry or iPhone but Beejive
is just too cool not to blog about. If you have a Blackberry or iPhone
and have just about every instant messenger account like myself (AIM®,
iChat®, MobileMe®, MSN®/Windows Live®, Yahoo!®, MySpace, GoogleTalk®,
ICQ®, & Jabber) you must get Beejive. Do not believe me? Download and try for yourself:
http://www.beejive.com/
After the trial it is almost a guarantee you will shell out the $20 bucks! ;)
Oh yeah almost forgot... Beejive uses your existing data plan: No SMS charges!!!!

Mango Blog , ColdFusion - Author:John Gag at 1:54 AM
I decided to make a quick plugin that displays links to share a
post. Mark Aplet has already done this in a custom tag but I thought
it would be an easy plugin. Unfortunately I ran out of time tonight so
here is just a beta version. In the next release you will be able to
decide which share icons you would like to display. The custom tag is
a lot more functional right now as you can just comment out whatever
tags you do not want. But here is the start if you care to try it out.
