I have done a search on this and I think I actually came away more confused. We are looking for a solution where we supply a card swiper for a mobile device. Just a swiper, we do not need a gateway solution.
We want to be able to have someone swipe a card and then have the card information auto-populate in an HTML form.
Simple question: Is this possible and if so, any suggestions on how to go about it? I cant seem to find much out there on this.
Thanks,
Pretty sure you need a activex or similar installed in the brower, to get hold of the PC's comport. I used Silverlight for the same reason. Wanted the input from a barcode scanner to act different that the operators input.
Hope it helps :)

I need to create 'slidable panel' control for WP8. Very similar to the one that was used by the old twitter application on ipad (landscape UI).
It's pretty hard to describe in words, here is a link to an article describing how to implement it on ios:
https://www.cocoacontrols.com/posts/how-to-build-the-twitter-ipad-user-experience
Sorry, i can't post image to give you a quick overview (stackoverflow reputation...) you will find some in the article above.
As you can see it's basically a stack of 'views' that can overlaps, and you can slide them around.
Is there any third party control similar to this for Windows Phone
8.x?
If not could you provide some guidance on how you would implement it?
Maybe it's not the good way to do it on WP, in this case what's the WP way to do this?
PS: i am new to WP development, ios/android background.
Thx.
I know that it is not exactly what you are looking for but this widget can be a pretty good base for your control.
This is about kiosk contents(Full-Screen).
I'm trying to input some texts in the 'AIR popup-window'(facebook login)
with virtual keyboard(as3.0).
I know the 'HTML loader class' can be a solution, But I think this is different case.
How can I make it? I really need your ideas!
Thank you for read this, and sorry my bad English.
With respect you should really do a thorough search on google or even stackoverflow, as this question has been posed already at least once. Anyway here is a question on the same issue some one answered here:
Flash APIs for Android Platform
Basically it involves a new method in InteractiveObjects that manually invokes the system soft keyboard. Pretty basic stuff. Hope it helps! :)
My app will look like this: two people enter a chat or something else in a page and have a skype name or Gtalk. Is it possible to make an anchor to call a voice client from the web page? Is there a flash fallback for this?
I know the skype: prefix that actually doesn't work for me in Ubuntu, but should work for Windows users.
I primarily target PCs & macs, but supporting mobile platforms with a solution will be nice.
For Downvoters: any comments why you do this? Please bother to explain me the obvious thing that I don't know and make this question.
Your question is much too complex. Instead of answering it, which would take several pages, the person might as well write the application him/herself and sell it.
You have to divide your problem in tiny bits, and have a question for each one.
You could at least start with looking at gTalk API and Skype API to see what you need yourself.
I am trying to build an application for smart phone devices. I have searched a lot over the web and I found some good toolkits, These are the toolkits I am considering to work with. Jquery Mobile and webapp-net.
The only problem is I need to kknow about the technical differences in html of these two toolkits. so if you please help me.
BTW this is my second account here, with my previous account i cant not ask any questions here, I want to know what are the reasons to close someones account, I am only here because I need help, and I dont want to waste anyones time. I come here to ask a question and then, some one comes and just does something to my account and I dont even know why they do that. So what is the point of this website if you close some ones account???
When consider Jquery Mobile and webapp-net, JM is elder and is coming from rich and stable family, that never ment webapp is poor, but you have much recourses and help from the net if u start ur work with JM.
As I was working on this project for a friend of mine who is terrified of changing from HTML to flash, I realized that maybe there could be a bridge between them. So I started working on a flash project that would grab the HTML from his page and parse it to display it in flash. Although I am sure there are resources available for this already, I figured that the experts on SO might be willing to suffer through the logic of one user trying to develop this script.
So basically, I am not asking for an answer, I am asking for some step-by-step direction that could be posted so other people could see the logic behind breaking down this project. I think it would be really useful (not just for me, but for anyone wanting to learn more about objects and oop).
So, much like the thread between primarily Senocular and Rampage, this would be a thread where I would be the student asking the questions in a logical step-by-step manner and someone else (or someones else) could provide guidance.
Let me know if you are interested and I can start by posting what I have already written. We can go from there and I am sure it will prove insightful to anyone who reads it. If no one is interested, or no one has the time or inclination, no problem.
Best wishes,
Jase
Who in their right mind would change from html to flash for displaying a simple website? I don't see the logic behind it, it's more like you are trying too hard. Flash has its function in the web, as well as html does. If it's just for simple displaying, using flash is just the wrong way and won't make your website any better but worse because its loading time will be too long.
Goole Search retrieved these:
HTMLWrapper
Groe.org HTMLParser
There is an article about the 1st on *drawlogic. I think the seconds' home is on sourceforge here.
Thing is, browsers already do a fine job at parsing html code. Having the flash player parse html files not only does away with any accessibility advantage your markup can offer but it also feels like reinventing the wheel. If you need to display html content, leave it to the browser.
Slightly offtopic - Flashpaper can convert most HTML pages into swf format.
Given properly "disciplined" HTML, you can use the XML parser in the player for the basic parsing. Are you really talking about writing an HTML renderer in Flash though? Or just being able to pull information from HTML dynamically?
