my first Flash Facebook app

Februar 1st, 2010 • facebook, flash

Recently I created a facebook app called “ImageViewer”.

The App shows your Photos in fullscreen, and you can also browse through your friend’s photos.

Here are some coding hints:

you can’t use fbml (doesn’t allow flash fullscreen)
you need some php params provided in the iframe url (session secret…)
using “WebSession” for the Facebook authentication worked fine for me
I couldn’t find a way to test the app locally. So I highly recommend a FTP ant task for a good workflow
Working with one big model class (handling the whole facebook data) worked fine.
It wasn’t as anoying as I thought ;)

This is a really nice app, but there seems to be a problem with the gallery-listing. It only shows up to 12 galleries, I can’t scroll down if there are more.

You’re right. I didn’t implement a scrolling feature. I thought noone would have more than 12 galleries ;)

I try to do it this week. It’s just a question of time.

Thanks for the feedback!
