For developing in Adobe Flash you can trace() your results in the output window of the authoring environment. Without the authoring environment you can trace through javascript or to a dynamic textfield. Still it would be much easier to keep those same traces that you have set in your Actionscript code.

This can be achieved by downloading and installing two things (or three if you don’t have the browser Firefox):

1. Download and install the Adobe Flash debug player at http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html. This will give you error warnings of all Flash related errors.

2. Download and install the Firefox add-on called Flashtracer at http://www.sephiroth.it/firefox/flashtracer/ and adjust the settings so the debugger errors/traces will appear in the sidebar of your browser.

Are you are reinstalling your computer or has it crashed and you can’t retrieve your old bookmarks. Then you can save your bookmarks (favorites) for once and for all? The Firefox add-on “Xmarks” is your tool to do this.

You can even make different bookmark-lists for different workspaces (home, office, etc). This tool even syncs your newly added bookmarks.

You can find this add-on on http://www.xmarks.com/ or on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2410

What do you have to do to extract a dvd to your harddrive.

1. If you have a protected DVD you can download dvddecrypter and install it.
2. Decypt your DVD to your local harddisk.
3. Download the program called Staxrip and install, it’s a opensource tool.
4. Take the .vob files from the dvd directory and convert them to .avi files(Xvid codec).
5. if you start the conversion the program will ask to install some extra conversion tools when you select to convert, these are all for the good purpose. I usually convert my movies to Xvid-codec-avi. This is widely used, so no problem for everyone to play on there pc.

Good luck and no converting of any illigal stuff…
