Hello world,
I want some feedback in this project (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/)
This project was on old flash site build on AS2 (without classes and a lot of timeline animation).
The client was looking for an evolution of the site but without changing the appearance and feeling of the site. All the evolution was more in functionalities like:
- Integration of google maps
- Permalinks (SWFAddress - Requested by client at the end of the project)
- Partners and news
- And most importantly a backoffice to be able to update most of the content (backoffice just for the new sections, I left the old sections with static content as they was).
First I start cleaning all the code, so at the end I delete everything and I started from zero... I have continue in AS2 because I WAS scared of AS3.
Then I create the backoffice to be able to modify the next sections:
-@home page, the featured news (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/).
-Les bonnes adresses (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/#?view=intineraire)
-Les marches de la lozere (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/#?view=marches)
-Itineraires gourmandes (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/#?view=intineraire)
-Actualites (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/#?view=actualites)
-Partenaires (http://hiderefer.com/?http://www.plaisirsauthentiques.com/#?view=partenaires)
Once that all the information was stored correctly in the data base, I started building all the flash applications.
All the applications that use one of the 2 maps uses the GMap api and the mootools framework.
Almost when I was at the point of finishing the project the client decided to add the SWFAddress functions so I almost had an heart attack cause there was a lot of things to handle like all the mootools request, retrieve the desired information from server, doing the animations, etc....so with some hacks and magic to the application I was able to implement swfaddress.
At the end i'm kind of happy cause I learned a lot and because I saw a lot of limitations of AS2. But at the same time I feel like it's not a very fluid application and there are still some bugs.
