The Flexible Configuration Options of Parsley
One of the nice design decisions taken by Jens Halm when he created the Parsley Application Framework was to separate the configuration mechanism from the core of the framework, so different forms of configuration can be used as required. This...Adobe Beginner Classes catch up

我想之前有看過iPad發表會的都會發覺, 瀏覽網頁時總是東缺一塊西缺一塊, 其實它跟iPhone一樣都是不支援Flash，當然兩者用的是同一套OS。 Apple是如此描述Flash：能夠跨平台及跨瀏覽器且立即部署豐富的網站內容標準。 可是這樣的遺漏卻發生在iPhone及iPad，當Steve Jobs正眉飛色舞的展示iPad如何炫麗的瀏覽網頁時卻發現原本應該秀出Flash內容的地方成為一處空白。 為什麼？"因為Apple不想要它在這兒",Adrian Ludwig,Flash platform的Group Manager如此說。 這是真的嗎？ "這不是錢或者是技術的因素，在其他相似的裝置上我們已經成功讓Flash在上面跑，而且免費授權給製造商"。Ludwig描述著。 Apple目前的應用程式商店適用於iPhone當然也包括iPad，而防止其他類似的免費應用程式經由Flash進來打亂其佈局，當然它的app無法跨平台，而這是Flash所能做到的。 目前有個變通方式是會有個轉檔工具把Flash轉成iPhone app的格式，不過Apple畢竟還是有權利對這樣的應用程式是否上架做決定。 而針對這樣的變局，Apple也併購了一家專做線上行動廣告的公司，想要取代原本Flash在這塊市場上的應用。不過Apple在iPad上的策略有點在砸自己的腳，畢竟使用者可以忍受iPhone無法秀Flash，但在可以順暢的瀏覽網頁為主軸的iPad上，如果要在有85%的網站上都使用Flash的情況下宣稱自己是對網站友善，這就有些站不住腳。 除非等到Apple願意改變心意，短期內你還是會看到很多缺著Flash的網頁！ 引用於: http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local-beat/Why-Doesnt-the-iPad-Do-Flash-82967272.html...Materials for Acrobat for Healthcare eSeminar
