I am experimenting with the new AS3 flash questions and everything works as expected except that I cannot load external swf files using a xml file. I have a parent swf file that behaves well, except that this parent swf cannot load the external swf files. It works flawlessly on my own website (which even does not have a cross-domain.xml file in the root directory).

Is there a restriction in Maple T.A. that prevents loading xml files by a swf (and/or loading external swf's in general)?

We're are using Maple TA 8 at our university. I'm new to Maple TA and I would like to create an assigment with multiple choice questions about JavaScript and HTML. But I found the following problems when creating these MC questions:

1) Using < and > characters aren't allowed in the "Choices for the answers" fields. So I manually have to XML encode text containing these characters. Is there an easier way to do this? I would expect answers to be stored as plain...

Hi.

I would like some help with this. As so many others  i get this meassage "There were problems during the loading process. Your worksheet may be incomplete." when i treid to open my, almost done, Math assignment.

so i looked the problem op and found that i could retrive alot of my work by changing some lines of code. I could not find the problem.

Any help?

ps. I realy realy realy hope you guys can help me!

Another feature added to Maple 15 partially in response to the MaplePrimes forums is the new/improved ?HTTP package.  It provides one-step commands for fetching data from the web: much simpler than using the ?Sockets package directly. In most cases, the command ?HTTP,Get is what you would use:

 (s, page, h) := HTTP:-Get("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Crayola_crayon_colors"):

The above fetches the HTML source of a page from Wikipedia and stores it as a string 'page'. The other two outputs are 's', and integer HTTP status code and 'h' a table of the headers returned in the HTTP response from the server.  Compare this to the amount of code needed to fetch data in my Baby Names application for Maple 12, for example.

Not sure how to do this.  What I want to do is use maple to grab an RSS feed from the internet and use maple to put it into a readable format

In particular from this website http://tomorrowsgaspricetoday.com/city/Hamilton/ and getting the rss feed xml style webpage from here http://tomorrowsgaspricetoday.com/rssfeed.php?city=16

I am trying to create a certain visual effect in a Maple document / worksheet.

Basically, I have a small table with colored cells that I want to embed in a worksheet with an altogether different fill color. This sounds simple enough, but it appears that Maple's tables don't allow this.

In a series of posts now imported to the Maplesoft blog (starting here), I have been talking about pseudo-random number sequences, but since part of what kicked off this series was a paper on true random number generation (with LASERS!) I thought I would share some routines I wrote that alllow you to use the two main true random number sources available on the web (neither using lasers, sadly).

A long while ago, I wrote a couple posts (part1 and part2) about mining data from the US SSA website.  I subsequently adapted the code from those blog posts into a visual application with sliders and interactive plots.  If you have played with the new ?MapleCloud functionality in Maple 14, you may have seen it posted already.
