Using Zoom to search swf content and display results in Flash

[davelees]

I have been using Zoom for a few months now and its awesome!

I have a bit of a challenge...I do a lot of development in Flash and what I would like to do is try to utilise Zoom to search swfs and display the search results within Flash. IS there any way to do this?

Thanks

You will want to take a look at our Flash support page:

Short answers:

Yes, you can index and search SWF files.

Displaying results within Flash requires a fair amount of familiarity with ActionScript and understanding how to call a CGI and embed its response within the Flash. See this thread (http://wrensoft.com/forum/showthread.php?t=279).

You can create a search form in Flash. Instructions for this is given in the FAQ above.
