Using Loki From Flash

leave a comment

loki_from_flash Recently a friend of mine asked if it was possible to use the Loki Javascript API from within Flash. Loki is a location aware plugin which once installed allows a user to find their location using available WiFi signals. I created an example which uses the javascript API to show you you’re location on a flash based Yahoo! map. The source code is available in a zip and you can view the working example here. I’ll probably play around with this a bit more so that the javascript gets inserted dynamically from Flash and I’d also like to have some Flex examples.
