that said, here there is my ActionScript code to highlight the text inside a PDF page. It works with Flash 8 or previous ONLY because the new Flash 9 has a different AVM interpreter (AVM2) and many things have changed. Please note: - ``txt`` is the text to search and highlight inside your page - ``mc`` points to _root.text that's where I was keeping my swf/pdf page you should change that so it references yours. Here is the code: function hltext ( txt ) { var mc = _root.text; var my_snap:TextSnapshot = mc.getTextSnapshot(); var start_pos:Number = 0; start_pos = my_snap.findText ( start_pos, txt, false ); while ( start_pos > 0 ) { trace ( start_pos ); my_snap.setSelected( start_pos, start_pos + txt.length, true ); start_pos += txt.length; start_pos = my_snap.findText ( start_pos, txt, false ); } }

Embedding the SWF into a html page

swfdump --html flashfile.swf

from django.conf.urls.defaults import * from django.views.generic import list_detail from mysite.books.models import Publisher publisher_info = { 'queryset': Publisher.objects.all(), 'template_name': 'publisher_list_page.html', } urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^publishers/$', list_detail.object_list, publisher_info) )

That’s really all there is to it. All the cool features of generic views come from changing the “info” dictionary passed to the generic view.

You might have noticed that sample publisher list template stores all the books in a variable named object_list.
