Spark: A Flash to XML converter

Flash is getting increasingly popular with web designers. Seeing that Flash allows much more control over the layout than HTML, supports elaborate animations and can be edited with graphical tools to boot, this should not come as a great surprise.

Spark is aimed at supporting dynamic Flash generation in a primarily XML based server side environment by providing

• A parser to convert SWF (the binary Flash format) to XML conforming to a specialized DTD.
• A writer to convert XML conforming to this DTD back into SWF.

The main project page is at http://developer.berlios.de/projects/spark-xml/. Other important project links are:

• Spark CVS repository
• The Spark license
• Download of the latest Spark release:
  • Source code archive: spark-src.zip
  • Precompiled jar: spark.jar
  • Documentation archive: spark-docs.zip
• Mailing lists
• Bug tracker
