No it's not possible, why do you want to do it anyway? XML is just a way of storing data that both humans and computers can understand. For example:

<item>
<item price = "1,05">
<item color = "blue">
</item>

You can then parse this into your program to use. The most useful way to use this I think is to find a daily updated XML file (like this one) and then have your program download the latest one each time it runs. That way you don't have to update the information yourself.

That's pretty advanced stuff. What kind of site is this anyway? Are you sure it says XML code? In any case, you need to read the image data, convert it to Base64 (I've never heard of it myself but apparently it is used to store complex data in XML) and then store each and every pixel in its own XML tag. I have no idea how the site would be able to interpret your code as XML tags have no intrinsic function. They are just words that are meaningful to the person managing the data and the program they are using. Maybe email the owner or read an FAQ or something because this is really convoluted. Both HTML and Flash have bitmap support. In HTML you just use the src parameter and in Flash you just import it. Creating a program that reads the data and then stores it on the site is not that difficult.

What do you mean by "official?" Classic? Professional?

Because there are like, a bajillion arcade games out there.

Here's *a* list, I dunno if it's what you want, though:

RE: Small Questions

How does Windows (Windows 7 (64 bits)) determine if a program is responsive or not?

Example... (this is not my situation but just an image I pulled of Google)

Could be anything that makes a program stop working, I guess.

So either memory, or an unsupported function that fucked up, or any number of things. Anyone's guess, really. Windows is buggy as hell.

Or whenever you minimize a full screen application. Seriously, they need to fix that because that is a huge oversight IMO. "Oh, I'm not GOOD enough for ALL of your attention?? I'll just stop working!"
