I understand what you mean. It sure makes it easier to add small UI features that enhance for the average developer...
Maybe I'm just bitter because I see it as a waste of Flash's capabilities overall. >> Of course even with a nice rich UI...I will always stick to my own >> development standards ;-) Good for you... that's an ideology that many new developers should pick up and not enough existing developers follow.

Of course even with a nice rich UI...I will always stick to my own development standards ;-) Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
