Next time you are in your mxml class, try and type the first few letters of the component you want from a third party swc. Then control + space for code complete. Not only does it code complete the mxml node, it will also automatically add the xmlns for you. That is when I'm getting the url based namespace.
Oh well, just a bit more typing.

In fact it won't code complete for me until I put it up there. After that it works perfectly fine. Don't know if that helps.

Any time I use code complete on one of their controls in my mxml file is adds the xmlns like so: xmlns:comps=http://www.theirco.com/2007/blah/blah I've been having my developers change this to the use the swc like so: Xmlns:comps="org.theirco.blah.blah.*" Is there a best practice on this? I've always taken the route of why specify a lookup to the web when you have everything you need local. But it is a pain that every time we use code complete on one of their components it adds a url to the namespace rather than just use the swc in the project.
