You can create your own variable based on:
System.capabilities.playerType
It will be "External" when in the IDE. Other values include "ActiveX",
"PlugIn" and one other which I can't remember.
So something like:
if (System.capabilities.playerType == "External") {
path = "../";
} else {
path = "../../../../../../../";
}

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] relative path issue
yes, Manuel, ./dirB/"./dirB/child.xml" works but it prevents any
relocation of files without code update. :(
Can't we imagine a kind of environment variable returning swf's
path? A kind of ?
