I think because if the file exists, you will have to wait till the file has loaded completely before you know about it.

It stands to reason that if onLoad fires with success==false no file was loaded anyway, so i don't see why you'd need a separate handler for wether success is false NOW or success is false a little later. onLoad(success){ if(success){ //handle file load }else{ //handle error } } I don't see the downside to this approach. Then again, i'm tired and angry, so i might miss something. - A Yotam Laufer wrote: > If onload fires immediately with success==false then you know that there's > no file, so why don't you wait for a reasonable interval and then if it's > not fired than assume the file exists. not the best of solutions but should > work. > > Yotam _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
