Unfortunately, that's not how it works. Flash doesn't know why it's hung and can't know why it's hung on a synchronous call to the system. Flash doesn't know that a modal dialog was opened. All Flash knows is it is waiting for the method it called to return a value. As far as Flash is concerned, the reason it isn't getting a response is that the code that is processing the return value is running too slowly. Again, this is due to the nature of synchronous vs asychronous calls. A bit of research on the web should yield some useful information on this topic. Again, it is not a bug because it works exactly how it is coded to work. _______________________________________________ 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
