This is probably down to the JavaScript engine used. I know numerous bugs (with the Math engine being the worse) with the IE browser that just dissappear with the FireFox browser.
Lee -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 June 2006 14:50 To: [email protected] Subject: [Flashcoders] externalInterface Issue Are there any known limitations when using the ExternalInterface to send large amounts of data. I set up this example and I'm not liking the result. 1. Code in flash import flash.external.ExternalInterface; ExternalInterface.call("receiveData",massiveString); 2. Code on htmlpage function receiveData(args) { alert("result: " + args.colorData.length); return args.colorData.length; } Firefox and Internet Explorer obviously treats this differently. While Firefox communicates with flash almost instantly and sends the string with minimal delay Internet Explorer times out when the string gets to big. So my question is How come the two browsers handles this differently and how could i work around it so that i can send that massive string.
