Hi,
i can imagine at least two issues (had to deal with them myself after some
conversions), one is for/while loops that have become endless loops due to a
default initialisation or datatype that has changed from 8 to 9.
2, the handling of paths, which seems to have changed only a little bit, eg
._url returns forwards instead of backslashes (only local though).
This isnt probably it, but you could try to inspect one of the clips for
lusses etc.

I have an app that was created using Flash 8 consisting of a main swf that
loads in number of subordinate swfs, all published for version 7
compatability using AS 2.

The subordinate swfs contain a collection of 8 frame movie clips, each a
stop frame - no other code.  The main swf changes the colour and visibility
of the clips inside the subordinates according to user input and advances
each clip in turn by one frame when the user clicks another button.  All
pretty standard stuff.

Everything worked fine with version 7 and 8 players but now we have
version 9 and and now some of the subordinate swfs fail to load (no
onLoadError fired, just hanging) and some of the others freeze the whole app
when accessed.

I can't immediately spot any similarities between the offending swfs or
differences (other than graphical) from other swfs that are working fine.

The freezing can (in some cases) be narrowed down to particular clips
inside the subordinates, remove them and the swfs work fine, but there does
not seem to be any common element among them they are all quite basic
graphics - single colour, no outline.

Has anyone found anything in particular which upsets the version 9 player
that I can look out for (and remove) or is there any way that I can
re-publish the swfs in a way that will not offend the version 9 player or am
i going to have to painstakingly go through all the swfs and re draw the
graphics, hoping that whatever is throwing the spanner into the works gets
omitted this time.

Thanks

Kev
