Hi,
You would need to use JavaScript in the browser to respond to the
"onFocus" and "onBlur" events and connect these up to Flash using the
"ExternalInterface" method. Your JavaScript would essentially be
calling methods in Flash. Remember if you do this, you will need to
allow JS<->Flash communication with the
<param name="/allowscriptaccess/" value="always" />
in your SWF embedding code.

Had a feeling Javascript would be a way.
Is there a JSFL out there that would do that? Flash Javascript?
Or would JSFL not be necessary? Or am I confusing the two?
Just curious.
I am looking to have my swf figure out if it's window is in focus and
if not, clear any listeners, timers and pause any animations.
Things that use system resources.
I have noticed that flash tends to run hard in the background and
slows my computer.
Makes the fan spin hard. With fairly light graphics and code.
Not sure if it is my code, but I am leaning towards not.
I have been being very careful to clear listeners and timers so far.

Hello all you glorious flash peoples,
I feel I am getting closer to all of you as each day passes. Here is
one for the truly gifted.
Is there any way to tell (from flash) if the current browser window
is on the top level or in the foreground top most application?
And here is where the gifted part comes in. Can it be done in AS2?
Your helps are always greatly appreciated o omnipotent Mailing list
(bow).
Thanks,
