Well, if you are in "no-source-code hell", then you have to hack your way out.
If you know the internal structure of the loaded SWF, you can try to find the place the loadVars is done and try to grab a "load" event on it, or set a timer and check to see if the loadVars is complete. After that, you can then pass the variables to the loaded SWF and try to get it to render. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "cazzaran" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a banner that I load into my Image tag, and this banner goes > out to the server it came from to request a TXT file to load up some > variables. > > The problem is that I want to be able to use as much client side as > possible.
