Sephiroth, the author of the awsome AS2 editor SE|PY, wrote a free SharedObject viewer that I think will help out with your debugging.
http://www.sephiroth.it/python/solreader.php SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from local HD: C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\localhost SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from a Web server with a domain: C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\www.yourWebSite.com Also, be aware that unless you secify a domain location for the creation of the shared object then it will use the default namespace of the domain the SWF is on. There may be some new sandbox restrictions in Flex 2 that I do not know about that may be the cause of your problem. You can specify the location of where the SharedObject is created with the extra parameter: var mySO:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("soName", "/"); Also, you might want to check out this link: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00002665.html good luck --jason --- In [email protected], "wayneposner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If I trace it locally the shared object returns what it's supposed > to.
