Hank, Sorry if my instructions werent clear... Hitting the debug icon in Flex Builder will start the debugging session and launch the debug URL specified for the project which can be changed by going into the Run -> Debug -> Other (Debug Configuration)
If you change that URL to something which doesnt launch any flash content (I use www.google.com) then the Flex Builder will wait for a period of time for a flash component to start in debug mode and connect back to Flex Builder. Meanwhile you can do whatever you need to do in the browser. When I apply the changes in the debug Configuration dialog I apply the changes then hit the Debug icon on the toolbar. When you hit 'Debug' on the dialog was the correct URL launched? -Louis --- In [email protected], "hank williams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hmm... > > Though somewhat confused by your directions, I tried to follow them, > and it didnt work. > > so some questions: > > 1. > >In FlexBuilder change your projects debug URL to something that > > doenst immediately launch Flash. > > What does this mean?
