Thanks for the explanation, Tracy. I didn't really understand what this IFrame stuff was doing until now. This is a really backwards hack. Does anyone know if Adobe is going to add an <mx:Browser> component or something similar? I am updating an old app that has hundreds of HTM files, but it needs to work as a standalone app as well as a web version, and it looks like I am going to have to convert all those files to little SWFs, because I can't use a browser to run my program.
