Hi - I am developing my first apps in OL - I do have a few questions - Here goes : 1. How do I compile using the Command line compiler ? There doesn't seem to be anything in the manuals for it. In particular I am developing using the Laszlo Explorer - I copy my code into an example window and press Update - the cool thing about it is that i can see my results without needing to type a large command line, and I get semi-meaningful responses back from the XML parser or Tomcat if I mess up. I understand that some of my current coding issues are because I am not producing a SWF 8 output(I seem to recall that by default the output is flash 7). Can I force flash 8 through explorer, or do I have to do that through command line (or can i do both?) 2. I was looking for a list of pragma 'tags' - I think that some of my code will use pass through flash code to do interesting things like get pixel etc - I take it that I just do that with a #pragma passthrough=true directive - but what scope does that run at? Does it need to effect a whole procedure (i think it would) or does it merely affect a method. If i create a method that requires a parameter, can I use that parameter in a pass through method? 3. I was planning on adding my Open Laszlo to a Dot Net Nuke Portal - as I thought it fits nicely with SOAP and databinding - I was even thinking of writing a charting control with it - however I was wondering how to handle flash parameters - In the bigger scheme of things the DNN portal uses server side code to store state etc - so the OL COntent could become aware of things like module ID, user ID etc if they were pasted into the code for the OL object (perhaps during the rendering of the OL object). How is that handled via OL? I hope these questions are too verbose - I have tried reading the manuals but I can't seem to find the information. cheers! Mike
