There is no String#replace in Flash. If you are finding one, somebody
has put one there for you. The typical kludge is:
String.prototype.replace = function (from, to) {
return this.split(from).join(to);
}
Which is not accurate, since it obviously won't work with RegEx's.
But then, there are no RegEx's in Flash either.
But it looks to me like what you really want is `encodeURIComponent`,
which we make sure is available on all runtimes:
lzx> encodeURIComponent(LzCanvas.versionInfoString())
'URL%3A%20http%3A%2F%2Fdueling%2Dbanjos%2Elocal%3A8080%2Fdingdong

Its the same string both times, but maybe this will help:
_this code:_
var env_info = LzCanvas.versionInfoString();
Debug.write( env_info );
env_info = env_info.replace("\n", "; ");
env_info = env_info.replace("<![CDATA[&]]>", "; ");
var test = "test";
Debug.write('test: ', test.replace);

So is there added/missing functionality somewhere (this is a big
project), or is String being manipulated? Can String be manipulated?

Is it possible you're not passing a string in those cases, but some
other object?
Is it reproducible? Maybe put a Debug.write(typeof(yourstringvar)) to
make sure.

Hi all,
When calling <some string>.replace("x", "y"), its sometimes works,
and
sometimes I get "call to undefined method 'replace'".
There are also indicators that others have run into this problem:
checks if
replace exists, comments that "String.replace is needed!"
Is this method disabled? Or how would one enable/disable it?
