Luke,
Yes, that is the goal of the project, however you
can't really make a runtime actionscript parser :). I
tried, very very very difficult. So what I did was
just use MTASC to handle the ui events and so forth.
Looks something like this...
var listener = new Object();
var form = new Object();
var params = new Object();
var handler = new Object();
listener.onLoad = function(success){
Global.getWindow("client").focusManager.setFocus(form.name);
}
listener.toggle = function(success){
Global.route(Application.access,"showWindow:client");
}
listener.close = function(e){
Global.destroyWindow("client");
}
UIManager.render("/client.xml",system,listener,form,params);
