Hi Guys,

Thanks for both responses. Though I still have a hard time thinking about what "over a network" would mean for a "local connection", Jesse's explaination that the underscore matters for cross domain access on a particular box gives me something that my bear-little brain can hold onto.

Scratching head till eternity (it seems sometimes like)

I thought it used shared memory, in which case it would work perfectly over a network, since all the movies in question would be running on the same box.

LocalConnection writes a file to your HD; that's how other SWF's can read it (just like SharedObject). So, it doesn't work over a network. It will work across domains, however, if you prefix it with underscores.

Hello Gents,

I have to say that John's side comment is interesting to me.

>"- LC does not work over a network - "

What does it mean to say that a LC works or doesn't work over a network? Isn't it a "local" connection?

I get the sense that I'm missing something important here.

Thanks!

-Cort
