Re: [Flashcoders] Slow-Running Script alert
I've had this happen when styling a bunch of components all at one time. Usually it's some kind of loop, since you need to be stuck in the same code for 15 secs, as other have mentioned. In my case, I was calling an init function within a series of loaded movies. Each movies init styled its components. The outer loop going through the clip array and calling init() was taking more than 15 secs to finish and I'd get that dialog. Now I call init as each clip is loaded, and not all at once. Works - except it is noticeably slower.

Re: [Flashcoders] Slow-Running Script alert
using flasm you can do that with all movies from player 7 upwards, but from a user experience point of view its not nice On 5/10/07, Jobe Makar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, If a script takes more than 15 seconds to complete then you get that error.

RE: [Flashcoders] Slow-Running Script alert
I had an issue like this the other day and I KNEW it wasn't related to a loop error, actually it is related to a bug with the MovieClipLoader object and loading large files.

Re: [Flashcoders] Slow-Running Script alert
Let's see some code. It sounds like you might be stuck in a loop where you are waiting for the value of something to change before proceeding. If it takes too long for that value to change and you continue to loop you will timeout your script and get the alert. You might be better off using event handling and dispatch an event when you're ready to proceed this way Flash isn't tied up in a loop.
