The title says it all :) date.getTime() is supposed to return an integer. Using Flash MX2004 or Flash 8 IDE, when you compile your application for Flash Player 7 or 6 (maybe lower, I didn't test), and then view your SWF on a Mac (which has player 7 or 8), it returns a float.
You can see it yourself here. One line swf that just shows you the result of date.getTime(); http://www.rootburn.com/files/timeTest8.swf - compiled for FP8. Integer on PC and Mac http://www.rootburn.com/files/timeTest7.swf - compiled for FP7. Integer on PC. Returns float on Mac http://www.rootburn.com/files/timeTest6.swf - compiled for FP6. Integer on PC. Returns float on Mac This seems to be realted to the problem that is referenced here: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/htdig/flashcoders/2002-March/024660.html My login procedure has been using the result of date.getTime() as an argument, and has been failing on Macs when I compiled my app for FP7, and I couldn't figure out why. My server was choking on the float when it was expecting an integer. best, - rajat -- Rajat Paharia [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bunchball.com http://www.rootburn.com _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
