I looked when Google Talk first came out and discovered that it was
impossible without a proxy (Java applet on the client, or an intermediary
server) because of the TLS authentication that Google Talk required (and
that Flash doesn't support):
You'd get a preview without uploading, by accessing the file directly from
the user's harddrive.
However, this is not supported for security reasons. Basically, the answer
is NO, with standard flash, you cannot read files from the user's harddrive
without uploading them to the server first and
Bump for any ideas?

You're better off wrapping it in an MC and assigning a custom class to that.

Oh, and the reason setting orientation to landscape doesn't work is
because orientation is read-only.

qa[0] = new Object();
Given the way you wote the questions class, then:

import questions;
class Puzzle {
private var QA:questions;
function Puzzle() {
QA = new questions();
trace(QA.qa[0][q])

Thanks Jason. I figured it out. I was getting tripped up by the fact

Actually, using a Getter() method is often preferable too - just depends
on how you want to do it.

You'll have to do it with .ASP then. I'm not up on ASP myself, I have a
