If you work on a PC I can highly recommend FlashDevelop.
It comes with a really nice AS3 Preloader preset. Coupled with the Flex
compiler you're straight into "flaless" Flash.
Btw my opinion, I reckon you really need to take the plunge into AS3,
asap.

Try:
public function myLeftHand(e:Event=null):void {

}
The myLeftHand method is being called when an event fires, so the event
must be passed in as a method parameter. "Event=null" allows the event
to be optional - so you could also call it without dispatching an event.

Hey Karl.
The issue you are facing is that the function on the comboListen object
(comboListen.change) steals your scope - so you don't have any access to
all the things you need: "picturesArry", "thumbHolder" etc.
So, you can either, forget creating an object to handle events and just

You're declaring it as a public variable, so if your other class has a

Fwiw, you can set Actionscript cue points that trigger when your flv reaches a
frame. That wouldn't increase flv file size.
This works irrespective of keyframes in the video file. However it has less
accuracy (+/- 500ms apparently) than a metadata cue point and associated
keyframe.

Karl, a function "returns" something if you include a line "return
value" at the end of the function...
For example, if you had a function that returned a random number below
100:

{
var myRandomNumberBelow100:Number = Math.random() * 100;
