Hey Guys,
I've started a new flex mailing list for us Aussies!
This not an effort to move Australian developers away from using FlexCoders,
rather it may be useful for Aussie developers to post messages that may not
be suitable for the international list.
Anyway the details.

To quote the first line of the web page you reference: "In more precise
terms, polymorphism (object-oriented programming theory) is the ability
of objects belonging to different types to respond to method calls of
methods of the same name, each one according to an appropriate
type-specific beha
It's "Wingdings" on my machine... And works well.
Try to embed it into some textfield on the stage and then trace font
name.
Also, you can check for usual mistakes: missed semicolon (;-), not applied
TextFormat etc.

VP6 is a 'lossy' codec, which means it degrades the image quality of the
