I can't lend you any source, but my tip would be to setup a 'dummy' page or pages and then add getURL("dummy_page.php?section=5") or getURL("dummy_page5.html") into your flash, then the client's web server logs will show the requests and they can do whatever they want using standard log m

Hi, i doubt this is possible. Try separating the "sub pages" into separate swfs, and load them on-demand. You can then look at your server logs and see which swfs have been accessed. On 10/11/06, Sascha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, My Client asked for a feature with that they can check how ma

With BitmapData, you can build a BitmapData of your picture, for exemple 1000x600 witch will stay in memory, and will not be displayed. After that, you create another BitmapData witch is only 500x300 for exemple, the size you need for display. Then you draw the first BitmapData in the second w

Hi Jason, I'd pretty much echo Ramon - doesn't sound like a good case for cacheAsBitmap. To give a slightly more concrete cacheAsBitmap example... We have a Flash-driven flip book that can (potentially) show any Flash movie on any page. Flipping the pages is a quite animation-intensive process.

If you're scrolling pictures, you don't really need to cache as bitmap. It would be best to use it when there's a lot of vector data that bogs the system down when animating. One thing you could do to optimize things is whent he pictures go offscreen, unload them. On 10/11/06, Jason Ross <[EMAI

The fact that you can't gotoAndPlay past 34.. but can go to 16 could indicate that indeed it isn't loaded or somehting.. but you've tested that... What happens when you just play the mc... en set a framecounter in it or something for display... does it go beyond 34? Kind regards, Dennis ---
