I'm trying to do something like this:

the doMyArrayFunction expects an Array object, so this throws an error. What

No, nodeValue is already a string. I fixed the problem by reading the file

I want to allow users to enter anything except carriage returns in my input

I've only just noticed the dispose() method of the BitmapData object. Is it
strictly necessary? That is: if I just let a BitmapData object get garbage
collected, will the memory fail to be released? And if not, why would we
need this method instead of plain old delete?

Is there any way to do it? (And yes, I know I'd be better off with an

Slightly complicated and not terribly important but annoying:

function Clarss(tParent:Clarss) {
if (tParent != undefined) {
pParent = tParent;
