If you have a lot of clips, you should put them in an array. If

so rapidly. Furthermore, by using a serif font you're probably
doubling or tripling the number of vectors, so try the simplest,
non-serif, mono-stroke
Of the solutions that have been suggested, I think the most likely
one is case-sensitivity. Make sure to maintain the same case in
naming and calling the files.
It doesn't seem that loading time is an issue. If you're using the
MovieClipLoader you're probably already using onLoadInit to

The default Flash IDE palette is 216 colors, which constitute the
web-safe palette. If it's of any help, the web-safe palette assigns
R, G, and B each one of the following decimal values:
0
51
102
153
204
255
Convert each value to hexadecimal and create all the possible
combinations of three
Ok, this looked like a fun project so I wrote code to construct an
array of all web-safe colors:
hexColors = new Array(00, 33, 66, 99, CC, FF);
webSafePalette = new Array();
// length of webSafePalette will be length of hexColors cubed:
for (i = 0; i Math.pow(hexColors.length, 3); i++) {
Can you test it outside of Director, to start isolating whether it's
a Flash, Director, or the combination of the two? Also, are you
testing on multiple machines, in order to isolate a potential
hardware or driver problem?

Make sure, however, that the targeted frame is loaded before calling
it within Flash -- otherwise, the function will fail and nothing will happen.

I'm trying to set up a local apache server for testing PHP on my
laptop. This is all new territory for me and although I've followed
instructions on several sites, it won't work. I do have TCP/IP
working. During setup and when trying to start the server, I get this
DOS message:
