So do you think it would be possible to take a fairly complex array, run
it through some function in AS2 that describes the document page by
page, send it to CF and out pops a pdf? Would it be possible to have
templates using the drawing API, and add data? I'm understanding that
CF could take

Are these timeline based swfs, or single frame, or movieclips within
movieclips? Or won't you know?
You could create an onEnterFrame event that continually checks the swf's
_currentframe compared to _totalframes. When they are equal, it has
reached the end.

When you load the movie you have to block the root, like this.

item._lockroot = true;

Yeah it is a movieClip in movieClip situation, which I tried of course using

Flash doesn't actuall support the CDATA tag. It sort
of does, but all 's and 's get replaced with lt;'s

When you stick it in a text field, it correctly
interprets the HTML entities, which leads to you
getting HTML tags where they shouldn't be.

Hi all,
I am wondering how can I manage to find the path to where a MC belongs?
