RE: [Flashcoders] A Question that I've been asking for years!!

An interface is used to control that the classes who extends the interface mandatory have at least the same methods and properties. So when you work in a team of programmers/developers everyone using/extending this class MUST confirm all these methods and properties. HTH Cor ;-)

Hi, interfaces are pretty simple in reality and they are everywhere. Imagine every wall outlet looked different, and not only different, but that in order to use them, you had to remove the outlet first, take a look at the wiring and then bolt it back on with you finally knowing how to use it.

The app is designed for people only in the uk - it will show the current time and the amount of time remaining until the countdown is finished so it will probably be worth giving the time based on the server time and setting the time in flash based on that the original question was about the best

If it's specifically for a countdown, you can just ask your php guy to give you the number of seconds to the deadline (or milliseconds if you need it). Then just divide it up however you want. Make the class nice and clean and unrestricted. 2008/8/26 Hans Wichman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, isnt
