Hi Tim,
Yup, you got it right... it works doesn't
it? :)
Ya from now on, your ant build script will
basically copy all your files to the N:\Daemon\JRun\servers\test\flex\ folder,
so you can run the app and test it.

The only thing you need is to
use the getURL method. You can use it to communicate with a _javascript_ function
back on your JSP page... like so:
