I have used the debugger in Flex Builder 3 Professional happily on my MacPro
for a while. Recently I tried to profile our app and had some issues and now
everytime I try to just use the debugger it shows in the console [SWF]
I am using the SWFLoader to load a swf built for Flash Lite's VM (version?)
into a Flex window built to run in Flash 9+. The SWFs seem to load but
interacting with them is a little sketchy. In an HTML wrapper they work fine.
How do I force the SWFs to be loaded in a different version Flash VM
In Flex I am trying to show examples of SWFs that run on portable devices in
FlashLite. I am able to open them in a Flex control (HBox, TitleWindow etc.)
and pass necessariy parameters but some images that are normally off the
'canvas' or 'stage' for the flash SWFs are showing up outside the
file that initiated the upload or download to access the uploaded or
downloaded file or the file's location on the user's disk.

Each state has a collection of cities. State and city have a boolean
