Thanks Paul and Haykel. That works (it removes the child from the display), but one curious thing remains: When I uic.addChild then uic.numChildren increments by 1. But when call this.owner.removeChild(this) then uic.numChildren does not decrement by 1. (uic is my UIComponent to which I'm add

A few more bits of information to add: This warning starts being generated immediately after the 'Adobe Flash Player Settings' box is closed (once the user selects 'Allow' OR 'Deny') for microphone / camera access. The warning is written continuously and indefinitely (or at least, until Flash Tr

The pyamf.org (that has already been linked to) is great. An alternative (if you dont need the unserialized data server side) is to use byteArray. I pasted below a very scrappy example of how to get this working using Google App Engine (in python). Incidentally, the same GAE had a pyamf example i

Wow! The penchant for tangets here is staggering. @Tom Chiverton - there a few scenarios where someone would be wise to ask for a frame rate above 30 fps (but probably not none) - but that does not mean that information on how browsers react to Flash apps asking for frame rates >30 FPS is usel

2009-06-05 Thread tom93438
Just a shot in the dark here... I could be completely wrong, I dont use closures much in AS. Does AS3 have block scope? (I suspect not). If not, then you're recycling the variable 'input' each time you loop. So each time you add a new event listener to 'input', you're adding it to all your Tex
