On the loader complete event... The Œcontent¹ ._is_. The swf.

var foo:Object = loader.content;

What this looks like... Is that someone is saying that hitting a page like
foo.php could actually provide Flex with foo.swf. So... The url request
target would probably be ³foo.php.²

 I guess use Loader.loadBytes and type the resultant contents as a MovieClip?
 But that is guessing, I hasten to add.

 If it's going to an Air application, than it can write the bytes
 temporarily, load the Movie and delete the temporary file. I did that years
 ago with C# and Flash and it worked really well.

 Hi,
 
 Was just looking through some blogs on AMFPHP and came across a php
 snippet that showed:
 
 function getSwf()
 {
 return new ByteArray(file_get_contents(my.swf));
 }
 
 But no sample of what to do on the Flex side to turn it back into
 something useable.
 
 How would you convert that ByteArray of the swf file back to a
 MovieClip/SWFLoader/something displayable ??
 
 Thanks,
 Nik

I think it could be a subtly different context here, in that it's a
remoting call, and would return the swf typed as a bytearray, so you
wouldn't be using a urlrequest in this case.

ObjectUtil.toString(result) and see what it is. I'm curios to know too.
