RE: [flexcoders] Intriguing AMFPHP sample
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. -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rick Winscot Sent: 22 August 2008 07:45 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Intriguing AMFPHP sample On the loader complete event...

Re: [flexcoders] Intriguing AMFPHP sample
ObjectUtil.toString(result) and see what it is. I'm curios to know too.
