Hi Paul, We actually had the exact same setup in that we had an swf application we needed to continue using after browsers stopped supporting flash.
What we did for the time being (but works very well): create an AIR application that uses the flex HTML control to load your swfs like you did in the browser. Create a WindowedApplication (Flex) with just one control in it: <controls:HTML id="htmlControl" width="100%" height="100%" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off" /> On the creationComplete // Load your web application htmlControl.location = "https://app..."; In the end we did add the AIR updating functionality, but only for updating the AIR app (which rarely happens). The swfs are loaded / reloaded like the were in the browser. Cheers Paulus -- Sent from: http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/
