RE: FLASH: FLASH BUG?!

[Kalin Mintchev]

thanks again for the reply,

well i do know how to use "other scripting langauges", that's way i'm

using WebCatalog now. like i wrote it does the same like the other ones

and is a lot easer and faster to write, you don't need to spend hours

debuging.

i don't think i reach the 200,000 action limit eather.

and i don't think it is a WebCatalog issue. the thing does it's job - it

writes the .txt file that suposed to -  every single search. 

i thiink is a flash issue. somehow...

lets say i personaly write the .txt file - not WebCatalog -  every time in

the same directory where the movie and the html file that's contaning the

flash movie are located. 

how can i be sure that the movie's not going to stop to "load the

variables" after certain time?


thanks to Chad Kraeft for the comments
