Re: FLASH: FSCommand help

[Marc Hoffman, Poison Dart Frog Media]

I'm interested in your solution, however your code did not come through in 

my email (Eurora Pro). Can you paste it in some other way -- maybe as a 

quote or as a comment? Not sure what works, but it seems straight code gets 

stripped out by some servers or mail programs.


thanks,

Marc
