How can we tell if the form was recompiled or not. I've tried to time a form
load between when I simply reload a form and when I reload a form after a
change and don't notice much time different if any at all. So is it possible
the form is either recompiling every single time or is just recompiling veru
fast when chance the form.

Cf will create a temp swf file as well as cache the binary bits for x amount of time.

We have an application that dynamically builds pages from different modules, as
most people do I'm sure.

Our forms are fairly complex, they contain about 8 tabs in some cases as well
as grids and such. Other are simply one grid with 3 or 4 fields.

The time between the page request completion, and the time the progress bar
comes up is fairly long relative to the duration of the actual form loading as
per the progress bar time.

Although most of our forms are dynamically built, the content which populates
the form rarely changes, except maybe grids in some cases.

I understand the the form will sometimes recompile, but when does it
recompile. If I add a space between two tags, will the form recompile. Of the
file file changes, will the form recompile. Or is the information gathered
first then tested.

Also, as a side note. Since we are able to embed movies within flash forms.
Would it be possible to embed pre-compiled forms within a flash form?

I'm not sure if you can tell because each time the form is recompiled, the ID
of the page changes. As a test, I loaded a certain form and looked in the cache
at the datestamp then a few minutes later, made a change to the code, saved,
and refreshed the page to force a recompile. What happened was a new file was
generated. The old file still remained in cache as well.
