I'd like to run a looping switch routine to check all of my components and

Thanks.

SharedObject buggy
Posted by sneskid at 6/30/2006 12:58:30 AM
ShareObject.Flush( ) can have a number passed, representing how many bytes the
movie want's to store.
If you want exactly 1 meg, common sense says you'd need 1048576 bytes
(1024*1024)
1kb = 1024 bytes
1mb = 1024kb
I used 1048576 but then Flash says the movie is requesting 10megs.
