Once in a while you require Flash... Well yesterday was such a day :-)
I'm was working on a Flash component that tries to submit data back to the server...
I don't have a lot of flash experience so I still don't know all its quirks.
Well I was trying to submit an XML document the following way:
var xml:XML = new XML() //... fill xml ... xml.send( '/my/url' );
Well... it didn't submit! No interaction with the server...
After some searching I discovered this was caching. Always that stupid caching...
So I solved this by adding a timestamp:
xml.send( '/my/url?ts=' + ( new Date() ).getTime() )
Again the timestamp to the rescue...
