Hello, I have a doubt: When you open various flash pages in tabs, for example in Firefox, all those pages share the same Flash instance or each one use an instance of flash??
Bye!

A:
The LocalConnection class lets you communicate between different Flash Player and AIR instances, such as a SWF in an HTML container or in an embedded or stand-alone player. This allows you to build very versatile applications that can share data between Flash Player and AIR instances, such as SWF files running in a web browser or embedded in desktop applications.

My interpretation of that piece of text is: [...] Flash Player [...] instances, such as SWF files running in a web browser:
Every object-tag in HTML is essentially a different application. Though, the applications may share resources, they are definitely not a shared "instance".
