Flex RemoteObject timeouts?
I've been tinkering around with Flex RemoteObjects, and I've found that they aren't very well behaved with respect to timing out. First, I can't figure out how to set a timeout on "connect". I know I can set requstTimeout, which will correctly timeout after an initial handshake… But if the server doesn't handshake, the connection doesn'...

Does Flex save stuff to the local cache on client computer?
My Flex app downloads a bunch of images. When the user closes the browser window (or navigates away from the page), those images shouldn't be saved in the local cache. HTTP headers for the SWF file tells browser to fetch it from the website every time -- that is, it shouldn't save the SWF file locally. I just want to make sure that any o...

I've have to catch the asyncToken from send() and attach a new property so I know what it's supposed to do in the handler. I've set up an example here: http://www...
