Well then what you've done is moved away from his original question and
gone into the subject of project size/scope.  I thought we were still
talking about his question, so  I apologize.  I assumed when you used it
in the context of his question about Webservices... well, anyway.

I guess that's your opinion and not mine.  You're using the word
framework a lot more losely than I would.

Yeah, so it's the cart before the horse. How can you start using a
framework if the docs you read don't help explain how to get started
using it?  You can't use the framework until you know how to use the
framework.

>>I rewrote your code because it was wrong/sloppy:

Maybe for AS3, but I follow the method shown in the AS2 docs.  It's not
wrong if it works correctly, although as you have illustrated there may
be a better more refined method.   Sloppy infers that the coder knew a
better way but chose not to do it, which was not the case. I didn't
realize that setting it as a pending call would be better in this case.
Either way, my intent is just to help the original poster in his
question about Webservices, not go on and on about how he should be
using frameworks on large projects.
