Is there a property or function to detect if a Flash movie is being tested
in authoring mode or live on the web?

Basically I have added a random variable to my xml file when loading it to
prevent caching.

The following works in both authoring and when live

myXML.load("xml/homeFlashContent.xml");

Whereas the following including the cache busting code doesn't work when
tested within Flash IDE.

my_Date = new Date();

myXML.load("xml/homeFlashContent.xml?"+my_Date.getUTCSeconds());

I would therefore like to have an if statement something like

If (boolAuthoringMode == true) {

        myXML.load("xml/homeFlashContent.xml");

} else {

        myXML.load("xml/homeFlashContent.xml?"+my_Date.getUTCSeconds());

}


If there are any better solutions please let me know.

Thanks

Paul
