You are using Firefox, I bet. I have sent this behavior and I think it is just a bug in FF.

Jeff, Thanks for the reply. I am confused by the behavior of my Flex app. The status bar says "Transferring data from localhost..." and that status message never goes away. But, as you suggested, the data are complete: I pop the raw JSON string returned by the webservice into a TextArea, and it's all there, a string literal representing an array of objects: [{...},{...},{...}], and the string literal decodes into a well-formed ActionScript array. Is there something my results-handler has to do to clear that status message? Tim Maybe I'm missing something here, but to my understanding when the result event of your HTTP service fires, your call IS complete. You should have access to the json string that was pulled back from the service. Is there something else you need that the json string doesn't' supply?
