Do you have access to a scripting language on the server where the file
resides? If you do, get that to do the check for if the file exists and
interrogate that instead. Maybe.

If onload fires immediately with success==false then you know that there's
no file, so why don't you wait for a reasonable interval and then if it's
not fired than assume the file exists. not the best of solutions but should
work.

It stands to reason that if onLoad fires with success==false no file was
loaded anyway, so i don't see why you'd need a separate handler for
wether success is false NOW or success is false a little later.
onLoad(success){
if(success){
//handle file load
}else{
//handle error
}
}
I think because if the file exists, you will have to wait till the file has
loaded completely before you know about it.

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone knows of any good tools to convert PPT to SWF.
So far the best one I've found is Flash Printer. But I'd like to have
the flexibility of converting each frame of the PPT movie to a swf. And
it would be great if it would also maintain the animation.
Thanks!

I backtracked on this thread...
I guess the questions are:
1) what are you trying to load?
2) what onLoad(success:Boolean) are you using?
Are you using the XML or LoadVars?
Assuming you are using the LoadVars, a more reasonable "timeout"
approach would be something like:

successfully completing this process: my XML is well-formed, and

Ian: "There's no Flash native hack as far as I know."
You can check (and cache while you're at it) any file by using LoadVars:

var fileExists:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
fileExists.onLoad = mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, doCheck);

xml.parseXML is not an asynchronous event like xml.load, so like
jesse said, you have no need of a loader,
so, after you call parseXML, you can start using the xml object to
