[Flashcoders] Interface for displayObjects

As far as I know, the loader.dataFormat refers to the loaded data, not the one you are about to send. My guess is that the error is on trying to decode the variables name/value pair on the loaded data (see that the error is triggered by URLLoader/onComplete()) Leandro Ferreira Sent from Brasil
