Hi Davide,
I assume the asterisks are just for our benefit. And I think the path
you are looking for is "root/ancestor/someElement/@someAttribute".
You need the / before the @.

The code on my old blog works for content published with Flash
authoring. However, it works because Flash inserts the export tags in
the swf automatically. If you have a swf that has a working
attachMovie, but no export tags, then it must be attaching the symbol
from another swf. An RSL perhaps?

When porting from AS2, you might find it more direct to use
XMLDocument instead of XML. This behaves exactly like the AS2 XML
object.
Having said that, I tried your code and it seemed to work (I assumed
where you put node.childIndex() it was a typo and you meant to write
_currentPage.childIndex())
Unless it's an AIR app, you'll need to write a custom parser. HTML4 is
not necessarily even well-formed XML, so you'll be starting at the
basics...
If it's a browser-based application, you might be able to have the
HTML rendered in a hidden browser frame, and then use FABridge to
communicate with
Try a much lower strength. Note that the default strength is 1, so try
values nearer to that.

But, while for..each does not guarantee any particular order, it does
not guarantee to be random either :-)
i.e. It might turn out that, in the next version of the flash player,
they find that they can have a more optimised implementation by

The xpath library included with Flash 8 is really quite basic, as it
is the bare minimum for generated paths for databinding purposes. It
only permits abbreviated syntax (though this is fine and preferable
most of the time), doesn't support any axes other than "child" (e.g.

I think those links are dead now. I lost some files a couple of years
back, during an ill-planned move. They are possibly lurking somewhere
on an old backup. But I think all the AS files ship with ASV anyway,

Is there any difference at all between deleting a variable and setting

There is a difference. But you won't find many occasions where the
difference is apparent. (one example is a for..in loop will iterate
over a variable whose value has been set to undefined - and that might
be
public function destroy():Void {
// Perform clean-up.
delete this;
}
This code is garbage. The delete operator operates on variables and
not on values. So "delete this" will just delete a variable called
"this" within the scope of that function. To remove an object from
memory,

In general, swf7 content should be the same or faster in FP8/9 than in

Yes, you are missing the fact that this is just a technology preview.
You should expect things to work unexpectedly, and you should report
issues to Adobe, instead of ranting on a mailing list.
If you need a production-ready AS3 editor, use FlexBuilder2.
The optimal way is probably to use copyPixels() for each puzzle piece,
setting the alphaBitmapData argument to an image that contains just
the puzzle piece shape. That will effectively mask out the shape of
the piece, but will perform a lot better than using a vector mask, as
