[worldKit-dev] ActionScript in a SWF layer?

[Nickolas Raterman]

Hi Mikel,

I turned off the GeoRSS, but still no luck.  I also disabled the zoomselect
and did some other things to simplify the configuration file (See Below),
but still no luck.  It may have something to do with how I have my swf layer
set up.  Do you know of any similar swf layers that have been used with
worldKit and have worked.  It would be nice to get this to work, but it is
not mission critical.  So no sweat if you don't have any more quick ideas
about what the hang up could be.

Nick
