    <p>I have an AS2 swf that is hosted by an AS3 swf and they connect using SWFBridge. During the course of things i need to unload the AS2 swf and reload it. Therefore I assume I need to re-establish the SWFBridge connection. But when I try to reopen the connection it doesnt appear to work. Heres what I have - </p> <p><strong>AS3 Code:</strong></p> <pre><code>var myBridge:SWFBridgeAS3; function setUpBridge() :void { myBridge = new SWFBridgeAS3("connectionID", this); myBridge.addEventListener(Event.CONNECT, handleConnect); } setUpBridge(); // the first time loadAS2SWF(); // loads the As2 swf using Loader class </code></pre> <p><em>... sometime later</em></p> <pre><code>loader.unload(); // unload the AS2 swf myBridge.close(); setUpBridge(); loadAS2SWF(); </code></pre> <p>Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Everything works fine for the first load of the AS2 swf but the connection is not being established in subsequent loads....</p> <p>... incidentally - it would appear that when reconnecting, the communication works ok from the host to the client but no calls to functions from clien to host swf are received?? confusing!</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>------------------------------------- UPDATE -------------------------------------------</p> <p>I found that when I had 2 browser windows open SWFBridge would not work. It seems there is an issue with connections using the same ID. For a discussion of this and some workarounds search for 'multiple-connection issue' on Grant Skinner's <a href="http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2007/07/swfbridge_easie.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">blog</a></p> <p>Hope this helps.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
