Guess I focused too much on you having to resort to hacks to make Zink work with AS2. mProjector does not require that, but it also has no way to control a browser (among other things) like you apparently need, so it’s no solution either… :(

Hi Jesse,
I recently did a review for 6 of the major projector tools: http://www.flashmagazine.com/1100.htm What I found was that mProjector is that tool that works the most like I want such a tool to work. It works from within any AS2 class without troubles and most commands require no callback handlers, they rather return results instantly. Ultra-smooth development, but fewer commands than Zink. It’s also slightly slower than Zink for processor intensive tasks.
