Hi all,
I’m learning about local Shared Objects, flash MX’s equivalent of cookies, with some excellent direction from pom with his tutorial on this. I scanned through the tech notes at macromedia that pom linked to for more on shared objects, especially to find out where and how they are stored on the computer, the latter being suffiently answered. Check me if I’ve missed something, but I just can’t find anything about where they are stored.
As shared objects are not generated by the browser but by the flash player would they be stored in the tempory internet files folder like cookies are or not? I call the object to be stored locally user_profile
SharedObject.getLocal("user_profile");
but I can’t find it in my tempory internet files even though it stores the info I want it to when I come back on the refresh. Where are these things stored? I just got to know.
Hope this is not a stupid question its just I have to know things like this or as they drive me up the wall untill I find out. Could someone direct me some more on this.
