edit: Resolved; my ActionScript function for parsing the mySQL results didn’t correctly interpret a recently modified column, and the corrupted new output happened to be identical to the old output.

Hello,

I have created an application that accesses a PHP/mySQL database, but it caches old information.

I used the workaround from Adobe’s website, where I append ‘+ new Date().getTime()’ to the URLRequest String, but the application continues to use the old data.

When I trace the URLRequest String and C&P it into a browser window, however, I receive the correct data.

Any ideas?
