Greetings,

I was wondering if there was a way to open a telnet session within a flash movie, so the session would load in layer 1, for instance.

Just thought I’d ask something a little off the straight and narrow… 🙂

i really don’t think so, short of sending and receiving data with an external script that’s actually doing it.

i can’t imagine it would be efficient, kind of an intellectual exercise. let me know if you work this out though!!

I was only asking out of curiosity. Figured it have been done already. Oh well…

I’m probably not going to attempt this project, but if I do, I’ll let you know…
