Ahh - missing the math: prefix. Anyhoo, they work with nodesets, not
with arbitrary values, so that don't do what I need. I've just added
upper- and lower-limit boundary checking the card way

Pah - I commented out the static linking because I couldn't get it to compile.

I <3 swfmill ;o)

> what do you think about finally doing 0.2.12 around 1st? i'd ask the regulars on this list for some broader testing before weekend, so we can finally get this load of bugfixes and flash8 tags out the door... in fact i wouldn't care too much about some "flash8 compatible" claim, but instead ask for testcases and requests about what you/we've missed about it 'til now, for a followup 0.2.13...

I think this is a good idea.

Cheers,

Steve
