Conor on his bike and some urban scenes from the same day.

Not too much to say, and, if i did have something, i’ve either been too tired or sick to haul myself upstairs to the computer to write it out.

I’ve been feeling a bit “off” computers since the turn of the new year, and it kind of freaks me out. I’m hoping that i regain the love soon!

I’m sure i’ve read about this someplace else, but i’ve recently realized that there is a trick i can take from the world of Python and use in Flash. The project i’m working on requires lots of external files. Testing these files can be a pain, if you have to load the whole framework, just to see if some specific part of the template is working. So, what i’ve done, is in the template file, i check to see if the _root (or this) is equal to _level0. If it is, it means that the template is not running in the framework, and i can run some specific testing and debugging code. Handy.
