Classes
 NameDescription
 FileFilter The FileFilter class is used to indicate what files on the user system are shown in the file-browsing dialog box that displays after FileReference.browse() or FileReferenceList.browse() is called.
 FileReference The FileReference class provides a means to upload and download files between a user's computer and a server.
 FileReferenceList The FileReferenceList class provides a means to let users select one or more files for uploading.
 LocalConnection The LocalConnection class lets you develop SWF files that can send instructions to each other without the use of fscommand() or JavaScript.
 NetConnection The NetConnection class provides the means to invoke commands on a remote application server, such as Flash Media Server or Flex, and to play streaming FLV files from either an HTTP address or a local drive.
 NetStream The NetStream class provides methods and properties for playing Flash Video (FLV) files from the local file system or an HTTP address.
 ObjectEncoding The ObjectEncoding class allows classes that serialize objects (such as NetStream, NetConnection, SharedObject, and ByteArray) to interoperate with prior versions of ActionScript.
 Responder The Responder class provides an object that is used in NetConnection.call() to handle return values from the server.
 SharedObject The SharedObject class is used to read and store limited amounts of data on a user's computer.
 SharedObjectFlushStatus A class that provides values for the return code from SharedObject.flush().
 Socket The Socket class enables ActionScript code to make socket connections and read/write raw binary data.
 URLLoader The URLLoader class downloads data from a URL as text, binary data, or URL-encoded variables.
 URLLoaderDataFormat A class that provides values that specify how downloaded data is received.
 URLRequest The URLRequest class captures all of the information in a single HTTP request.
 URLRequestHeader A URLRequestHeader object encapsulates a single HTTP request header and consists of a name/value pair.
 URLRequestMethod The URLRequestMethod class provides values that specify whether the URLRequest object is a POST or a GET.
 URLStream The URLStream class provides low-level access to downloading URLs.
 URLVariables The URLVariables class allows you to transfer variables between a Flash application and a server.
 XMLSocket The XMLSocket class implements client sockets that let the computer that is running Flash Player communicate with a server computer identified by an IP address or domain name.
