automatic country (or similar) detection

[seantuk]

i heard there was a was to make flash automaticly detect a clients localazation, and perhaps even use this to automatically load country specific xml files.

is this true?
is even nearly true?
where should i be looking to learn more about this?
is there an exmaple somewhere?

i now think that the solution has something to do with XUpdateResolver - but i can't find an exmaple of it being used this way (i may, in actual fact, be completely wrong)

i was completely wrong. authoring multilingual/multilanguage text with the strings panel is what i was after. it makw the correct language text load from xml files when a movie is forst run.

unfortunatly, i can find any way of getting an indication of how loaded this text is. at the moment all the text boxes are changing on frame 2 or 3 ish, when the xml has loaded. how can i check to see if it's loaded, so i can wait a little longer?

also, how can i fool flash plaer into tkinking i'm a foreigner?
