		<description><![CDATA[I was recently tasked to improve the look and functionality of a site that lets users upload images.

		<description><![CDATA[To get the length of a loaded FLV, you need to have an object listening to the meta data stream. Here&#8217;s how: var vidClient:Object = new Object(); vidClient.onMetaData = onMetaData; ns.client = vidClient; //ns is the netstream object function onMetaData(metadata:Object):void { lengthOfVideo = int(metadata.duration * 1000)+1; trace("Length of flv from metadata = " + lengthOfVideo); [...]]]></description>

Press &#8216;esc&#8217; to close it and try File-&#62;save again. If it still doesn&#8217;t show up, use the following combination: Alt key, Space bar, &#8216;M&#8217; and use the arrow keys to [...]]]></description>
