Hi,

Flex can only give you limited access to the localsystem,so this is not possible.

You are the MAN!!!

Thank you so much. You saved me tons of time trying to figure this out in actionscript for Flex 3 and I still would never have been successful.

You are a life saver.
Thanks,

Hi,

After the reload the Application is re-initialized means everything starts over again.The Timer you are using also re-initializes.If you want to access the previous counter value you got to store the value for this use the SharedObjects concept[browser cookies in Flex]there are posts here in my blog.comment for queries.

kumar.

Cheers dude, worked a treat.

Might be worth mentioning that this also works from anywhere in ActionScript:

flash.net.navigateToURL(ref, “_self”);

Noting that navigateToURL comes from flash.net

Yes its possible, there’s a post here on usage of Timer Class just refer that and using this Timer Class we can raise an event at specified Time interval. For you just call the function on the given interval, so that function will refresh the App.

Refer :: Timer Class and its methods.
Link for the Usage of Timer Class .
