public send(connectionName:String, methodName:String, [args:Object]) :
Boolean
Invokes the method named method on a connection opened with the
LocalConnection.connect(connectionName) command (the receiving LocalConnection
object). The object used with this command is called the sending LocalConnection object.
The SWF files that contain the sending and receiving objects must be running on the same
client computer.
There is a 40 kilobyte limit to the amount of data you can pass as parameters to this
command. If the command returns false but your syntax is correct, try dividing the
LocalConnection.send() requests into multiple commands, each with less than 40K of
data.
As discussed in the entry LocalConnection.connect(), Flash adds the current superdomain
to connectionName by default. If you are implementing communication between different
domains, you need to define connectionName in both the sending and receiving
LocalConnection objects in such a way that Flash does not add the current superdomain to
connectionName. You can do this in one of the following two ways:
■ Use an underscore (_) at the beginning of connectionName in both the sending and
receiving LocalConnection objects. In the SWF file containing the receiving object, use
LocalConnection.allowDomain to specify that connections from any domain will be
accepted. This implementation lets you store your sending and receiving SWF files in any
domain.
