[thelist] Flash Shopping Cart

[sasha]

Is there somewhere that your movie can be downloaded?
Not that I'd be much help.. I haven't touched Flash in a
year ;-).

It sounds like a simple loadMovie() somewhere to get
your fruit .swfs loaded.  I couldn't tell you how the
.txt file is created unless I know how it is being used.
