Hi Maxim,

Thanks for the message, is this a known problem with other people, or am
I the only one experiencing it? I've been doing some tests modifying the
source file but so far I haven't been able to figure out what causes the
problem or get any debug data to display in my browser.

I have included the flash.external.ExternalInterface library in the
screenSharingDialog.lzx file and added this line to the keydown and
keyup event handlers:

ExternalInterface.call( "console.log" , k);

But I'm not getting anything to display in Firebug.

Is there a good way I can collect debug data from the Flash application?
That would help me diagnose the problem. I've tried console-logging the
Java application that is run by the person sharing their screen, but it
doesn't indicate anything abnormal when the remote user presses
spacebar, so I think the problem is with the Flash part of the application.

Thanks,

Andrew
