Hey Jester -
The message (more specifically, all FMS network traffic) should be
queued and handled after the ExternalInterface call returns. The Flash
client will read network traffic and buffer it until it gets some CPU
time with the main player loop, then it gets processed. So the main
ActionScript code, callbacks, interval timers, ExternalInterface calls,
etc. all get their turn to execute. =20
If your call is blocking, all these things are put on hold until it
returns, but they shouldn't be dropped or lost.

Subject: Re: [FlashComm] Blocking SWF Que's Server-side message?
Jester, it would probably take someone like you less time to try it
out than to write that email! ;)
BTW, I don't know the answer so when you find out let us know!
