flashcs3 Currency converter

[Flep]

FlepStudio has created a new free utility for Flash and Actionscript 3.0.

This little Flash application can make quick conversions between two different currencies.

Flash loads an external XML containing the list of codes of all world currencies.

The calculation is performed by calling a PHP script which passes the values to a google calculator url that handles conversions.
