Hi, there is an error in documentation. In BulkLoader?.LOADER_TYPES available types are text types. It should be : jpg, swf, png, gif. Besides - great tool, thnx :)

Hi Szemraj.

Thanks for the report, this has been fixes in version 0.9.1 (rev 65).

Great set of classes, excellent work! Just wondering if there is a timeout option for a loader, specified in milliseconds perhaps, which if the threshold value is surpassed throws a load error event? Would be handy for people on slow networks to have some kind of gracefully handled timeout event.

Cheers!

No timeout option yet, although it is a good idea. Tipically, BulkLoader? will make 3 retries (unless you pass a different number on add() ), which should help in most cases.

Cheers Arthur
