If you're using FLPMaker to make creating Projects in Flash MX 2004 Professional easier, you may want to update your copy with the bugfix Markus Cecot sent to me a little while back (unfortunately it got lost in the sea of spam I receive on my FlashAnt email account so I couldn't post it earlier -- if anyone wants to send me email directly, sent it to my first name at ariaware (com) instead.)

Here's Markus' email with more information on the issue:

I found your FLPMaker very useful but was little but frustated about some xml errors. Flash ignored them but the Sepy actionscript editor recognized them. I had to open the project first in Flash and change the project before I could open it in Sepy. I took a look at the generated FLP file and found some redundant close tags.

On line 221 I changed your line:

if ( ! folderEnded )
into
if ( !folderEnded && createFolder && folderStarted)

...and voila now I am able to open the generated file immediately in Sepy.

I've attached the changed Java class and a diff file. Hope someone finds it use full too. Thanks to your great work. It saved me already some hours of unnecessary work.

Here's the updated flpmaker.java file.
