Determining platform capabilities (Flash 
Professional Only)

Each combination of target device and Flash Lite content type defines a set of available Flash 
Lite features, such as navigation type, supported device sound formats, or input text support. 
When the Information debug option is enabled in the emulator settings pane, the emulator 
generates a list of platform capabilities for the currently selected device and content type. For 
more information on setting debug options, see 

The following table describes the Flash Lite platform capabilities as they are reported in the 
Output panel when you test your application in the emulator:
