Re: Display the distance
Hey Will- It should work fine as long as your security settings are set. This is what I did to get loadMovie to work: - Saved SWF from the Hello World used in the Flash CS3 Tutorial - Put SWF in a folder along with a FLA file - Specified in security settings that files in that folder should be trusted - Put following code in the FLA file: var loadMovie = new Loader(); addChild(loadMovie); loadMovie .load(new URLRequest(MapSimple.swf)); - Tested movie. Result: Great success! - pamela On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 1:58 AM, Will [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yep that's what I'm trying to do, re-using it inside my flash application. The size is set, the API key is set correctly. It doesn't like at all. I've tried: loadMovie(map.swf, image_mc); which imports SWF's, but when I used the maps SWF it doesn't show at all.
