Relative URL's give me a File Not Found error, so I'm definitely using a full URL (just take a look at my code from the first e-mail I sent - you'll see where I'm forming the complete URL.)
But you're correct in that the "app:/" part does suggest it's looking on the local server... Which it shouldn't be doing... What is this "Charles" thing you speak of? Never heard of it -- sounds useful, tho. And the swf's I'm trying to load are all <mx:Application>, not <mx:Module> -- is that perhaps the problem? I couldn't get Flash Builder to compile any <mx:Modules> into .swf files... Or am I doing that wrong? If it's a <mx:Module> do you load it a different way (i.e. using something other than the Loader class to load it)? I've never done this type of thing before (loading another program into a running program), so I'm a newbie when it comes to this stuff... L.
