Loading SWFs that import shared library items using a MovieClipLoader is
also problematic.  Are the SWFs that you are loading importing shared
library items?

Does anyone have any insights as to why onLoadInit (the movieClipLoader
event) might fail in some instances?

Background:
I create programs for CD and web delivery. Programs simply consist of a
menu
system and a movie clip into which external swfs are loaded as the
content.
I preload this swf content using the movieLoader routine as described in
Flash Help in order for page display to be seamless. I use onLoadInit in
order to gather information about files for use in navigation once they
are
initialized and I also have the option to call a function to "start" the
content.

Problem:
While testing, each swf loaded successfully triggers the onLoadComplete
and
then onLoadInit perfectly. However, when launching the projector or the
generated swf, onLoadComplete is always successful but the onLoadInit
event
simply fails for the majority of the pages. For reasons I cannot
understand,
it will succeed for certain files - the same ones - only occasionally. I
have noticed that page content seems to affect the onLoadInit, because
pages
with graphics were less likely to init. And as a test, I created
substitute
pages that were completely empty, about 2k each. The problem went away.

Thanks to anyone who can help, even if only to inform me that onLoadInit
is
known to be unreliable.
