SWFLoader or Image?
Surely the problem is with Image - or does Image use the paths set by SWFLoader
to resolve its own paths?

I don't see any obvious problem with your setup. Set a breakpoint in
SWFLoader.as:loadContent and watch it try to resolve the URL into an absolute
URL. Maybe there is a clue there.

Yes, that's right: mx:SWFLoader
mySWFLoader.load(swfFile); //to load it
loadForCompatibility is true or false, makes no odds,
Not specifying a loaderContext, but when I've tried it makes no odds -
am I missing something here?

Just so I'm clear, you are using mx:SWFLoader and setting
source="C:\x35\learningObject.swf"?
I was just checking to see if you are or aren't specifying
loadForCompatibility or loaderContext

C:\x35\LearningObject.swf is the path.
'x35' is a folder containing the mxml file compiled by the app
via fcsh.
AirTricks waits for fcsh to finish, and then loads
LearningObject.swf.
What other params can I pass in to the swf that might help?
Thanks Alex,

What is the path to the LearningObjects.swf that you are
handing to SWFLoader in the AirTricks.SWF? Are you specifying any other
parameters for loading LearningObjects.swf?
mx:Image has code that tries to convert relative paths to
absolute paths relative to the current SWF so you don't need to place the JPG
in the AirTricks folder. It looks like the absolute path conversion is
getting fooled.

Thanks for your help.
The loaded SWF is a flex SWF, all built with the latest stable
release.
It uses mx:Image
Yes, using Flex 4.
Paths:
To Air App:
C:\Program Files\Xerte 3.5\AirTricks\AirTricks.exe which loads
C:\Program Files\Xerte 3.5\AirTricks\AirTricks.swf
To SWF:
C:\x35\LearningObject.swf
To image - it's in all these places, and it doesn't load.
C:\x35\media\DSC_0095.JPG [where it really ought to load from,
or be able to load from.]
C:\Program Files\Xerte 3.5\AirTricks\media\DSC_0095.JPG [where
you guys are telling me it should load from, but it doesn't]
The relative path is media/DSC_0095.JPG
If I execute C:\x35\LearningObject.swf it works fine.
The application is an .mxml ! editor and compiler, which
creates and edits mxml files, and compiles them. What I'm trying to do is load
and preview the results in the application.
Thanks,
J

Is the loaded SWF a Flex SWF? Is it using SWFLoader/Image?
Are you using Flex 4? What is the path to the AIR app, the SWF and the image
and what are you using for a relative path?

No, when I move the folder into the air app folder, the image
DEFINITELY does not load.
So, WTF?

Once your SWF is loaded the path is relative to your Air app.
Place a copy of your media folder and its contents accordingly.
