Hi Bruce, For getting rid of the Security Sandbox violation error that you are getting, you will have to explicitly trust the swfs / images that you are loading. One way of doing this is the method that abdul has suggested in his mail
alternatively, You could also do this: Trust an SWF explicitly by adding it to the Trust List. This could be done by adding a cfg file in the following location: C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust\TrustedStuff.cfg Just enter the folder which you want to always trust. For example if one wants to trust C:\Flex, just add that in the cfg file. You could comment out things by adding a #. The following links have some useful info too: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00001604.html http://flashplatform/dev/projects/maelstrom/specs/localfilesecurity/LocalFileSecurity.cfm http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_8_security.pdf Hope this helps, Thanks Harish Flex-QA Adobe India. --- Abdul Qabiz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Bruce, > > Loading local SWF might not be working because of > Security Sandbox.
