No I wanted to write a pure action script factory (no mxml tags) and for some reason or other started down the track of using the Loader class. Probably because the docs said I could load swf's that way. Anyway that's what throws the error. If I try and load a Flex 2 swf file using Loader it always fails.
I just did a quick run through using SWFLoader and the swf's load up ok. Sweet!
Actually what I am really trying to do is tie some sub app's into a main shell application. I am very sketchy on how to do this. I was thinking once I had the swf's loaded I would embed them into a panel component and use a menu to link through. Not sure how they will speak to each other yet. The docs are a bit vague on partitioning.
Thanks for the nudge toward SWFLoader I'll have a crack at it tomorrow.

Ha,
I reverse translated you post. You used swfloader but that is what is throwing the erorr?
What type of code do you have in the swf that is loading?
I use SWFloader and have only had problems with sizing it's content.
Is the reason you want to avoid swloader because of the bug?

Try using the SWFLoader, it was designed ofr you guessed it, swf's!
I don't see any other things in your code that would cause that error.

I am hoping to build a little as3 factory to load my swf's but I am stumbling at the first hurdle.
I'd like to avoid using <mx:SWFLoader> so I am attempting to use the loader class. I can read in the swf file ok but immediately after the load it throws an Error#1009 (full detail at the bottom of the email).
All I am trying to do is load a swf into a canvas and returning. Sounds simple but noooo... not when I start to play :)
I've tried all sort of variations but no luck. Any ideas?
