Yup this works fine , if you embed the image. But what if we want to still download the images dynamically and maintain a single instance of it.!
I mailed abt this previously, But I am wondering where did the mail slip ! :P Well the question is, Lets say in datagrid! I want to display images in cells and some images may repeat depending on the content. Its based on a entry in XML , say data.imageType , Now depending on it ... I should download the specific image and display it. Yeah I can tweak around with embedding the images. But then I have 2 problems with it 1, I can dynamically change the image set without rebuilding the SWF! 2. My swf becomes huge and loading time increases. I tried some insane things, but they really din't payoff !! ( for eg: <mx:Image id="image1" source="http://someurl/image.jpg"; /> Now we want the same instance to be loaded as a mxml tag again.... <mx:Image id="image2" source="{image1.source}" /> is reloading the image again ! :-( ) Suggest me a way out !!

That is only an image in the CCUVS page. This application needed to get done very fast... 4 1/2 days so I didnt really do everything right.
