It's an internal server that's supposed to serve me images. The url is something classy,
http://<host>:<port>/thumbnailServer/getThumbnail?<a <http:// : /thumbnailServer/getThumbnail?> nd a couple of params here to identify the file to serve> Everything works fine if the server is up and running. But once I'll shut it down and reload the Flex app, the Flex mx:Image object will keep "loading" the URL forever, no error events are ever being dispatched. Nothing.
