OK, heard from the player engineers. This is a Firefox plug-in issue. They don't send us error data in a way that looks like the data stream so we can't tell it is an error.
You'll probably have to cook up a workaround. Maybe a timer that checks load progress and gives up after a while. -Alex ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alex Harui Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2008 11:06 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Re: SWFLoader.load() error handling does not work?
