[flexcoders] Re: SWF is not a loadable module / crossdomain.xml woes
Thanks Alex, I figure out the problem is one of the getModules is trigger twice for the same modules. The ModuleManager will generate an error if the first one is not finished, that's why when it is cached, it downloaded at once and is okay. I think i need more checking before calling getModules. : Regards Dan --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Alex Harui [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: That would imply a timing issue assuming you do have crossdomain.xml privileges.
