Re: [flexcoders] Loading Remote SWF Assets in FireFox
The path is correct, registered for progress and complete but no events are fired. Viewing the url in loadContent through a browser shows the asset. We use serviceCapture and this also shows no attempt at loading any of the assets. Is it perhaps a security issue that is only enforced in firefox? thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Loading Remote SWF Assets in FireFox
Absolute.. I'm stumped. Does loader somehow eval the url before making the request. I've noticed for example with FileReference.upload if the servlet destination is a 404 an upload attempt is never made.
