Hi everyone, thanks for all the advice and suggestions. I'm going to try
John's replacement suggestion, as this seems very promising!
Thanks!

html is in directory1

SWF is trying to load the XML from directory2/flash/xml/
A SWF knows the directory it was loaded from and so can find the xml
directory. For example I use this...
var temp:String;
temp=this.loaderInfo.url;

directory like: http://domainname.com/somsubdirectory/index.html; and get
it all to load correctly?
Paths that begin with a slash, such as /xml/data.xml, tell the
Is it published on the web? Or is the intranet on a shared drive on an internal
network? If it is the ladder, your path has to be longer than it would be for a
webserver.
Best bet would be to trace your butt off until you find the exact string you
need for the path. Go back and forth about 20
Thanks Nathan and Dave,
The leading slash was just a typo in my email, but the code doesn't
start with a leading slash, so that can't be the problem.
It's on an intranet, so an internal website that people like me, who are
external, can't see or access [and they won't grant me access

Well, in that case, it's doing something completely different. It's

and since it is an intranet blog... who knows where all the assets
are being placed...
Huh. Well please take no offense when I say this, but your problem is
not with code, but with the people and processes running your intranet.
I would circle back with them before trying any fancy code
Curious about this solution below, when you say specify a fully qualified
url in the flash vars do you mean that the URL should specify the CURRENT
FULL URL* of the page loaded?
I was suggesting that you specify the fully-qualified URL for the XML
file. I just worked through a similar issue,
