If I understand this correctly:
html is in directory1
SWF in directory2/flash
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;

I was suggesting that you specify the fully-qualified URL for the XML
file. I just worked through a similar issu

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 soluti

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

need for the path. Go back and forth about 20
