Yes, cache busting on loading of external assets (images, video, sound, xml
etc) works , but it won't work while testing locally necessarily (Flash IDE
and some browsers will not let you use query strings on file:\\ references)
BTW - your cache busting should look like the below (getTime() give you a
unique number of the # of milliseconds since 1970 :)
loadXML("xml/player.xml?nocache="+new Date().getTime());
