So I uploaded the same files (with the random query string attached to the filename for loading) to a server and tried it remotely, and the swfs were loaded, and reloaded again -- it did not appear to have fetched it from cache the second time.
However, the same problem persists: recursion error. It seems so illogical. And so frustrating. On 2/23/07, Jay Bibby <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Thanks, Mike for the reply. Problem with doing that is the loader then can't seem to find the file... Error opening URL "file:///.../puzzle3.swf?487" It was worth a try, though.
