I'm creating a demo swf that won't attach to a server and may be hosted, or launched from the desktop. I wish to externalize some data in a separate xml or text file that will live beside the SWF rather than being embedded in it (actually I may need both).
What's the best approach here? In using HTTPService to read the data file (which I placed in html-template so it got copied to bin-debug), I got a security sandbox error running under the Flexbuilder debugger.
