Ben, Try registering with loader.contentLoaderInfo for the various load events (especially IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR) to see what could be going wrong. Since the load is asynchronous, Flash may not be able to throw an error immediately, so it has to dispatch an error event.

I am having some through with loading one set of images to the cache and not having much luck trapping the error. The following try/catch is totally ignored - what am I doing wrong ? here's a snippet ---------------------------------------------------------- trace(" not in cache or inaccessible: creating new Loader"); loader = new Loader(); try{ loader.load(request); } catch(e:Error) { trace("loadResult="+e) } cachedItems.push(loader); result = loader ----------------------------------------------------------
