Mine works when both SWFs are local, or both are from the server. For local, however, your main application will have to be in a trusted directory, or the file itself will need to be trusted, via the Global Security Settings app:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.html Have you done that? Also, I'm using ModuleBase as the base class for my module (it's a non-DisplayObject class) instead of Module, and everything is done through ActionScript rather than MXML, and I don't know what the implications of that are. --- innovativecode <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dave, have you solved this yet?
