[Flashcoders] MovieClipLoader

[dancedrummer]

I'm running into a problem that only occurs with Flash8.  I have a swf that
loads additions swf's with a MovieClipLoader object.  The first time I hit
the page it works fine.  On subsequent tries when the external swf's have
been cached in the browser they are not getting recognized as being loaded
by the MCLoader object.  Is not an issue with Flash7.  Anybody here know
anything about this?

Re: [Flashcoders] Someone knows about strange behaviour of window component on internet explorer?
