Loading remote files (gifs) into Air app via Xml

[Ricardinho]

So basically ive got an air app that loads in an Xml doc which has url paths to images online on a domain. These images should be pulled down and inserted into a slideshow in the app but dont (all other information from the xml is inserted fine though - text info).

Ive tested exactly the same code in a AS3 fla (not an air app) and it works fine in an offline environment (like an offine environment of an air app) showing that both the code and the xml doc (image urls included) are working fine.

What is the reason for the images not being able to be pulled into the Air app. Is this a security issue? Ive looked in the sandboxe security (allowDomain etc) but cant work out how to implement these scripts or even if they're the right solution?

ps.. no errors are thrown out during compile

Does anyone know or has anyone had the same issue?

Thanks in advance

Nope, I've not had those issues at all. All my xml image paths load perfect into my AIR app, showing the image as expected.
