MovieClipLoader bug

Question

I’ve noticed that if you close an Internet Explorer
pop-up window while flash is downloading more then 2 items using a
MovieClipLoader class the parent window will refuse to load any
more content from the domain of the flash movie. I can post a
sample if requested.... Is this a known bug?

Answer 1

The components you're having trouble with create their popup
ui in _root.
For example, the list part of the ComboBox is created in
_root. But if _root
doesn't have the necessary assets in its library, that part
of the component
cannot be created. In your case, you can either add all the
components to
library in your topmost movie or use _lockroot to force the
popup parts to
be created in the loaded movie.
Example:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("components_mc",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
var lo:Object = new Object();
lo.onLoadInit = function(target_mc){
target_mc._lockroot = true;
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcl.addListener(lo);
mcl.loadClip("components_mc.swf", components_mc);
