Sound Loading in IE

Question

Hi,
I'm trying to load a sound into various objects created on
stage dynamically.
Within Flash env. and FireFox, all goes right:
A container MC is created
A Sound object is created within that MC
onLoad function is registered for each container['s].sound
I can't figure out how to bypass the fact that IE wouldn't
fully-load the sound into memory. Needless to say this problem
stucks my movie from playing properly later on.
Following is how I create the sound obj.
Thanks.

Answer 1

Here are some thoughts
1. Is it possible a corrupted sound is caught in the cache on
the testing
machine?
2. Substitute other sounds to see if the sound is a problem.
3. Assign the onLoad BEFORE the loadSound method. It is
remotely possible
that at run time the loadSound gets an undefined reference to
onLoad.
Remember that thisMC_snd.onLoad = function is a runtime
assignment versus a
compile time and so for runtime do things in the order needed
for proper
memory assignment.
