hi


English is not my native language so I hope you can understand this clearly

I have a problem with this code


its a wordsearch game with an xml file where you can found it in these links

I want to use it localy not on the internet so I put the security option to access to local files on the publish settings


http://www.subtangent.com/flash/wordsearch.fla.zip - fla

http://www.subtangent.com/flash/wordsearch-sample-xml-files-20061023.zip - xml


the thing as you can test it is that it works perfectly on flash player 6 but when you publish on 11.2 which I need because some functions compatibility it doesn't work at all and it doesn't reconize the xml file and it is displayed the message in the output error opening url 'file ///undefined'


but on flashplayer it works


so the code for the xml goes like this

Código ActionScript :

if (xmlFile == undefined) {    //debug = "xmlFile: default";    // otherwise this hard coded default is used:    xmlFile = "ws-default.xml";    // xmlFile = "non-existant.xml"; } else {    xmlFile = unescape(xmlFile); } loadWordSearch(xmlfile); getWordList();

so I though maybe its the way the code calls the xml file so I tried things like this

Código ActionScript :

xmlFIle = new XML(); xmlFile.ignoreWhite=true; xmlFile.load("ws-default.xml");  

and it didnt' work



and just in case, the flas, swf and xml are on the same folder, the names are correct


please if you know the answer let me know

xmlFile needs to always be referenced as xmlFile, not sometimes xmlfile.
