i have recoded essentially the same application in AS2.0 and 3.0, both giving the same results. i am trying to stream mp3 audio in flash, and when i test the resulting flash locally it streams fine. however, in a browser nothing happens. in firefox, the status bar will show 'Transferring data from <domain>...', and Internet Explorer and Google Chrome do nothing as well.

if anyone can help me with this please post 😞 and i can post code if needed.

then check the shoutcast docs. there's no problem with your actionscript if your target path is correct and there's no security issue.

why are you using http? what kind of server is that?

it is SHOUTCast, it uses HTTP as a transport protocol.

that looks like a cross-domain load to flash. use a local path.

what do you mean local path? it is a streaming audio server, and it's not on the same port as where the flash will be served.

below your loadSound() method what's trace(url.text+":"+url.text.length) reveal? again, copy and paste.

(and make sure there's no space between the d and left paranthesis)
