I found an actionscript that loads the next photo in the background while you are viewing the current image. Problem I am having is the crossfade, it works if you are using a direct link in your xml file **/images/photo1.jpg** and if you use a domain [**http://sub.domain.com/images/photo1.jpg**](http://sub.domain.com/images/photo1.jpg) in the xml file it loads the images just doesn’t crossfade.

This actionscript no longer has support, can some one with knowledge of flash and xml with security know how to fix this issue.

Thanks
