AS3 load external swf file

programming flash
1

Hi,

I tried to load a swf file stored at the same path as my current load file I try to load an external swf file that is stored at the same path as my current Main.fla. I got some strange error like: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at mini$iinit()

Since I don’t have any function called init in the AS class for the external swf, I just don’t know where to start for debugging. Does anyone know what might cause this problem?

The file “mini1.swf” runs fine as a standalone.

Here is my code in my Main.fla:

import flash.net.*
import flash.display.Loader;

var temp;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();

temp = new URLRequest(“mini1.swf”);
loader.load(temp);
addChild(loader);

Thanks a lot for any hints.
