[FONT=Arial]Hi, we are going mad, we have a flash project developed that is fed by XML files but the website is reacting very strange but only when we publish it on a server. Running the website locally has no issues.[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]Some of the strange behaviour are:[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial][/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]- sometimes it loads information from a different section behind the information of the current section[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial][/FONT][FONT=Arial]- the layout is programmed to be arranged in height when the XML is called, but this sometimes will not happen.[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]- get a windows message of a script causing delays and asking to cancel it. If you don’t it falls into a loop.[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]- images not loading the first time[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]The strange thing i[/FONT][FONT=Arial]f, when you see any of these errors, you refresh the page; then the error will not happen again. Has someone seen something similar before? [/FONT][FONT=Arial]We are under the impression that it could all come from a preloading issue of the XML. Any ideas???[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial][/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]Any help would be appreciated![/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]Thanks! [/FONT]
