Trying to run the JavaScript locally (within your computer) will result in the error message you are getting.

However, if you go through the whole process of setting it up and running this through your server website it does work.

In other words, it actually has to be run through the Internet to work.

I am not sure what the IE issue might be on this. Someone else might.

I have a similiar issue. My problem is, is that I need it to work locally, because my project will be put to a dvd so users can access it on their HD. Is there a solution to call js through flash locally?
