I went through the tutorial on creating a photo gallery using flash and xml:

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml\_flash\_photogallery.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_flash_photogallery.htm)

If I use the xml file on the kirupa server (which uses absolute urls and links to images on the kirupa site) it doesn’t work. I have to download each image separately and change all the links to relative ones.

Does anyone know why? Is there some setting in flash which I have ignored? I am working on a dynamic site and need to be able to use absolute urls.

I would definitely appreciate any help with this
