Hello everyone,

I have a swf gallery and it works perfectly if I run the gallery.swf directly, but I have an index.swf where I’m loading the gallery.swf. Everything works and it loads all the different thumbnails images on the xml file, but I can’t load the bigger images.

It works if I run the gallery.swf directly, but it doesn’t work if I run it inside the index.swf. I simply use the following loading method:

```auto
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("gallery.swf");
 
loader.load(request);
addChild(loader);

```
