    Toruble loading txt files

    Hi, i have this flash movie in actionscript 3.0 that should load a txt file into a dynamic text file this is the code
    the movie is empty but the textbox called "mytext"


    Code:
    var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
    myLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;
    myLoader.load(new URLRequest("info.txt"));
    myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoader);
    	function onLoader(ev:Event){
    		trace ("Data loaded");
    		mytext.text = String(myLoader.data);
    	}
    mytext.multiline = true;
    mytext.wordWrap = true;
    but everytime i make a publish preview i get the following error (sorry for the spanish error names but u should understand the numbers , anyway 2044 should mean ioError not controlled and 2032 ¿¿secuency error?? i'm not sure because sometimes theese programs use different words over plain translations)

    Error #2044: ioError no controlado: text=Error #2032: Error de secuencia. URL: file:///H|/Mis%20Documentos/Paginas%20Web/pruebas%20flash/cargar%20texto/info.txt
    at cargador3_fla::MainTimeline/cargador3_fla::frame1()

    my text file does not have any kind of format it's only a series of words (dunno if it could be that i have to write something before the text like variables names or something) need some feedback on this.

    i've read sometign about needing crossdomain.xml file in the folder os i created one (even i think this sould not be the problem as i'm doing it on my computer. anyway my crossdomain looks like this:

    Code:
    <cross-domain-policy>
    <allow-access-from domain="*"/>
    </cross-domain-policy>


    i have been browsing for hours to find whats my problem here but most examples i have tried out give me the same error so i guess is something with the txt file or something with the crossdomain or something nobody says on any example or tute since is so basic (still i have not realized it tho)

    txh in advance

    mytext.text = ev.currentTarget.data;

    that is another way but not the solution

    Code:
    mytext.text = ev.currentTarget.data;
    that is another way of assigning the text data but the problem i have is while loading, i neve get data to the SWF so it does not matter how to assign it.
    Is the loader error i'm concerned about.

    does any1 know about this

    Error #2044: Unhandled ioError: text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file:///H|/Mis%20Documentos/Paginas%20Web/pruebas%20flash/cargar%20texto/info.txt
    at cargador3_fla::MainTimeline/cargador3_fla::frame1()

    and the file is there!!

    Have you tested if your movie works online? In some cases you get an error when you test your movie offline but online it works.
