Another question. Is there a way to allow BulkLoader to pull
arbitrary images off the net from an unknown number of sources? Before
BulkLoader (which has improved performance in my app) I was
able to pull any image I wanted by using a basic Loader. With
BulkLoader I am getting cross domain alerts when I deploy my app.

Writing a proxy works but is a performance hit.

thanks!

Hi M1keb.

Sorry for the long delay in writing back.

BulkLoader is not doing anything special that should break crossdomain
rules. If you are loading images, do watch out for using:
Bulkloader.get("key"),content as Loader
And from there on, since bulkLoader.getBitmapData() will threat the
content as data, putting a whole new set of security restrictions on
top.

Cheers
