Hi,

I encountered a very strange problem (probably bug) while loading
multiple images from IE. Flash is very simple (code is stripped
version of match larger program) it contains simple for loop that
loads image 20 times, and COMPLETE handler that position image.

Running application from Flash IDE is ok, but if user run flash
embeded into html from IE (IDE auto generated html) and interrupt
loading (closes IE tab (not whole IE, just tab)) next load of same
html stop working. What is event more strange, is that image url
entered in addres field of IE will not work?!?!

To conclude, to reproduce this behavior: run html from IE and close
tab in middle of loading process (after few images loaded). Running
html again will not work (or typing image url into address). NOTE that
tab must be closed (not whole IE). Closing IE and running html again
will work normaly.

ActionScript Code:

// flash have TextArea named 'trt' on stage (x:319, y:15, w:135, h:
366)
var nxy:Number = 0;
for (var i=0; i<20; i++) {
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("http://maptp12.map24.com/map24/
webservices1.5?
action=renderMapImage&cgi=Map24RenderEngine&mid=EV AL_MAPNETWORK_NT_EUROPE&cgi=Map24RenderEngine&iw=2 56&ih=256&cmd0=MOV&nav0=NORTHWEST&x0|
0=100&y0|0=80"));
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.CO MPLETE,
onLoadComplete2);
}

function onLoadComplete2(e:Event) {
trt.text += "LOADED\n";
var l:Loader = e.target.loader;
l.x = l.y = nxy;
nxy += 10;
addChild(l);
}
stop();
// end of code

I reproduce same behavior on Vista with IE7 and on XP with IE7. On
firefox it works ok.

It seems that any flash based map viewer have this error: flash yahoo
maps have same issue, www.flashearth.com too, and also google flash
based map have sam error.

I did not know is this IE faule or Flash player fault.

Also, there are no simultanous donwload limits or whatever, it can be
reproduced with prerendered images from localhost.

Is there any idea how to resolve this.

P.S. Where I can send feedback to Microsoft about IE7 bugs?

Best,
