actionscript 3 - Flash object cannot connect to remote server -


my company design digital signage solutions companies. animated widgets typically produced in flash.

in current project i'm experiencing bit of odd issue. screen split 3 areas: video, rss ticker, , weather. rss , weather objects created using flash. each object it's own flash file.

both flash object utilize same method connect remote servers:

function loadweatherfromurl():void {     var urlrequest:urlrequest  = new urlrequest("my url");      var urlloader:urlloader = new urlloader();     urlloader.addeventlistener(event.complete, completehandler);      try{         urlloader.load(urlrequest);     } catch (error:error) {         trace("cannot load : " + error.message);     } }  function completehandler(event:event):void {     var loader:urlloader = urlloader(event.target);     //do stuff data... } 

when testing in ide, both weather object , rss object work fine, seen below:

working rss object

once deployed signage software doesn't work anymore. however, weather object works expected. flash object doesn't encounter url loading error either. compare pic #2 , pic #3 see how view errors.

if try preview both weather object , rss object locally in web-browser (ie, firefox), local permission errors, expected.

permission error

so ideas why 1 work , other wouldn't? if had cors (cross origin resource sharing) wouldn't both fail? have tried both options (local / network only) in publish -> playback settings.

the weather object powered yahoo:

yahoo weather

and rss object powered ctv news (canadian television network):

ctv rss feed

edit:

for rss feed (above used weather object's methods, they're identical except function name , error output) have following:

at run time

error_msg.text = "loading..."; 

then url loading:

function loadfeedfromurl():void {     var urlrequest:urlrequest  = new urlrequest("http://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/rss/ctv-news-ottawa-1.1245493");     error_msg.text = "";     var urlloader:urlloader = new urlloader();     urlloader.addeventlistener(event.complete, completehandler);     try{         urlloader.load(urlrequest);     } catch (error:error) {         trace("cannot load : " + error.message);         error_msg.text = error.message;     } } 

edit #2

here updated loading function, basic error handling functions.

function loadfeedfromurl():void {     var urlrequest:urlrequest  = new urlrequest("http://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/rss/ctv-news-ottawa-1.1245493");     var urlloader:urlloader = new urlloader();     urlloader.addeventlistener(event.complete, completehandler);     try{         urlloader.load(urlrequest);     } catch (error:error) {         trace("cannot load : " + error.message);         error_msg.text = error.message;     }     urlloader.addeventlistener(ioerrorevent.io_error, ioerrorhandlerfunction);     urlloader.addeventlistener(ioerrorevent.network_error, ioerrorhandlerfunction);     urlloader.addeventlistener(securityerrorevent.security_error, securityerrorhandlerfunction); }  function ioerrorhandlerfunction() {     error_msg.text = "io error!"; }  function securityerrorhandlerfunction() {     error_msg.text = "security error!"; } 

the error_msg textfield stays "loading...", doesn't appear of error types being received.
