Just a quick note because it took me a little while to find out that it's necessary to use "file://" syntax to access the local file system.
Actionscript:
-
// Basic example:
-
var url: String = "file:///Users/markusraab/Desktop/yourfile.swf";
-
-
// or use a file reference:
-
var file: File = new File();
-
var url: String = file.url;
-
-
var loader: Loader = new Loader();
-
loader.load( new URLRequest( url ) );
