flash actionscript : Plugin differences!?!

Sometimes (for one or many obscure reasons) I've found a single SWF to behave
different depending on what browser I am using.
I always test Flash offline/online + IE/NS and I recently realized that Flash
running under Netscape doesn't load all the images it was supposed to.
I think Actionscript (1.0/Flash MX) is out of question because the code is
simple and it actually runs with IE.
I also updated the plugin and even upgraded the NS browser I was using (now
7.1).

I also tried relative and absolute URLs, but the behaviour keeps the same
(online and offline).
If I request the image directly from the location bar it loads OK and after
that the SWF file loads the image inmediatly... (strange).

Is there someone with the same troubles?
Thanks.

If I understand you correctly, the error is that sometimes the images don't
always load. In addition sometimes they all load at once rather than in order?

Okay, if that's correct:

Had something like this before. Here's what I found out...

Use an Array to call the images to load, then check to see if the images are
loaded, and if it's loaded to show it...

Attached is a simple version I made... AS1 but if you bring it into MX04 it'll
auto update! :-)

Hope it helps!
