Policy file error while loading images form facebook

Question

Hi,

I making a game leaderboard on facebook. I'm not using connect but working inside the canvas. When I try to load the images from facebook it gives me the following error.

SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation: Loader.content: http://test cannot access http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v22941/254/15/q652310588_2173.jpg A policy file is required, but the checkPolicyFile flag was not set when this media was loaded.

Here is my loader code

    public var preLoader:Loader;
    preLoader=new Loader();
        **update**
        Security.loadPolicyFile('http://api.facebook.com/crossdomain.xml');
        Security.allowDomain('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net');
        Security.allowInsecureDomain('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net');
                    **update-end**


        public function imageContainer(Imagewidth:Number,Imageheight:Number,url:String,path:String) {
        preLoader=new Loader();

        Security.loadPolicyFile("http://api.facebook.com/crossdomain.xml");
        var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
        context.checkPolicyFile = true;
        context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;

        preLoader.load(new URLRequest(path),context);

Any Ideas? I am importing the right class though.

UPDATE: I am loading the images from a different domain say , calling func http://fahim.com images are from http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v22941/254/15/q652310588_2173.jpg something ( I have made sure the pictures are static do not require a facebook login or anything , they are just user public profile pictures)

Answer 1

got it working, the facebook policy file for images is somewhere else and I turned everything else to "*"

Thanks for the help everyone.

Answer 2

var loaderContext:LoaderContext;
loaderContext= new LoaderContext();
loaderContext.securityDomain=SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
loaderContext.checkPolicyFile = true;

..then pass loaderContext when calling load()
