XML load problem

Hi,

I am trying to get my flash file to load xml data correctly, when i load loader.swf in the browser directly my xml is loaded and the movie functions correctly.
However when i embed and load the loader.swf from the index.html file, my xml is not loaded.

I have four files-

/test/index.html
/flash/loader.swf
/flash/house.swf
/flash/xml/data.xml

The xml loading code appears in the house.swf as follows:

Code:

/* Load XML information for info panel */
var dataXML = new XML();

dataXML.ignoreWhite = true;
dataXML.onLoad = function(success) {
    if (success){
        trace("XML Loaded.");
    }
    else {
        trace("XML Failed to load.");        
    }
}
dataXML.load("http://www.***.co.uk/flash/xml/data.xml");

The loader.swf loads the house.swf using the loadClip method in conjunction with the MovieClipLoader class.

Code:

my_mcl.loadClip("http://www.***.co.uk/flash/house.swf",my_mc);

Does anyone know why the xml isn't loading when the loader.swf is embedded in the html file?

Thanks,

Chromis
