Flash URLLoader won't work on standalone SWF vs in-browser

I've got a flash game that uses xml for server responses/requests.

I use the URLRequest and URLLoader classes to send the requests to the server.

When I play the game in a browser (so I've got an index.html file around the SWF) it works but when I play the game as a standalone SWF in flash player on Windows it won't send the request to the server.

I'm not sure what's wrong. I don't see any error messages.

I believe it is using http.

Are you listening for errors on your URlLoader? – BadFeelingAboutThis May 20 '15 at 00:21
Yeah I am listening for IO error. Nothing is displayed. – user1261710 May 20 '15 at 02:09
Listen for security errors and network errors as well. And global errors too is a good idea. See my answer to this question: http://stackoverflow.com/a/27573334/1457439 – BadFeelingAboutThis May 20 '15 at 04:40
