Yup another help request from me: Passing flashVars to a subloaded swf

First I need to say thank you to the great community we have here. We have some smart actionscripting cookies here.

Now on to my question: So I’ve been able to load a swf into my parent swf and pass some flashvars via the query string. Genius. So for example:

var video:Loader=new Loader();
video.load(new URLRequest("local_video.swf?v=movie.mp4"));
video.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, videoloaded);
function videoloaded(e:Event):void {
    addChild(video);
}

It works great. But I’m afraid that if I use the method multiple times each time because the variables will be different it’ll cause the viewers browser to download new version of the same swf file each time verses using the cached version like it would if there was no query string.

So I’m wondering is there’s another way to pass the flashvars to the subloaded swf.

Fantastic. I’ll give it a try. Thank you for coming to the rescue.
