Answer 1

Try adding a cross-domain policy file at the root of your site: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14213.html

Also, having a browser tracer for debugging is quite helpful when developing: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flashtracer/ (add-on)

Lastly, check if any error is being dump in the browser console:

• Chrome: View -> Developer -> Developer Tools
• Firefox: Tools -> Web Developer -> Firebug (add-on)
