Problems with images loading rotated

[Gramma2005]

On my local machine I have setup a test website with a virtual directory to C:\images\ called photos. I have a number of images which I have rotated via the Windows Rotate CW right click menu item. In AS, I have tried the following:

 

var loader:ImageLoader = new ImageLoader("../../../images/8255/8255692_Desert.jpg", {name:"test", container:this, width:150, height:100, scaleMode:"proportionalInside", bgColor:0xFFFFFF});
loader.load();

 

This loads the image with the correct rotation (the path is pointing to the same folder as the virtual directory, just relative). When I use the URL for the local website, the image shows in the original direction (not rotated). Below is the code:

 

var loader:ImageLoader = new ImageLoader("http://localhost/ImageService/photos/8255/8255692_Desert.jpg", {name:"test", container:this, width:150, height:100, scaleMode:"proportionalInside", bgColor:0xFFFFFF});
loader.load();

 

Also if I use the URL: http://localhost/ImageService/photos/82 ... Desert.jpg in my browser the image is rotated as expected. I have tried refreshing the app pool in IIS and restarting the website, but cannot get the image to load rotated (how it is saved). Any ideas?

This has nothing to do with LoaderMax, but here are a few guesses:

 

1) You're pointing at the wrong file.

 

2) You need to clear your browser's cache (Flash uses IE's browser cache for local testing, just so you know).

I am fairly certain that the correct file is being pointed at, so I am guessing it is something to do with the cache.

 

The issue is resolved when I run the swf in the browser. I also changed it from using the URL for the image to a aspx page that sends back the image as a file stream. I will need to test in a few browsers to make sure that it works for all of them (only worked in Chrome so far).

 

Thanks for your input.

In case your're loading images from a webserver and want to prevent images from being chached you can always set the noCache property to true. This could rule out that it is a caching issue or not.
