Question

As the title says im trying to load Facebook profile images into flash using AS3,
now im pretty far with this but i hit a blockade.

for some reason this id will load:
id: 522015860
url: https://graph.facebook.com/522015860/picture

and this id doesnt load:
id: 100001202215171
url: https://graph.facebook.com/100001202215171/picture

Now notice the “10000” in front of the last one, every id that has this 10000 in front
of it, i am unable to load.

Code Example:

private function LoadFacebookImage(id:int):void
{
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, FacebookImageLoaded);
    loader.load(new URLRequest("https://graph.facebook.com/" + id + "/picture"));
}

More info:
Im obtaining the friends list of the current user through some PHP a friend of mine wrote, and accesing their ID’s, which i use to load their profile images.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Kind regards,

“How are you storing the ID’s? A int may not be able to fit that big of a number. – by grapefrukt”

You are totaly correct, the ID was to large for an int.
