ActionScript 2.0 :: LoadVars, LoadPolicyFile And Crossdomain.xml?

I have an SWF hosted on one server (let's say, url..),trying load data from a remote server (let's say,url...),in subdirectory /scripts /public/data.txt.In that subdirectory I have a file named crossdomain.xml, with the following content:

HTML Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cross-domain-policy>[code].....

Now this doesn't work. The SWF doesn't get access to data on that directory. It displays "undefined" instead of the expected value.

Notes:It does find the xml file.I know because when I try to load a file that doesn't exist it throws an error that says the file was not found.When the xml file is on the root directory (and there's no need to call the loadPolicyFile function),it works perfectly (displays the expected value),which means the xml file is fine.I thought maybe I need to wait for the loadPolicyFile to complete,but according to Adobe's help documents, all loading processes wait for the loadPolicyFile process to complete before rejecting a connection .Perhaps I used the loadPolicyFile function wrongly somehow,but I find it unlikely, since I copied the syntax from Adobe's help documents.
