When I execute the (2nd) below code with a wrong url (number '1' added at the URL end), I get the below error. How can I catch this error, in case the url is wrong, so that I can give out an error message to the user ?

Error opening URL 'http://localhost/myapp/cgi-bin/savePlanScale.ashx1?NoCache%5FRaumplaner=F7CF6A1E%2D7700%2D8E33%2D4B18%2D004114DEB39F&ScaleString=5%2E3&ModifyFile=data%2Fdata%5Fzimmere03e1e83%2D94aa%2D488b%2D9323%2Dd4c2e8195571%2Exml' httpStatusHandler: [HTTPStatusEvent type="httpStatus" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 status=404] status: 404 Error: Error #2101: Der an URLVariables.decode() übergebene String muss ein URL-kodierter Abfrage-String mit Name/Wert-Paaren sein. at Error$/throwError() at flash.net::URLVariables/decode() at flash.net::URLVariables() at flash.net::URLLoader/onComplete()


    public static function NotifyASPXofNewScale(nScale:Number)
{
   var strURL:String ="http://localhost/myapp/cgi-bin/savePlanScale.ashx1"
   // CAUTION: when called from website, RELATIVE url...
    var scriptRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(strURL);
   var scriptLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
   // loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT; // default, returns as string
   scriptLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES; // returns URL variables

            trace("Error: Flash transmitted an illegal scale value.");
            ExternalInterface.call("alert", "Fehler: Flash konnte die neue Skalierung nicht abspeichern.");
        }

        trace("Security error: " + evt);
        ExternalInterface.call("alert", "Sicherheitsfehler. Beschreibung: " + evt);
   }
