something ( I have made sure the pictures are static and do not require a facebook login or anything , they are just user public profile pictures)
I'm really sick and tired of facebook's crossdomain.xml , finally got it working for loading pictures from the server. Now I need to load variables from my app using flash. I'm getting this error.

I'm loading in profile images from both facebook and twitter into a flex application. Based on the answer from this question, I'm loading the domain policy from the redirected url. However, now I'm seeing this error: Error: [strict] Ignoring policy file at [URL] The crossdomain.xml file from that URL looks like this:
[Code]...
The error states that there is a missing Content-Type. How do I get around this? I, obviously, can't update facebook's files.
I monitor (and log to server) most user errors in our flash game. Quite frequently I see security errors related to trying to make requests to a cross-domain URL (usually the Facebook Graph API). 99% of our players can make these graph API calls with no issues.What I think is going on is that the client makes a request, but fails to load the crossdomain.xml file. I don't quite know how AS3 handles this in the case of a failure to load the crossdomain policy file...will it retry for every URLRequest made until it succeeds in loading it, or does it just give up forever?

View 1 RepliesWe're building an app that loads a user's photos from facebook. It seems facebook hosts these images across multiple hosts. Is it possible to dynamically add a cross domain policy, after a Security sandbox violation has occurred?

I'm working on a Flash/Facebook game. My swf and socket server are on different domains, so I have to use a socket policy file. According to Adobe, they have "filed with IANA, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, to reserve port 843 for the purposes of serving socket policy files." Unfortunately, my server has port 843 closed. I asked my server guy to open the port. Here's his reply:
[quote]One of the points Matt mentioned is even if we open that particular port how would you ensure the scores of people accessing this game from their schools, libraries or even people internal to OurCompany will have connectivity on the port. Let me explain, in order for traffic to flow on port 843 from the browser to the smart fox server, the users ISP also has to allow for that traffic to pass outbound from the users browser. It is possible that several users would not be able to run it, is that risk acceptable ?[/quote]
How common is it for ISPs to block port 843? I assumed that, since this is an Adobe standard, that ISPs would now have it open by default. What's the scoop?
I've recently started putting together a Facebook Connect AS3 app and retrieving objects and images through the Graph API.Running anywhere but locally, I receive security errors of the form: SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation: Loader.content: xxxx cannot access url...A policy file is required, but the checkPolicyFile flag was not set when this media was loaded.If I add a line of the form:[code]One thing I'd considered was retrieving the crossdomain policy file on a per image basis, capturing the domain from the image URL before making the image request. Unfortunately, at least via the Graph solution (and I haven't looked too closely at the others), their servers resolve the image url after the request is made, from something more generic like: url...Has anyone found a more dependable means of ensuring that images can be retrieved without security sandbox violations? Or do Facebook maintain a definitive list that developers need to keep an eye on?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to display the profile images from both facebook and twitter. For facebook, the URLs I'm receiving are something like this (not actual urls):[URL]... Which is then redirected to the 'actual' url like this:[URL].. I'm also doing this with twitter, with the same issue (redirected url).
So, when I load the image, it loads fine. But when I close the container that the image is in, then I get the security sandbox violation. I can get this all to work if I add the URL from the 'actual' image url like this:

I have an application that connects to a binary socket server running on port 2234. I use the python policy file server, which I downloaded from [URL], which runs on port 843. If the client app is trying to connect to a socket I can see that the server is receivng the request for a policy file and that it sends it to the client. However, in the client, I get a security sandbox error. How is this possible? And is it possible to check whether the client really received the policy file? BTW, here is my policy file:
<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"><cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="*" /></cross-domain-policy>
How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.
View 1 RepliesI have a basic question about a function I am using that is goes against my logic. It is the showImage function that is used to call up xml images:
[Code]...
the problem is specifically coming in this part of the code, I know because if I set it to a number it will load up the corresponding image. However, When currentButtonId is used it causes an error loading the xml. I'm not sure why since I set it a number and it I trace it and it increments fine...
ActionScript Code:
picture.loadMovie(image[currentButtonId], 1);
titletxt.text = header[currentButtonId];
descrip.text = description[currentButtonId];
I'm using a bulk image loader from FlashAndMath. The code has you send a list of images to load and it simultaneously attempts to load all at once, adding each load req to a list.
My problem is that when one doesn't load and throws an error, I don't know which load request failed. Are there built-in ways to get it to report what image it was trying to load, or at least which of the load requests threw the error? I tried doing an event.contentTarget.content.name and it reports an instance #, but not the name I tried assigning when I called the URLRequest.
I'm using Action Script 3.0, CS5 on Windows 7.
I'm trying to load two external images (thumbnail images) in the loader "see image below for reference", where the full image size will be. However, I am getting this error when testing my movie.

I am loading images and data into flash via XML. Some bits of data are missing an image or just don't have one for various reasons. When the image URL is null flash returns the message TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter url must be non-null. I have been trying to catch this error using IO error event but I am unsure if this is the the correct method for doing this as I can't seem to get it working. This is causing a problem for me because when I add the items to the stage the data doesn't match the images and what I would like to do once I am able to capture this error is push a default image into the _trackArray which i will then use to add items to the stage.

Can someone point me to the right direction please? I have a video asset that is streamed from rtmp. Say, url is: [URL]..I need to invoke BitmapData.draw() on this asset.

I have 2 applications which I wrote in ActionScript 3.0 as client and C#.net as server. These are basic chat applications. Also I have a test website which is running under the same machine with chat server application.
Server application is listening 289 port, flash application connecting to server with domain and 289 port, it can talk with server during working on Flash. But when I put the flash in a html page, the socket connection is breaking after a while because of security reasons.
I know that is necessary to put a crossdomain.xml file on target website's root folder. The problem is here: Yes, there is a crossdomain.xml file like this:[URL]...

I have a chat server written in Java listening on port 6000 and a client app(using an xmlsocket) in Flash 9. I get these <policy-file-request/>. I understand the purpose and I read the one solution about creating a server on port 843 and serving a master policy file but since I do not have total control over our hosting I cannot use port 843.I also tried replying to the request with "<cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain='*' to-ports='*'/></cross-domain-policy>" + "�" but nothing happens.The other really strange thing is that using Firefox the file request waits for the response and does nothing...but in IE7 the file request goes through then it continues to work even with no response, I can send/receive using the socket without problem.Does anyone know a good way to 'satisfy' the file request using the Java server listening on port 6000?

Relating to my four pictures. All of the names are correct, everything is correct, so not sure why I am getting this error.

ActionScript Code:
function loadHomeSlidesXML() {
intro_xml = new LoadVars();
intro_xml.dir = "images";
intro_xml.type = "jpg";
intro_xml.sendAndLoad("files/fget_files.php", intro_xml, "POST");
intro_xml.onLoad = startHomeSlideshow;

When I check it in flash I get an error
'file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Home/Desktop/mysites/photography/extra/undefined'" (Several times)
