I have an air app and I want to add proxy-authorization header whenever my client is behind a proxy. I am adding 'proxy-Authoriztion' header in urlRequest headers but still I am getting the OS prompt for username/password.
var loader:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
var be:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
be.insertNewLines = false;
be.encode("test" + ":" + "test");

I'm trying to upload images with Uploadify but I run into IO error. I have gotdemo and it works on my computer, so I decided to implement functionality of my application to this example step by step to catch the error and discovered that the reason of IO error is my local proxy.pac (I use FF):
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
if (shExpMatch(host, "*.app.local*")) {
return "PROXY 127.0.0.1:3000";

can I make role based authorization when sending requests to an ASP.NET MVC backend system. I am calling action methods and expecting JSON results, however, some action methods are decorated with the [Authorize] attribute, others require some role privileges to be present. I certainly hope that passing authorization data with every request is possible
View 1 RepliesI am trying to access html files protected by basic authentication. Below is the code to do that but I still get the authentication dialog. I checked the fiddler and found that for the first request authorization header is present but for the subsequent requests which is requested to load the .js, css & images the authorization header is not added. This is the reason I am getting the auth dialog.
Is there a way to add authorization header to the subsequent requests as well?

I have Basic Authorization mechanism on the server for WSDL/SOAP. How I can send "Authorization" header through Flex WebService?
Simplified example:
var ws:WebService = new WebService();
ws.wsdl = "http://localhost:8000/api/service.wsdl"
var encoder:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
encoder.insertNewLines = false;
Are there any differences implementing Flex application security in a clustered Java environment (such as Oracle Application Server/OC4J or a JBoss cluster) vs a single application server environment? (And/or does it depend on the specific environment software?)
What considerations are there in a situation where you need to authenticate with LDAP (AD) and store user access information in a database (ex. USER table containing username + permissions/roles info)? Any differences between Blaze DS and Granite DS?
I have an application that is coded using Flex 3 on UI side and java @ the service layer, along with BlazeDS. Now we need to authorize the users accessing the system based on the roles that are defined for them in the database, e.g. : say a user with role guest should not be able to access Admin tab on ui and also should not be able to do any operations other than viewing the data displayed on dashboard. Also the point to note here is that roles can be created dynamically by Super users from UI. I came across this link which describes how to perform Role Based Authentication & Authorization. With this approach I need to define the roles in service-config.xml but since my roles are not pre-defined I cannot go with this.

When using a dropdownlist in flex I'd like to know the exact index value when the prompt is initialized in it.
View 1 RepliesI have a dropdownlist of "Select an employee" which is optional. I need it to have "No one" at the top so that user can change back to NoOne if he' ve already chosen "John Someone".
My question is how to keep the prompt item, or add a dummy item at -1 without changing the dataprovider (I really hate adding "No one" to the original employeeList dataprovider)

Flex 4 Drop Down List - bound with data service, how to always keep prompt or add item at index -1 programmatically
Here is my code:
<mx:ComboBox prompt="" editable="true" dataProvider="{tableSelector.list}"/>
When this code executes, flex just sets the selectedIndex to 0 and displays the first item in the dataProvider instead of leaving the text and prompt as the empty string "". How do I get around this? I need the text property to be "" unless the user selects another item in the combobox.
I'm trying to implement a dragging system which can only be described as similar to dragging the map on Google Maps. I can set up dragging easily in Flex, but unfortunately the standard model of dragging i.e. dragging an element proxy and dropping it in another element is not what I'm after.
Is there anything built into flex where the actual element rather than a proxy can be repositioned in a different place within the same parent? Or will I have to hand code something using mouse events as you would if implementing a solution in JavaScript?
I have a problem using Flex with BlazeDS on a Tomcat 5.5 through a Proxy (Apache). I already searched for it but didn't find answers which solved my problem. I hope you guys can help me out. Our scenario is the following: Flex-App using BlazeDS to communicate with our Dataservice on a Tomcat 5.5.The Webapp is balze enabled and the services config contains channel definitions like the following:
<channel-definition id="my-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel">

So I have a PHP proxy that gets information from a website. Let's say the proxy gets the information from (www.example.com). It checks if the number of lines returned is the same as before, if not then there are more lines, it counts the difference then it need to push this information to the Flex client saying that it has new information, (x) more lines have been written.I am not really sure how to do the push mechanism on the php proxy because I am not sure how to actually push from the proxy to the client, never done it before.
View 2 RepliesAfter reading James Ward's post I'm considering using a proxy rather than a crossdomain.xml file. I have a java app, which includes a flex applet, on one tomcat instance and a java web service on another tomcat instance. Does it make sense to have a single (Apache httpd) proxy handle requests for both the app and the web service, thus eliminating the cross domain restriction?how to deal with the cross domain issue are welcome.

View 1 RepliesIt seems it isn't possible at runtime to change styling defined in CSS files, ex.: colors. This is seemingly because the CSS files are compiled into SWF.

View 1 RepliesIn AIR on Mac, when I send login creds to a service and they're incorrect, AIR displays a native popup window to try logging in again without dispatching an error event. Twitter provides a header (suppress_response_codes=true), which returns any error as a status 200 with the error message. I'm using HTTPService to connect to a service without a header like this. Are there any properties or headers I can send to avoid this popup?
View 3 RepliesI'm having this problem of adding an image to the textArea in RichTextEditor (RTE) on the fly and this image seems to "reset" the html properties of the textArea.
Better explained:
The user starts writing something in the TextArea (with Verdana in size:12 font settings). When he adds an image to the text area, the cursor right after the image gets very small and the font settings are reset to HUM777B in size:2.
How could I avoid this behavior?
It seems Flex adds additional HTML code before the image tag. If there was any way to avoid this I would be able to add my own settings to the tags.
