Is it possible for an Adobe AIR application to connect to a remove webservice that does not expose a cross-domain.xml file? If so, how do you configure the security sandbox within Air to allow this?
I have attempted a socket connection and received the following error:

What my swf (on mysite1.com) need to do, is that POSTing some php values from mysite1.com (paid hosting) to a file on mysite2.com (free hosting) and get the 100% of the html response. I've started this project in AS2 but I couldn't find a function that get the source of a website, so I recreate the project in AS3 with URLRequest and URLLoader. Everything went fine, I've finished the project, uploaded the file, and there comes the cross domain problem. I can't upload/modify any file on mysite2.com because I can only add pages/posts (like a blog). I've read at least 20 forums about this, but can't find the solution.
I know (from the manual) that in later versions of flash and/or AS, the swf file asked the user for permission (like now for the webcam). Is there a way to do this in as3 or any way to bypass the need of the crossdomain xml file? If no, what is that older flash version that can do this permission request or that don't need that xml, (but still can post to php files and get the whole response).
I'm really upset, because I worked a lot of hour on this, and I was so happy that I could finish it, but I didn't know that there is such a big difference in security between local and online swf files.

The other problem is that I cant use a php file on [URL] like a proxy between the sites, because this thing I want to access on mysite2 is IP address dependent, so each different user of the flash file has to be "tracked" different. (like a visitor counter - if each user of the swf access mysite2 through a php on th first site, they are tracked as 1 user (because they are tracked with mysite1 IP address))
I am working on Adobe air for making a cross-platform project which is running on iOS, Android, Mac and windows. I have a plan to make it runnable on web as well. I am looking for the best approach for making artwork for this project as it is crossed platform. Right now I am thinking to separate backend logic from front-end i.e put layout for every platform separately.

My swf works fine when previewed locally but because of flash cross domain issues (link below) doesnt work live. [URL] Ive used a 'crossbrowser.php file to .load in xml but am not having success with the sendAndLoad command. [URL]

View 3 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 RepliesWhen i run it in Flash Builder (debug mode) the remote object called successfully. but whenever i build the application (AIR application), then the remote object will return no result nor fault, the busy cursor is showing about 3 seconds. then no clue at all. how to get advance fault or something than regular fault event or result event? or anyone have the same experience?
UPDATE: Actually it was failed only for ONE service method, for other method (some of them took longer time to call) the service call is work fine. CASE SOLVED So the problem was not on the service call, but on my result conversion that cause the advanced datagrid failed to render.
I'm new to Flex/AS3. I've attached an example line chart below. I want to know if this type of graph can be created using the standard line-series chart available in Flex (Flash Builder 4.6), or whether there's something drawn below that is non-standard and would therefore require some rather involved customization. The key features are:
-Different line styles and colors (dashed, dot-dash, solid, thick, thin, opacity)
-Placement of units (y-axis "seconds" and x-axis "Hz")
-x-axis zoom/pan control bar below graph (move knobs in and out to set x-axis min and max plotted values)
-Log x-axis scale, linear y-axis scale
-Data Tip (or, some call it tool tip, not shown below)
-SI units for x- and y-axis tick labels.
My guess is that everything should be pretty standard to accomplish using Adobe's built-in charting (with the possible exception of item 6, see below). Is that a good assumption?I'm particularly concerned about the x- and y-axis tick labels (item 6). For example, the x-axis tick marks as a number would be:1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, 10000000 but they need to be replaced with SI units, where k=1000, and M=1000000, so the corresponding marks would be (replacing the numbers above with the strings below)"1", "10", "100", "1k", "10k", "1M", "10M".The same goes for the y-axis, where p represents 1e-12, and n represents 1e-9.I can create an algorithm that accepts a number and outputs a string to do the SI unit conversion. But given that, is there a way to easily manage the tick mark labels to replace the default numbers with such strings?
any one have a snip of code to allow the flash player to acess a cross domain policy file. i have one but its for as2 i tried it in as3 and it throws me errors.
View 4 RepliesI have moved a web application from old domain to new domain. I cannot get Flash to engage. I have changed the domain in flash_images.php file to the new domain. I have a flash_box.swf file and I have a js file these are the only flash components that I see--old domain is e.g. www.example.com new domain is [URL]..I am not a flash developer, how do I get flash to work on the new domain?
View 3 RepliesI created an XML gallery in as3 that will be loading images from a different domain.
I have a .swf (swf1) on serverA that loads an XML from serverB. The XML on serverB points to the image locations located on serverB (I need to host the images on serverB because server A doesn't have enough room).
The images load fine from swf1 locally in Flash, but when I publish swf1 to serverA, the images do not load. My guess is that the XML on serverB is not being loaded correctly because I can see that swf1 on the webpage.
Here is how my XML is set up:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<images>
<image src="http://serverB/media/images/image.jpg" title="This is image 1"/>

I recently obtained two different domains that point to a subdirectory of another domain server. The swf file I created does not show up when I use the domains that are pointing to the subdirectory of the original domain.I placed an xml file into the root directory that contains the following code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">[code]....
Nothing shows up. Is there something else I need to do make this work? I created the swf file using CS3.
it's just not working for me I made a crossdomain.xml file that looks like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*" />

i put that in the folder with the php file i want to access[URL]..
I have two swf files hosted on different domains [URL] and [URL]. a.swf is loading b.swf and trying to cast it to some interface. When both of these swf files are under the same domain everything works fine. But when they are under different domains I'm getting null after casting b.swf to the implemented interface IComponent. Both of these swfs are compiled with use-network=true and with the same IComponent.as.

I am currently building an XML Socket Server that I am running locally on my computer. My flash client I build as an executable that runs on your computer and connects to mine via port 9000. I want however, to be able to run the flash client as a .swf in a web page on my website. I have a security policy but I don't know if I am using it right. My server is extremely basic still, it has no admin controls or even authentication or anything, right now it just spits back what it is given essentially, while I test out things and stuff. I just don't know how to handle any cross browser stuff.
********************************************All my code works as is if the flash file is compiled as a .exe from any computer. I have tested that. It just doesn't work as a .swf in a web browser.********************************************The file currently is set to just have the user type in their name and then when they move their mouse, it shows up on all other clients with their names next it it. Basically testing a real time activity updates.Here is my code and other files:My config.xml file:

I'm making a flash-based website which would use some information from a separate domain to update its contents. The XML file (document.xml) rests under one domain (let's call it updater2.net), while the core site rests under another (e.g., coredommain.net). I looked at some literature and I picked the simpliest method utilizing this small .php file (called loadXML.php here) and the A/S excerpt:

does the cross domain policy has to be in the root of the website or can it be in any subdirectoy from which we wish to load images form another domain?
View 0 RepliesAlright, I was told that I need some sort of file on the domain hosting an FLV in order to load it from another domain. Is this true? If so, step by step, how would I go about loading this FLV if I were to say.... put it on newgrounds, and host the video myself. I've posted on the newgrounds forums, but that place is a joke.
View 1 RepliesQuestion: How do I create the ability to load a xml file from another domain?
For example, I am creating an embeddable video player that will play on the domain which the xml file resides and also embedded on other sites. I am to the point where the video player completely works on the domain that the xml file resides and when I embed it on another domain, the .flv plays but the xml data will not pull.
FYI, I have complete access to the domain where the xml file resides.
Here are some snippets of security settings that I have been trying to get to work:
Code from Player:
System.security.loadPolicyFile(domain + "data/crossdomain.xml");
Code from "data/crossdomain.xml":
<?xml version="1.0"?>
[Code].....
I'm getting an error:
Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: http://www.m.com/p/bin-debug/main.swf cannot load data from http://rateservice.m.com/rateservice.svc/.
My cross domain file at http:[url]....
<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"><cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain="*.m.com"/></cross-domain-policy>
using m as alias . how I'm gonna fix this as it should work. I done a firbug test and the cross domain is being found by lash in firebug
I was looking around but couldn't find it where can I add the cross domain policy of Adobe in Apache server. Because without it, its not letting me access my XML on another server.
View 1 RepliesAs you might know, browser's security model does not allow a script loaded in a page from http:[url]... to make cross-domain requests (no AJAX calls to any other domain other than url...).The Javascript file itself could have been served from a different domain altogether (url....) and that is irrelevant. This is the Same-Origin Policy.
Flash also has something similar? But does Flash treat the origin to be the HTML page where the .swf file was loaded or origin is the domain which served the .swf file?
So http:[url]... loads a .swf file from http:[url].... Now .swf can load resources only from [url].... or only [url....? I'm assuming there are no cross-domain.xml files setup on either [url]....
I would like to execute a cross domain http request from a website. Javascript is out, because most browser don't allow cross domain calls. Generally the solution is to use a proxy, but that isn't an option for this project. The other things I was thinking about would be to use Flash or maybe Java. Are there any other platforms that I could use?
