FLASH: HTTP Requests through a proxy server?!?

[Branden Hall]

Hey folks... got a question for anyone out there who has ever done any HTTP

requests with either Flash or Director standalone

EXEs...

I am doing a HTTP request for authentication purposes for a client project.

They have been saying that the EXE will not work for them (the web version

will however)... come to find out, they are all going through a proxy

server.  DOH!

So... my question is this, does anyone know if it is possible to do a proxy

connection with Director or Flash.... and if so how?

My only idea is that it might be possible to append all of that info on the

actual URL, but I have no clue how that would be formatted if it is actually

possible.

Thanks in advance!
