Re: FLASH: Flash Functionality Verification

[Helen Triolo]

John,


There are a couple workarounds to the ban (?) on inter-server

communication at the mm technote at

http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/ts/documents/loadvars_security.htm 

-- don't know if either would work for your purposes, but may be worth

checking out.  Also, Fabrice Reynolds posted some workarounds on another

list that you can check at http://i-technica.com/flashlist (search on

"different servers" or just check Fabrice's entries).  Haven't looked

into it further myself so have no other recommendations or comments.


Regards,

Helen
