About allowing HTTP to HTTPS protocol access between (1 on 1 web hosting)
About allowing HTTP to HTTPS protocol access between SWF files As discussed in the previous section, you must use an allowDomain handler or method to permit a SWF file in one domain to be accessed by a SWF file in another domain. However, if the SWF being accessed is hosted at a site that uses a secure protocol (HTTPS), the allowDomain handler or method doesn t permit access from a SWF file hosted at a site that uses an insecure protocol. To permit such access, you must use the LocalConnection.allowInsecure Domain() or System.security.allowInsecureDomain() statements. For example, if the SWF file at https://www.someSite.com/data.swf must allow access by a SWF file at http://www.someSite.com, the following code added to data.swf allows such access: // Within data.swf System.security.allowInsecureDomain(”www.someSite.com”); my_lc.allowInsecureDomain = function(sendingDomain) { return(sendingDomain==”www.someSite.com”); } About allowing cross-domain data loading A Flash document can load data from an external source by using one of the following data loading calls: XML.load(), XML.sendAndLoad(), LoadVars.load(), LoadVars.sendAndLoad(), loadVariables(), loadVariablesNum(). Also, a SWF file can import runtime shared libraries, or assets defined in another SWF file, at runtime. By default, the data or SWF media, in the case of runtime shared libraries, must reside in the same domain as the SWF that is loading that external data or media. To make data and assets in runtime shared libraries available to SWF files in different domains, use a cross-domain policy file. A cross-domain policy file is an XML file that provides a way for the server to indicate that its data and documents are available to SWF files served from certain domains, or from all domains. Any SWF file that is served from a domain specified by the server s policy file will be permitted to access data or assets from that server. When a Flash document attempts to access data from another domain, Flash Player automatically attempts to load a policy file from that domain. If the domain of the Flash document that is attempting to access the data is included in the policy file, the data is automatically accessible. Policy files must be named crossdomain.xml and reside at the root directory of the server that is serving the data. Policy files function only on servers that communicate over HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP. The policy file is specific to the port and protocol of the server where it resides. For example, a policy file located at https://www.macromedia.com:8080/crossdomain.xml will apply only to data loading calls made to www.macromedia.com over HTTPS at port 8080. An exception to this rule is the use of an XMLSocket object to connect to a socket server in another domain. In that case, an HTTP server running on port 80 in the same domain as the socket server must provide the policy file for the method call. 190 Chapter 10: Working with External Data
