Hi,
I'm trying to create a news ticker object in flash 5.
The .swf was supposed to "load variables" from a distant server,(from an .asp page) ,however, flash has a security mechanism that doesn't allow loading variables from a different server.
So far I have tried loading xml pages from the distant server and failed (I am not sure, but I think that from the same reason).
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
P.S
I can't do the proxy script suggestion in Moock's book, due to security issues(I'll be forced to put my DB connection string on a server that is not mine)
