can the developers please add a crossdomain.xml file in the web server root so Flash apps can access the API? e.g. http://api.eve-online.com/crossdomain.xml it's a plain xml file which allows Flash apps to access external data without security errors or warnings. more info about this: http://www.crossdomainxml.org/ |

Sorry for my ignorance as I am no Flash dev but... why Flash needs that stuff ? (In simpler words than the white paper linked on the url you gave). Purely for my own knowledge.  ... oh and dude... your face... |

why not just setup your own php site and have the flash pull that data from that? |

The Flash plugin has a security sandbox which only allows calls from the same domain. e.g if my flash movie is on http://test.com/movie.swf i can only access http://test.com/test.php but not http://test2.com/test.php. by adding a crossdomain.xml file on another domain, you allow flash movies from another website to access your data. Adobe's notes on this: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14213&sliceId=1Popsikle: that's an alternative but most free php webhosts don't allow 'proxy' php scripts for security reasons |

If you use Adobe's Apollo framework, you can bypass it alltogether I believe, and at the same time deploy whatever you build to a server and multi platform clients. Neat stuff.
