Yes flash in Internet Explorer has serious problems with self signed or 3.
party ssl certificates. If the certificate is a valid one (by Verisign) there
are no issues.
The problem is actually that when flash makes the request through IE the
browser thinks the https page is already expired when it receives it and
therefore it won't return it to flash.
This is only an issue in Internet Explorer but it can be fixed if proper cache
headers are being set on the serverside.
In JAVA/JSP the following extra cache headers solved the problem for me :)
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-store");
response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-store");
Hope that works
Martin

Emne: Re: [Flashcoders] certificate
I have had some issue's with certificates and flash.
I use charles which is an http proxy to intercept the requests between the
browser and the server to figure out what the issue was. 1st test is really to
create an html page and call your webservice using a form post and make sure
the certificates are working within the browser and the webserver BEFORE you
try and use the service from flash.
There is cheap http proxy thats better than charles but I forget who created it.
ah, here is the link http://kevinlangdon.com/serviceCapture/
