I think, not sure, it is not possible to avoid having them cached.
I think you could use some kind of server side app ( asp, php, jsp ) to retrieve the correct map name with loadvars or better with xml and the load the map into your loader, so nobody could see the url where it comes from .... and you could try to use sandbox security to manage restrictions from loading except from the samedomain 2006/6/7, Mike Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hello All, I have an intense situation right now, and I must come up with an answer ASAP. I wrote a map viewer application for my client, in which my viewer can load .swf Vector Maps from a predetermined directory on the server. >From within my viewer, the users can perform drill-down queries, by selecting contents of multiple dropdown boxes - State, Region, then Lake Name. Paid subscribers, have full access to their maps - but it's imperative that they can ONLY view these maps from within the viewer app. Since the Flash Map Viewer, needs to retrieve these maps from the server using a public URL (unless I am overlooking something), how can I hide these maps from the world - if the outside users are able to figure out which path to type into their browser, and snatch up maps? I know that server-side scripts, can access local resources - like "D:\Documents", etc. - but once the Map Viewer is running from a Remote Browser, how can I bury these maps under some type of file system that is not directly accessible by the outside world (but only through the Map Viewer app)??? Also, once the user views a particular map, how can I prevent the map.swf file from being Cached on their hard drive? If any of you could help me out regarding this, I'd be very appreciative.
