Does this have something to do with security certificate? I can understand that if you run the code from Flash IDE, you may not have enought security certificate auth to allow you to get data from the server, in which case, it will be encrypted..
So I suggest that you try with some other https server (try if you can launch the same https version of the xml file from your own server ) through your IDE. If that too fails, i think its safe to assume security certificate to be the issue. -- Regards --Varun S http://mailvarun.blogspot.com /* This mail was sent using 100% recycled electrons */ _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
