In Flex 1.5 I am running a Tomcat server on port 80 which hosts MXML files. In these MXML files I can reference .NET Webservices on port 8888 which are also local. So a sample webservice tag would look like this : <mx: WebService url="http://localhost:8888"/MyService/MyService.asmx.... and everything works just fine when I can my XML from a fully qualified domain name outside my localhost environment. Ex : http://mydomain/Sample/Sample.mxml
I am now using Flex 2 and compiling my mxml to swf. So my question is can I still use the same approach above with compiled swf's or do I have to host them on TomCat. I am also having serious issues with crossdomain.xml and Security.allowDomains, but thats another story. Ideally i would like to end up with this scenerio if possible : http://myDomain/Sample/Sample.html which contains a compiled Sample.swfwhich talks to my local webservice on port 8888. And I wish to reference the MX:WebService like : 1. url="http://localhost:8888"/MyService/MyService.asmx 2. url="../MyService.asmx" and avoid opening my webservice to the world by using url=" http://myDomain:8888/MyService/MyService.asmx"; hope that makes sense. cheers -aly
