[flexcoders] Cross-domain data flow

2009-06-05 Thread steve horvath
I've got a SWF on my website that loads images and videos from another
domain.  If a client loads my web page and accesses the images, will the
traffic be routed through my ISP?

For instance, myowndomain.com hosts my.swf which loads images from
youtube and flickr.  Some person on their own ISP accesses my page and
watches a bunch of videos and images.  I want to make sure that's not
going to eat up my bandwidth on my ISP.

My guess is since the SWF is loaded into the client's browser it
shouldn't go through my domain.  Is this right?

That's right. The browser will contact YouTube and Flickr directly to
load content from those websites. Only the SWF will be loaded from
your site.
