*Background:* SWF #1 is published for Flash 8 / AS2 on domain name #1 and loads in SWF #2 (same publish settings) from domain #2. Both SWFs are created using Flash CS4 (I need to stick with these publish settings for this project) and I have tested this using Flash Player 9 and 10.
SWF #1 needs to load SWF #2 as a child movieclip, then at any point after load, SWF #1 should be able to read variables from SWF #2. (Eventually it will need to work both ways.) I ensured that I can at least do a simple cross-domain data load using LoadVars in SWF #1 and a cross domain policy file on domain #2 - that works perfectly. *Problem: *SWF #1 loads SWF #2 no problem, but SWF #1 cannot read any variables from SWF #2 long after loading has completed -- every variable is always undefined. But when testing within the Flash IDE it works fine. Sounds easy enough as these posts describe the simple solution to this security restriction: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001083.html http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001082.html#wp238823 But whether SWF #2 contains System.security.allowDomain("*"), or System.security.allowDomain("<domain #1 here>"), or System.security.allowDomain(_parent._url), or even if I attempt to set up a LocalConnection in SWF #2 whose allowDomain handler always returns true.....none of these work. I could post code samples but they no different than the examples in those two links. Can anyone else get this simple setup to work correctly? Thanks!
