How to Load a Cross Domain File in AS3
In today’s internet world, web sites are using more catchy and snazzy videos to gain people’s interest and to capture larger market share. In this process site developers are been troubled to check out the stuff from other servers due to security reasons. As usage of cross border data is often a necessity it is therefore prudent to validate it. Thankfully Action Script 3 does this job with ease thus giving the opportunity to the developers to create a link between servers while keeping security intact.
Simply put policy files are basically XML files that essentially grants permission to the flash player to access data from a specified domain necessitating a mandatory display of security dialog. To reduce the loading time default setting leaves policy files unchecked and to ensure flash checks the policy file one needs the checkPolicyFile property to be set as true.
With Action script 3, the procedure is as follows.
//Create an object of Loadercontext which is basically under system class of Flash. var content1: LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();//Then to check out secure link checkPolicyFile property can be set to true. content1. checkPolicyFile = true. x.load(request, content1);
As this command opens and creates a pathway between two domains .
Then you can use “loadmovienum” function to take the stuff from other server by copying | (.SWF file - movie file(flash)).
loadMovieNum(“x.swf”, 1); // inserts at level one.
