[cfaussie] Re: cf clustering problem with flash

[Brett Payne-Rhodes]

The crossdomain.xml file tells flash whether or not it can access the 
resources (images, etc) within the domain. You don't need one for flash 
apps running in your domain but flash is quite picky about it and even 
subdomains cannot access parent domains without the correct permissions 
specified. I'm not entirely sure of the details and now that I've tried 
to define it's function maybe it isn't related to your issue...

Anyway, here is the content of a crossdomain.xml file that will give any 
flash app from any domain access to the resources on your website:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy
  SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd";>
<cross-domain-policy>
  <allow-access-from domain="*" />
</cross-domain-policy>
The file goes in the website root directory.

Could it be something to do with flash permissions, ie your

Of course this is a 'CF' list so I know bugger all about flash ;)

Brett,
what is the crossdomain.xml file and what does it do?  It's obviously not a 
flash issue, but looks like something to do with mime types in IIS.
