Hello all. This is my first post on the group, but I'm a regular member of the FlashNewbies list. I'm a fairly new Flash developer using Flash 8, web player 9, and IE6. Hopefully the members of this list can offer some guidance with a problem.
Background: I've been asked to review some old Flash 5 or 6 code from another developer built in 2001 or early 2002. The code is completely undocumented and the original developer is unavailable. The FLA and AS files load a few external JSP files and produce a detailed graph from those files. On an HTTP server the files work as expected and have been working properly for several years. Problem: Recently the web team moved the files to an HTTPS server. The background graphics load normally but the external data is completely blank. I have access to the FLA and AS files and have reviewed the code. Being a new developer I can't detect any obvious problems with the FLA or AS files. The external data files are referenced by name only, not by an explicit file path. I have been assured by the web team that the necessary files are all present and located within the same folder. Question: Are there any known compatibility or security problems between Flash player 9, AS1 code and using HTTPS servers? Any ideas what might be causing this problem? I do not have direct access to the servers so I cannot give specifics about how the servers are configured, but I can forward questions to the web team. Also, the code is proprietary so unfortunately I'm not able to post or share the actual code. Any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.
