Hi, I am using the Flash 8 filereference API for an administrator module of a web application. The Server Side Script is done in DotNet
The script on Oinam was of great help to understand the upload functionality... http://blog.oinam.com/archives/2005/08/flash-8-file-upload-download/ I've rather used a slightly different technique, but it seems to work perfectly fine on a machine without any user or windows authentication. The application however doesn't work when I deploy it on a read-write box with an authentication popup. As soon as the Upload method is triggered, I get a windows authentication popup and even after using the correct username/password the application freezes. - I have found the following information on the Flash 8 Help, but frankly couldn't make much sense outta it, could you guys please tell me how I can solve this. /// --- From Flash 8 Help --- /// Note: If your server requires user authentication, only SWF files running in a browser--that is, using the browser plug-in or ActiveX control--can provide a dialog box to prompt the user for a user name and password for authentication, and only for downloads. For uploads that use the plug-in or ActiveX control, and for uploads and downloads that use the stand-alone or external player, the file transfer fails. When using this method, consider the Flash Player security model: Not allowed if the calling SWF file is in an untrusted local sandbox. The default is to deny access between sandboxes. A website can enable access to a resource by adding a cross-domain policy file. /// ---------------------------------- /// Regards, VARUN SHETTY | M P H A S I S - Usability Engineering Team | IT SERVICES MOBILE: 9820566021 | OFFICE: 56969200-EXT:333 LEELA BUSINESS PARK | ANDHERI | MUMBAI | www.mphasis.com _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
