You don't need a guru, just a crossdomain file. Just save this as " crossdomain.xml" and place it in the root of the site (and of course change "yourdomain" to your real domain).
<?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="yourdomain.com" /> <allow-access-from domain="*.yourdomain.com" /> </cross-domain-policy> It's not that difficult and it makes your site more secure. That sounds like an upside to me. -- ~Trout http://www.amongtrout.com On 1/27/06, Bennie Boone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I don't see upside. It just sucks.
