I'd look at doing an installer. That would probably be on of the easiest
routes and would be guaranteed to work.

Subject: [Flashcoders] certificate problem in a desktop application 

Hello,

I have a strange certificate problem with Flash8.
I am building a flash app that runs on local computers. The app uses 
LoadVars and sendAndLoad methods to send and load parameters to a distant 
php page in HTTPS.
I have configured the global security panel of the flash player to add the 
entire folder of my flash application, and I have added a cross domain 
policy file on the https servers that says allow-access-from domain='*'
When I run the application within a browser, the security pop-up appears 
asking to trust the https location and once it's done, but when I run the 
.exe file created with ZINC, no pop-up appears and the http status sends a 
flash error message.
I have dicovered that I must install the certificate on my computer in order

for my application to work properly.
But can I ask every end user to manually install the certificate ? I think 
it's not really secure to let them know about the https adress nor elegant 
to make them do this.

My questions then are :
Is there a way in Actionscript to make the security pop-up appear within the

exe application ? Or is there a way to build an installer with ZINC and 
configure it so that it installs a certificate (.cer) on the destination 
computer ? or is there a more simple solution ? Will the registration of the

https location solve my problem ?

Best,
Celine
