A third option, which may not work for MySpace, but is worth mentioning for situations like this, is to embed a loader.swf on the 3rd party server. In the loader.swf, you test _url and if it meets your requirements you can then load your primary SWF file from your server.

Perhaps when you instruct with what EMBED code to use on myspace, do it like
this...

EMBED src="mydomain.com/myfile.swf?id=123"
That ID could be a unique ID to a certain account. In flash you can do
whatever database calls you need and check if that userID has the access you
need. If the swf is called without the ID, then don't allow it.

OR...

I'm not sure if this will work, but you could use...
EMBED src="mydomain.com/myfile.php" - your php could check who the referrer is, and do whatever checking you need, then load your SWF and spit out a
SWF-file type.

Not quite what I am looking for. Here is my situation.

I have a swf on my server. This swf will be allowed to be posted on
other sites such as myspace (if the user that created the account has a certain account type). Since it can be posted on myspace the actual swf
will be in an embed tag on myspace with an src pointing to my server.
What I need to do is once this swf gets called is see what the referring
domain is and see if the creator of that content has an account that
allows embedding on external sites.

if(domain == "myserver" || domain == "www.myserver){
    // serve up content this is on our server no account check needed
}
else{
    // WAIT!!! check if this content creator can embed outside of our
domain
}


I hope I got my point across and I hope what i am trying to accomplish
is actually doable. I tried localConnections domain function but that
gave me the domain of the swf which was on my server not the domain of
the html file that called/embedded the swf.
