Thanks for the response Ray but that is not really what I am looking for. I don't want to prevent others from using my swf. I just want an way to identify the referring domain when it is embedded. Specifically, I want people to embed my swf from my server on their web pages (hosted by myspace or anywhere else) and have the player detect at runtime where the request is coming from. Unfortunately using php or asp for referrer detection is not an option. I am hoping there is a way to get it from the player. I figure the player must know about the referring domain as it is able to block or accept calls from the page with the allowscriptaccess parameter.
