Thanks for the replies - this is really proving a bit of a nitemare especially as I have never really done any server side stuff of this nature before.
I have asked the client to upload an xml file to the server and the strange thing is, when I use https in my flash file, I get the following error Error opening URL 'https://dev01.maps-ict.com/examspec.xml' Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: https://dev01.maps-ict.com/examspec.xml at test_load_xml_fla::MainTimeline/test_load_xml_fla::frame1() When I just use http, it appears to work. Both URLs work in the browser https://dev01.maps-ict.com/examspec.xml and http://dev01.maps-ict.com/examspec.xml Can anyone shed any light on this and suggest what I need to do to solve the problem.
