Thanks Paul, I assume by 'client' you mean your Flash game, right?
If that's so then I think you have a crossdomain issue, but a workaround 'may' be to still use your containing HTML page to send and verify the data, and only use your SWF to trigger the submission of the form using the ExternalInterface class. It might be more than you can achieve given your tight deadline, but it's another option... Does that make sense?

The form has 2 hidden variables and then 3 other variables, name, email and telephone. The flash form submitted the data to the script on the remote server (signup.ashx) fine when running from the IDE as the client was able to confirm the data was added but due to the security restrictions of flash it doesn't work from in the browser as my game is on one domain and the script on another. Any advice appreciated Thanks Paul -----Original Message----- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Chris Foster Sent: 25 November 2010 20:51 To: Flash Coders List Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Advice on calling subscriber script on another server Hi Paul, Are you relying on the other server to return information for you to use in your game? Or are you simply required to send new subscriber information to the distant server?

I thought all was working fine while testing from the IDE but have just realised it doesn't work when testing in a browser. I realise this is probably something that requires a crossdomain.xml file on the other server but this is not possible. I therefore seek advice on if there is any other solution to call a script and pass parameters to a script on another server. The script I am calling is a ashx file which I believe is asp.
