You can and (i think) should do both. In my world of flex 3, I have created a secure destination (and channel) in the Flex services-config.xml file and use this for my remote object connection. I can post it if you like.

So, let's say I have a <mx:RemoteObject> in my program... I want it to communicate with the server via SSL, or some other method whereby the credit-card numbers it sends to-and-from the server are encrypted. Here's how it's structured currently: <mx:RemoteObject id="roPaymentInfo" destination="ColdFusion" showBusyCursor="true" source="{'cfcs.dao.PaymentsDAO'}"> <mx:method name="getPayments" result="roGetPaymentsResultHandler(event)" fault="roFaultHandler(event)"/> <mx:method name="addPayment" result="roAddPaymentResultHandler(event)" fault="roFaultHandler(event)"/> </mx:RemoteObject> Do I have to make my entire program secure via an https:// in the URL, or is there a way to encrypt just that one <mx:RemoteObject>? If there is a way to secure just the one object, how is that done? Thanks, Laurence MacNeill Mableton, Georgia, USA
