Use a server side proxy, and away go troubles, down the drain. Tracy

Hi, I'm trying to access https webservices from a flex app hosted under http and I'm getting security errors. The full error states that there's a security sandbox violation trying to access https://mydomain:9443/ccx/myservice <https://mydomain:9443/ccx/myservice> So it would seem this could be resolved with a crossdomain.xml file placed at that location, right ? However the location doesn't actually exist on the server. the /ccx portion of the URL is to do with a product called 'Cape Clear' which manages the webservices and it would seem that requests that go into /ccx and beyond are somehow intercepted and dealt with by CapeClear. So there's actually not a physical location to place the crossdomain.xml that I can make out. I tried using the LoadPolicyFile approach to have it load the crossdomain.xml from a different location - but this didn't seem to do anything from Flex. I also tried 'allowInsecureDomain' but again, no effect. Does anyone have any suggestions - any ideas on how we can get this to work ? Thanks in advance, Jamie.
