Your Flex app is running inside a web container so it uses the same authentication mechanism. So as an example if you have a remote object in your Flex app, call the setCredentials() method on it (passing username and password) and it will authenticate the user or fail. There is a section on security in the FB docs, take a look at that, it gives you some of the details u need. Dimitrios Gianninas RIA Developer Optimal Payments Inc.

I currently have a JSP page which handles all the authentication. I have just developed a FLEX app and I need to authenticate against my system before being able to use the API. Is there an easy straight forward way that I can push the user name and password to the JSP page? How would I handle the response (authorized or declined)? Maybe use a frame? Any ideas on how to implement this would be greatly appreciated! -phil -- WARNING ------- This electronic message and its attachments may contain confidential, proprietary or legally privileged information, which is solely for the use of the intended recipient.
