This is very good to hear. If any developer thinks they can do the following very easy, please do so and post here to bring more attention to this issue - it is a huge bug!
Step 1: Install apache (ssl version) Step 2: install openssl if you don't have it already, and generate your keys, etc. Step 3: Configure apache to run ssl and non ssl from the same directory. Verify with an html file. Step 4: Install php, configure apache to use it. Step 5: Create a test project that uses filereference.upload, perhaps using http://localhost/upload.php as the target. Verify this works. Step 6: Change it to https://localhost/upload.php and watch it work in IE but fail miserably in firefox. Step 7: Post back to the list that you encountered the same bug. Or better yet, it works for you over https and post here and let us know. So far I have completed these steps about 7 times on different machines. Not one of them worked. If only the runtime's source code were open and I could indentify the problem there. So far only Flex Builder is open, am I right?

One twist that I may add is that we have an SSL accelerator in front of our app server, but I have no idea what that may or may not do. Regardless, the problem still exists for me. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> ups.com, "wizardry_wiz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have looked at the wireshark packets, which is how I know the image > was never posted.
