Thanks Pamela, The url is of the form app:/reprieve/content/maps when it is called within Air - when I load the same swf in a web page the url is of the form http://www.reprieve.org.uk/rep... and so works with the key I am using.
The same goes for using the javascript api when trying to use it in an Air/Ajax app. Is there any way of getting a key for a app:/ url or getting the maps API to notice the url parameter with the url to the application download (as it seems to if I compile it as a standalone Air/flex app)? -- Marc Sutton www.codev.co.uk On Jul 30, 2:41 pm, "pamela (Google Employee)" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Marc- > > If you can check the HTTP headers that are being sent when the AIR app > loads, you should be able to see the URL parameter that the SWF sends > for key checking.
