And yes, you can use * in this file - simply opening data access to all SWFs out there...

[Flashcoders] Crossdomain data exchange
Hello flashcoders, this thing is driving me mad... My swf (published for flash player 7 under Flash MX) just can't load data from another domain. In our intranet the computers all have fully qualified domain names. On main.ourweb.net the swf is running (embedded in a HTML page, of course). When calling the action I'm trying to implement, the swf sends data to another.ourweb.net via a loadVars-object, using a XML object as receiver of the data sent back - it is XML, but that's not the point - I'm observing the onLoad AND the onData - the received data is always undefined. The crossdomain.xml allows access from * on the another.ourweb.net server (that computer runs an IIS, main.ourweb.net runs Apache) - I even placed the same crossdomain.xml on main.ourweb.net... When directing the web browser to the address the loadVars is sending it's data to, I get proper XML. When running the swf in my browser, all I get is undefined... Somewhere I've read a notice from a flash user, stating that Flash would not be able to receive data from a domain name not starting with www, though I don't think this really is true, since the examples given by macromedia also use (cross-)domains not starting with www... Anyone observed such a problem before? Any idea on how to approach this phenomenon? I'm fumbling with this for 3 days now, but all I get is undefined... So every hint will be very welcome.
