RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Beta is now available!
If you have a FB2 license it will last until well after we hope to ship our next milestone.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Beta is now available!
Gunnar, although I've not tried this yet, I think that you may be able to pre-authenticate with BASIC auth if you set the Authorization header on HTTPService. I recently discovered that the Authorization header is not one of the request headers disallowed by flash.net.URLRequest (which is ultimately used by by HTTPService to prepare a request to send over HTTP) so this approach should be technically possible. Note that you will need to Base64 encode the credentials from the String username:password into an encoded form. myHTTPService.headers.Authorization = Basic + base64EncodedCredentials; Note that there is an undocumented mx.utils.Base64Encoder class in Flex that we plan to formally document in Flex 3.0.
