Hi Guys,

I’m having an issue with an RSS reader I’m building. Everything was fine until I uploaded, and I get this error online:

SecurityError: Error #2028: Local-with-filesystem SWF file file:[...]cannot access Internet URL …

I’m no good with rss and I’ve read about cross domain, proxy etc…but can’t figure out what to do. This is in AS3 using URLLoader.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

once your .swf is live online, the sites hosting feeds might have restrictive that will prevent access from Flash files from other sites (like yours) . You’ll probably need to use a proxy.php file instead of linking directly to the feed URL . \ http://www.yoursite.com/proxy.php?url=http://your.com/rss/index.xml”>.

Just make your RSS local to your XML if you want to retrieve info from other web site no need for php, use Yahoo rss they support that to see how its done ,or amid it local to your XML ,you shouldn’t have problem with the cross domain.
