    Hello

    I have developed an XML application that works for some users but not for others.

    I have tested it on Win IE 5, 5.5, both plugins 5,0,30,0 and 5,0,42,0 Also Win Netscape 6.0 plugin 5,0,30,0 and Mac IE and Navigator plugin 5,0,41,0

    Now what is werid is that the client can't get the application to work from their network. Neither can my girlfriend on her network. Could this be a firewall issue?

    They both are using Win IE 5.0 and 5.5 with relese 42 of the flash plugin.

    What is odd is that I am doing a load XML, and that is fine, but when I do a send and load XML it does not work for the client. - but works fine here.

    I am talking to a Java servlet via a relative link. With the Flash and servlets on the same server.


    If anybody has any ideas that would be great.

    Ta in advance Gorm

    The sendandload should work fine without any firewall problems. Firewall should only really come into it for socket connections.

    Does flash read in the proxy settings correctly when making connections?

    Thanks

    I don't think you should have to worry about proxy settings.

    If the load command works fine the sendandload should work equally well. The only thing I can think of is that something is blocking the XML post is not getting sent to the server, you should be able to check this is happening by checking the server logs.

    Could you just pass the variables by the get statement doing a xml.load?

    Thanks
