Hello all,

I’m trying to create a service for data transfer. I know XML connector, etc. allow a Flash client to send and receive data over HTTP. My questions are :

1. Is the data transfer/communication done over HTTP only?

2. If not, what about other network protocols, eg, bluetooth, Jabber, etc.?

3. If not, does it mean there is a HTTP library in Flash so that I can detach from?

4. Can one XML connection handle multiple requests & responses or handle one response only?

Many Thanks in advance.

Best Regards
