I’d like to know the different methods in which actionScript 2 can communicate with servers. But with the introduction of AS3, most of the info online is regarding ByteArrays and the “flash.net” package which allows any protocol to be built over TCP.
I’m really after ways for servers to communicate to clients (push) without them HTTP polling, and so I need to look into any possible method of client <> server communication in Flash AS2.
