i’m hoping this might ring a bell with someone.
some background: i made a swf which searches flickr for images based on a keyword. the user selects one of the images, and the swf kaleidoscopes the image and transitions between randomly chosen cropped sections of the image (still kaleidoscoped).
when i run it in the flash IDE, it works fine, the xml comes back through, i parse it… yay.
when i export and run it through a browser (locally & remotely) i get no XML data back from the flickr server. the message back is empty.
so i can’t tell if this is a problem with flickr (though i can’t see how the flickr server could distinguish between the two scenarious) or if it’s a problem with the flash 8 security access. i tried “local access only” and “remote acces only” but neither work.
thanks
