There are proxy and "shim" examples available for download from Adobe (basically, two of the options highlighted above) : [url=http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_16520&sliceId=1]Proxy and Shim code examples for loading outer swf files[/url] That makes for the implementation of two of the options. Let me implement an example of the third. ... Implementation not complete yet, I have to fiddle with subdomains, but I have some conclusions : [url=http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001082.html]About loading outer SWF in Flash CS3[/url] Basically, it could work like this : * Stub Flash loader is hosted at the Asylum * Users register their home domain on their profile page * These domains are gathered as a flat file, or xml list on the Asylum server * Stub Flash loader loads list of all inmate domains at startup * Users who publish swf for the Asylum NEED to add a couple of lines of ActionScript to say "Asylum can load and script my movies" * Script inside Asylum Stub does whatever it wants from the loaded movie : script them, turn their scripting options off, turn some scripting options off - whatever Once a mutual "trust" has been established between two Flash movies across different domains, the "parent", or "stub" movie can play around with the child's script as it pleases. All this is encapsulated in the Flash Sandbox, quite advanced, which does nicely prevent most abuses. So security is a limited concern, since both the uploader and uploadee MUST tailor their actionscript (so there is a will to mutual trust), since there is such a thing as a complex sandbox for Flash, AND the Asylum stub can fully control the loaded movies. Thoughts? [small](Edited by [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/user/6553]argo navis[/url] on 01-05-2008 12:17)[/small] Loading...
