HTTPService

Question

I can't get it work from both development environment and the
Internet.
If I use full virtual paths to my ASP pages that return data
it works fine from the development but does not from the Internet
and I am using crossdomain file. Then if I use relative (with
../../) notations it works from the Internet but from the
development no data is shown. Any idea how to get both environments
working?
Thanks

Loading local assets
In some cases, your SWF file might load assets that reside on
the client's local file system. This typically happens when the
Flex application is embedded on the client device and loaded from a
network. If the application is allowed to access local assets, it
cannot access network assets.
To ensure that a Flex application can access assets in the
local sandbox, the application must be in the local-with-filesystem
or local-trusted sandbox. To ensure this, you set the use-network
compiler option to false when you compile the application. The
default value of this option is true.
When you load another SWF file that is in the local file
system into your application with a class such as SWFLoader, and
you want to call methods or access properties of that SWF file, you
do not need to explicitly enable cross-scripting.
If the SWF files are in different sandboxes (for example, you
loaded the main SWF file into the local-with-network sandbox, but
loaded the asset SWF file from the network), you cannot
cross-script because they are in different sandboxes. Remote SWF
files cannot load local SWF files, and vice versa.
