Can anyone tell me why Flash can't

[krosshair]

Can anyone tell me why Flash can't send variables to a URL outside of the domain it is hosted on and if there is a workaround solution. Here is my code that talks to a Cold Fusion server on another domain.

on (press) {
loadVariables("

http://www.otherdomain.co.uk/cf_client/cf_mail.cfm",

"_root", "POST"
}
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("thanks"
}


I am trying to process the form on a cold fusion enabled server (different URL) - the server my site is hosted on is not cold fusion enabled.

Any help once again appreciated!!!

It's a security measure. You could work around it by having a script within the same domain which forwards the request to the script on the other server.

Can you give me an example of the code I woul need to forward it?

thanks!
