Webservices and https

[siituser]

Is it possible to make a webservices connection over https? I have created an app that uses webservices over http but I can't seem to create a connection in Flash using https...

Make sure that ALL the flash files used in the call are in the HTTPS directory?

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!

I haven't gotten that far (putting all the files in place)as I was just wanting to create a webservice connection via the wizard in flash. The file (a .cfc) is in there but the wizard says that https connections are not allowed.

I'm playing with the notion of having the cfc located on a unsecure site and doing some cross domain stufff to make it work but I'd much rather just make the connection upfront.

When you look at the HTTPS directory, it's structured EXACTLY the same as the HTTP directory. This is so you can place all the files needed for secure processing (cgi scripts, HTML, etc.) will be on the "secure" side of the domain. You will still access the domain through the HTTP side and when "secure processing" is needed, you make a call to those files using "

HTTPS://".
