FLASH: Newer Netscape plugin breaking ASP access?

[DeJarnett, Gary]

My Flash application was creating dropdown menus dynamically by pulling in

the necessary data from a mainframe database.  For my database access, I’m

simply doing a Load Variables into a specific movie clip.  Everything worked

fine under both IE and Netscape.  This morning, a user tried using the

application under Netscape and was directed to download the latest plugin.

She had already successfully used the program under IE this morning.  After

downloading the Netscape plugin and rebooting, she found that the Flash

application would no longer pull in the appropriate data from the ASP page

from BOTH IE and Netscape.


I didn’t think this was possible, but then it happened to a second person

who downloaded the plugin.  Everything was working fine on my machine under

both browsers.  I went out and downloaded the newer plugin from Netscape,

and sure enough, now access to the ASP page is messed up on my machine also

from either browser.


Even when I modify the ASP page so that it just returns hard-coded values

and does no database access, Flash just goes out to the ASP page and never

returns anything.


Has anyone who is using Flash with ASP pages had similar experiences?  If

so, I would like to hear from you as soon as possible if you don’t mind

doing a cc:
