It would surely save bandwidth and make things easier…

Great move by Yahoo! I hope, Google also starts having crossdomain.xml..

Actually, I’m still struggling. I’ve enabled a loaderContext on my image, yet I’m still getting the following error, the code above, with the loaderContext.checkPolicyFile = true still yields the following error:

SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation: Loader.content: http://www.foo.com/beta/foo.swf cannot access http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1038/1268531562_468c2e72f2_m.jpg. A policy file is required, but the checkPolicyFile flag was not set when this media was loaded.
at flash.display::Loader/get content()
at mx.controls::SWFLoader/get content()
at TestWindow/::dupeImage()
at TestWindow/::dragIt()

Anything else I could be missing?

Now we are waiting for another example of the tileUI with flickr search capabilities. I can hardly wait. I am beside myself with anticipation.

Ooops, nevermind. I forgot I commented out the code that would force the domain policy file to load.

var loaderContext:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
loaderContext.checkPolicyFile = true;
daImage.loaderContext = loaderContext;

Hello Doug,
Thanks for reporting the news…However, I’m still seeing an error with my stuff:
SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: http://www.foo.com/beta/foo.swf cannot access http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1089/1265703777_284e402b37_m.jpg. A policy file is required, but the checkPolicyFile flag was not set when this media was loaded.

Is there something I’m supposed to set with my code before loading the image? Also, the image I’m loading is from farm2.static.*, I assume that the crossdomain file at static.flickr.com would bubble up to farm2.static*?

I know the pain of crossdomain, this is huge for flickr and flash developers.

I’ll raise my glass of Sam Adams in light of your celebration!
