Flash not working with resources servers' location different than the server
Cross-domain policy is security restriction from Adobe to secure resources' availability into Flash player.
To avoid flash to be block due to public IP & domain name mixed up into a web page, an easy way would be to set a xml file on the server.
By default, policy files must be named crossdomain.xml and must reside in the root directory of the server.
Below an example with some available criteria.
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*" />
<allow-access-from domain="*.example.com" />
www.example.com" />
<allow-access-from domain="127.0.0.1" />
</cross-domain-policy>
