I'm trying to use the REST API from ActionScript but it requires a crossdomain.xml file at mycontainer.firebaseio.com/crossdomain.xml

Would it be possible to add this so I don't have to proxy the requests through a server?

Brad -

Good thought! We'll discuss this internally and potentially add it.

Hello Andrew,

First of all I want to say Firebase is amazing!,  I've also found myself in need of adding a crossdomain.xml file to my app. This because I'm using a resource that is not hosted on ssl, so I always get the error net::ERR_INSECURE_RESPONSE, and I can't find a workaround for this. The resource I'm using is www.waveformjs.org. Thank you so much for your help, I really enjoy developing on Firebase!

Hey Alejandro

After this thread we implemented a crossdomain.xml file specifically for actionscript / flash developers. The issue you're having seems unrelated - it appears that waveformjs.org don't currently have SSL configured correctly - they respond with a *.herokuapp.com domain SSL cert, and so the connection is blocked by the browser because it doesn't match the domain it's being served on. https://waveformjs.herokuapp.com/ seems to be the same app and work with SSL, so you could modify the script you have to point to that, or encourage waveformjs.org to set up an SSL cert through heroku.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for your feedback, it seems the only way to fix this would be adding ssl to waveformjs.org, but since I'm not the creator I can't do much, just ask them to add ssl to their domain. The herokuapp domain doesn't seem to work with what I'm trying to accomplish, https://waveformjs.herokuapp.com/w?url=https://w1.sndcdn.com/ReORUXkB68Rr_m.png

Best,

Alejandro
