copied!<p>I've had a look and it doesn't seem possible to do exactly what you want to do. If you have control of a server you can route requests through a server yourself ... and Adobe has <a href="http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/tourdeflex/web/#sampleId=13000" rel="nofollow noreferrer">examples of this using their Flex Data Access services</a> (BlazeDS and LiveCycle) to go through a proxy. Then again if you control your own server you can get it to proxy anyway you like ...</p> <p>But I'm afraid there doesn't seem to be anyway to directly set a proxy on the client side using ActionScript.</p> <p>As for Flash respecting the browsers proxy, I can't say I know from first-hand experience but the evidence from searching isn't good. Here is an article that claims <a href="http://coderrr.wordpress.com/2009/07/29/how-to-force-flash-or-any-program-to-use-a-socks-proxy-using-transocks-and-iptables-in-linux/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">flash won't use your browsers proxy setting for SOCKS on Linux</a> and suggests you need to alter your iptables. There is also this <a href="http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-519" rel="nofollow noreferrer">adobe bug report</a> suggesting it doesn't work for rtmp connections at least. Other anecdotal evidence suggests that it works <em>sometimes</em> (for HTTP requests) for some browsers.</p> <p>So if you need to guarantee that a connection goes through a proxy it looks like you'll need to route your requests through a server and proxy from there.</p>
