Need some Advice

Devoteé Nov 5, 2009 11:37 AM

This is not an issue with action scripts it's regarding the privacy and secureness in a flash based website.

WIll it cause any harm by giving someone the websites' FLA (just for checking purpose)? Can that person do any harm to the web in future? If yes, what are the possibilities? (online transactions, database info, virus, etc...)

Thanks in advance.

a well-designed flash project won't have anything that needs securing in the fla. that's not saying your fla is well-designed and therefore it's not saying there won't be a problem distributing the fla.

What sort of things could be done to harm using the fla? (by just viewing the fla for couple of hours)

nothing unless it contains info that you want to keep secure.

so, for example, a poorly designed app might have a password in the fla or an email address that you don't want public.
