Usually, mx:HTTPService is defined in MXML in the following way:
<mx:HTTPService id="accountsRequest" method="POST" url="accounts.php" result="assignUsersData(event)" fault="onErrorLoad(event)"> </mx:HTTPService |
Such a HTTP request works flawlessly in Firefox browser, but in IE6 after first call the results of HTTP get cached and a new call to the remote destination never occur. The same issue is discussed at Adobe Flash Player 9 forums.My solution to prevent caching of HTTP requests in IE is to add foo variable to the url of HTTP Service that equals to the random value.
private function changePage(pageIdValue : Number) : void { var rnd : Number = Math.round(Math.random()*1000); accountsRequest.url = "accounts.php?foo=" + rnd; accountsRequest.send(); pageId = pageIdValue; } |
