CSCte67952 - DMD: RSS will not work after upgrade to 5.2
Symptom:
--------
The RSS ticker is not showing some content after upgrading to 5.2.
This is because DMD in version 5.2 uses Flash to display the RSS ticker.
And the Flash 9 and 10 player has built in security to not allow content
from another domain.
This security feature is blocking the content.
Workaround:
-----------
There are several options available:
1: Only use RSS feeds from sites that allow cross site scripting.
2: Use a service line "Yahoo Pipes" service that acts as a proxy. This
will result in a a new URL that can be used in the DMD, bypassing
any cross-site scripting.
Additional Note:
----------------
If you use the standard RSS feed in the Signage Design tool, it will work
with any RSS feed you have and you don't need a crossdomain policy file.
Cross Domain refers only to Adobe Flash Player and the ability to read content
from other domains. Its a security issue
As an example:
If your SWF file is hosted on www.cisco.com/flash/myflash.swf
And that SWF want to read any content (xml, rss, etc..) from rss.cisco.com/myrss/xml
That is allowed
If that same SWF file tries to access data on www.google.com/somedata.xml
That would require a crossdomain.xml at cisco.com/crossdomain.xml that lists google.com
This allows the Flash player to access content at google.com
