Load Works in Android But Not in iOS

When a user opens my app, I send a simple load command to .NET code which sends back the string "WiFi Connected".

I recently published an Android app using AIR 24.0.0.180 in which that load works fine.

Then, using the same fla, I tried to publish an iOS app using AIR 24.0.0.180 for iOS. The ipa was created ok, but the load did not work.

In fact, the load also failed in 26.0.0.93 & 25.0.0.134 AIRs for iOS.

Then I jumped to AIR 18.0.0.144 for iOS and IT WORKED!

I can attempt to upload this to the Apple Store, but I would rather go with a more recent version of AIR for iOS If possible.

Please help! Here's the code:

//NOTE:  Assume a textbox named WiFi_txt is on stage

Var DotNetURL:String = “Location of .NET code”

var scriptRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest();

var scriptLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

var scriptVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();

var Action_Type:String = "";   //Needed for success & failure handlers

function database_action(actionType:String) {

                Action_Type = actionType;

                scriptVars = new URLVariables();

                scriptVars.type = "BUTTON";

                scriptVars.ActionType = actionType;

                switch (actionType) {

                                case "CheckWiFi":

                                                scriptVars.Dummy = 999;

                                                break;

                                default:

                                                break;

                }

                scriptRequest = new URLRequest();

                scriptRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

                scriptRequest.data = scriptVars;

                scriptRequest.url = DotNetURL;

                scriptLoader = new URLLoader();

                scriptLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;   //VARIABLES or TEXT

                scriptLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleSuccess, false, 0, true);

                scriptLoader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, handleError, false, 0, true);

                scriptLoader.load(scriptRequest);

}

function handleSuccess(e:Event):void

{

                var variables:URLVariables = e.currentTarget.data as URLVariables;

                switch (Action_Type) {

                                case "CheckWiFi":

                                                if (variables.returnStr == "WiFi Connected") {

WiFi_txt.text = "A WiFi Connection Exists!";

                                                }

                                                break;

                                default:

                                                break;

                }

                preloader.visible = false;

                scriptLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleSuccess);

                scriptLoader.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, handleError);

                scriptLoader = null;

}

function handleError(e:IOErrorEvent):void

{

                scriptLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleSuccess);

                scriptLoader.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, handleError);

                scriptLoader = null;

                switch (Action_Type) {

                                case "CheckWiFi":

WiFi_txt.text = "IOError!";

                                                break;

                                default:

                                                break;

                }

}

WiFi_txt.text = "A WiFi Connection is required!";

database_action("CheckWiFi");
