I want to send values from Flash to REST Service (Different Domain) through RequestHeader using GET method.

When I use the following code the header values are not attached with the request. Please help me on this

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();

request.url="http://www.myexample.com/"

var headers:Array = [new URLRequestHeader("name", "value")];

request.requestHeaders=headers;

request.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;

var loader:URLLoader=new URLLoader(request);

Most places that need to use a RESTful service with Flash have a way to fake it--Flash can't send the PUT and DELETE parts.

Take a look at the GET example here (URLVariables is the key):

Thanks for your reply. The example is adding the parameters to the URL not adding the request header.

The URLVariables will be handed to a RESTful service via GET. The URL they're using in the GET example has no URL parameters. The information is contained in the URLVariables to complete the GET request (e.g. variables.method = "test.echo"; // tell the RESTful GET request which method to invoke).
