Hi Abdul,

I think I'm in the same problem. I have set a cookie to maintain JSESSIONID in my application, it works fine in Flash Lite 2.0 or 2.1 over HTTP, but it doesn't work on Flash Lite 3 or over HTTPS.

I'll send this feedback to the adobe team in order to try to get an answer... I don't know the reason behind this decissions..

@Tony i know what you mean. It's frustrating. I faced it with Flash player, thats wher as3httpclient was born.
But its same with flashlite.
Twitter app, i wrote for flashlite 2.0, crashes in flashlite 3.0. I just run the same swf :-)

I have come across this exact same issue.
Working with Flash Lite 3 Standalone and a RoR backend, authentication was pretty much impossible because I could not reliably set authentication headers on a get request(but I could on a POST),very strange. The backend is dependent on set a cookie, and because of this problem, it never gets submitted back on subsequent requests. This has been a huge headache for me, and I have already mentioned it to the Flash Lite team.
