Hello.
We are trying to develop web-based jabber-client and first choice was Flash. Due to its clustering capabilities ejabberd is the best for us, but here we stuck with Flash non-compatibility with XMPP specification. Flash-hack (http://www.ejabberd.im/flash-hack) doesn't work for us, so we tried to switch to Flash 9 and AS3 - it is reported here that null-terminated bug is fixed in this version. No success, we still saw long vertical string of bytes and error in connection.
So, I'm asking anyone who have experience in this field: is there any success story using Flash 9 and ejabberd (1.1.2)? Any examples of working open-source flash client or just working code to succesfully connect to server?
Or should we switch to ajax/java/anything_that_works?

Would you mind sharing the complete error message? It might be comprehensible to some ☺
No success
It was unrelated, tkabber issued the same string, but connected succesfully. We were using XIFF AS3 with XMPPSocketConnection.
Actually I'm asking on behalf of developer, being admin I can hardly explain methods in code that was used. However we sniffed traffic and discovered that ejabberd properly closes stream (< / stream:stream > ) right after its reply with authentification methods, as if client put some data after initial xmpp-request.
So I wonder if it is fault of XIFF or just bad code we are using - therefore we need some working example.
Patch
Have you any plans to modify your patch for 1.1.2 or latest svn version of ejabberd?
