Socket servers must open a connection with a client using a port. Ports are numbered 0 to 65535. Flash requires the port number must be greater than 1024. Flash also requires that the server’s domain be the same as that of the site, same as a normal data connection from Flash. Standard issues with XML, such as being unable to use XML objects anywhere but the _root, still exist with XML socket data, the only difference between XMLSocket data and XML data is the way that it is retrieved.
