  How to give Flash hosted on www.yourname.com access to data on www.theirdomain.com
    Given that 'you' are the one with the Flash and 'they' are the one with the data:
      1: Create a text file called crossdomain.xml
      2: Add this text
        <?xml version="1.0"?>
              <!-- add as required -->
              <!-- add as required -->
              <!-- add as required -->
      3: Ask the owner of www.theirdomain.com to plant the crossdomain.xml file in the web root of www.theirdomain.com
  How to allow access of your data on www.yourdomain.com to flash hosted on *any* domain or host.
    Given that 'you' are the one with data, which you want to make available to any Flash on any host.domain
      1: Create a text file called crossdomain.xml
      2: Add this text
        <?xml version="1.0"?>
      3: Publish crossdomain.xml to your web root
        For example:
          If you were Dave and wanted to make data hosted on http://hosting.opml.org accessible to Flash hosted anywhere, you would make the crossdomain.xml available from http://hosting.opml.org/crossdomain.xml ;)
          If you wanted to restrict which domains or hosts can access your data, you simply need to change * to whatever host.domain.com combination you require, given that * is a wildcard
            though I imagine, if you're Dave, you'd go for the * ;) making it nice and open.
