XMPP is an open standard protocol for instant message service. Actionscript 3.0 is a client side programming language. In this post we will try to make an xmpp chat client which not utilizes TLS connection, so we will able to connect to some servers providing non-TLS connection such as jabber.org, igniterealtime.org, etc. To begin we need some requirement to use:

  1. XIFF, an xmpp library for actionscript 3.0
  2. Openfire, an xmpp server (for testing your app locally)
  3. Flash Builder 4 or any equivalent flex editor (FlashDevelop, netbeans+flexplugin)
  4. This sample project, right click to view source

You can see the result here.

Comment, question, and suggestion are welcome.
