I believe you are right about that. You cannot (as far as I know) pull from the wsdl file without using the proxy of BlazeDS or LCDS, however you can still get almost all the same info via the HTTP Service as I did above. If your host server will allow, you can load LCDS or BlazeDS yourself and use the proxy or you can just use the HTTPService…

Or you could write your own proxy if you have another domain you do have access to.

I know it’s frustrating, but there are lots of ways to skin a cow.

I’m glad you found it helpful.
