How do I set a header on the request generated by FileReference?

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/FileReference.html

How do I add my own request header to the POST requests generated by FileReference.upload()?

You can UrlRequest as before but you use a helper class to send the content of the file. Here is the answer:

Just had a same problem, use file upload via URLLoader, and use zehs solution to setup headers.

Just put your file inside of request.data, and setup method to POST.

In short, no.

From the docs:

The requestHeaders property of the URLRequest object is ignored; custom HTTP request headers are not supported in uploads or downloads.

EDIT: just fixed some specifics.

Have you tried created an URLRequest with its own URLRequestHeader entries?

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.example.com/post.php");
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

var header:URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader("pragma", "no-cache");
request.requestHeaders.push(header);

fileRef.upload(request);
