Thread: DNS Problem???

    DNS Problem???

    Ok, here is a doozie. I uploaded my flash website which consists of 3 .swf movies. One wich opens a new window for the embeded flash movie, a preloader, and the website itself. I got the strangest error though.

    When I test the first .swf (the one that opens the popup) from the server address it works fine. It does it's job and opens the popup and loads the preloader in it...

    However when I run it from the DNS address it doesn't work. The flash movie loads but when the button is clicked it doesn't open the new popup window! I cannot figure it out.

    Check it out for yourselves. It works from this one: http://www3.telus.net/fcs

    But through the DNS it doesn't work properly: http://www.skatecalgary.ca

    It doesn't make any sense. It's the exact same file, same server, the only difference is on one it's being re-directed to the address through a DNS.

    If anyone can help me with this one I would be very greatful.

    Thank you.

    I can get source files to you if you can help me too...

    when clicking enter on your flash site, does that url direct to the right place? I would check that first. If it does and you need DNS help please email me and i can help you

    Anyways, I've been fiddling around with the url part of the code and I'm pretty sure it's correct. I have a hunch it's a DNS problem because it works fine if not re-directed through the DSN. No window at all even comes up let alone the proper page loading. I would assume if it was a URL error that a window would open but it would have a 404 error in it.

    Anyways, I could use a second opinion on how it operates on another machine. could you please try it and tell me if the same thing is happening...

    the one that doesn't work for me: www.skatecalgary.ca

    the one that does work: www3.telus.net/fcs

    once again, the files are exactly the same as the 'skatecalgary' one is just redirecting the browser to the 'telus' one.

    the JavaCode looks like this:
    Code:
    on (release) {
    	if (System.capabilities.screenResolutionX <= 900){
    		getURL ("javascript:FCSWindow=window.open('http://www3.telus.net/fcs/FCS.htm','newWin','width=788,height=540,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,resizable=Yes,fullscreen=No');  FCSWindow.focus();      void(0);");
    	}else if (System.capabilities.screenResolutionX >= 900){
    		getURL ("javascript:FCSWindow=window.open('http://www3.telus.net/fcs/FCS.htm','newWin','width=1013,height=700,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,resizable=Yes,fullscreen=No');  FCSWindow.focus();      void(0);");
    	}
    }
    The System.capabilities part is just to determine the size of the users screen and opens a window of the appropriate size.
