[RESOLVED] relative path from html rather that swf when embedding

[cancerinform]

You can try using the full URL: http://,,,,

Using the full path is not an option in this case. As the software may be deployed across multiple domains. Neither is using flashvars.

Editing the fla for every site should be avoidable.

Found out the problem!!

The problem is in the html embed. You have to add an extra param with the base dir where your swf is located. this has fixed all my references that were broken.

for instance i would put in my base param the value "/flash/"

this will set the base dir as my flash folder from server root without having to s use the full path "http://www.blahdomain.com/flash/".
