flash and cgi problems

[andy_budd]

I've created a number of flash files that reference cgi script. One references a mail script while the other writes a text file of the data sent to it.

Everything works fine when we test the flash file locally (on our hard drives) however when we upload it to the web server the loadVariables command just doesn't seem to send the variables to the cgi script.

Our isp uses a separate server to store clients cgi files in. when we upload the flash files to this server it seems to work ok.

Now this is where things get a little strange. If we test the flash file that sits on the webserver it doesn't work. However when we copy the files from the cache to our hard drive and run it locally it works again!

I'm currently pulling my hair out over this one. Our isp have been useless so if any one has any ideas please let me know!

That's cause the secure "limitation" of Flash (in some browsers)

The swf file has to be on the same server like the CGI script, that's all!
