use absolute paths & setting the base param to / will help in most cases
the most common cause of flash (swf) not working is incorrect paths since cake rewrites controller/action/param/etc/ in such a case the swf will not be found it may be looking for controller/action/param/etc/test.swf the path /test.swf (if the swf is in webroot) I use firebug to see the paths loaded this will provide you with clues to resolve the issue within the app. - S On 11 June 2011 17:30, madusanka hettiarachchi <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi guys, > > I had a same problem like Pouria, when I add a simple flash player to the > cake php 1.3 it doesnt appear on the page, though it take space, it doesnt > appear! is there any configurations to do before use flash with the cake? > > On Thu, Jun 9, 2011 at 5:01 PM, Sam Sherlock <[email protected]>wrote: > >> no example of your code >> >> no description of where your files are >> >> - S >> >> >> >> >> >> On 8 June 2011 22:04, Pouria Almassi <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> I'm trying to add JW player (flv video player) to a view.
