1. Use cakephp to do this dirty work!
2. Use $html->url() to create your urls... it will create true
absolute urls, even if your cake app is a few levels deep.
eg.
use this as your controller/action path to send to flash
echo $html->url('/images/getImagesForFlash/');
and then in your getImagesForFlash view, using something like this:
&myimg=<?php echo $html->url('/files/images/myimgname.jpg') ?>
Obviously this is very rough since I don't know what models and output
format you're using, etc, but should give you an idea.
Cheers,
Adam
