There's no Flash native hack as far as I know. The only obvious
solution I can think of is to call a server script - for example in
PHP something like:
<?php
if (file_exists($_REQUEST['file']))
echo('&exists=true');
else
echo('&exists=false');
?>
Then use LoadVars to call the script, passing in the parameter 'file'
- which is a filename relative to the PHP script. Once LoadVars
returns, if the 'exists' parameter is false, the file doesn't exist -
and so on.
