hi actually, it looks like i'm halfway mistaken. here's my deal: i realized that this is working because:
- i have a website named (for the sake of example) http:// mywebsite.com, that is not a pmwiki site - it's just straight up html - within that, i then have my pmwiki folder with all my pmwiki stuff - i have another webaddress that is directed to the pmwiki portion of my site - let's call it http://mypmwikisite.com i realized that i can grab my flash file from the uploads file if i reference it from the original site: http://mywebsite.com/pmwiki/uploads/myGroup/myFlashFile.swf however, the following pmwiki site version doesn't work: http://mypmwikisite.com/uploads/myGroup/myFlashFile.swf --- doesn't work so, i guess the above is a workaround for me right now, but might not be for others who might only have one address (?) so again, this doesn't seem like the most perfrect solution - is there not a way to grab a flash file from elsewhere on the site by feeding it 'MyGroup/myFlashFile.swf'? sorry for any confusion... a > > [pmwiki-users] flash & media questions > prima at wordit.com prima at wordit.com > Mon Apr 21 21:20:38 CDT 2008 > > * Previous message: [pmwiki-users] flash & media questions > * Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] > > Quoting adam overton <a at plus1plus1plus.org>: > > > flashfile uploaded to a different group DOES work if you give an > > absolute address > > (:flash http://blah.com/pmwiki/uploads/MyOtherGroup/flashfile.swf > > width=150 height=100:) > > > Can you refer to a file located anywhere by using an absolute path? > Or does it have to be within ones own site?
