[Flashcoders] Projector, loaded SWFs and audio files
Quick question. I have a projector that loads SWFs on demand. The SWFs are in a subdirectory called Sections. Each section SWF that loads into the directory loads it's own audio from a folder inside the Sections directory. Works fine on their own, but when loaded into the Projector, the relative path is off as the SWFs loaded into the projector now think they are at the same directory level as the projector and the load audio gets botched. How can I fix this so it works from the SWF themselves as well as within the projector (without embedding the audio anywhere)?

i just read that post again and boy is that thing old... anyway the basic idea is still the same, but the execution can be improved:) On Thu, Jun 11, 2009 at 8:11 PM, Hans Wichman j.c.wich...@objectpainters.com wrote: Hi Eric, are you using as2 or as3? The basic solution is to look at the url of the loading swf, and make your paths relative to that. If you make it a little more complex (but usually some splitting and joining will be enough) you can use something like this: http://objectpainters.com/blog/2007/01/03/where-am-i-relative-paths/ but it's as2. I have an as3 version as well if you need it. greetz JC On Thu, Jun 11, 2009 at 3:27 PM, Eric E. Dolecki edole...@gmail.comwrote: Quick question. I have a projector that loads SWFs on demand.
