Number 1 is not really an option if you are using swfobject to embed a
flash app on Facebook, so I attempted the 2nd option.
Any flashvars I added to try and set a new redirect URL were
overridden by the defaults that were appended during the
showExpressInstall call.
E.g. using this code to create params for showExpressInstall:
var att = { data:"expressInstall.swf", width:"300", height:"120" };
var par = { flashvars:"MMredirectURL=http://apps.facebook.com/myapp/";,
menu:false };
Results in:
<param name="flashvars" value="MMredirectURL=http://apps.facebook.com/
myapp/&MMredirectURL=http://myserver.com/facebook/myapp/
test_api_express_install.html&MMplayerType=PlugIn&MMdoctitle=SWFObject
2.2 API showExpressInstall example (t - Flash Player Installation">
The default myserver.com location of the iframe was not overridden by
my desired facebook.com parent location.
I also tried using the callbackFn on swfobject.showExpressInstall()
but it is only useful on cancel, as a success bypasses the open
window, launches a new one (required to complete the upgrade) and
redirects to the default swfobject MMredirectURL that was pulled from
the original iframe location.
Is there any other way to set a custom MMredirectURL for
expressInstall.swf similar to the old xiredirecturl?
Maybe I'm missing something important in the docs/api?
