i am sure this is a simple question - and i just can’t find the answer:
details:
i had flash 5 publish an html file and one of the links on that page is to another .swf file., which then also has links to subsequent .swf files…
issue:
all .swf files play successfully when the .html file is in the SAME directory as everything but same files do not play if i try and bring the .html file in a higher directory (even after having changed the paths inside my fla file).
example:
this might help - i’m designing a flash-based cd-rom for use on win and mac. i have an auto-launch program for the flash file in windows so no problem there. on the mac, i want to show the .html file that users will access at the very highest level - so main cd directory - without showing all the dozen other .swf files - so they don’t have to dizzy themselves trying to locate the file they need to launch… so i put the .swf files in a sublevel dir and pointed to them correctly in my main fla file (converted to .html). doesn’t work though, unless i have the .html file in the very same directory as all those .swf files…
is it true that my html file has to sit in the same directory as all my .swf files?
thanks in advance…
