Hi Guys. This is my first post but i have been using your resource for a while now, its really helpful, thanks!

I am an old chap, not really used Flash so much but i am learning (albeit slowly), i was hoping someone could offer me a solution to this problem…

On my web site, i would like to load some external FLV files, so that they play as soon as the page loads. I would probably load them into a movie clip, or just directly into the site, either way i dont mind. The catch is, can they be randomly selected from a folder external to the site at the site’s route?

I am sure it is possible, i just can seem to figure it out, can you help?

Thanks,

Ray.
