Hello fellow Kirupians.
Hope we are all doing well and had a good Valentines day.
Unfortunately I need your help:(
I have a flash banner and embedded the flash swf the usual way. The flash banner has an xml file that loads in images.
when published it views and works fine. But when I incorporate into my site it doesnt load the xml file. I believe it is because on the site i have friendly URLS. so when you are on the home page it looks for the file in home/images.xml. when you are in about page, it looks for the file at about/images.xml.
I believe that i have to pass a param giving the absolute path to the flash file so that it loads. I hope someone can help me out with this as it is really annoying me.
Hope this is enough and clear enough information.
Cheers guys and gals.
