I’ve got a bit a general troubleshooting question for all you php/flash gurus out there…
here’s my problem:
I’ve recently updated my site with a database and some php. The flash movie retrieves 16 links from a database and puts them in an array.(thanks to some pointers from members of Kirupa)
And so far so good. The site is up at www.mawoosh.com and so far has worked perfectly for me everytime.
However I’ve had a baffling report of the site not working recently.
As far as I can tell, the user is getting an “undefined” error instead of the links in the array. It seems that she is getting the same problem everytime and cannot get the site to work properly…
I know this is very vague, but what I don’t understand is how can the same site work for me and a lot of other people, but return undefined variables for one user?!
Could this be a problem with the flash version?
But the swf is published with flash detection for flash player 7, so I don’t see how that could be a problem, she wouldn’t be able to see the page at all if she didn’t have flash 7…
Does anyone have any ideas, however unlikely as to what kind of thing could cause such a situation!
I’m also a little worried that this might be happening more often, so I’d be really grateful if people could test visit the site and click on a few of the dots there. The dots are linked to external sites and a few holding pages. If an actual website comes up rather than www.mawoosh.com/undefined not found error then all is good. (dont worry this isn’t some really convoluted way to get extra traffic, trust me!:P)
wow, long post, hope people made it to the end! I put the important bits in bold for those on a tight schedule!
Thanks a lot for your help!
