    Hi, I was wondering how you would go about setting first param of the SWFObject as a fullpath.

    var address = "http://www.mysite.com/indexNew.swf";
    var so = new SWFObject(address, "indexNew", "100%", "100%", "8", "#FFFFFF");
    so.addParam("scale", "noscale");
    so.write("flashcontent");

    When I try the above code, it ends up performing a redirect, as soon as the page loads, it goes directly to http://www.mysite.com/indexNew.swf

    Can anyone help me with this?

    Brekk.

    There is not reason that I know of that would cause a redirection on full path definition. I have seen many projects using code similar to the above. You can try copying one of the exmple pages from the swfobject examples and replace it with your full path. I think you'll see it working as intended

    Can you please post your full HTML page so we can see what else is going on?

    Hi Aran,

    Here's the code right now.

    <?php
    session_start();
    if(empty($_GET['artist'])){
    $redirect_value = "none";
    } else {
    //first variable in the post
    $artist = $_GET['artist'];
    if(!empty($_GET['project'])){
    //second variable in the post
    $project = $_GET['project'];
    } else {
    $project = "home";
    }
    //third variable in the post
    //$artwork = $_GET['artwork'];
    //command will default to xml unless it is one of the three other main treelocations
    $success = true;
    if($success == true){
    $artist_directory = "artists/" . $artist . "/" . $artist . "_xml.php";
    $redirect_value = $command . ":" . $artist_directory . "$" . $project;
    } else {
    $redirect_value = "none";
    }
    }
    //store the variables within the session.
    $_SESSION['redirect'] = $redirect_value;
    //echo "artist=$artist&project=$project<br />";
    //echo $redirect_value;
    ?>

    so.write("flashcontent");

    // ]]>
    </script>

    </body>
    </html>

    After a bit of tweaking, it no longer redirects, but it doesn't load the pages that I want (for the most part. To clarify that, I'm trying to implement clean URLs (tutorial here: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/php/clean_url_pg1.htm) , and if the url is www.mysite.com/firstvar , everything works fine, but if I try anything that ends with a / such as www.mysite.com/firstvar/ or www.mysite.com/firstvar/secondvar , it loads the page, replaces the div like it should, but doesn't display any content.

    Thanks for the prompt reply.

    Hello, I am also trying to implement clean urls. I have the same problem, my swf won't show up when the second "variable" or an extra backslash is typed in the url. I am wondering if this is an issue with the flash player or swfobject or neither. Have you found a solution or do you have any further thoughts on the subject?

    Sorry for the dealy (and possible confusion). When I asked for the full HTML page I was actually meaning a link to the live page.
