Image Path Through A XML File Issue

apocalipsis19 · apocalipsis19

Hello Community:

I am not a flash wiz, rather I am a coldfusion developer. I have attached a
flash banner that reads two attributes from a XML file: image and link. Image
is the image that my flash movie will display and link is the link that will be
open if the user click on the banner. I have the file banner.html which is has
the follwoing code:


<html>
<body>

<div style="width:550px;height:160px;">
<div id="flashcontent">
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/cigars/include/FlashBanner/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("/cigars/include/FlashBanner/banner.swf",
"mymovie", "550", "160", "8");
so.addVariable("xmlPath", "/cigars/include/FlashBanner/data.xml");
so.addParam("menu", "false");
so.addParam("wmode", "opaque");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
</div>
</div>

</body>
</html>


Then I have a XML file that has the following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Banner alignButtonsLeft="no" alignTextTop="no" autoPlay="yes"
bannerBackgroundColor="000000" bannerHeight="160" bannerWidth="550"
imageRandomizeOrder="no" imageResizeToFit="yes" showBackButton="no"
showNextButton="no" showNumberButtons="no" showNumberButtonsAlways="no"
showNumberButtonsAscending="no" showNumberButtonsHorizontal="no"
showPlayPauseOnTimer="no" showTimerClock="no" textAreaWidth=""
textBackgroundBlur="true" textBackgroundColor="000000"
textBackgroundTransparency="20" textColor="" textLetterSpacing="-0.5"
textLineSpacing="0" textMarginBottom="5" textMarginLeft="12" textSize=""
transitionBlur="yes" transitionDelayTimeFixed="5"
transitionDelayTimePerWord=".5" transitionRandomEffects="yes"
transitionSpeed="5" transitionType="1">

<item buttonLabel="" delay=""
image="http://www.url.com/cigars/images/weeklysale/RPC.jpg"
link="http://development.url.com/cigars/search/sr.cfm/st/1/bc/RPC/cm_sp=Home%20P
age-_-Weekly%20Banner-_-RPC" target="_self" textBlend="no"></item>

<item buttonLabel="" delay=""
image="http://www.url.com/cigars/images/banners/macanudo_allstars.jpg"
link="http://www.url/cigars/search/sr.cfm?st=macallstar" target="_self"
textBlend="no"></item>

</Banner>

One thing that I noticed was that if the images reside in the same location as
my files then the images get displayed but if the images are in different
locations they don't get displayed. My images could even be in different
servers. Any thoughts? Someone having the same problem?

Thanks!

Ysais.

If you're able to see and load the images when they're in the same place as
your .swf, your problem could be a cross-domain issue, assuming the images
reside on a different domain than the one your .swf is on.
