Flash works fine when loaded independently but not on site

Post by legend986 »

I have this flash file:

Code: Select all

http://www.enigmaportal.com/forum/banner/loader.swf
It works nice and loads the file it is supposed to load when I load loader.swf directly into the browser. But, when I put it up in Invision as a banner, it doesn't load anything. I've tried using both Absolute and Relative URLs but it doesn't seem to work somehow. How do I overcome this problem?

Are you using the correct tags...? Try the Publish option in Flash to get some HTML (it's more than you need, but it should work).

Strange... Even that was not working properly. I was able to get around it by using this:

Code: Select all

<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
I can understand this allows it to access external scripts but have no idea as to why it works in two different ways altogether.
