Geez folks it's been a while since I was here... but I'm learning new stuff.

Right now I'm trying to work with Flash & php combined.

But I have a very basic problem with IE... when I hit reload... it reloads the page but not the flash... hmmm why?? is there a way around this??

Are you trying to replay the animation?

If so, how about adding a layer in Flash with a link which jumps to frame 1 in the animation?

Kind of the opposite to Skip Intro.

No I am designing dynamic Flash pages.

But the flash anim doesn't reload completely when I refresh in IE. Thus the altered bits in flash don't show. I now have to open a new browser window every time I want to see what's changed.

I have a similar problem with my page. I have a flash intro page, which then redirects to the main php page that contains another flash object.

When I load the page for the first time, everything works fine. As soon as I clear the cache and then hit reload, wham, it never loads the new page. It just hangs on the intro page while trying to load the redirected page.

I think this may not be a php problem but something else. I am slowly picking it apart and will post anything I find.

What happens when you hit "CTRL + Refresh" -- does the flash animation load from the begining?

Try adding a header that makes sure that the browser doesnt cache the flash, or make sure that the page has some sort of an expire. Something like:

Code: Select all

<head>
   <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
   <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1">
</head>
