DESPERATELY NEED SOME HELP

Hello!

I am using Dolphin on my website http://www.EderFan.com

There is a flash section on the welcome page that I would like to replace with a custom flash item that will allow the fans to preview Linda's new album. As a stand alone item, it works fine.

http://www.ederfan.com/tosom.html

Now, the way it works in the script is that you have to embed the flash item into an html file that then becomes a template for the PHP to call upon for displaying the content.

Now I can get the MP3 player to show up just fine. However, IT WILL NOT LOAD THE PLAYLIST FROM THE XML FILE

As long as its on its own its fine - the minute its pulled via PHP - done

Suggestions?

Thank You!

S

Are you using absolute paths to reference the XML file? Relative paths might break if you're loading the flash file from a different html file.

I was using an http:// path as I'm not sure what file or folder its writing the template to.

Do I need to be directing it from the root on a full server path?

Thanks,

Steven

I'm not too knowledgeable in Flash, so I might no be much help. I do know however that by default, a Flash file does not have access to the Internet at large. You have to enable it in Flash somewhere & perhaps in the Flash plugin as well. Is the XML file on the same host as the Flash file?
