Hi everyone,

Is there some sort of additional configurations I need to make to make my flash show up on codeigniter? My flash works perfectly fine when I don't have it loaded up on codeigniter. In codeigniter, the flash is just blank. Any ideas?

Could be a path issue, htaccess issue perhaps... We'd need to see some code to give any advice which would be even potentially useful though

I have a very basic setup:

my view page:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html >
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<link href="<?=base_url()?>/css/default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="<?=base_url()?>/css/thickbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

$(document).ready(function(){

$('#example').each(function(){
var url = $(this).attr('href') + '?TB_iframe=true&height=549&width=884&modal=true';

$(this).attr('href', url);
});

});

Pretty straight forward, but there isn't anything showing. I've checked the source, and the paths are correct.

The flash I'm trying to load up is a photogallery--it uses a loader to extract image sources from an xml file.

You have to set :

Code:
AC_FL_RunContent(

// ..

 ‘src’, ‘&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;player/file.swf’,

‘movie’, ‘&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;player/file.swf’,

// ..

);

Fixing the src and movie path didn't work. Any other ideas?

Might it have to do with some unique way of implementing flash or paths for CI?

I can access my .swf file directly and it seems to be working fine, so I'm really at a lost... I'm thinking it has to do with CI.

Sorry, I think You have to set the paths to :

Code:
AC_FL_RunContent(

// ..

‘src’, ‘&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;player/file’,

‘movie’, ‘&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;player/file’,

// ..

);

I use since long now swfobject ....

tomcode, it seems to have worked somewhat. it's kinda loading the swf file now but i still don't see any of the photos I've loaded up in flash.

here's an example of the gallery:
http://stage.site.net/public_html/player/gallery.html

here's where it doesnt work:
http://stage.site.net/public_html/index....ople/modal

I've just tested it with a different swf file and it worked. I think it has to do with loading the xml and image sources? Does CI affect that in flash? I would think not?...

The flash cannot load the xml file, it tries to load it from http://stage.claritylabs.net/public_html...gelist.xml.

You have to set the xml path to an absolute URL, too.
