I am using AS3 CS4. I used to do this using AS2 CS3 so something must have changed.

Xml :: Difference Between Fixed Path And Relative Path?

Apr 8, 2011

I am displaying some flash content on a fairly standard page. This works really well when the flash, xml file and html page are sitting together in the same directory.url...However, I want to display that same content in another page which is deeper inside the site but outside of the directory that houses the .swf and .xml files as well as the assets.[code]The js files are loading properly but the flash content is not, so I could use a little help getting that sorted out.

Way To Change Relative Path Flash Uses?

May 27, 2010

So I just found out the hard way that the path that Flash uses to load external content is based on the HTML it is embedded in, not the SWF itself. This is a problem for me because I have the HTML generated from a PHP file that is in a folder below the SWF. The PHP has other dependencies that would break if I moved it into the same folder as the SWF.So basically now my dev testing and web versions are separated by a folder.Is there a way to change the relative path Flash uses? Or am I going to have to hack things up?

Actionscript 3.0 :: Relative Path SWF Loading?

Jan 14, 2009

create a flash viewer, which will load various other flash movies. The viewer will be in the root directory, but the flash movies it will load are a few directories deep. Those movies access various sound clips that are in an audio directory relative to each swf I want to load.

/flashViewer.swf
/myContent/someProgram/program.swf
/myContent/someProgram/audio/sound1.wav

It seems that when I load one of these movies into my viewer, the loaded movie is looking for the sounds in an audio folder in the root directory, and not relative to the swf I loaded. Is there a way to set this? I would rather not have to make the changes in each of my other movies to use the absolute path

ActionScript 3.0 :: Relative Path In Externally Loaded SWF?

Oct 14, 2009

I have a flash movie (let's call it B.swf) that loads an XML file which is located in the same directory to provide some data. This flash movie works fine itself. Now, I've made another flash movie, a main movie (let's call it A.swf), which loads different SWF's in turn, including the aforementioned one B.swf (which now would be located along with the XML file in a subdirectory).

To my surprise, I've checked that now I get an error, as the path I specified for the XML file in B.swf is not valid anymore when B.swf is loaded from A.swf. The relative path from which it's searching for the file is the directory where A.swf is located, not the one where B.swf is located, as happened when this movie was executed standalone.

Is there any way to fix this so that I don't have to change the path I specified in the code and I can use B.swf either way externally loaded or standalone?

I go to ActionScript settings > Library path > hit the + button > I type the relative path which should be just tweener.swc or not sure but just a dot (.) or / to get all the classes and libraries from the same folder in which the fla is located.
 
But it says it can't load the swc or my imports don't find the classes.

ActionScript 2.0 :: SendAndLoad Relative Vs Absolute Path

Feb 19, 2009

I'm attempting to use a relative path with SendAndLoad to my php query page named variables.php. Things seem to work just fine when I reference variables.php using an absolute path [URL], but variables are being returned as undefined when I attempt to call the page using just "variables.php." To add complexity, the swf is being referenced in an included page which is wrapped inside another page.

I know the path needs to be relative to the html/php page, not the swf itself. But what if the html page where the swf is encoded is actually being called from within another wrapper? I'm assuming the path needs to be relative to the final page, regardless. My guess is that the php isn't being parsed correctly when called via the relative path, which is the cause of my problem. Can anyone provide any insight? /dir/media/myflash.swf is called by /includes/myincludedswf.php which is then called by /home/final page.php if variables.php resides in the home directory, shouldn't I be able to use the path "variables.php" in the SendAndLoad directive?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Relative Path In Loaded SWF Files?

Dec 14, 2010

I'm building a site that loads in various swfs for each section, which in turn load in videos, sounds, xml etc. Lets call these 'third level stuff'. Does anyone know how I can load the third level stuff into their swfs without having to put full paths in from the Main swf file? I hope that makes sense?! for example. A loaded swf pulls in a video from its own directory, so would look something like:

ActionScript Code:
request = 'videos/video1.flv'

Actionscript 3 :: Use A Relative Path For A Swc Library In Flash Builder 4.6?

Mar 8, 2012

I'm using Flash Builder 4.6 and in one of my ActionScript projects, I have a referenced .swc library file.The way I added it was Project > Properties > Flex Library Build Path > Library Path tab > Add SWC...Here a popup occurs and I must select a .swc file by browsing through my machine and selecting one. Once I do that, it'll display the added library like this:

somelibrary.swc - /Full/Path/to/the/swc/here/lib/somelibrary.swc

What I want to be able to do is use a relative path instead, like:

somelibrary.swc - ../../lib/somelibrary.swc

Does anyone know a way to do this or a workaround to be able to use relative paths for swc libraries in Flash Builder?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash CS5 - Document Class Relative Path & Package Location?

Dec 13, 2011

It seems I have no trouble pointing an FLA's document class to my project's class package when the FLA is at the same root level as the package's top-level directory. However, if the FLA is nested in a sub-directory, then relative paths to a class nested in the package will not work.example package & class location : [url]....

Case1 :
Package location : MyProject
FLA location : MyProject[code]........

If someone can provide an explanation as to why nested FLAs can't point to custom packages in parent-level directories, OR demonstrate how this can be done,

Html :: Fl.video.VideoPlayer Loads Flv Relative To Swf?

Nov 9, 2009

Update: Turns out this is undocumented behaviour of the NetStream class - NetStream loads relative to the swf, as opposed to URLRequest which loads relative to the HTML doc...annoying.I am having a strange issue where loading an FLV file using thefl.video.VideoPlayer class that comes with CS4: Adobe docs hereUsually when loading external content into flashplayer, the path is relative to the HTML page that the swf is embedded in - but when I try and load an FLV using the VideoPlayer class the player looks for a path relative to the swf, not to the HTML (as you would expect).

eg:
My file setup is:index.html (which contains the swf)swf/my-video-player.swfvideo/my-video.flv

Does The Video Asset For A Dreamweaver Flash Player Have To Be Relative To The Page

Jan 27, 2011

I have Dreamweaver CS5, and used the "Insert FLV" function to generate a flash video player. It creates a /Scripts directory with two files, swfobject_modified.js and expressInstall.swf, and it also creates two .swfs in the directory the .html file is located, FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf and an .swf named after the skin (e.g. Clear_Skin_1.swf).

When I have Dreamweaver generate the html code for all this with a relative path, it works. When I give Dreamweaver an absolute path, it doesn't. You can see an example at www.youngstreetdesign.com/staging/flvtest/test.html.

The top is the relative, the second the absolute. The third is something unrelated.Dreamweaver says "enter relative or absolute path here" in the entry where you give it the video's path, and the documentation says that absolute paths should work, so, I'm at a loss.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Target Path In External SWF Not Working Correctly

Jun 5, 2007

Alright, so I've tried quite a few things with no luck. I have a scrollbar that works in the swf fine, but when loaded into my mainmovie container I get this error...
Target not found: Target = "/scrolling text " Base = "_levelO.swf container"

Basically I understand this to mean that the externally loaded movie cannot find the instance name /scrolling text. The code is as follows that I have set to the scrollbar button in the externally loaded swf....

on (rollOver) {
tellTarget ("/scrollingtext") {
nextFrame();
} gotoAndStop("down1");
}

I tried changing the target to _root.scrollingtext with no luck. Also tried _parent.
