Link Question

["Davidson, Jerry" <Je...@Illinois.gov>]

The link between the application SWF file and the HTML file is reported as broken, but I can't see why.  Both are in the same directory:

                <!--[if !IE]>-->
                <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="SNAPCalc.swf" width="100%" height="1325">
                    <param name="quality" value="high" />
                    <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
                    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
                    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
                <!--<![endif]-->
Where the SNAPCalc.swf is in the same directory as the HTML file.  Using FF for this test.

Thanks

You mean Flex Builder ? We use Flex Builder to build the .swf but our 
own .html files.
There's an option in the project settings to not overwrite files in the 
target folder that enables you to modify the wrapper HTML without 
causing any problems.

TBH both Builder and Dreamweaver have had very outdated Flash embed 
support since they were released, and Builder is (fairly sure) never 
going to see a major update.

I see it in the IDE.  It is the bin-release version (as opposed to the bin-debug) of the HTML file that has the "broken" link.

This is the default Flex files, should I be changing them?

Thanks,
Jerry

What reports it ? How ? Can you request the wrapper HTML and .swf files directly ?

I'd also consider switching to a more modern embedding system, like SWFObject.
