Hi Maurice,

How about sending it in as a URL variable when you load preloader.swf into
the html page?

In the HTML:
<object .....>
        <param name="movie" value="swf/preloader.swf?path=swf/" />
        ...
        <embed src="swf/preloader.swf?path=swf/" .../>
</object>

Then in preloader.swf:
var ojtParams:Object = this.loaderInfo.parameters;
var swfPath:String = ojtParams.path;


hth,
Bob

Subject: [Flashcoders] swf paths...

Hello!
First time on here, so thanks for any advice.
I'm pulling in a preloader.swf file into an html file that sits at root
"swf/preloader.swf".  All my swf's are located in a swf directory that gets
preloaded into this preloader.swf - simple enough.  I'd like to try to keep
my server as clean as possible without having to hard-code the path into the
preloader.swf file and don't want to use flashvars as a way of referencing
my targeted path. Is there another way of doing this?  Of course if I put
the html file inside the swf directory, everything works, but it defeats the
purpose of keeping my server organized. I hope this makes sense and again
thanks in advance.
