There's an internal limitation, independent of the security
constraints, that prevents a QTZ embedded into a QT movie to know its
location on disk, and unfortunately, there's no workaround

Hi, I'm new to the list so hello to all. I'm Ade.
Can I get a QTZ to find out it's own path on disk? I'm trying to use
an XML Downloader to load a file using a relative path. This works
fine from within the editor, and even Quick Look, but not from
QuickTime (nor, I think, a QCView?). To get it to work I have to use
absolute paths, but I can't see any way of finding this out from
within my QTZ.
The attached QTZ and 2 sample XML files demonstrate the problem. If
you edit the Javascript patch to use absolute paths then it plays
fine in QuickTime player but as it is, it renders as if the XML
Downloader produced no results (a blank box).
More confusingly, this isn't flagged by the "Indicate Unsafe
Patches" option, which I would expect it to.
Any suggestions or guidance would be most warmly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ade.
