Re: [Flashcoders] Way to get URL of host page?
The end computer? The client computer of the person with the browser? Try looking up server variables. (here is a list of most of them: http://www.lib.washington.edu/asp/browser/servar.asp) (REMOTE_ADDR and REMOTE_HOST) I don't think there is any way of retrieving them unless you use a flashVars variable and some inline scripting..

Re: [Flashcoders] Way to get URL of host page?
I needed to find this info as well and tried this.url but that only returns the location of the swf not the html page the swf is in. I made a sample to mess around with this issue... I had to use javascript to get the href and pass it to Flash. I do this onLoad but incase the user has popups blocked there is an html link on the page to send the var to flash. http://www.thespikeranch.com/test/about.html Gerry On Nov 23, 2005, at 12:54 PM, Keith DiMatteo wrote: this.url The end computer?

RE: [Flashcoders] Way to get URL of host page?
That's utterly useless in attempts to foil an swf that is used by way of someone else's html on another server... it is good information but can't be used the way that it would be most desirable. Flash needs to have this ability natively through the ocx.. without the dependence of html javascript, and until this is put in by MM, will continue to be a problem for all of us. -Jayson -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:flashcoders- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gerry Creighton Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2005 1:19 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Way to get URL of host page?

Re: [Flashcoders] Way to get URL of host page?
I agree... I wanted a way to display certain content in Flash dependent on what html page was delivered to the viewer without adding FlashVars code to the html page. So what use is this.url if it only shows me the path to the swf? None really. I could be wrong though...in which case I would like to be enlightened.

Re: [Flashcoders] Way to get URL of host page?
As far as I can tell, mochibot will tell you the URL of the host of your Flash movie, but not where it's being viewed. And unfortunately javascript isn't an option. It needs to be completely Flash.

Hey all - if my movie gets loaded into a page at Website A from a server at Website B, is there anyway, from within Flash, to get the URL of the page at Website A? thanks! - rajat -- Rajat Paharia [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bunchball.com http://www.rootburn.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Nope :( If you are looking for a way to prevent this from happening, google for stuff to prevent hotlinking of SWFs. -K On 19/11/05, Rajat Paharia [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey all - if my movie gets loaded into a page at Website A from a server at Website B, is there anyway, from within Flash, to get the URL of the page at Website A? thanks! - rajat ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
