RE: [Flashcoders] reading a css from www?
You are right about the base path being the html, so you should get to your
css by passing in the complete relative path, so:
'../path_to_css/cssfile.css' when the html is in 'somefolder' en the css is
in 'path_to_css' folder

sweet thanks Benny, this replacement method worked! yaay!
btw, as far as i can tell, the flash file tries to load the files
relative to the path of the current URL, and not the path relative to
the SWF itself...
so if if the HTML file is in:
http://mysite.com/somefoloder/index.html
and you load: ('file.css');
then it will look in:
http://mysite.com/somefoloder/file.css
even if the swf is being loaded from:
http://mysite.com/flash/flashfile.swf
If I am wrong, and the path is relative to the swf, then I am completely
confused as to why i have to use full URL paths and I cant just type
file.css and get it to load when the swf and the css file are actually
stored on the server from the same location...
Best,
Seb.

In your main movie (from top of my haead, i.e. not tested ;-) use
something
like:
var cssFullURL:String = this.loaderInfo.url.replace(/thecallingfile\.swf

trace(cssFullURL);

Hello coders,
Simple question I think...
I have a SWF file, but its location on my server is not fixed, so I
am having to call and load files using full URL paths.
I'm having an issue with loading the CSS file based on whether the
domain being loaded is typed with, or without the www in front of
it.
How can I make it so that the CSS file is loaded from either domain
name?
Cuase right now if I write in my FLA to load the CSS from http://
www.mysite.com/cssfile.css
then it won't load it if the swf is currently playing from:
http://mysite.com/someunknownpath/thecallingfile.swf
Thanks!!
Seb.
