RE: FLASH: calling an external file

[Williams, Marcus]

As long as the file is on the hard drive in the exact same place on all your

viewers PC's, use

file://c:\folder\filemane.xxx

Subject: FLASH: calling an external file



Hi everyone


here's the question, how do i call a file on my hard drive (eg:mpeg).  


at the end of a flash movie there are 2 buttons one which will replay the

piece and the other which will call a video file from the hard drive and

play that (not in the flash piece itself).  But i cannot seem to get it to

call the file on my hard drive.


TIA


Shawn
