- Number one, I can't get my browser here at work to load up the new page- I've cleared the history, emptied the cache in the app, also manually emptied and all caches on my hard drive, etc, etc...<br><br>Could it be because my company is running a proxy of some sort? But then wouldn't I get nothing from the internet until I entered that info in my browser prefs?<br><br>Ugh.<br><br>EDIT: Just checked through FTP, and the issue is that the domain is NOT pointing to the new server here at work. It does at home, but for some reason not yet here at work. Oh well.<br><br>- Number two: this is a Flash/javascript/HTML issue. I have a flash file in a folder labeled 'cat' (for the purpose of this discussion), and the flash file is supposed to trigger a window opening that has a piece of art in it. I put the HTML file of the window in a subfolder named 'dog', so the structure is this: root/cat/dog, with the .swf file in cat and the .html file in dog.<br><br>Now, I set the javascript in the .swf file to (I'm paraphrasing the code) 'openWindow 'dog/.html file width=760 height=420'<br><br>Techically, shouldn't this then open the html file in a new window in the directory 'dog'? Turns out it doesn't work.<br><br>BUT, when I move the directory 'dog' to the same level as 'cat' (root/cat, root/dog), this piece of code functions correctly. The window opens as it should and all is well.<br><br>So, do I have to go back and make the code read 'openWindow 'cat/dog/html file' width=760, height=420'' to make it work?<br><br>I guess within the Flash file, the hierachy doesn't work as it should in the 'real' world...?<br><br>

Sounds like you've already worked through the relative link problem with Flash. I don't touch Flash much so I'm not much help there.<br><br>As far as the DNS issue goes, check with your IT guys to see if your company caches it's own DNS entries. I know a lot of companies, depending on the size, will often cache a DNS lookups to save speed when dealing with proxies or firewalls. <br><br><pre>** sometimes you win, and sometimes you learn **</pre><p>

I'll have to fiddle with different placements of folders and the code in Flash when I get home, but at least the site is showing up as it should at work now...<br><br><br><br>
