SWF file displayed but xml data not loading into the swf embedded in aspx page

Question

the flash map calls the xml external file which contains data the map shows in firefox and works a treat but wont show any of the xml data Help

Answer 1

The problem with it not displaying in IE is due to the embed code, in your index.aspx page, make sure that the embed code matches, currently it doesn't:

  <param name="movie" value="Index.aspx_files/FlashMap.swf">  

  <param name="quality" value="high">

   <param name="flashvars" value="file=/Controls/Home/menuworld.xml">  

   <embed src="Index.aspx_files/FlashMap.swf" quality="high" flashvars="file=/Controls/Home/menuworld.xml" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="835" height="235">

The paths "VALUE" need to match, FIREFOX used the src in the embed tag, IE uses the value in the param tag, that’s why it didnt work in IE

Answer 2

Most likely you need to use a proxy for your xml data. It will not display if it comes from an outside domain due to a "sandbox security violation".
