ImageLoading relative path problem in Flash

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to load images from a relative folder /media/one.jpg but it never loads, I use the same script to load from my local folder and it does.

The absolute path e.g c:/mydir/one.jpg does not work either. Earlier I used to throw things at my server and get jpegs from there. But for testing purposes I need these images locally available.

Any Idea?

Answer 1

Just solved it Use loadImage("media\ears.jpg"); double slash instead to single and it works :)

Answer 2

For security reasons flash files can access only web or only local files, with can be set in the project properties. If you want to build a web application like a webpage or just a part of a webpage, than you should choose network only, but this way you can test your work only on a webserver (that can be localhost too ). If you want to build a desktop application, witch has no relation to web, then select the "local only" option in your project properties.
