Thanks Aran for your help on this. The only change I had to make to
your code was putting quotes around the values and it worked like a
charm.<br>

A few things.

1. The below are all parameters, not variables

so.addVariable("allowScriptAccess", "always");
so.addVariable("movie", "<?=$ray_dir?>ray_chat_loader.swf");
so.addVariable("quality", "high");
so.addVariable("wmode", "transparent");
so.addVariable("base",

  </blockquote>
  <pre wrap=""><!---->'])?>/");

The should be added like the below:

so.addParameter("allowScriptAccess", "always");

*** BTW you don't need movie param, as this is already created for you in
your swf constructor call. ***


2. FlashVars is one variable with "&" delimited values in normal embedd, but
in swfObject you pass name value pairs seperately (it constructs the
flashVars for you from the pairs). So the vars you want to add would be
something like:

so.addVariable("ID", <?=$ID?>);
so.addVariable("NickName", <?=$NickName?>);
so.addVariable("url", <?=$ray_xml?>);
so.addVariable("lang_url", <?=$ray_lang?>);


Cheers,
Aran

Subject: [SWFObject] Getting connection errors with my flash 
chat program

I can't get SWFObject to work with my flash-based chat 
program. Here's the original working code:

<object classid=<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000">"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"</a>

name="movie" value="<?=$ray_dir?>ray_chat_loader.swf" /> 
<param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="wmode"

And here's the new code with SWFObject:

        <script type="text/javascript">
          var so = new SWFObject("<?=$ray_dir?>ray_chat_loader.swf",
"ray_chat", "730", "515", "8", "#ffffff");
          so.addVariable("allowScriptAccess", "always");
          so.addVariable("movie", "<?=$ray_dir?>ray_chat_loader.swf");
          so.addVariable("quality", "high");
          so.addVariable("wmode", "transparent");
          so.addVariable("base",
"<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://">http://</a><?=$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME
    </pre>
  </blockquote>
  <pre wrap=""><!---->'])?>/");
  </pre>
  <blockquote type="cite">
    <pre wrap="">         so.addVariable("FlashVars",
"ID=<?=$ID?>&NickName=<?=$NickName?>&url=<?=$ray_xml?>&lang_ur
    </pre>
  </blockquote>
  <pre wrap=""><!---->l=<?=$ray_lang?>"); 
  </pre>
  <blockquote type="cite">
    <pre wrap="">          so.write("flashcontent");
        </script>

The script loads up, but I get a connection error with my 
chat server. 
I've experimented with adding "getQueryParamValue" to the 
"base" and "FlashVars" variables, but that didn't work.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

John
