hello everyone,
can anyone tell me how to get the url of the page in swf file?

i mean if you want to get the url of the swf file then you put:

trace (_root._url)
-----------------------------------------
in output panel it comes like:
C:/folder/main.swf
or in website it says
http://www.yoursitename.com/main.swf

but how we get the url of the page?
like if i have a php code like:
www.site.com/main.php?002145872images

how can i get that url in flash?
i mean how i get the url like
www.site.com/main.php?002145872images
rather than:
www.site.com/main.swf

Hello.

As I know flash cannot detect the HTML address of the web page.
One way would be to retrieve the URL by PHP code and then pass it to the swf file, like this:

main.swf?page_url=http://site.com<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];?>

Then inside your flash file you will have a variable "page_url" that will be the address of the page containing your swf file.

I hope this helps, it can probably be done by JavaScript too.

The code gets writtena fter each path to the swf file, normally it is only in 2 locations (2nd and 3rd) but your code has a javascript fix for an Internet Explorer issue, so there is that first location, note that in first location it doesn't have the .swf, it is correct like that, it is not a typo.

Good luck.
