I have a houghe problem including Flash Movies (swf) into Livelink.

I'm using a Livelink, that parses every known link into
a server-relativ path. This works almost everytime.
Only one thing doesnt work:

<OBJECT classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000
codeBase= width=120
height=60>

<PARAM NAME="movie" VALUE="
<------ link is not changed to server-relative!!! What do I need to add to the parser.xml to let it change the path to server-relative???


<PARAM NAME="quality" VALUE="high">


<embed src="/path/path/Editor_Megaphon_120.swf"
<------ This change does work propably, after adding the following entry to parser.xml:

<pattern5 name="tbicp">
<p1>"&lt;embed"</p1>
<p2>"src="</p2>
</pattern5>



width="120" height="60" quality="high"
pluginspage="type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>
</OBJECT>


Further I'd like to know in what case the changes of the parser.xml are noticed from LL:

Do I have to:

- just replace the parser.xml?
- restart the LL system?
- to redeploy everything?

So the parser.xml is still a little myth for me.

Brought to the point:

I need to embed Flash Movies and the paths given have to change to server-relative.
 
Can you provide some more information on what your issue is and what does not work for you ? Are you including this as a Livelink object or part of a CustomView / Appearance ?

The swf object is includet as "other" object into livelink.
So the URLs inside the <object> and <embed> Tags has to be parsed to a productive link.

These links usually are server relative, if the parser.xml knows the right parameters.

Somehow theres a part (as mentioned above) in the parser.xml we could include with success:

<pattern5 name="tbicp">
<p1>"&lt;embed"</p1>
<p2>"src="</p2>
</pattern5>

This code parses the URL given after the <embed src="this link then is parsed right."

But what pattern to I have to set for the
<PARAM NAME="movie" VALUE="
If the tag would be <PARAM VALUE="link", the pattern would be easy:


<pattern23 name="tbicp">
<p1>"&lt;PARAM"</p1>
<p2>"VALUE="</p2>
</pattern23>

This is not possible in this case, because after the <PARAM> Tag there is another VALUE between ... and this I dont know how to go around.

I hope its more clear now what I want.
