Does anyone have resources for how to dynamicly load a flash file. For instance, instead of filling in file=video.flv in the code, i want the URL to tell the player what file to load. so or something of that nature. So that i dont have to edit the code every time i want to show a file.
 
Depends on what server side language you are using. It can be as simple as:

echo $_GET['urlparam'];

in PHP.

Or if you want to keep it client side, you will need Javascript and as such falls out of the scope of this Forum.
Google may be helpful there:
Javascript URL querystring

Or you can try the JS forum here: forum216

Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.
 
forum434 then.
