Hello,
I first posted this in the HTML forums, but I was wandering if anyone has tried this:

Here is ultimately what I am trying to accomplish: Web server holds the swf player component, but i want the flv file to reside on local machines for playback.

here is the web server's html:
Code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="350"

wmode="transparent" data="flvplayer.swf?file=C:/sample.flv&autoStart=false">

<param name="movie" value="flvplayer.swf?file=C:/sample.flv&autoStart=false" />

<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />

so when a computer (that has the flv file on their c:/ drive) opens up the webpage, it will play it.

is this possible?

Thanks for reading and any input you provide
-Jared
