I am trying to add a flash to a Text/HTML module.  The one without XML works fine, but when I add one with XML, it cannot find the XML file.  The XML folder is located in the folder with the swf file (as the developer recommended) but DNN is looking for it in the page.  How do I chenge where DNN is looking for the XML file or how do I locate the file whnere DNN is looking or How else would I do this?  Is a different module a better choice?

I tried locating it outside DNN and using the Iframe module.  That works for the flash, but the links in the flash only open up in the Iframe module, which is not what I want.  I appreciate any help.

Hi,

How about passing a variable to your swf with the URL to the xml file? 

Thanks,

Mike

Thanks Mike,

I didn't author the swf and don't have the ability to edit it.

Where would I put this path?  I don't see any path in the xml ot html file that  came with the flash and I don't have the ability to edit the falsh file itself.
