Embedded SWF doesn't load local json

[JoaoCesar]

Hi there!

I have a SWF file that reads data from a JSON file located in a child folder called 'data'.

Everything works fine when I run the SWF from within Animate IDE or when I run the exported SWF.

But when the SWF is running from the HTML created by Animate itself, the SWF isn't able to read any data from the JSON file.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks!

your path should be relative to the html file, not the swf.

[JoaoCesar]

Thanks for the answer.

But both the SWF and the HTML files are located within the same folder.

post a link to your embedding url.

Hi there! I made an image so it's better to understand.

All files are offline in my hard drive. I need to send the .html for my client for approval.

And it's funny because I'm loading external MP3 files and they run normally.

try:

"./data/quiz.json"

[JoaoCesar]

It didn't work.

I don't understand how it can load the mp3 files but it can't load the json files.

Somebody else?

I really need to solve this ASAP.

[kglad]

what makes you think it's not loading?

[JoaoCesar]

Because there's a quiz game that doesn't show the questions when I run the SWF embbed but when I run the SWF alone the quiz works normally.

upload your files to a file server and post the url to the embedding html.

[JoaoCesar]

That's it!

When I tried to run the .html from an online server, everything worked!

Thanks a lot!!!
