| Issue 344: | If swf can't be found using embedSWF, allow to show an error, show alt content | |
| 4 people starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Change the first parm in embedSWF to a swf that failed loading (e.g. blah.swf") 2. Typically this would not be done, but when hosting swf files on different server and this parm is dynamically driven from another process, sometimes path may not exist so want to show an error What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Since swf failed loading would expect to see alternate content. Also when callback is setup in embedSWF, e.success should return false. Currently e.success returns true even with path to invalid swf. Only way I could get to return false is to put empty string for path. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? swfobject 2.2, Windows XP SP3, IE 7 Please provide any additional information below. |

Just to let you know that this is important for me too. I help maintain a site from within a Third Level Educational Institution where staff and students access the web from behind a proxy. Access to any site other than our own (which is publicly accessible/not an intranet) requires authentication. When I view a YouTube video, in a page from our site, that was embedded the using the Dynamic Publishing method, I am asked for authentication. If authenticated the video shows. If not I get nothing, which is unexpected. |

Having same problem. I had hoped that the callback facility would let us replace our existing scheme that starts a timer and if it doesn't get an external call from the loaded swf in 10 secs, fires an error routine. |
