Redirect after flash, without flash?

hey all, well if you can understand this then im glad .

Basically for my site i want to link to a .swf movie then redirect to a movie file.

I know how to do this in flash, but dont want to create loads of files as it takes up 2 much space and time.

For examplae what im wanting to do is in a url, point it to the flash movie, then once its over to change to the movie file for example the flash file can be called: "flash.swf" and the movie file "movie.mvi"

And before you say why dont you just create a new page with the redirect in the meta tag, thats not what i want to do.

All i want is to do this in 1 url without having to do any extra work for each movie file.

hope someone can help

anyone able to help?

sure, you could pass your .swf the url of the movie that you want in the url string:



and then in your flash movie:



is that what you want to do?

-bret

kind of i gess, but i dont want to create a flashmovie per movie, for example if the 2nds called "newmovie.mvi" i dont want to change information in the flash file

for example:

<A href="flash.swf?movie=movie.mvi">link</a>

and

<A href="flash.swf?movie=newmovie.mvi">link2</a>

so i save space

that's exactly what it would do.

Because you are passing in "movie" as a variable in the url string, it an open whatever movie you tell it to

aha thanks, get it now hehe im so thick :S
