[SOLVED] I'm lost :( loading flash content over a submitted URL

[jonnyw]

Hi all,

 

I hope somebody might be able to help me. I have a client who's directed me at this site:

 

http://www.websitetalkingheads.com/

 

I've done my best here (well, a php-friendly guy I know has..)

 

http://scusiciao.com/testing/get.php    (souce here: http://scusiciao.com/kops.zip)

 

The problem I have is while it works fine with the demo presenters from this websitetalkingheads site, all I have is a load of flv files from the client.  I can't get them to work at all. If you head to the URL above and select 'charlie', I've tried linking direcrly tot he flv but no joy. Since I don't know the original output settings of these flv files I'm trying to load over the submitted page, the flash versions are messed up and when I run the form, I keep getting prompted to download flash player.

 

Do I need to embed these flv fiels of presenters I have and plonk them into a swf file and then load that swf file from the form, rather than link directly to the flv?

 

I'm tearing my hair out over this - I thought I'd be able to work it out easily from the numerous pages out there that offer the same service but there don't seem to be any resources online that point me at creating a form to load flash content over a submitted URL.

 

Any help greatly appreciated and I'm aware what I wrote above probably doesn't make too much sense!

 

Jonny.
