php, xml and flash

[bob369]

Hi,

 

i was strucked with a problem.

i have a video with captioning. video is a flash file and captioning is in XML file

they are working really fine.

now what the problem is::  I am getting the path of xml file through php as well as video(flv) file path through php. the video works well

but the xml file path which i got through php( from database) is not working. the captioning part (xml file) is not working now only the video is displayed...

could anyone please help me to get out this situation..is the problem with php and xml or php,xml and flash

 

thanks in advance..

Try typing in the path by hand to make sure that the xml file exists. Assuming it does, post the part of your code that looks for the xml file and we'll take a look at it.

i typed the path manually .. it is executing perfect.

now the problem is just i got the path from the database and placing it in the <object> tag in HTML.

You have a lot of whitespace in there... I'm not sure, but this could be a problem. Try gluing it all together, like so:

<embed src="ccPlayer.swf?ccEmbeddedCaptions=false&ccVideoName=<?php echo $video_array[$value]; ?>&ccCaptionFilename=<?php echo $xml_value; ?>
