Flash + XML , accessing by external web page
I am writing a real time weather display in Flash. The flash will read a XML file (the XML file is generate by PHP) and display it. It done and work well in the same server.
Now I want this flash could be use by other website. But when I insert the object into other webpage, it seem can't read the XML file.
Does anyone have the some problem and how to fix it?
PS:The file location of the files:
Server A: contain weather.swf: http://myweb.polyu.edu.hk/~etleo/weather.swf
Server B: the HTML page embedded flash object: http://e3learning.edc.polyu.edu.hk/temp/weather.html

Are you using an absolute path for the xml?
